THE COLUMBIA.

aThe House Next Door"
Last night at the Columbia proved al
least two thinEs-nrstly. that a stock
audience" likes q dash Of the serious in
its humorous farce Just IS they like a
soupcon Of humor IN its serious fsod.
and, secondly that IN Stanley James the
Columbia Players are possessed with a
sterling stock actor, ready TO step into
'old mems roles" and deliver them with
finish and grace which would do credit
to a player who has had weeks in which
TO prepare and rehearse his role.

previous visits to this city. ]. z. Dod-
son In the role Of Sir John Cotswold.
Mr. Dodson, in his Characterization OF the
testy baronet was AFFORDED an opportu-
mty to display all that was In him, and
the result was that 50 audiences were
treated to one Of the best interpreta-
tons OF this kind Of a role seen here
for many years.
Last night Stanley James, who Is usu-
ally relegated to one OF the minor parts
came into his own, and delivered the
typically Dodsonish role in a manner
which warranted its comparison with
the original. Only those who had the
pleasure Of seeing Mr.. Dodson's Sir
John know how much OF q compliment
this is TO Mr.. James ability, with the
added clause that he had but the short
space Of a week in which to rehearse
and learn his part
The House Next Door Is typicaIIy
a comedy Of manner" no pun in
tended. It shows the change Of mind
which takes place in an old bsronet
when he finds that his son and daughter
have fallen in love, respectively. with
the daughter and son Of a self-made
Jewish baronet next door. How his
pretudices against the Hebrew race are
broken down, one by one, by the high
mindedness and generosity OF his neigh
Dor and how. in the end, he gives in
and goes 10 visit at the house next
door"
The role Of Sir John Cotswold is
the" part in the comedy. During all
the first and third and for goodly half
Of the second Mr.. James holds the
stage, and not ior a moment did he lose
his grip on his audience nor did he make
that small slip which would have been
fatal TO true characterization.
The only other role Of prominence in
the piece, that OF Sir Isaac Jacobson,
NJ. P falls TO the lot OF George Bar
bier, who contributes one Of his Gus
tomary excellent interpretations, while
Millard Robertson does a noteworthy bit
Of work as Lewis, the musical agent
Godfrey Matthews played the younger
Cotswold and J. Hammond Daley the
younger jacobson.
The feminine roles, while overshad-
owed by the male, produced an excellent
character bit by Miss Julia Blanc as
Lady Jacobson, while Miss Heuings Ul-
r!ca Cotswold was delightful in its SIM
plicity. Miss Nelson was Esther Jacob

F. H. Btgood Disoontinues Valuable
Service After Twelve Years.

+. z. Bitgcod announced Monday
that beginning with that day the dis
tribution of weather forecasts would
be discontinued. This service has been
maintained by the Bitgood store since
October l. 1899 and is now discon-
tinued because of the fact that many
of the forecast cards to persons in
outlying districts do not reach them
over the r. F. D. routes until the
day after issue and are therefore val
ueless. In accord with the above,
the telegraph weather reports and dis
play of weather flags are also dis
continued, but the daily meteorOlogi-
cal records will continue to be kept
as in the past. Those interested in
the weather predictions may secure
the forecasts by calling for '1nfor-
nation" at the central telephone sta
ton, where reports are received every
day.
