Humorous, dramatic. tragic
and wholly interesting, "Pudd'n-
head Wilson," with Theodore

negro and murderer he startled
the town, convicted the real ne
gro, made a name for himself
and united two happy lovers. He
did not live in vain after all.

cipal role and the production is an
elaborate one. The Kleine travel
