ROlCLand Blackstone
Gains Real Fame
As a GrdUedigger

without Rowland Blackstone, the
f. H. Sothern and Julia Marlowe
company. would be as incomplete as
Hamlet without Hamlet.
In all the stage successes in which
f. H. Sothern has appeared Buck
stone has had his share, from the
.Dyceum days in Lord Chumley,
THE Master OF woodbarrow," THE
Dancing Girl" The Prisoner Of
Zenda," Richard Lovelace" and The
Sunken Bell" to the Shakespearean
repertoire which Mr.. Sothern and his
wife. Julia Marlowe, have presented
in later years. Blackstone no doubt
hold, the stage record for having
acted the first gravedigger in Ham
let" more times than any other COM
edian. He first played this character
when E. H Sothern produced the
tragedy in 1900 and he has had the
role every time Mr.. Sothern has
acted the Danish prince, which runs
well into the thousands of perfor-
mances.
An evidence of the regard and az
lection existing between these two
players is the incident of last spring
when Mr.. Sothern, who was then
assembling MS company lOr iis pres
ent tour, met Blackstone one day and
casually remarked that as The
Merchant of Venice" was to be added
to the repertoire this year, Buck
stone would have to begin brushing
up his memory Of the lines Of
Launcelot Gobbo.
Puckstone. somewhat embarrassed.
said that he was not sure that he
would be able to be with Mr.. Sothern,
as Mr.. Belasco, in whose production
of "Deburau'' he was then appearing,
always insisted that his New York
casts go intact on the road. Mr..
Belasco at that time had not
decided to abandon road tour
of 'Deburau." Mr.. Sothern replied
that while he did not want to inter
fere with Mr.. Belasco's plans, there
surely must be some way to get out
of the difficulty, as he must have
Buck stone with him. The matter was
amicably&errsnged with Mr.. Belasco.

DO you know that Jules Querin,

He speaks, paints and sings in
color. He says 'Colors can talk. I
have heard them, and some of the
things they say are not in the least
polite There is red-why. red can
swear like trooper, and does it,
too, every once in a while. Blue
talks like saint, and pink-well,
II you can look at pink on a bright
June morning and not hear what
1t is trying to say to YOU. you are
stone deaf, that's all. Orange makes
you spend money, while purple
makes you tight" CoIors are living
things-they speak. they sing. they
cry. l believe l could commit murder
and be glad of it if 1 lived too long
with certain colors. All you have
TO do Is to go into the country and
see nature in all It's resplendence of
color and you will realize how much

of life and its laws"
