Mlssn Robson's vehicle for the present season is Richard 1 larding Davis’ play on spirit ualism, "Vera. The Medium.” It is said to be abound in very strong dramatic sit uations as well ns delightful humor and eel characterization. Tho company supporting Miss Robson "'111 measure up to the usual high standard maintained by her managers, Messrs. I.lebler & Co. as they live and has learned to know their manner of thought, the action of their simple, upright souls and minds and hearts. This man is Sir Gilbert Parker and he has put them on paper us they are, and us they have been for genera tions. In his stories of Canadian life he has drawn them with on etcher’s point and made them living, breathing beings. The village of Chandlers, in Parker's "Tlte Right of Way," Is a typical French? Canadian village far from the struggle and turmoil of civilization, where sim plicity. honesty and genuine faith are the principal characteristics of tlte peo- cleurly drawn, is pictured with more fidelity to typo—wftli more compelling force. He Is a type worthy to ho classed with the great characters of fiction. Op posed to 1dm In tlte story la another dis tinct typo—Charley Steelo, brilliant, cynical, a doubter and a drunkard, the gais. No greater contrast is to bo found In literature than these two wonderful, characters, the one loaded down with R rlmitive passions, tho other saturated i civilized vices. In tho play thut Eu- f ;ene W. Prcsbroy has made from Sir ou ter t Parker’s book these two characters stnml out with unwavering fidelity to type and are even.more fascinating and alive than In the novel for Guy Standing and Theodore Roberts, co-stars In the production, have endowed them with tho berath of actual life and have made them real. In their hands Parker’s two great characters live and breathe on the stage.
