He is an excellent interpreter; in fact, his work might be called highly artistic dramatic readings done in song." The Salt Lake Tribune of thejsame date stated: "Mr. Althou so sianrlK in the front rank and is alt the very top in super.foritylof diction. In two groups of English jsones he ran the gamut of human; emo tions, from blithesome joy fb the poignancy of despairing spirit and J broken heart. eachr rendition b- ing given an individualistic .color mat demonstrated the artist in both soul and experience." f Stilt Much I"icni)tj n'Bt , MARSH FIELD, Feb. 9.-lt'oos Bay unemployment situation!, des cribed as acute for' two months, has not been abated by the 4"tion of the C.
