James Thornton was afflicted with a severe cold on Monday that made it impossible for him to sing, but he explained that he insisted upon appearing lest rumor should do him the usual injustice. The Hammerstein audience—the Monday night regulars—came loyally to his support and ho did extremely well with his familiar monologue.
