Mr. Reese has been waiting for an opportunity to go on the stage past, - and with a promise e from the management of the "Chocolate Soldier Company that he will bo given a leadin role in one of the Whitney companies which leaver New York next year he accepted the offer. Those who were informed did not jearn of his acceptance until a few hours before his departure with the company at 11:45 oclock Saturday nihht, and It is likely that his former pupils who visit his studio during the day will learn that they have been left to other hands. While Mr, Reese has been approach-bthe management of the company with offers during the week, he did not take them seriously until late Saturday afternoon and then notified the management of his change of mind, and in his tryout gt the theatre shortly afterwards he created a very y favorable-impressi- on; HewflTtake" the part of understudy to the hero and the Chocolate Soldier. 7 Since Mr. ReeseTreturned from his trip with the Tabernacle choir be has been associated with Thomas Giles, in a studio in the Templeton building in Salt Lake.
