The original Johnson of Cole & Johnson. Street in one, 15 min. Johnson was accorded the biggest reception of the day, but he hardly got by with his first two songs. However, the third song: ‘I’m Working for the Government Now,’ was funny and pleased the audience mightily, with the result that he earned a recall. We may have to move him up, but it is possible he will get by in this place on the bill.
