“Tony”

Violin playing.

"Tony" is a girl presenting a program of violin selections while garbed as a "boy" of the street waif variety. Her musical efforts carry a lot of flash in manner of execution, and the repertoire leans principally to the classical. She played "I Hear You Calling Me" very well at the opening and followed it with a selection from "Carmen." The latter earned applause. Her closing number was Victor Herbert's "Kiss Me" number, which sent her away nicely. It is an act that will answer for any early spot on the small big timers.
