Jack Morrisey may be an Australian from his conversation, which often dwells upon what the Australians do with whips. He does many of the tricks with different styles. But he has no English accent. He handles lariats and does a bit of Straight fancy shooting with a rifle. His whip work is the most interesting. He does even more of that than the Australians who were here in past years announcing themselves as whip artists only. Comedy is tried for with the assistant (male), but it does not get very far. The talk is little better. The men wear white suits and garters on their shirtsleeves. One could say "out!" for those pink garters in an act of this sort. For any house wanting the turn the act will fit in. Otherwise it is there for three-a-day time.
