This is Mr. Wood’s third appearance here and he is giving us exactly the same act in every detail as to songs, music, dancing, facial grimaces, bodily actions, etc. that he did on each of his two previous visits. For this he gets an increased salary. While he received considerable applause I noticed that a very large percentage of the audience was decidedly bored by him. Unless he can make material changes in his act for another season, I would rather see him on my oppositions bill. 10 minutes in one.
