The performance is clean; that is, there
is nothing "dirty" or "smutty," though a
couple of remarks are "spicy" and a
couple of costumes decidedly so.
"Follies of the Moulin Rouge." Includes Pardue's "Eight English Roses,"; Dorothy Hayden, contortionist; Charles Howard, a Hebrew act; Henry P. Nelson, a Dutchman; Bert Chapman (or Capman), a "cissy,"; Sammie Brown is one of the two
straights"; John B. Wilson is the other. The three principal women are Ida
Emerson, Jennie Austin and Corinne La
Monde. Ida Emerson sings "Rings on My Fingers" and earned two encores. Miss Emerson and Mr. Wilson sang
Eddie Leonard's "Bo-Loo Eyes." Howard has a number, "You Should See
That Dance." and much of his 'business"
from last year.
