The boys work straight, two singing, with the third at the piano. An Irish number gives the act a good start. Soon "coon" songs are sung.
I'm Off to Reno.
The performers were a bit hit. The ragtime piano playing went well. The audience tired instead of clamouring.
This is the type of act that at present is sort of a craze about New York. It has either been brought about the numberless "raggy" songs written lately, or it is the songs that have made this sort of act popular. Edwards, Van, and Tierney are billed as "entertainers." They can go in any house and live up to the billing.
