"Dublin Bay."
Tom Barnes has some new matter and patter. He is trying to sell a magazine now to Bessie Crawford, but Bessie hasn't time to read, because she must keep in training to jump upon the table at the finish in the parlor set to sing "Dublin Bay." That jumping-up stuff is real chicken business. Barnes seats himself beside her to tell in story all about every drink one can think of. It's rather good the way he has put them together and it's new. Besides which Barnes has some new stories and also a kidding encore, saying he must kill two minutes, but won't work, just hang around. He and Miss Crawford start playing "tag," and as Miss Crawford tags Barnes he goes into the audience and tags someone there. He also carried the musket into the orchestra. It was 25 minutes for the couple with 20 minutes of laughs.
