Not an inconsiderable part of new fun
for a wheel-comedian is that obtained by
Mr. Campbell from a step-ladder during
his maneuvers on it, man and feet-hauling
a stage hand. And Glory Be, Campbell
is another who has found something
different to do with the chair he jumps
over with and lands on. Instead of seating
himself on it. When landing, Mr. Campbell
is standing upon it. Everyone in the
house knew the old trick so thoroughly,
the new was recognized and applauded at
once.
The comedian
is Campbell, formerly of Campbell and
Johnson.
The laughs And the applause gained
by Campbell and. Barber Monday evening
placed them in the "standard comedy act"
class without a question.
