‘His Wife’s Picture.’ 20 min. FS, 2 shows. On at 8:52. For a twenty-minutes sketch there is lots of dash and interest in this act, although Mr. Corrigan’s male support could be a little stronger, Miss Augusta True gives the star a good assistance being pretty and charmingly costumes. The action turns on a husband’s suspicion that his wife is in the apartments [sic] of a former lover, and the intrigue of the valet-detective to bring about the wife’s conviction of infidelity. There is strong interest in the act and some considerable humor. Corrigan handles the theme with a strong individuality right up to a surprising finish. There were two curtain calls at the close and big hand.
