The first part, "The Great White
Way," Is full of timely political humor, and the
situations ere again developed in the same
gratifying manner. The
burlesque "The Actor's Club," also retained, is
given a new exterior setting, an improvement. "Love My Lou,"
one of the strongest and most admirable ensemble
numbers, is held over and rendered in the same
effective msnner. "Let Me Sing," a new stage
song, won encores, as did the "Tin Soldiers," interpreted
by Edna Roberts and Patsy Lussier,
two tiny girls as automatons. Also features Murry Livingston as the Italian, Harry Campbell and the Celtic, Margaret Bennett, Florence Bennett did a handsome "Gibson Girl" and "Moonlight" Spanish dance, William Mhony and Harry Campbell did impersonations, Gertie De Milt, Kittie and Fannie Watson danced. Billy
Walsh, Frank E. Lynch and Leah Starr presented
"Huckin's Run," still the best of the rural dramatic
acts. Fred Tracy and Maude Carter appeared in character songs, and Brady and Mahoney offered their
novel conversational skit, "The Hebrew Fireman
and the Foreman," with new ejaculations.
The
show, although it played the circuit last season
in the same form, has lost none of its interest
and good qualities.
