This old fashioned singing sketch was entirely out of place in this fast moving show, and its slowness suffered much by comparison. It was tolerated at the matinee but got many snickers even from orchestra patrons. At the evening performance some few in the crowded gallery laughed in the wrong place which seemed sufficient excuse for Miss Campbell calling for the curtain. This made a wait in our show and upset one of the best bills of the season. One of her company informed us that this has happened six or seven times and there is no excuse for it.
