"The Rajah's Ruby."
Henry Stanford, Lura Burt and Co. offered a detective sketch which may or may not be entitled "The Rajah's Ruby." The sketch is just about three or four years behind the time for vaudeville, even though it is most capably played by a cast of real actors. There are five in the playlet, all three of the supporting parts being male roles. One is that of a police commissioner, a crook and a detective. Then there is an English nobleman and Miss Burt in the role of the sister to the police commissioner. The plot of the piece is old fashioned in the manner in which it is worked out for vaudeville audiences.
