Georgie Mack takes the part formerly played by Geo. M. Cohan, and Mr. Mack is keeping away from aping the Cohan, Jr., with credit to himself. Rosie Green is in the fourth and last role.
At the Grand on Monday afternoon and evening last the two principal received an ovation both before and after the sketch. Flowers banked up the entire back of the stage at night, brought there by a corps of ushers from the lobby, where they had been on view during the day.
Mr. Cohan's "Popularity" must have been written with his parents in mind. They tested and proved the word in Brooklyn, and have just cause to be proud of their reception. As for the sketch itself it is running too long and should be chopped down.
