Har- ris trotted out Ma hormonlBts nnd "> "Il linois Battleship March," a we»- consTlfflW the heat, was noticed. The curtain rose on twelve, showgirls In the lntcst style dresses, grouped about the parlors ot the OberdCTleT Blverslde Drire residence. Then came the elifht ponies in brief dresses and long kicks, oersplrlng, but smiling, nil Joining In a nl» medley, wfih Miss NlcoT and Ones. Bogard doing some duetlng. On his nrst visit, Mr. Bo- turd ovldently forgot hl« make-up as Lord Algy. Johnnie Weber got his reception, when he en- tered dirty faced, with hts mouth full of wed- ding cake, giving forth his well-known battle cry for "papa," Louis Tblel waa a great Dutch pop, and carried the role nicely all the way. Mlckle HcCabe, In Irish, Oiled the fill, and kept well within the bounds ot legitimate comedy. Virginia Kelsey, blonde and stately, came on with a dash as the traveling flirt, and soon had all the men, young and old, at her feet, in the audience as well as on the stage. Oeorge Clayton Frye, bale and husky as Buck, a Fourth Warder, brought some ginger Into the wedding party, also his Qas Bouse Uang, which cave rise to a good "number." Mr. Frye uu- flmbered some novel East Side phrases, but showed the effects of his mingling with society by toning down his noise perceptibly towards the end of his trip and being accepted as a son-lu-law by jiulvmiey. It was Buck's idea to have Oberorfer take .Benny to Beldemrg In order to have his bead examined for any possible contents, which trip formed tb'e plot. In Heidelberg the professors, a trio of wise men In long muslin gowns, gave Hcnny a powder which changed him to an old mau, aa excuse fur jchnule to put on bis stubby gray mustache. Oberdorfer and Mulvsney having been told by the flirt that they are too old, get the professor to change them to boys, and they appear la knee pants and smooth faces. Then, ot course, no- body knows them, nor Henny, and there Is the fun. Clara Stirrsou did well as tbe Obcrilorter's Irish wife, and tho carried the role and dialect without a hitch. She had sotno showy gowns. Miss Nlcoll, a sweet slgcr, made good as Lady Algy, snd Ohas. Bogard assisted her In several* songs, as her new husband. Moo Moron played the souhrctte role of Mag- gie, and Win. iMoran filled la as the butler, as the professor, etc. The numbers Included: "Only a Boy," by Mr. Weber; ".Strolling on tbe Avenue," by the cooks ond tha chambermaids, led by Miss Moran: "The Gas House Oang." a tough number, leu ly Geo, Frye; "The West Point Cndets," with the girls In natty regulation cadet coats, doing n gun drill, led by Miss Kelsey, a stunuer in tights; duets by Miss Nlcoll and Mr. Bogard, slnglug "Last Night" and "You Look Like the Girl I Used to Go to School With," ou the wharf. On brarl ship, tho sailors, led by Miss Htln- •oii, sang "Ship Ahoy;" also a "drunk" song >y Mr. McOsbe and the girls, representing various liquid refreshments. "The Pirate Crew" had tbe {Iris as regulation sen-robbers, headed by Geo. 'rye as a fierce pirate. For the finale on ex- plosion destroyed tho ship, leivlng Hcnny up In a balloou, admiring a group of sea nymphs Moat- ing ou the water. Tho second act showed Heldel- serg University. The students, tu purple, sang. "OCMindbelt" was a stein song, led by Miss Kel- sey I "Just a Plain Little Irish Girl' was sung iy Miss Morao and Mr, Frye. "Summer Lov- tn" was a pretty number by Miss Nlcoll, In green and white, while Hcnny and the Flirt were sjuking love lu the old mill, brought out for tbe cccusion. The girls wore pretty pink suits. "Tho Music Teacher" was led by Johnnie Weber, and lie selected some of the girls, all ot whom wore aprons showing several bars of mu- sic, to slug their lessons. One young lady mudo a bit with her harmonica playing. The Joke automobile made a lot of fun between Weticr and Frye, and was followed by "The Van- •leibilt Out)" number, with the girls in pretty tmnze cloth auto suits. A cabaret scene was Introduced with Wot. and Use Moraa doing the latest style dauees. Two girls did a Bister net, using "Naughty Melody." "Tbe Wild Oats" song was put oa by the four comedians with good effect. "Das Beldelberger Jngcrhaus" was the title of a pretly huntsmen number, with the girls lu showy green shooting sulti, led by Miss Kelsey, and a lively finale brought down the curtain. Benny Harris played us out with "When It's *|iple Blossom Time In ill over. With a few hitches eliminated, the show should be a laughing aud epoctucalar hit.
