Robinson bas been sufferlnj for some time with throat trouble, so thai he baa barely been able to cootlnoo with h» role in the Crusoe Girls. Specialise hare succeeded In restoring bla voire. but Charlie, who Is neter known to be Incapaci- tated through Illness, says it was a close call. May New Ward (Mrs. Oaas. Robinson) cannot resist the lore of footlights, and will join the Crusoe Girls Co., at New York, before the show lecrca for its Western trip. May sayi Rockawaj- may be all right In Summer, but not In Winter. May Bernhardt and Mabel Lee are now dolus a sister act In the olio. Botb possess good voices and attractlie peraotullllcs, and know bow to pot sll of their songs over to several encores. The let it Ida Emerson and Harry Hills, enti- tled "The Suffragette Letter Carrier and the Parcel Post Mib," la a decided novelty, and well Uked by burlesque aodlenoes. These clever performers never fall to lend class and refinement to any bill. This is their third season "lth the Crusoe Girls. Lew Spooler la now in his fourth season as mu- sical director with Cntsoe Girls. Lew takes great Interest in his work, and has followed burlesque for man; seasons. The Four Dancing Harmonists are new to bur- lesque. They are exceptionally good dancers as well are harmonists, and their olio act with the Crusoe Girls meets with much success. Earn Robinson, mnoater of the Orusoe Girls, bas a record worthy of mention, having been a burlesque manager tor more than twenty-five years. There are few la the business who do not enjoy Barn's acquaintance. Dolly Edwards has disposed of ber theatrical botel at Providence, and Is again to be seen with the Crusoe Girls. Eunice Podl, for many seasons an attractive show girl with the Crusoe Girls, la not trooping this season, bat Is conducting a rooming bouse for the profession on Forty-sixth Street, near Eroadway. e NOTES PROM MISCHIEF MAKERS. Jean Bedlnl's MIscblef Makers opened to two packed houses, at the Oadlllac, Detroit, and the good business kept op all last week, notwithstand- ing the fact that the State Fair hurt business at some of the theatres. Mr. Bedlnl bas put together a show which is certainly a credit to Use new Progressive wheel. No better working or better looking chorus la to be found on either wheel, and to say the cos- rumkE Is beautiful would he putting It mildly. The show Is replete nth clean comedy, handled effectively by Jean Bedlnl. Senator Francis Mur- phy, Tommy Carter and Jlmmle Cooper. Tits feature act with the MIscblef Makers, "My Lady's Fan," la being frequently commented upon as the most expensive and classiest act In bur- esqoe, and the andleocea are receiving the act with great favor. Lottie Lee. Marie Everett, Edith Warwick. Oorlnne Bennett do lbs posing, nnd they do it to perfection. The roller skating number at the Bnsle of tho Mischief Makers Is admirably led by Helen Lor- raine. Miss Lorraine Is a finished srtlst on the rollers, and her fancy dancing holds the attention of the audience all the time she Is on. Charlie Dobson is piloting the show, and la one of the old-timers. A valuable man Is Charlie, with always the interests of the show In mind. A hard working sjhI clever aoabrette Is Saille Fields, with the Mischief Makers With her own Inimitable rendition of "Melody Man" and "Toil Made Me Love Yen," she frequently stops the show. Senator Francis VTurphy gets many laughs out of Ms monologue, "Political Topics of the Day," an set somewhat similar to the one formerly done by Ibe late Cliff Gordon ■ FOLLIES OF PLEASUR E CLEANS PP. The Follies of Pleasure continues to clean up over the Progressive circuit. The show opened Anf. 25, at the Cadillac, Detroit and played to camelry bi'dnees the following week, at the Star, Toronto, Can. Fair week was a record, and a "sell-out" was recorded at every performance. Week of Sept. 13, at the Garden, Buffalo, tho Bernstein show hung up the 8. R. O. sign nighty. Tbe report on the stow is that It Is one of the hett burlesques ever pat over tbe boards. a i BLVOH COOPER TO RETIRE. Blnch Cooper, the well known comedian, who tins made theatregoers laugh for over twenty-six years, will retire from the stage at the dose of tbe coming season. Bluch's holdings In the Co- lumbia Amusement Oompany compel htm to remain in New York and look after his Interests. At the present time. Beauty, Youth and Fully and the Rosetand Girls are making a tremendous hit, awl next season he will add another show to his string, namely, the Globe Trotters.
