FOURTH GIVES A STAG
The Entertainment Marred by
the Antics Of Several Loaf
ers-The Programme.

The Fourth Regiment held a stag at
the Arrnory on Saturday night. The
doors were opened at half-past seven,
but long before that hour a line mad
been formed which reached almost to
Montgomery street. 1t was after eight
o'clock before the last Of the line had en-
tered the Armory. When all had been
seated the con- nlittee in charge calculated
that 2,000 persons were present. If this
was true the stag was more a financial
success than either of the previous ones.
The performers were good and were APP
preciated by most of the audience. There
were a few banded together under an in
distinct title who made themselves OBJ
Tsoxious. It was st one time supposed
and hoped that the "Gazinks,' had gone
out of existence, but they blossomed out
on Saturday night in a vain effort to
uphold their old time reputation as dis
turbers and succeeded In winning the
Kisses of the audience.
h Fitzgibbons Trio opened the enter
tainment with a musical sketch, after
which the three appeared in s'sojer cos
and went through q 3augnable drill.

OF the best exhibitions of the stag. His
juggling was of the cleyerest and the
applause he received showed that he was

Henry N. Morgan, Jr., a Jersey City
boy, sang several solos in a finished man
ner. Mr.. Morgan IS well known as a
singer of merit, and his reputation was
upheld on Saturday night. When the
name of Elineor Faik was announced the
"Gazinks" at once began their ear-spIit-
ting and unintelligible cry, but We're
quoted by the Kisses of the audience,
who had grown Disguised with their an
tics. Miss Fa1k sang d Japanese lullaby.
and then left the stage only to raappear
In short skirts, and went through several
movements after the fashion of a dance.
Elineor was not recalled
The Rogers Brothers next appeared in a
German sketch. One of the brothers was
forced to ask the "Gazinks'' to desist be-
fore they could go on, That body finally
kept quiet long enough for the Rogers
Brothers to so on with their act.
Lily Laurel next appeared and sang an.
original song, entitled Hugh Ntzhugh,
which was composed of an amusing va
riety of "yous and Hsighs'' that would
bewilder one She proved a ~favorite end
was recalled, when she sang my Hign
Born Gal" The audience Joined in the
chorus.
The Casino Comedy Four ended the pre-
granlme. They had a l~aughabie skit IN
which hey sang seyeral selections As
manner which won the audience.
The stag was taken In all q success, and
but for the antics of the "Gaxinks," all
would have gone smoothly.
The committee In charge consisted Of
