The Philadelphia Ledger says: 1.-THE
farce of Hello BILL was presented at
the Auditorium and was fully enjoyed
by the large audience. The piece is
full of merriment and while the plot
is slight, the action is lively, all the
characters being well balanced and ap-
parently determined to do their best to
win success. The adventures of Will
liam Fuller, who wishes to conceal his
identity with the man who is caught in
raid in a gambling house from his
intended bride, aided by the good-na-
tured efforts of a meddlesome friend
who fixes things" by telling different
stories about the affair and prompts
his friend to carry out his suggestions,
leads to all manner of funny compli-
cations, in which all parties are in
volved, and which are not explained
away until the close of the last act,
when the curtain is rung down amid
shouts of laughter. Charles P. Morri-
son capably sustains the principal part,
and is ably supported by the other
members of the company"
