 One of the important features of a minstrel show is the always welcome monologue, when it is good. With De- Rue Bros. Ideal Minstrels the mono- logue by Billy DeRue is one of the best acts.

It is from his ease of deliverance that he was justly named 'talkative man." Railways has a large collection of up-to- date jokes and songs, many of which are his own composition. A large pub fishing house in New York City recent ly made arrangements for Billy to write special songs and jokes, and some of his productions are the comedy hits of the season.
