BREEZABOO BARRED
Eddie foy & Co Leave The Elton
With Their Dog.

That sign Will surely nave ID
GOMEZ There is no getting away
from the fact that something must
be done at The Elton or Harry
Parsons, manager Of Polls theater,
will have to book Uncle Toms Cabin
and similar productions for the en-
tire season.
Look at this-E. Foy, the Orchid
man, and twenty-five members OF his
company went to The Elton yester-
day but stayed only for moment
and then gave orders to be carried
to The Connecticut. And 1t was all
because of another little dog. 1t
was a sequel to the "Pinky, Panky
Poo and limbo story" 1t was one
of those pretty, cute looking, you
know those dear, dear bull dogs, and
is said to have been owned by a
Miss Ruth Dean, although her name
is not on Mr. Foy's programme. Miss
Elsie Janis, careless girl, had for
gotten to send word to Miss Dean
that in dreadful Waterbury there is
an ironclad rule which says that no
dogs shall be allowed in the hotel
rooms Of The Elton. Verify Miss
Janis should not, have been forget
full.
When the 1853 train pulled into
the Bank street station yesterday
afternoon the cabbies were right on
to their job. When Jack" Coleman
spied his old friend, e. Foy, he
shouted, Hello, there, Ed, jump
into my flyaway.' Foy had evident
ly forgotten Jack" but that did not
matter. OF course E. Foy was going
to The Elton as were the other mem
bers of his company.
1t was all right for them to go TO
hotel but the man who sent THE
Orchid" on the road should be CON-
PEELED to sleep in barn.
q. d. Foy and the other members
of the company felt mysterious
feeling coming over them as they
passed the Welton fountain. I'VE
must have come into strange eli
mate" one of them remarked. A
moment later and they were at the
doors of The Elton. All entered,
including Foy and the dog. Miss
Dean was leading her pet with an at
tractive looking chain. Pardon my
forgetting to mention the dogs
name. 1t was "Breezaboo." The
prophets do not say wheth-
er it has any pedigree and whether
in any way it is related to "Pinky
Panky Poo or limbo" 1t is
thought that the dog was named by
an agency in New York which sup
plies the names for dogs-and ac-
| tresses.
Well, Foy had just paid the hack
man and Mr. Coleman was departing
when the attention of the comedian
was attracted to a. scene between a
bell boy and Miss Dean. 1t is said
| it was a bell boy who read the dog
rule yesterday. They have all men,
orized it by this time. One of them
had even given Dog Warden Trask
tip to be on hand; he might earn
FIVE spot. .-E. &c..
| Well, when Foy heard that
"Breezaboo" was to be ostracisetl
from the hotel rooms, he showed his
chlvalry by stating if Miss Deans
companion, "Breezaboo," could not
| go to a hotel room, that the company
would shake bye-bye to The Elton.
And they did. II was indeed a happy
day for John Stayaround Coleman,
for it meant another little job, a
drive to the Connecticut. The other
cabbies also raked in few extra
! shekels. Foy, Miss Dean, the dog,
or the other members of the COM
pany (no offense is meant by thisl
were not at all fused by the incl
dent, but one of the male members
was heard to calculate That must
be a helluva hotel"
After the incident between Miss
! Elsie Janis. her dog 'Zimbo," and
the man who bounces the dogs at
| The Futon, the writer suggested that
a sign mo Dogs Allowed in the
Hotel Rooms-Take Them Below
With the Rest of the Animals" be
printed and hung in a conspicuous
place in The Elton. Or IL might be
better to place 1t on some signpost
near the station. Then theatrical
folks who carry pets would know
where their childlike dogs would bc
received with hospitality.
! A man who can interpret the Ian
guage of dogs said while he wa
standing near the green this morn
ing a couple of purps-they were
pets, only they had not been washed
lately-came along. One of then
remarked to the other as he looked
az The Elton:
That's the place from which We
are barred. At least they say We
are excluded. Still think IL a good
live dog tried to get in he would gel
by. Those so-called dogs that hav,
been bounced are simply apologies
for the real members OF our family
c. II. Cables, who is to have a new
hotel on Harrison avenue. could no
be found to-day to answer the CUES
ton as to whether he was to have
a special suite of rooms for dogs
His hotel will be most popular witt
actor folk in all probability, as i
1 will have no bar.
