VAUDEVILLE
IN SEWAREN
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

-
Sewaren, Sep. 29:-Well, there Is
certainly some class TO Sewaren, eh,
whati That town was in vaudeville
ferment last Friday evening directly
due to the fact that the perpetrators of
last June's vaudeville, held at Wood
bridge, lowed that the preparation bus
iness was still good, by gum, and gol
darned if they wouldn't try it again,
so they up and went and got the Sc
warren Land and Water Club House,
and bribed pianner player, and cut
up the cussedest you ever did see.
The Throckmortons were the guilt
lest Of all, but il seems that the vau-
deville habit had become contagious
and even Commodore Ballard, against
whom there had never been even a
breath of suspicion, up to the present
affair, had got some of the germs in his
system, and ding bust it if he didn t
swell hisself all up and say right out
in meetin that Hackett and Faver
sham didn't have nothin On him, and
he guessed he could act up if he want
ed to, and he'd like to see anybody
stop him. Well, when they saw he was
that determined about it, his friends
said they would let him act, If he want
ed to, but he must take all the blame
on himself and never, never hold any
body else responsible. So he said he
would, and Irving and Throckomrton
made up, all out of his own head, the
first piece, which he called, can Even
ing at the Commodore s." In this af-
fair Irving and Verdi Throckomrton,
Pearson Halstead and Howard Wis
chussen called on Commodore Ballard
in perfectly natural way, and all told
stories, sang songs and behaved just
as though no audience was looking at
them. The Commodore made a fine
host, entering right into the spirit of
the occasion, and handling himself as
though he had been accustomed to
stage work for years. Some Of his
friends were heard to remark that they
thought he had past, and really was
an actor at one time in his career.
Chuck Connors, the celebrated Bow
cry boy, journeyed all the way from
New York to see the show, and sat
right next to the writer. He leaned
over and murmured in the writer s ear,
in his coy, shrinking way: Say, Gull
dis Sewaren bunch has certainly got
bells on it, and it ain It slayin' time
yet, neither. Take it from me, little
one, dis gang can take lot of regular
actors I've seed, put 'em in armor
and den sting 'em to death. Watch de
entries fer me, pal, and any time dey
start in de future, put a nice bet down
on 'em fer me-" Chuck is so feeling
Perth Amboy evening news., 1909-09-28

and ingenious. A conversation with
him is like an evening with Longfel-
low.
Chuck laughed when the Commodore
said to the boys: "Have cigar, you
fellows" Chuck said: Say, dat CIV.
Irv. has got a wise coop, all right, al
right. He wrote dat line in dere gist
to git de Commodore in de jam. Ye
see, when de Commy read dat line, he
sees he was stuck fer round er
smokes, but bein a gentleman, he
swallers his medicine, and says:
OATS good line, Irv', and I kin
hear Irv say: Yes, Commy, it makes
de sketch seem so natural Den de
Commodore tries to smile like he
agreed with Irv. But say, pard, did
you notice dat when de Commodore
passed dem weeds around he kept a
mighty close watch dat some one er de
gang didn t grab a handful. Ye could
see in dat Halstead feller's eye dat
he was gist akin to slip somethin' like
dat over on de Commodore.
There was plenty of applause for
the first sketch, but when the next
number came along it was voted the
big hit of the evening Dot Throck-
morton and Ruth Ballard appeared in
this number, the former as a very prim
young lady in long dress, if you please,
and the latter as golden haired boy.
They sang, 81 Remember You," and
you could see that Master Ruth was
very much put out when he discovered
that Miss Dot remembered all about
him, and when Miss Dot shook her
finger at him. Master Ruth was ter
