Small House.
Small but appreciative," Is a
phrase, which must be dragged forth
from the waste basket again TO de-
scribe the audience at the Kentucky
theater last night, when Frank Nc
Intyre and the original company play
ed THE Travelling Salesman" The
same piece, played by a mediocre
for a roast that probably hurt the
show last night; but several who saw
both performances, said they enjoyed
the performance last night as much
as il the other company had played
"a different piece. without doubt,
Frank Mcintyre is "The Travelling
Salesman" in more sense than one.
His understudy's Imitation OF the fat
comedians breezy ways last season,
was the acme OF Stiffness, that made
the audience mad. From the moment
Frank Mcintyre entered the stage
last night with his big, hearty laugh
until the curtain fell on the consum-
nation of his hopes and plans with
regard to Beth" the audience was
in continuous state OF merriment.
