SIDNEY DREW
COMING in BILLY
CONSTANT LAUGHTER FOLLOWS
EFFORTS OF SIDNEY DREW IN
BILLY, WHICH Us TO BE AT THE
FARGO oPERAHousE MONDAY
NIGHT.

Minneapolis Tribune: 1t is a triumph
OF mind over matter worthy of consid-
Grafton by advocates of modern reli-
gious thought, that the subject of ar
tificial teeth usually avoided altogether
In the best circles and spoken of free
~ only in the dentists office or the
bosom Of the family. should be the
OASIS Of a farce that not only is inof-
fensive, but uproariously funny.
Such farce is Billy, which Sidney
Drew and his capable company of far
ceurs are presenting at the Shubert
the first part of the week. Billy is
familiar to Minneapolis tEeatergoers
as Its parent vaudeville sketch. Billy's
Tombstone's, has been played here.
and the farce itself was produced last
summer by the Lyric Stock company.
Briefly 1t tells the story of a sensitive
young football hero who has four front
teeth kicked out during game After
having them replaced he goes To Ha-
vana for his health and finds on the
same steamer Beatrice Sloane. the
girl, and Sam Eustace, the deadly
rival. He loses his new teeth, which
enables him to speak of the girl only
as Beatrith Thloane and Of the rival
as Than Euthath. This absurd pre-
dicament Is spun out over two hours
of constant laughter with much in
genuity, though it is thin here and
there. A clever contra-plot is intro
duced which involves the girls moth
err in a similar dilemma and the cur
tain descends upon the young man
clasping the maiden to his heart and
exclaiming with restored confidence
and teeth, "Beatris-s-s-s." At no point
does the laughter swell more loudly
than at his efforts, before the Restora
ton, to address the object of his af
fections in words that contain neither
an 50 nor soft &C."
Sidney Drew's performance of RilIv
Hargreave, the unfortunate hero. is
really marvel of farcical work: a
semblance of seriousness that never is
laid aside, and that is funniest when
1t is most serious. The more emphatic
his distress, the more unintelligibIe
becomes his thickened conversation.
and one regrets ones inability to SYM
pathize with him until he informs
