Black Patti in Oklahoma City.

The Daily Oklahoman of Oklahoma
CITY has the following to say of the
Black Patti Musical Comedy Company,
which appears at the Colonial Theater
next Monday night, December II:
when Sissieretta Jones, the Black
Patti sang Home, Sweet Home, with
chorus accompaniment, at the Over
holser Theater Sunday, she proved to
the audience that she was worthy of
the name, for her notes were clear and
true, and the plantation tinge that is
inherent in all negro voices, made her
singing peculiarly touching.
Julius Glenn, the leading comedian,
was funny. You'll have to give it to
him, and he shared honors almost
equally with Black Patti 1t was well
worth the price of admission just to
hear him sing his topical song, Plant
Watermelon on My Grave and Let
the Juice Ooze Through

What Dallas Thinks of "The Matinee
Girl" Company.

SiTi SofnpdHJ.
The Dallas Times Herald says:
The Matinee Girl company, which
began weeks engagement at the
Orpheum yesterday, had the pleasure
OF playing to two audiences that were
crowded and damned to the very
doors. This year The Matinee Girl
Is billed as the 1912 edition, and it
must be because it is all new, just as
the posters say. Dan Russell, who is
always looked for with this company,
was on hand in all his glory. Dan
must have taken trip lately to the
place where funny sayings are manu-
featured, for he is full of them and he
let's loose of them at about the rate
OF four a minute.
paul Clifford, doing the German and
working with Russell, is a real Dutch
man, and his efforts were appreciated.
"Millie Corbin White, as Mrs.
Swartz, and out for good time, was
very pleasing, and her song selections
received several encores. Maggie Ray,
with her winning SMILE, was busy
sirl stirring up trouble. Miss Ray is
charming and is always up and going,
helping the part greatly. She is also
some coon shouter right at home
when she is singing. Miss Mccain
handled her part in a most satisfac-
tory manner, and had a couple Of new
songs which pleased immensely. Anger
and Handley, The Dancing Bell Hops,
are two real dancers.

and dance well and know how to wear
