Billy Clifford.

Billy and his bunch of musicians
and chorus of singers were here with
Manager Cox at the Reynolds last
Thursday night. Billy has all the
airs of veteran. He stands in the
center of the band of beauties and
tickles the snare drum while the
girls are tearing rags, and they sho'
are looney on rags. Billy does a
minstrel double in the show and
dances some with the little red
headed pony girl. There is some
class to the dance and some to Billy
Want to think Of Geo. Cohan some
times, when Billy is working, if we
could get the consent of the man
ager.
Billy has three good cards in the
Westons. They are musicians and
theatrical people, the genuine
brand. One of the girls is careless
with the violin-plays like she had
a bank deposit and could break the
instrument if she wanted to. But
the more she fights the more the
fiddle sings and the bigger the en-
thusiasm of the audience. The pi-
ano player-she is more so-the
other girls are plump. Thought the
tall one the night before with the
Kinney troupe was the only pianist,
but "Shortie" is there with the soft
and strong pedal just the same. She
had piano when she was taking
lessons and other things. But the
black-haired one with the goo-goo
lamps -ah, there's some looks. She
plays the cello-eh, well, she could
play in some of our back yards if
she wanted to.
The show was good, Billy. Sorry
the box office didn't do better, but
there will be better collection on
your next annual visit.
