after Watson had the squirrel coat
that he extended his effort toward Z
better lining for his robe of victory.
He has been replacing the Innings
and acquiring new and expensive
coats ever since.
Watson is chunky sort of
man. with a very snappy pair OF
eyes and q keen, clear-cut look
about him. He has probably been
longer before the country than any
other burlesque performer. and he
made the name of Watson so famous
in the business that now 1t IS used
by half a dozen imitators. who be-
lieve 1t 10 a money getter just be-
cause Of the fact that the original
Billy wears it. He is a hard working
performer and a painstakinG man

fcient recommendation Of the dan

is the last season Watson proposes
to remain on the stage. He has teen

believes he owes himself 4 rest.
And ne intends to instill in his own
son the same sort Of a practical am

Billy had been watching this mans
work for some time. and when death
claimed him the bootblack offered to
take his place. Furthermore the
boOtblack took II.
That was more than thirty-five
wears ago. He first appeared In a
German makeup and did a wooden
shoe dance. He believes he re-
ceived German influence for
his work because he was born

and It was but natural that he should
Use German construction for his
comedy. He perfected a German
dialect that was all his own and
played II several years. Opportunity
came to go out with a minstrel COM
pany and Watson forsook hurlesGue
to don the burnt cork. But the crowd
wouldn't accept a negro minstrel
with German accent. Going back
Again tho German dialect cropped
out in his speech. Then Watson
made up his mind to stick to the
German. He invented Philip Graus-
meyer, and made an instant success.
Why the Squirrels Died.
1t was only few years after he
made his real start with the German n
comedy that Watson acquired his
first fur-lined overcoat. In this gar
ment he took great prtde-even
though his expert mind knew all the
time a large number Of Bronx squir-
rels had died that the inside of his
coat might gain reputation as
sable. But squirrel or sable-it was

several months learning to classify
the different varieties of skins. and
it Is this that directed his ambi-
ton toward the Overcoat and his
footsteps toward the stage. Skins
in a turricr's shop, he declares. are
the best actors on the face OF the
earth. The mortal covering of
family OF cats by good team work
can SO play the part of seal-skin
cloak that only those that have
been behind the scenes can tell the
difference. The rabbit OF commerce
has become exceedingly rare, so
skillful have the members Of this
family of beasts OF the field become
in cnacting the parts of other and
more high-brow animals.
Became Outside ChirOpOdist.
So Billy decided to become an actor
and he first sought an engagement at
what vas known as the Chatham
Square Museum. in New York. lie
had been making 81 per week as
furricr's assistant and he accepted
single weeks engagement to do
song and dance at the museum at
S6. But he knew that the best way
TO reach the fur-lined ovcrcoat was
through the stage-all the actors had
them. AT the end OF his first week
he was discharged. He was told to
do anything but try TO act-and
especially try to act In burlesque.
BILLY was determined ne would act
and that he would act nowhere else
than in n burlesquc. show. In order
that opportunity should not escape
him he determined to remain In the
vicinity of the theater. He used
some Of his $6 to purchase an out
side chiropodist's outfit-outside
Chiropody being the business OF
polishing the feet with the shoes on.
lie polished the shoes Of mary dis
tinguished burlesauers before his
chance came. Then a man he had
been polishing of for years died.
