There were many persons in the

mond Hitchcock's alleged curtain
speech at the end Of the second act
OF the musical comedy Betty" In
which he maliciously assailed Billy
Sunday.
When the comedian FIRST began TO
talk bis hearers thought he was
making a few good-natured thrusts
at the evangelist, who was In Bos-
tor holding meetings when Hitch
cock was fulnliins an engagement

remarks became as vindictive as
they were uncalled for and In bad
taste. He launched on q TRADE

against sin. but as Hitchcock pre-
sented e. there was neither humor
nor fun about II. and Il. resolved
itself into something very near the
blssphemous.
A portion OF the audience en-
pressed its disapproval OF Hitch
cocks unbridled attack In Kisses,
but the majority was loath TO BE-
lieve that the comedian could be
serious and sat In silent amaxement
unwilling to believe its own ears.
Hitchcock has always had the
reputation of being able TO make a
clever and humorous curtain speech,
and this fact made his action Mon
