Unless we are very much mistaken
another Shuttle Along came To
town last evening. This IS Liza -
a thing OF incessant Jokes, songs. and
dances at DAYS SiXty-third Street
Theatre performed by an aggrega-
ton OF color varying in hue all the
way from the deepest OF ebony to the
most delicate OF chocolate.
We have said another shuttle

seems a bit disparaging. Liza can
stand on her own feet, and in COM

tempo. There is some unconscious
rhvthm to which the whole perform
ance keeps time This is the beat,
beat of the jungle or the pulse OF
darkest Africa-whateyer You care 10
call it. But it is there as surely as
it is absent from the average Broad
way revue. which at best has only a
little manufactured rhythm of its own
Liza" is in tune with the rhythm
of the spheres.
1t is task hopeless as well as I'M
necessary TO single out individual acts
and players. The most catching song
is one bearing the title OF the piece,
but every one in the cast is star.
The comedy is old hollum we'll han
died. all the more welcome on that
account. There is a scene in grave
yard in which the two principal come
dams about to exhune a corpse having
five hundred dollars on its person, are
frightened away by ghost. and an
other delectable act takes place in a
barber shop The humor slips from
the ha.py-go-lucky and innocent into
studied vulgarity but once.
Persons loud in praise OF the
"Chauve Souris' speak OF the joyous
ness of the performers. This is pre-
oisely the quality of Liza and we
should cheerfully recommend it Tor

equivalent e what Mr.. Ralielf has
