1T was only theory, but n
caught on right away. Tho result
was that they dubbed me the origi

Fitzgibbon sought n musical In

stantly he recollected that his
brother. Lew, was an expert xIyo-
phonist. This was the solution Of his
problem. He. Bert. would buriesque
the xlyophone and later Lew would
have the difficult task OF conscienti.
ously playing the instrument before
the same audience.
A specially constructed xlyophone
was obtained for the purpose. II is
