10 LOVE BEARS GIFT b 10 MAGGIE CLINE Friends Gather With Desire to Cheer Up Stricken “Irish Queen.” Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. RED BANK, N. J, January 24— SMany friends of Maggie Cline, the eld-time music hall favorite, today wade the pilgrimage from New York city to this little town, the home of the “Irish queen.” They are friends from both sides of the footlights, lured to Red Bank by fews of the serious illneSs of their gormer idol, Inspired with the hope ©of being able to drop a word of en- ©couragement to the warm-hearted singer who made “Throw Him Down, MeClusky” a tune whistled from coast 10 coast three decades ago. They arrived bearing gifts, flowers enough for a prima donna, or for one of “our Maggie's’ former opening nights, fruit enough to stock a fruit Store, gifts enougn to give any Bift shop a rousing start. They did the thing after tho ap- proved manner of Maggie herself, and were disappointed and flled with foreboding becau€e entrance to the sick room was denied. It had not seemed possible to them, back in New York, that the “Irish Queen,” she of the resplendent emeraid gown and glorious laugh, could have been brought so low. Greeted by Anxlous Faces. Tntil they saw the anxious faces, heard the hushed voices of the mem- bers of the household, these pilgrims were halt convinced the desperate ill- iess was only a wild rumor which Maggle's beaming face and splendid wit_would dispel. i < “They haven't Maggie's art now- wda; €aid a white-haired man, using on the steps of Maggie's Pausin, Swipe his eves, “nor her heart, either — as ready with her purse as she was with her tongue. They don’t make comedians like Mag- Cline any more.” m;n“fl“‘wi}', yhe was right. The great chagm of Maggie Cline lay always not so much in her voice, though that was good enough; nor in her looks, which were more than good enough—but _ in _her _instinctive knowiedge of the psychology of an audience. 1t lay, in short, in the warm personal bond between the au- dience and herself. Each patron felt that Maggle was singing more for him than for the rest. There was something so personal in her sparkle, fa her comic glance, in the roguish gesture emphasizing a phrase that You felt friends with her at onco. There was nothing “up-stage” about Maggle Cline. Adds “Personal Touch.” Another feature which served to add tho personal touch to the rela- tions between Maggie and her au- dlence was the Eood old-fashioned v she cultivated. inilo, Maggic! the gallery would roar as one man when its buxom star shed out from the wings. i, boys!” Maggie would re- ond.

But Maggic remembered ome Me- Clusky of Haverhill, “an ould tarrier that it took four cops to hould whin he be on a spree.” 8o she held out for McClusky, and McClusky the hero be- came. Tor the phenomenal popularity of the song Mageie had no explanation other than that “every one loves a fight.” The song threw the entire nation into spasms of mirth, and It i on Maggic's word we have it that there was only one Irishman who dldn’t like the ditty.
