Wall Gtreet,”” offered last night at the Gar- Phot. ‘This “original comedy of New York Wife of to-day,” as it ts called, is nelther strikingly original nor blindingly bright. M harks back to “The Henrietta’ in General form, but H. J. W. Dam, who- ever else he may be, is not Bronson Howard. Were it not for the kindly assist- ance of the programme {t would be a father diMcult task to classify the “Bkipper"’ show, for it skips so blithely rom bathos to burlesque that at times the mystery of its conception 1s wholly impenetrable. Hamor Is Very Sad. And when the author makes a den bolt outside his story, as he fr quently does, in search of humor, he brings home such sad specimens as to make one wish Mr. Dam might have had one less initial and another Jetter in_his surname. Dr. Dam may know his Wall strect— as he pretends to know Newspaper few iat he does Wall street is en- tled to something more than a new Stock Exchange. The Wall street of “Skipper & Co." Is Peopled with strangely-acting persons with weird whiskers and things.

Mr, Cherry, in this case, goes by the mame of John Belmayne, jr., but he's aimply Charles Cherry. In accomplishing tae several Skipper tasks, Macklyn Arbuckle worked like @ stenm engine. and was eternally and infernally noisy.
