00 V Amateur flight at hula the Victims V i1
I Got the Ghost Instead of the HooK I
1
By Charles Darnton
UE you hard U11 for board money
A It was the shot that killed Straight throiiKh the storm
of Jeers and howls mid groans It sped striking the poor
I mark full In the faro that the footlights and fright made
ghastly Down from the single font on which he had been tlnncInK as
gee might dance on hot coals camo the vlrtlm His sickly smile died and
was burled In his gray face Isle legs wrinkled at the Lures lie sank I
Into ills old shoes The mob was men cRt It hurled derision from
orchestra balcony and gallery Helpless before It the povertystricken
wretch stood paralyzed with fright Then the stage went black and
from one side came a ghostly figure that drove the limping shadow Into
the merciful shelter of the wines
It was amateur night at Keith Proctors Fiftyeighth Street Thea
tre where hapless performers now get the ghost Instead of the hook
The ghost I surmised was a sheeted stage hand with a hideous mask
whose delight It was to lay violent hands on the unlucky amateur who
had been howled down by the mob Sometimes he came on with a wheel
barrow Into which his prey would be dumped and carted off Into oblivion
To vary the cruelty a whiteclad dummy or a crown of lemons would bo
lowered over the unhappy head of a performer who foiled to please the
crowd
In most Instances the contestants for the few dollars offered as prize
were not given n ghost of a chance The hooting house drowned out tie
voices of most of the singers before they had fairly opened their mouths
Two or three piano players came In for similar treatment Dancers had
an advantage for their feet could be seen If not heard and with one excep
tion they succeeded In jigging down the tumult They were able to save
themselves from an audience hungry for fresh victims
In the sixteenth rentury bearbaiting was so popular In England that
the performance of plays on Thursdays was forbidden because the thea
tre threatened the national sport And now In the oatetb century
the vaudeville houses are going the other way round by making the baiting
r of human beings a distraction from the regular performance thereby
L threatening the theatre with rowdyism
the 61ot Appears
Get an axe yelled a man In the
balcony as a seared whitefaced boy
started to sing The ghost walked
and the lad wa gone
The gllb tongued announcer who eel
y thought himself n humorist hur
ried to the footlights and shouted
Minn Julia Maddox will sing Dream
f In a medium key
The laughter and scorn that greeted
or Julia withered the red rose In her
r Her face turned as pink an her
as Her lips moved hut her voice
s lout In ttio clamor of the crowd
en darkness fell upon the red rose
I the pink dr ae and a girlish figure
1 hKore the ghost
Patreeshus OHelllcy will sing The
very bawled the amateur humor
F nut he didnt The mob drove the
> ng down Ms throat It went down
le more easily because he wore no
r liter He smiled bravely for a moment
r ut his courage left him as two
Chosts seized him from behind
Two lids walked on with their swan
song

Are v nolvous called a youth from
I tho gallery
Tho little fellow matched dJxlr voices I
agalnat the jeers and laughter and went i
down to swift defeat They were
bundled off with the song choking in
II
their throats
Again the gent > man with the ntaible
tongue
I Mister OJlslllty has done a quick
ohange and will be right back
Weve had this fellow beforehes
I
no good an ustor Informed me
Down and out went Oltallley
I The announcer raised a hand to quell
the riot
lIsa Edna Walsh skirt dancer
A girl all In red ran out and began
raising her feet to music of David Hen
d nonA time
I always thought a skirt dancer had
lots of skirts remarked a woman near
me
I guess thats all she can afford
answered her companion
Off with the Dance
A roar went up with Kdnas feet The
sl < lrt dance became n ghost dance
I
and Edna wan spirited away

They wore now clog shoes for which

prize money nut boys dance on every
corner and Franklin Brothers found
themselves In the hands of harsh crit

Miss Helen Sterling will sing Wont
You Be My Honey r I
Sure was the ready response I
Helen radiant In red faced the
house with the confidence of a pro I
fessional amateur She was unafraid
Obviously she was hardened to the
usages of amateur night She
stretched her arms and her voice to
the boxes and her audacity carried her
through FIY
James Gnffney tall arcs serious next
obliged James burst Into song and
the house burst Into Laughter as he
barltoned
Out In That Long Island ctty
What happened there only James
knew The rest of his songstory wns
lost In the uproar When he had been
removed the Human Programme an

Company monooglst
Audience Did the talking
When Mr Howard started to talk to
the iiirtirn the audience started to
talk co him and the poor youth soon
found that the odds were hopelessly
njcalim him He hid hs embarrass
ment us best he could behind his burnt
I
ork whiskers until an ablebodl
ghost took him In charge
The Inng Island City Female
Octette proved to be n sextette likewise I
a Joke The s4x young Indies who lined
up to eng what Mr Uaffney had tried
to sing before them did not charm th
audience with their beauty They wen
of all sizes tall thin short tatnn I
neither their dresses nor their voice
harmonized Their Long Island Clt >
lay struggled desperately to get over
the footlights but It was beaten back
again and again and finally died on
I their lips
The announcer made another mistake
by saying Beaale beater will sing
Sacramento
Bessie In a street suit of modest gray
viewed the situation with alarm
through her 11 5 L
ots the mutter have you got a
MId 1 called an unsympathetic audi
tor when Bessie betrayed her first
symptoms ol throat trouble She turned
precipitately her glasses reflecting wild
fright and fled to the wings She
was coaxed back only to take a walk
In the dark when they turned out the
lights on her
Eddie Farrell who vainly raised his
oce In behalf of Long Island City
laughed the audience in the face and
his thumb to his nOM as he wan
driven Into retirement

The East Side Tnnor Magnolia
Hlusom suffered an early frost and i
lilted dlsmall at the question
Are yru out for the coin I
lie had no soonwr started to dance
than he wns grabbed by two staje
hands and loaded Into a wheelbarrow
The master of Ceremonies made a
special plea for the next brave soul
Mr John Barker he announced
Give him a chance he s a good
Ringer
Mr Barker oollarle and colorless
soon comuorod the unruly crowd with I
a very good tenor voice and a shower
of dimes began falling around him as
he sang
Simmic made 6ood
JJmmlo Graham buck dancer
throw himself Into his work and was
dancing on dimes before he had taken
many steps
Hes got enough money to buy hlm
