Selwyn’s comedy, snow flirts, and theatre talk amuse

In Selwyn’s last night show at the Theatre Comique mixed reviews mix with chatter about Mre Muff and Alice D as Orpheus. Snipps and Pipps discuss Eve and Venus as a model while others scout the Gorilla and curiosities for 15 cents. The piece notes winter’s oddities and a citizen’s alleged mental decline from reading public documents.
