Willie Becomes Ecstatic Over White House Burlesque
A reader recounts Wille’s reaction to a White House burlesque titled One Day at the White House. He found it funny and laughed at a skit implying McKinley is ruled by Hanna while noting humor does not prove truth. The piece highlights acts by Pascatel Blackford brothers and the Field’s minstrels. The troupe’s final show is Sunday with four matinee performances tomorrow.
