Show HIS "HUNCH" WAS CORRECT Actor's Assertion That Someone in the Audience Had a Bottle Quickly Proved True. A peculiar incident happened in a local theater, which provided enough comedy to make the performance very amusing. In one of the acts, prohibition prohibi-tion was made the butt of all the actor's ac-tor's Jokes, and he happened to be one of those fellows who makes reference to the audience. "Where is that bottle?" he shouted at the audience. "Someone in the house has a bottle, with the cork off." Hardly had the laughter subsided when there was a "plunk," as a bottle dropped accidentally from the grasp of someone down in front.- It happened just at the opportune moment and the house went into roars of laughter. Whoever dropped it made no attempt to reclaim It, even though the bottle might have contained anything from milk to medicine. But the M. A. T. has been told by someone who was close to the sound that some time after he saw7 a woman slowly making an attempt at-tempt to reach for the fallen wet goods. Lawrence (Mass.) Telegram. |
