Five weeks ag-o, while appearing on
.the Keith circuit in Philadelphia,
he was taken ill and died last week
in a hospital there. Mr. Rock had
been on the stage for more than 30
years, and was the originator of a
very clever style of dancing which
has been much imitated. His first
stage experience was with the old
Ward and Vokes team and his pres
ent act was one o-f the highest i)aid
in vaudeville. ,

' BT ELIZABETH LONERGAN.
NEW YORK, July 15. (Special.)
The dullest time of the sea
son is here right now and it
depends entirely upon the weather
whether or not the state of affairs
will continue for several weeks.
Last week, after the closing of a
number of shows. It was surprising
how few tickets could be -bought
at the agencies or In the cut-rate
offices. This was due to the pre
valence of thunder storms which
made the beaches unbearable and
drove the crowds into the theaters.
A manager of ,a two-year success,
who. closed his theater a week or
two ago, has been bewailing the
(fact ever since. In. dollars and cens
his loss run into five, figures, all
because he did not know that cool
"weather was coming!
Eddie Cantor is closing in order
to get the vacation due him from
the Shuberts. At least Eddie says
he needs one and it is in his con
tract, and anyhow he is tired.' An
entirely different reason has caused
Ed Wynn to abandon "A Perfect
Fool," and one with which, the -public
Is at present unfamiliar. Prob
ably after his show moves out of
the George Oohan theater the story
will became public property. It
seems that a few weeks ago Ed
Wynn hurt his foot quite badly. It
bag been possible for him to go on
with his part, with the offending
member carefully strapped, but the
doctors advised absolute rest before
starting on that cross-country tour,
And so Mr. Wynn will have six
weeks to get in shape and will open
in Atlantic City, play Philadelphia,
Chicago and points west. He is
most anxious to visit the northwest
asain, because it was on the Or
jnoum tour , that he met his bride.
Hilda Keenan, and each city from
Tacoma to Los Angles has pleasant
memories of the early days of their
meeting. Frank Keenan had his
daughter playing In. his sketch, but
was very insistent that she have
(nothing to do with any of the actors
on the bill. This worked until she
met Ed Wynn, who was doing a
isingle on the same bill. According
to a story the title "A Perfect
Fool" owes its Inspiration- to this
same trip. In San' Francisco, after
Beveral weeks of Wynn's constant
presence Mr. Keenan remarked that
Ed was a fool. "Yes. perhaps, father
dear," ventured Hilda, "but , such
the perfectly . good, perfectly enor
mous ring that Wynn had given her
and announced that she was per
fectly foolish about him as he was
about her! i
Wynn Revne Makes Fortune,
The Wynn Revue has made a for
tune; for its star and producer and
it is too bad that it has to pull out
In the middle of its success. -Per
haps there will 'be a return engage
ment after the western tour; who
knows? Rumor has it that one of
the objects of the California visit
is to do some picture work. The
funniest musical comedy comedian
on Broadway should be able to
make good In pictures and it is a
wonder that he has waited so long.
Speak'ng of the west and romance,
Mitzi and her leading man, Boyd
Marshall, decided when i they were
on the coast on their last tour to
marry and live happily ever after
ward! As soon as they got back to
New York they were married and
this year are on a second honey
moon in Europe. As soon- as they
return they will start for the coast
under the management of Mr. Sav
age and play the charming little
comedy for their- many western
friends. The plan Is to return to
New York in February in a new
play now in the process of prepara
tion by Zelda Sears and Harold
Levey.
Mitzi and her husband sailed on
LrcuNA tku;U!;x, cowgirl or
Oregon, continues to attract
. interest and attention fn
New York, whither she went a
few weeks a"go to apply for a
jockey's license. The metropolitan
feature writers have all seized upon
the colorful young western horse
woman as "copy," and her pictures
and accounts of her prowess have
appeared daily since she arrived in
New York. The New York Morning
Telegraph devoted, a half page to
the youngthful Miss Trickey in a
recent issue, saying, in part:
Leona Trickey, flapper, Cheyenne
model, walked out into Times
square one day last week and tried
to find a place to do her morning
lariat exercises. After a thoughtful
survey she pulled a powder puff
from her pocket the one nearest
the six-shooter and . commented
sadly:
Wonder what Will Rogers sees
in this town, anyway!"
Girl Weighs 80 Pounds.
The traffic cop breathed again.
Miss Trickey weighs 90 pounds in
her mules. It would have been
kind of embarrassing if she had
tripped a skyscraper. Just at the
noon hour, too. Spectators looked
relieved when she turned in the di
rection of the Jockey club, 70 West
Fortieth street. There she applied
for a jockey's license. Yes, sir, she
means to ride Morvich, Whiskaway
or some future wonder horse to vie
tory at Belmont or Aqueduct yet.
That is, of course, if August Bel
mont. Major Daingerfield and those
other anti-feministic horsemen can
be persuaded to change their minds.
Glancing over Miss Trickey"s head
her shoulder was too near the re
porter's waist line to matter it was
discovered that her application for
a license contained proofs of her
victories on all the western tracks
of Oregon, . Idaho, Arizona and
Washington.
MUs Trickey Winsome.
Webster would not have known
how to interpret the term "flapper.".
It is applied to Miss Trickey on the
theory that modern scholars would
define it as "a wild and winsome
member of the younger generation.1

William Rock la Dead.
The sudden death of William
Rock, who - was known in the west
long before he came W Chicago or
Broadway, came as a shock to his
many friends along Broadway. Old'
timers can remember hi3 work on
the Orpheum circuit with Maude
Fulton, his first dancing partner.
Later he introduced Frances- White
to the stage and after their act sep-

fashion, over her own western
ranch ad easily as the eastern flap

subway seat. And her "voice is the
softest and gentlest that was ever
heard outside a convent corridor.
Perched on the edge of a chair In
her room at the McAlpin hotel, she
looked almost as frail and delicate
as one of Conan Doyle's fairies. Out
west she doesn't have to compete
with the "L" lines when she speaks.
The reporter had to strain both ears
to catch the story.
Girl Tells Experiences.
"I have just spent five weeks in
the saddle rounding up a lot of my
horses which Had been rustled from
my Oregon ranch," she said. "Got

Charles B. Irwin, owner of the Y-6
ranch, whose fast steppers she has
ridden on the "bush" and "outlaw"
tracks of the west. Mr. Irwin wants
the Jockey club to give the littre
cowgirl a license so that she can
ride at Louisville, Tia Juana, Mex
ico. City and on the big eastern
tracks and compete for the huge
purses awarded the competent
jockey. She would even be con
tented with a special license for a
limited time, because she thinks it
would help her win her case.
Riding Begun as Baby.
"There are already many girls
riding, in the 'bushes,'" she says,
"and it is rougher there than on
the big tracks, so I guess I can hold
my own with any of them. Riding
good stock Is a lot easier than rid
ing poor horses. It's like playing
cards. If you hold a good hand
your chances are better."
She has been riding for five years
in all sorts of contests. Indeed, she
says she rode before she walked.
Tom Mix is her favorite f ilm star.

At that time he asked if he could not

"Yes, but do it for the i girls; the
