PETE MACK (McGlone), the well-known and capable comedian, joined J. C. Harrington about 1873, doing double songs and dances; the partnership continued about four years, when Mr. Mack, who was working under his own name, went with the New Orleans Minstrels. October 21, 1878, using the name of Mack, he joined Haverly’s Original Mastodon Minstrels in Chicago, and continued with Mr. Haverly off and on for several seasons; in the Fall of 1881 he was with Emerson’s Minstrels in San Francisco. Mr. Mack was with Haverly on the latter’s second trip to England, in 1884; while there he received an offer from “Pony” Moore to join Moore and Burgess’ Minstrels in London; he accepted and remained several seasons. Subsequently he was with Dockstader’s Minstrels in New York City, and with the “City Directory”; his last engagement was with Donnelly and Girard in “Natural Gas”; always appearing in black-face. Pete Mack died in Pittsburgh, Pa., March 15, 1892; age 35 years. WM. R. WESTON, of the firm of Culhane, Chace and Weston’s Minstrels, previous to the inception of that organization in the middle 90’s, was with Emerson’s Minstrels and Dockstader’s Minstrels. Was also with Reilly and Woods Co., and the St. Felix Sisters organizations. He was an accomplished musician and leader. At the time of his death he was musical director of the orchestra at the Music Hall, Yonkers, N. Y. His wife was Charlotte St. Felix, of the 4 St. Felix Sisters. William R. Weston was born at Stafford, Conn., April 6, 1857; he died at Brooklyn, N. Y., September 25, 1906. DAVID BELASCO.--The author had been told that the subject of this sketch played black-face parts during his very early career in San Francisco; and on September 12, 1910, wrote to Mr. Belasco asking him to verify the report. Under date of November 7, 1910, Mr. Belasco sent the following: “Pray pardon me for the delay in replying to your letter, but I have been much absent from town and my time wholly occupied with rehearsals. “I am sorry to say that I’m afraid I can’t give you any definite information, as it is from twenty to twenty-five years ago, and I really don’t remember. I only recollect that I played many little parts. Faithfully, “DAVID BELASCO.” Wonder if Mr. Belasco has any ideas in that fertile brain of his, as to how a minstrel show should be run? Bet he has. SALLIE COHEN played Topsy in “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” when she was a little girl; she told me so herself. But that couldn’t have been such a very long time ago; now was it, Mrs. Rice? SAM RICKEY (Rich. T. Higgins), one of the greatest stage Irishmen ever known, and who was an early partner of Edw. Harrigan, played frequently in black-face during his early career with Add. Weaver. He was also with Hart, Ryman and Barney’s Minstrels in 1871. [Illustration: JOHN A. LANG BOB. TYRRELL RAYMOND SHAW HAYDON TILLA THOS. B. DIXON HARRY SHIRLEY GEO. W. HARLEY HARRY W.
