ROYALTY RIDICULED
INCIDENTS IN ENGLISH REVUE i INQUIRY TO BE HELD Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, February &. (Received February 10, at 9.30 a.m.) The ‘ Daily Mail ’ says that the Lord Chamberlain ordered an inquiry, following complaints made against a revue staged in a Midland town, in which it was alleged that a comedian, appearing as the Prince of Wales, was grotesque in dress and deportment. During a burlesque inspection of a liner’s crew ho made vulgar and ridiculous remarks. The Lord Chamberlain’s office stales that impersonation of living members of the Royal Family will not bo permitted. The revue, when submitted for license, did not contain the alleged objectionable passage, the interpolation of which would render the company liable to prosecution.—A. and N.Z. and ‘ Sun ’ Cable.
