Anyway, that's what Sam Tompson and his "Galaxy of Beauty" bunch thought about it when they met their Waterloo at Watertown. Sam Tompson arrived in Watertown with his bunch of girls and proceeded to the Opera House to get all ready for the evening's performance. Not many shows came to Watertown and the house was soon sold out. So far, so good. But Watertown audiences are critical. They didn't like the show, and showed their dislike by offerings of onions and eggs. Sam Tompson and his company went through their stunts under rather trying circumstances. The show was too much for the sheriff and he finally decided to use his authority, so he took Sam Tompson and his Galaxy of Beauty from the Opera House to the town lockup, where they were forced to spend the night. The next day they were put to hard labor but they finally rebelled, fooled the sheriff and the rest of Watertown rubes, making a successful get-away in a hand car. Written by
