Two men: Comedy acrobats. – Very good act of its kind. – Opens with one member in audience who impersonates “Rube.” He starts argument with man on stage which leads up to work of both in Street in One. – 11 minutes.
The best monologue act we have had. – This man gets them coming the minute he takes his place on the stage and keeps his audience with him all of the time. – His imitations of George Cohan, DeWolf Hopper, and Warfield are extraordinarily good and he may put down as the biggest sort of a hit. – 24 minutes in one.
‘The Fifth Commandment’ – A most excellent one act musical dramatic playlet which made a hit of the first water. – Mr. Steger impersonates the character of Carl Winters most admirably and demonstrates the fact that he is an actor of the emotional order to be reckoned with. – This act is far superior to the usual thing in vaudeville and upon its initial presentation here went straight to the hearts of all who saw it. – The support by Wm. H. Pascoe and Helen Wilcox is all that could be desired. – Will be greatly disappointed if this act does not create lots of favourable mentions during its stay here, for it certainly deserves success from every standpoint. – 22 minutes in Library.

(Colored.) Singing and dancing act – Fair singers: woman dances moderately well: man very well. – The act has the merit of being very clean and taken with all our patrons. – quite a hit – 23 minutes in one.
Man and woman: Grotesque musical act. – – Who comedy consists of eccentric makeup of man, and ridiculous way in which his dressin illuminated by electricity. – Both performers play fairly well. – Makes a very good opener. – 14 minutes, garden in three.
