Miss Gerard made her second appearance in this house and made good as formerly. She has added a dog to her act and her horses appear to have improved in some of their stunts. I regard this act as the prettiest animal act in vaudeville. 12 min. F.S.
Presenting “In the Battle of San Dago.” This rough sketch was the laughing hit of the bill, but then it must be remembered that the bill is not very strong in comedy. 20 F.S.
This excellent actress assisted by Francis Carlyle presented “The Queen’s Messenger” to an appreciative audience. The sketch has little action but it allows Miss Millward to run the whole gamut of human emotions. While I am apprehensive of its drawing powers I feel that it reflects credit on the vaudeville stage. 30 F.S.
Somehow or other Lawrence always goes strong in this house with his mimicry, stories and smart sayings. While I cannot see him at all it appears that the audience wishes to see a great deal of him. 21 in 1.
This man and woman extract considerable music from sleigh bells and from a huge instrument they call the giant myriphone. The act is both novel as well as musical and makes good. 9 min, F.S.
These three men furnish an acrobatic comedy act of considerable merit. The ground tumbling of the two smaller men is excellent, and the act gets considerable applause. 10 F.S.
Two women and a man in a equilibrist act. The man does a head stand on a bottle which sets on a pedestal. The women simply assist in the act. The apparatus is novel and the act is well dressed. 13 F.S.
Ball manipulators and acrobats. This act has improved greatly since they last appeared here. They are four in number now and they added the ball juggling in which they are very clever. Have also improved in their acrobatic work. Full stage, 14 min.
Presenting the same old sketch, “A Friend of the Family”. Although he has played this act here several times, it created much laughter yesterday as it has before. 20 min, full stage.
Comedy sketch, “The Sailor and the Horse”. While this act is draggy in places it gets a great many laughs and the finish is very strong. 22 min, full stage.
