Comedy acrobats. A rough comedy bar act that was a scream from start to finish, garden in 3. Time 6 min.
Colored comedians. These two boys certainly cleaned up in great shape and were the hit of the bill. Their new finish took them off the long continued applause and Goines was forced to make a speech even after the cards for the following act had been displayed. Olio in 1. Time 18 min.
“Wanted a Minister.” A comedy sketch by Victor H. Smalley. Not as good comedy as Baseballitis and really belongs earlier in the bill. Idea rather improbable but there are some good comedy situations that bring laughs. Finish quiet but pleasing and act took three curtain calls. A couple of specialties are introduced during the action of the sketch. Miss Yuill is charming in her character but Mr. Boyd is a better acrobatic dancer than he is an actor and there is lots of room for improvement in the acting line. C.D.Fcy in 3. Time 20 min.
This is one of the best girl acts we have played this season and created more enthusiasm than any ensemble act we have presented. Certainly the act possesses novelty and is by far Hart’s best effort. Full stage, special set. Time 19 min.
“The Flip Mr. Flop.” Comedy sketch, 5 people. Not much of a plot but keeps the audience laughing. This is the second visit here and the act went very strong at both shows. The work on the bass drum by Kittie Francis is a big scream. C.D.Fcy in 3. Close in 1, 5 min. Entire running time 20 min.
Acrobatic dancers. Man and woman. A very good opening act in this spot on any bill. Man works in clown makeup and they have a very interesting routine, closing with an acrobatic waltz. Own drop in 1. Time 9 min.
Boston jugglers. 3 people. An excellent opening act of any bill. People work fast and make neat appearance. Use special black velvet clorama drop. Full stage 10 min.
“The Travelling Dentist.” One of the best blackface acts in vaudeville and a big laugh from start to finish. Naturally a tremendous hit with our audiences. Own drop in 1. Time 22 min.
“A House of Cards.” A melodramatic sketch with four people and one of the bargains of the season. Sketch is interesting and held the audience though I question if it would go in the big houses. Miss Fuller is acceptable in the principal part and has good support. Fcy in 3. Time 16 min.
“The Wiry Scotchman.” A pleasing opening act for any show, Baxter’s work on a slack wire riding bicycles being well done. While he holds this spot in good shape am going to place him to open tomorrow to get more value out of the monkey act in this spot. Wood in 3. Time 11 min.
