Elephant, horse and pony. Splendid animal performance. One of the best.
Eccentric comedians, later of “The Motor Girl”. Well, we have read in some of the house reviews that a certain act was a “riot” and another “a knockout”. Whatever those terms mean this act is. Open and close in one.
“Sincerity”. The title is the name of the wife in a new play, produced against the will of the husband who is a broker and much opposed to his wife’s stage aspirations. He gathers all his friends together to attend and applaud the pay but knowing it to be bad he waits up with her until early morning to read the reviews, one by Allan Dale, and all are scorchers. She is cured. An Irish servant furnishes part of the comedy. Edgar Allan Woolf is the author. This is the first time played and it went along pretty smooth so that by the time New York is reached it should be playing good. Mr. Kent’s part does not give him full opportunity to do his best. Full stage.
Their voices do not blend well together and for some reason their success this afternoon was limited. In one.
We have not played this family for about three years and today they carried off quite a few honors. Made very good in this part of the bill. Full stage, closing in one.
Does some pretty good heavy juggling, including that of cannon balls, making it a very acceptable opening number. Worth the money. Full stage.
This lady and gentleman, working in evening dress, and doing the best sharpshooting ever on exhibition here, closed the bill most satisfactorily. Full stage.
“A Night in Naples”. Three men and two women in characteristic costumes, possessed of fine voices, picturesque special scenery and a good program, sang and played their way into hearts of our audience. A splendid offering of merit and distinction. Full stage.
“Tips on Tap”. Miss Gordon is a clever woman and carried this act through to a successful finish. She is going to prove a favorite here this week. Full stage.
This was one of the surprises this week as the boys with their catchy songs, trick piano work and funny business of one song and another surely did make good.
