The famous piano accordeonist [sic]. Went fair this afternoon. Very good tonight. 12 minutes. This show is very good all through. The Lester trip has a fine sketch. The comedy is very good act. Should have went better, but this seems to be a hard audience to move.
I had a talk with Deiro this afternoon also this evening. This afternoon he seemed very much discouraged at the reception he received. He told me that it was the worst he ever received. Said he played last week at Keith’s Philadelphia, and 25 minutes was his usual time. Tonight he went a good bit better but not what he deserved.
