New revue. 52 min. F.S. close in one. In her second week. Her advance applause to-day was equal in volume to that which almost any act receives at its close here. If such a thing is possible, the act went stronger to-day than at any time last week and she fully sustains the verdict given her in Philada. that she has the greatest act from an artistic standpoint that we have ever played, and as a box office attraction, is absolutely without a rival during the present season. In fact, not since the days of “Houdini” has there been a craze such as Philada. is now going through. The business last week was capacity every performance and the advance sale for this week is something enormous, and it looks that we will duplicate last week’s record of the house. Every newspaper in town gave her a special Sunday story and have has something more or less to say about her daily.
