Acrobatic 12 min. F.S. 3 shows. On at 6:38. This is essentially a strong-man act. The heavy-weight comes on bearing the other two men on his shoulders. The three men make fine presentation in Roman athletic costumes. Their various stunts received good applause. The novelty of the feature consists of an act in a steel skeleton supporting four rings, the skeleton is supported on the shoulders of the heavy-weight, while the two other performers give feats on the rings. This act would make a good opener for any house, or could go lower on the bill with credit. Would be relieved by a little comedy of which is shy. Closed well, with one curtain call.
