Man and woman in the non-sensical burlesque entitled ‘The Fall of Fort Arthur.’ While this act is well known over the circuit it was the first time for it this house. The act is funny all right and so impressed our audience, but it is very rough from start to finish. Cut ‘under the pillows they are creeping,’ and ‘go to h-ll.’ Don’t care to see them again for a long while. While the people laugh while it is on, it did not make a favorable impression as I know from comments made by people going out. It is not an act of the calabre [sic] our audiences are accustomed to. 13 mins. Spec in 4.
