8 Mins; Full Stage. This turn was formerly of the Gelli Family, a French acrobatic act which was first seen here two years ago. The letter box expose of the midget is used at the opening. The two young men who perform most of the work are classy workers and are “good looking.” The routine is varied, with foot Juggling of one of the men who tosses the other and the midget about… The body swing stunt done in spotlight drew’ a big hand. It is probable the act was cut in numbers because of the price five persons must have called for. In the present form the Gellis rate a first rank acrobatic act. Closing the show they held the house.
