This is a foreign act and introduces one man and two women in a sort of semi-military costumes, their work being confined exclusively to brad instruments. The man enters first and plays a selection on a baritone instrument something like a French horn. Then the two girls appear and play cornets, which they afterwards hand to him and he plays on both cornets at the same time. They then goes [sic] to French horns which they work in the same way. Next they take instruments shaped like coaching horns, only that they have keys, and play a selection on them. They then go to a different style, but the same shape as a coach horn, and play a selection for a few seconds, the man playing with the horn balanced on his lips. It is rather an odd sort of turn and was very well received by our audience. 12 min, open full stage and close in one.
