In “The Maid of Tarrytown”. These well known artists were well received all the way through and were accorded many solid laughs for their excellent work. They didn’t seem to lag a minute but for some unaccountable reason their finish was only moderately strong. However, they were eminently satisfactory and I cannot possibly call attention to a single defect in their work. 19 minutes, street in 1.
By all odds the best violin specialty we have ever had in the house. He gained the individual attention of the audience from the minute he appeared on the stage and gave us 22 minutes of about as good entertainment as anybody could desire. Was compelled to respond with an encore at the finish. ‘Twould be hard to imagine a better offering than this. 22 minutes, palace in 2.
Two men in a straight and comedy cycle act. They gained the attention from the first but didn’t arouse any demonstration until the comedian of the team appeared, after which they got along very nicely all the way through, and made a fairly strong finish. Satisfactory for an opener. 10 minutes, garden in 5.
This well known team of German comedians created a lot of laughs and finished strong. 19 minutes, street in 1.
A very nice looking girl who whistles well. Not a great big hit but a moderately good act. Just about got by. 9 minutes, olio in 1.
In “A Mischievous Brother”. Two men and a woman in a hodge-podge of stuff without rhyme or reason, some which went quite well and some of which did not. The finish was moderately strong. 18 minutes, C.D.F. in 3.
Monologist. Very quiet and genteel in his method. Gained several good laughs and got by fairly well all the way through. Very little demonstration at the finish.
Quite a pretty little posing act, each picture of which gained some applause, and the finish of the act being fairly strong. 8 minutes, special in 5.
This well known and highly recommended risley acrobatic offering lived up to every good thing I have ever heard about the act in advance. This is a really great offering, the equal of which is seldom met. They scored heavily all the way through and the finish was an unqualified, emphatic success. Would there were more like this act. 15 minutes, special set in 5.
“Dainty Comedienne”—She makes a good appearance, her dressing of the act showing a number of pretty gowns which should prove interesting to the women in the house. As a singer she is only fair and the four songs she sang just about got by. Not a bad act but one that is not overly strong. Her personality is pleasing but not especially magnetic. Would recommend this act for an early place on a bill and believe that she would get along moderately well. This afternoon she failed to get her trunk here in time to appear in her wardrobe, but this report on the act is taken from her work on the nigh show.—10 minutes olio in one.
