Watson & Santos
A polite singing & dancing team. 12 min. Olio. The dressing of this act is far above the average and very neat. The act as a whole is a big hit.
Josie Heather
English comedian. 18 minutes. Olio in one. Miss Heather is a very neat dresser. Her first two songs did not go over very well. Her last song is really a hit. Her salary is entirely too high. I would consider $200 a good price for this act.
Stuart Barnes
24 minutes. Olio. Mr. Barnes’ act is practically the same as we received from him during his last engagement, except in addition, one new song. However, he is the same big hit that he has always been and held the stage for 24 minutes.
Chadwick Trio
20 minutes. Interior. Close in one. The comedy of Mr. and Mrs. Chadwick is about the worst I have ever seen. The girls with her eccentric make-up and dancing make the act a big hit, being compelled to take bows at every performance.
Mabel Taliaferro & Co.
18 minutes. Full stage. Interior. “The Return of Tori San.” Nothing startling about this act. However, Miss Taliaferro is a clever actress and the sketch is a little different from anything we have played. While not a big hit, she is going very well.
Simone De Beryl
12 minutes. Full stage. This is a posing act with the best lantern effects I have ever seen. While this is a very good act, I consider it well paid, even at the reduced price at which they are paid now.
Homer Lind & Co.
22 minutes. In “The Opera Singer.” Full stage. Interior. Mr. Lind is doing very well for us. His act is a little different from the usual run of sketches and he is a big hit with his singing numbers.
Francis Yates
16 minutes. Female impersonations. Special velvet drops. Full stage. The material Mr. Yates is using is far from being good. His female voice I consider very good and his change to evening clothes, finishing with an Irish song, is done very well, but the act is not a hit and I would not feel like recommending it with his present.
Swor & Mack
Black face talking act. 16 minutes, street. The comedy of Mr. Mack is above the ordinary, especially his pantomime poker game. The act is going big.
Josselyn Trio
Aerial statuary, in black and white. Special, 9 min. very ordinary. While their work is clever, their idea of presenting the act is not good and does not reach the audience.
