Del Franco’s Miniature Circus

The act was eleven minutes long. Del Franco does a circus-style routine with monkeys and dogs. He begins the routine with five monkeys who do tricks. One of them acts as a policeman and does funny facial expressions. The monkey finish is a “monkey funeral”. This is followed by some tricks by the dogs.

Gautier’s Animated Toyshop

The act was twenty minutes long on the full stage. The act is set in a toy shop where the “toys” come to life. Four ponies and four dogs play the toys and do an entertaining routine. It is the act’s first appearance in the United States.

Rehlander’s Pigs

The act was ten minutes long on the full stage. Rehlander performs in a white butcher’s cap and apron with his trained pigs. Rehlander enters the stage on roller skates, pulled by a pig. The routine includes pulling a wheelbarrow, walking on hind legs, bowling, and catching clown hats in their mouths. Whenever a pig seems reluctant to perform a trick, Rehlander sharpens his butcher’s knife until they comply.

La Titcomb

Dressed in white, on a pure white horse, against a black-draped background, with light effects, La Titcomb gives an unusual “sight” act, including singing, posing and horse tricks, with some pretty “high school” exercises.
