Type: Bicycle

Booth & Nina

(11 mins.) Formerly Booth and Leander. Conventional routine of bicycle riding. Two banjo solos introduced by this lady and the comedy talk interspersed were well received.

Ben Beyer

11 min in 4. Comedy bicycle act made a good opener.

Walter Fisher & Co.

Comedy Novelty Bicycle Act. Man and woman. Do all manner of stunts on different sizes and styles of bicycles. Received plenty of laughs thru act and a good hand at finish. 12 min. full.

McDonald Trio O

(7 mins.) A man and two girls in straight bicycle riding. A good looking act and a very good opener.

MacRae & Clegg

Comedy bicycle, 10 minutes full stage. Very good act, many of their very difficult tricks are quite new, and performed in a darling and intrepid manner, while the comedy obtains a number of laughs throughout. The act however, is hardly a feature here, as they look for something really big in the head-line act; the general weakness of the surrounding show would demand something more pretentious than a bicycle act of two people to top the bill.

Signor Bagonghi

9 minutes f.s. Circus cyclorama. This is the dwarf rider from the Barnum & Bailey Show, making his first appearance in vaudeville. Carries two men and a woman, and two horses. One of the funniest equestrian acts we have ever played. Scored a big laughing hit.

Fred Renello & Sister

13 min. F.S. Cycling act with a rather showy routine of fancy and trick riding on low and high apparatus with a somersault trick for a finish. The riding is good. The girl dresses in tight fitting union suit making a rather daring display. Act lacks speed.

Harry Fisher Ward & Co

Comedy and sensational cyclists, 12 m, F.S. Very good act, containing much of a highly sensational nature, the various feats being performed with an almost reckless disregard for the performers safety. The audience was quick to recognize the sterling qualities of the act, and the applause accorded in attestation of the excellence of this offering was most satisfying.

Dooley and Nelson

Bill Dooley and Eddie Nelson are this two-men team. It’s another Dooley family, from the wild west, not the Philadelphia Dooleys who have a Bill of their own. This Bill Dooley must be a brother of Jed Dooley, for they both use lariats and this Bill rides a single wheel cycle besides doing other things, getting the most laughs for what he did by a Hula burlesque dance at the finish, to Nelson’s singing of the son^.
