16 min. This is his first appearance in several years here and he was a big applause hit. His act is a distinct novelty in rapid character changes and he injects comedy into his work which gives it additional light. He finishes with some comedy juggling in his old-time character of a tramp and closed to a big hand.
22 minutes in one. Olio drapery. This act is the fifth turn on the bill using a piano. In spite of this handicap, they put over the laughing hit of the show, and ran Sophie Tucker a nip-and-tuck race for the applause honors of the bill.
18 min. This young fellow has a good line of comedy talk and with a peculiar delivery put it over in good shape. He kept the audience laughing and own a big hand for a sentimental poem used at the finish. A very good monologue, a little different than others and registered a hit.
16 min. These two men who have always worked in German makeup, appeared almost straight but still do their tangle talk in German accent. They were a big laughing hit, use no material whatever that is offensive and have two or three parodies, which were big applause winners. Act as usual was a big hit.
33 min. Doing an act along the same lines as was done by Montgomery & Moore, but with a lot of new stuff. An extra man is carried for the piano numbers. Miss Moore does her usual “Nut” comedy stuff, while Frank does three straight songs, getting them all over in good shape. The act is full of action, kept the audience is a roar of laughs and finished strong, being the distinct applause hit of the show.
Three men; comedy satire on circus life; open in one with a drop representing a circus tent and then inside in the lion’s den – this act was full of laughs, but got no hand at the finish. 15 min full stage.
17 min. A series of impressions taken from life furnishes this girl with a very pleasing single offering. A scene in the divorce court, one in a trolley car and another on board the train furnish her with material for her comedy talk. She kept the audience very well entertained with all three numbers and finished to a liberal hand.
In “Tom Walker in Dixie.” 37 minutes in one and f.s. Special sets. This is a funny act, with some good character work by Mr. Hymer; the Devil; and the little girl. Is a not long-drawn-out, but it certainly made the audience laugh at both shows today.
13 minutes f.s. Special set. This act was the laughing hit of the show. Work in a special red-white-and-blue cyclorama. Two white horses and nine people. Open with a conventional “rosin-back” act by the St. Leon Family; then a “mechanic” is introduced, and volunteers to ride are called from the audience. The act was riot at both shows Monday
Colored comedians, who have some fairly funny talk and finished with an extremely funny burlesque boxing dance. 11 Min. in One.
