Jack V. Gardner
In a monologue entitled “ODD STUFF.” He has an assistant who sits in the audience and the windup goes on the stage. His act consists of an abundance of original stories and sings. 20 minutes in one; went good.
Dolly Richards
Monologue. This woman has a nice line of talk on the peculiarities of woman. Makes a nice neat appearance. Her line of talk was new, at least to this audience, which was enjoyed immensely. 11 minutes in one.
John J. McGraw
Monologue on “Inside Baseball.” 10 min. in one. Big advance hand both Sunday performances. McGraw tells numerous amusing stories of his career on the diamond, and his talk throughout is interesting and attentively listened to. McGraw has a pleasing stage appearance and address, and seems to be thoroughly at home in addressing the audience. His style and delivery are in pleasing contrast with the work of “Mugsy” McGraw on the ball field. No question about his being a hit and a drawing card.
Just previous to Mr. McGraw’s appearance we are throwing on slides of Chance, Sweeney, Huggins, Hoblitzel, Bescher, Matthewson, Garry Herrmann, Joe Tinker, Frank Bancroft, “Brownie” Burke and McGraw himself, followed by a three minute moving picture of a baseball game on the Polo Grounds between New York and Boston. This plan works up the audience to a receptive attitude for McGraw, which becomes very manifest when McGraw appears. We are receiving more newspaper publicity on account of McGraw than for any other act that ever appeared at the house. NEW YORK.
Charlie Case
Monologue. 16 min. in one. This man ought to have something now. He has been coming here season after season with the same old material. At yesterday’s matinee there was not a word or movement of any kind that our regulars have not had several times from him. Last night he changed about a bit. However, act went big both performances.

Joe Paige Nash
Monologue, straight make up, some very good material 12 minutes in one went very good.
James Young
“Flashlight Impressions of Hamlet, Shylock and Marc Antony.” A splendid Shakespearian actor who left a fine impression upon our audience today. Special settings in two.
Rose Claro
14 Min in 1 This girl has a rather unique monologue which she put Over very well. Closed to a good hand.
Joe Daniels
Monologist and Imitator. Tells stories, imitate different people and sings. 12 min. in one; went good.
Phil Staats
This man has a good personality, can play the piano well and relate a story, all in a manner that takes with the audience. In one.
James Young
Studies in Shakespear [sic]. I was a little fearful that this act might not go, but was most agreeably disappointed. It would not be too much to say that he made a hit. His act is splendidly mounted, carrying several drops and he was given good applause all though and at the finish. 16 Min. in Two.
