Clarice Vance
She can sing coon songs very good but has never been a favorite with the audience in this theatre and does not go very well, all in one, 7 minutes.
Horace Wright
This fellow impersonates an Italian Fruit Vender, using a “prop” push cart, as he makes his entrance. He sings several songs during his act intermingled with a little talk in broken English. Secures some few laughs. His voice is good. A little bit of novelty to it and a relief from the regular straight singing acts. 15 min. in one- 3 shows.
Geo. Catlin and the Chinatown Quintette
4 men and a woman. Act consists of singing, dancing, imitations and Baton Juggling. Catlin’s Chinese Impersonations are very good and went exceptionally well. The singing does not amount to much. Just about got by on the dancing. Baton Juggling is excellent. Strongest part of the act. Presume they are breaking the act in here. This place is entirely too strong for them. Will have to move them up earlier. 14 min, full stage , 2 shows.
Wiora Trio
Hungarian singers and dancers. Three young women, making a very pleasing appearance, they open with a Hungarian song, then sing a negro number and sing it fairly good, and finish with a Hungarian Gypsy dance, which went big this afternoon, they sing pretty fair and look nice. Nothing sensational to the act, merely a neat number, with a element of novelty to it. Nine minutes, full stage, two shows.
Theodore Morse Trio
3 shows, 15 min, open full stage, close in 1. Three male entertainers, two being vocalists, while the third plays accompaniments on the piano. They run mostly with coon songs, a la Cole and Johnson, but are not in a class with the latter. All right in the three-show class.
Ethel Levy
In a turn of character songs. She did a very strong act, opening with a ‘coon’ song which she did about as well as any woman that I have seen on our stage. She then goes to her husband’s (‘Mr. Morgan’) song which she sings while seated in a chair, and with which she makes a great big hit. Her last song is of the character order, and that was also well received. She does a mighty clever act. 17 min in one.
Max Ritter
Signs Coon songs, tells stories, and dances. There is a little confliction in this act and the Rooney Sisters and I put them both together in order to get them out of the way early in the bill as Ritter is just a shade better than the Rooney sisters. 8 min in one, 3 shows.
Hawaiian Glee Club
Fred Fischer and Mort Sharp
This “piano act” was sixteen minutes long.
Fischer and Sharp sing, talk, and act. Fischer plays the piano and Sharp attempts to act as a “nance” in a hat with ribbons on it. They sing “When I Get You Alone Tonight” in English, German, and Yiddish.
