Giliett’s Dogs
15 mins. Landscape in 2. Garden in 4. Well known on the circuit. Went very strong, with laughter and applause throughout. Very good dog act.
Kimball & Donovan
12 mins. in one. Two men, straight banjo playing. Some good selections, well rendered. Filled in the time nicely.
Callahan & Mack
20 mins. Spec Set in 4. In “The Old Neighborhood.” Goes as well as it always went here. Received the first advance applause of the day. Too well known for comment.
Hodges & Launchmere
15 mins. Open in one. Gar. in 3. Close in one. Man and woman, colored team, in singing and buck and wing dances, and cake walkers, also some imitations. Their cat song in one, closing the act, is the best thing they do. Good for a three-a-day act. Many laughs at the end.
Aloz & Zola
15 mins. C.D.F. in 3. Man and woman, in an alleged sketch “The Handicap.” First time here – should be the last. We will not care for it again. The audience laughed – but not at the comedy. The close in one with a lively song was the only redeeming feature.
Wordette & Kusel
20 mins. C.D.F. in 3. Man and woman, in a comedy sketch “A Honeymoon in the Catskills.” Here twice before. The sketch improves with age, as does also the work of the man and woman. Went very well, with many laughs. Good three-a-day act.
Emile Surers
12 mins. in one. Blackface coon shouter and storyteller. His talk is not exceptionally good, and his stories are not very funny. Couldn’t arouse much enthusiasm. Works on the lines of Geo. Evans, but is a bad imitation – at least to-day.
Deltorelli & Glissando
15 mins. Pal. in 4. Two men, grotesque musical act. Very good three-a-day act. All of their musical numbers were encored, their violin work receiving prolonged applause. Very good opener.
The Hiltonks
3 shows, 16 min. open full stage, close in 1. These people offer a variety of work, including rag picture making, juggling and equilibristic feats, and in all they are fairly clever, but awkward in everything they do, and the man’s efforts to be funny decidedly detract form the act. There is absolutely nothing new in what they do and they will never fill an important place in any bill.
Thos. R. Ryan and Mary Richfield
2 shows, 30 min. full stage. Presenting their old sketch, “Mag Haggerty’s Father”, which want with screams from start to finish, and easily the laughing hit of the bill.
