An exceptionally good character dialect singing act. One of the big hits of the bill. 21 Min. open F.S. Close in One.
Mr. Morrell went first rate with the audience, principally because of his singing. We have had some worse monologists. 17 Min. in One.
Dogs and Cats. Not a great act, but somewhat unusual. Very acceptable at the price. 10 Min. F.S.
Two men, one made up as a woman, singing and dancing act, depending principally upon the surprise at the disclosure at the finish of the act that they are both men. Could make good a peg further down the bill. Went very well in this spot. 12 Min. in One.
Acrobatic comedy act. All right to open an early show or the bills at regular vaudeville houses in the smaller cities. All right for the money. 10 Min. F.S.
7 minutes, full stage. Performing some remarkable acrobatic feats. Their method, however, is old timey and the appearance of the men detracts from the real value of the act.
22 minutes, full stage. George Ade’s comedy “The Mayor and the Manicure”. This act is getting many laughs—going very well indeed. Mr. Barbour’s methods have lifted all dignity and tone bodily from the act. It now resembles a negro act. The supporting company is wretched. “Family affairs” whould [sic] be eliminated from vaudeville. The gentleman’s daughter is the ingénue and is awful.
“Protean Violinist”. Special drop in two. An ordinary violinist. The act is going fairly well—the impersonations of the different masters eliciting much applause.
22 minutes, special drop in 2, closing in one. Well known Scotch comedy singing act. Does not repeat so successfully as we hoped.
15 minutes in one. First time here. An immense success. One of the best singing acts we have played.
