Makarenko Troupe

16 min. F.S. One of the most brilliantly costumed foreign acts we have ever played. Nine people, all of them making a showy appearance and singing the songs of their country with a whirlwind finish. Opens full stage, goes to one, and back to full stage with entire change of costuming. Makes a good closing feature.

W.C. Fields

17 min. F.S. Well known on the circuit. Just as skillful and clever as ever. Fields is not only one excellent comedian but is thoroughly skillful in his manipulation. Made a big finish.

Billy Van & The Beaumont Sisters

27 min. F.S., close in one. Usually the pictures of the seemy [sic] side of stage life do not appeal very strong to our audiences, but this is an exception. The Beaumont Sisters are sprightly and fairly good vocalists, but Billy Van in the character of “Props” is certainly very funny. Hold the interest of the audience throughout and finished well in one.

Lillian Shaw

17 min. in one. Advance applause. Has a very pleasing personality, and sings quite well. Three changes of costume and sang four songs all of them well received and the last one, “Sadie Salome”, made a distinct hit. Was compelled to make a little speech.

Waterbury Bros. & Tenny

17 min. F.S., close in one. Well known comedy musical act. Two men work straight, one blackface. The comedy is good and the musical work up to the standard. The close in one with the musical pipes was particularly well applauded and won an encore.

Smith & Campbell

“Camping Out”. 18 min. in one. A very amusing line of talk, in fact, the best thing that they have ever offered us. Novel situation, constant laughter and a strong finish

James & Sadie Leonard

18 min. F.S. This is a great lot of nonsense, but it went strong. Same act as presented here before and held the spot in great shape.

Three Dolce Sisters

11 min. in one. Three pretty girls who sing well, although evidently lacking experience. Not an act for a difficult spot, nevertheless, held this modest place very well. Closed well.

Palfrey & Burton

14 min. F.S. This is a fair act as cycle acts go and makes a good opener. One man works straight, the other tramp comedian. The comedy is lacking, but the work on the unicycle was particularly commendable and got a good hand. There is no question but what the day of the bicycle act, as far as this house is concerned, is about over. Of all the acts we have played this season, Wilson was the only one who created any impression at all.

Usher & Whitcliffe

Went well. A vocal comedy offering for man and woman. “The Ranch Girl.” Both dress in western costume. Songs particularly well chosen and well rendered. Dialogue is good. An act with a plot that is not overdrawn. Full stage. Time 12 minutes.
