Claude Ranf
Juggling on the slack wire and more than pleased in this position. Full stage.
Charlotte Hunt
13 minutes f.s. Miss Hunt in her second week is playing a sketch called “A Woman’s Folly,” in which she is the only character. For the first performances she has done remarkably well. The scene is a hotel room, rather elaborately furnished, with bed in an alcove. She is alone and is in a fit jealousy. A good deal of business in done with telephone. There is a beautiful display of millinery and gowns in a dressing scene, and altogether this gives promise of being a very novel feature in the sketch line. The very fact that one woman can hold an audience with a connected story is in itself worth while. Before the week is out with a little better finish, the sketch ought to be worth considering.
Gordon and Mary
12 minutes in one. Although we cut out quite a lot of the stuff of these German comedians, they went as big here to-night as they did this afternoon. Is one of the best acts of the kind we have played.
Vilmos Westony
Hungarian pianist. 23 minutes in one. while Westony did not create the sensation he apparently did in some towns he was certainly a hit here at both performances. Was really a big feature of the bill.
Percy Waram & Co.
18 minutes f.s. “The Boatswain’s Mate.” An English comedy that is full of laughs from start to finish, and has a good element of novelty all through.
Clark and Bergman
15 minutes in one. This pair have a very good act, carrying their own drop, the outside of a baseball grounds. The talk is fair, but the singing and dancing went well to-day, and their finish was very big at both shows.
Royal Colibris
10 minutes f.s. Three midgets that do some very clever acrobatic work with comedy. Made a very good opener.
Four Londons
A wonderful casting act that held the attention all the way through. First class performers with lots of applause. Hard to beat. Garden in 5, 8 minutes.
Conlin, Steele & Carr
A genuine fun riot. The hit of the bill without question. These young people all make an excellent appearance. They are hard workers and scored individually and collectively. They had a hard time getting away from the audience. Could hardly imagine an act going bigger. 19 minutes, olio in 1.
Hart’s Bathing Girls
Notwithstanding the hard work of this troup the act at no time gained any applause to speak of. It held the interest, however, but the finish was only fair. Considering the work and the manner in which the act is put on, I can’t account for its not going better, but it must be a case of the audience not particularly caring for it. The offering is in very good condition, so far as appearance is concerned, and really there is no fault to be found. Perhaps it will pick up during the week. 5 special acts, 20 minutes.
