Open in 1, Main act F.S. with special back drop and miniature buildings about the stage. Close in 1. Time 12. 2 men, 1 woman. This is a crackerjack hooprolling act during a greater part of which the hoops are made to impersonate characters in a little comedy. The act is much improved over last appearance here.
Time 14. In 1. Scotch comedian. Fairly good line of stories and songs.
Man & Boy. In 4 woods. Time 11. Very skillful balancing on the trapeze. Too quiet for an opener. Closes with some foot juggling while playing a violin at the same time.
The man who tamed Electricity. His experiments are very interesting, but his comedy work on the subjects is what gets the audience. Had them jumping out of their seats with the different situations he puts his subjects in, big hit, and look for it to do some business for me. 17 min. full stage.
In her new act, this is a very hard spot on my bill for a single woman, but Miss Barry got them from the start, her songs are of the right kind and well delivered. She makes two changes of costume both of which are magnificent. The audience at the finish of act kept calling for more. Made a very big hit. 19 min. in one. Miss Harry carries a young man accompanist for her songs with her.
Presenting sketch “Drifting.” The most beautiful stage setting we have ever had. The story is very interesting and has some good comedy situations, went very big. 17 min. full stage, own setting.
Singing and dancing messenger boys, went very big. 19 min. full stage.
In the farce “His Wife’s Butler.” A very good comedy sketch, full of funny situations. Three people full stage, went very good. 14 min.
Wizard of the One String. The music that he gets out of his one string cigar box instrument is wonderful. Making a fine stage appearance himself and could go further down on the bill and more than make good. Act made a hit. 14 min. in one.
Grotesque Illusionists. Made a good opening act. 11 min. full stage.
