“President of the Thirteen Club.” 20 minutes in One. Mr. MacConnell has two confederates in the audience who afterwards ascend to the stage, and the three do some great singing. MacConnell’s monologue is immense. The work of the two confederates is also very clever, and the act makes a big hit.
Man and woman, in the same old act, “A Stormy Finish”. Great favorites here. Connelly’s piano-playing is a big hit. Great finish, and act went big.
Character songs. 14 minutes in One. Miss Russell works hard. She has some dashing costumes, going from a red costume to green, then to purple and gold, then to white. She sings well. Went good at Sunday matinee—much better Sunday night. Act open next week.
14 minutes full stage. Man and woman. They do a lot of clever things, play guitar and mandolin, acrobatics, bat and stick juggling and bicycles. Very clever; see fast work at the finish. Good opener.
Orchestration and stereopticon showing of the famous singers and composers of negro songs from 1830 to date. Simultaneous with the music the slide show the singer or composer who was prominently identified with the selection. This feature is the work of Mr. Chas. Lovenburg and it proved of interest to our house the majority of which remained to the finish same.
Three men in comedy bar act that made quite good. Many laughs and a good strong finish. Thoroughly O.K. Terrace in 5. 6 minutes.
In “After the Game”, a singing and talking stunt. Made a very favorable impression tho [sic] not a hit. The singing was especially well received. By no means a bad act yet not anything out of the ordinary. Some applause and a fairly good finish. Will no doubt attract to some extent on account of the reputation of Dooin. Street in one. 20 min.
Well known hypnotist who does a corking good act. The comedy was received with shrieks of laughter, the applause was cyclonic, and the more serious episodes were very attentively received. The act was good the last time four years ago, but he has made remarkable strides forward, and he really stands alone for a number of this or similar nature. Very strong finish. C.D.F. in 3, 41 minutes.
A genuine master of the accordion. Plays classics and popular numbers and surely plays them. Made a very favorable impression and finished very strong. Conservatory in one. 14 minutes.
Two men and one woman, sketch “The Visitor”. Gained closest attention making point after point and all in all being a legitimate offering well worth while. Very strong finish. Library in three. 23 min.
