Helen Gleason & Co.
In “The Submarine Attack.” A very good sketch, very well played. In the small houses they could be used as a headline act. 13 minutes F.S.
O’Neil & Walmsley
These two men got a lot of laughs with their horseplay stuff, I don’t know how they will go with the regular audience, but the holiday crowd liked them. 13 minutes in one.
Steve Freda
I don’t care much for Mr. Freda, neither did the audience. He has rather a fresh manner on the stage which is offensive to people of refined tastes. His Guitar playing is fair, some of his stories are pretty good and some of his songs are quite blue. 16 minutes first show was cut down to 12 minutes, in one.
De Witt Young & Co.
Young is a very good juggler and presents his work in a showmanlike manner. The company consists of a young girl who hands him the objects. 8 minutes F.S.
Howard & Fields
Assisted by Oscar Lee in “The Ragtime Dining Car” — A Minstrel Novelty; two blackface; special setting representing a dining carl catchy songs, a little dancing and lots of witty saying which went over big with the patrons; 20 min.
Brown & Jackson
“At the Boathouse” — man and woman in a comedy skit with singing, talking and dancing; special drop representing a boathouse; 17 min.; went good.
Mcrlin
Vaudeville’s Most Popular Accordionist” Plays several popular airs on the accordion — nest appearance — 10 min. in one; went good.
Gus Edwards’ Song Review
70 min. This is quite the most elaborate production that Edwards has ever made for vaudeville. He has an excellent cast of principals and a liberal outlay of money is shown in the costuming and staging which will compare favorably with any two Two-Dollar production. The act was very well received and at the finish of the big patriotic finale, there was a big round of applause.
Cummings & Mitchell
19 min. this is a new kind of “nut” act and was a big laughing hit. It consists of a lot of knock about comedy with a couple of good songs and a dance or two, the girl lending able assistance to the nutty comedy work of the man. Kept the audience laughing from start to finish and closed to a big hand.
Makers of History
11 min. A posing act by men who impersonate prominent characters such as Washington, Jefferson, McKinley and others. The posings are well done and each was accorded a good hand. It is a novel offering.
