Al Barnes and Company opened the bill, the company being a woman in clown garb attempting comedy. Barnes went through a routine of magic tricks, the tricks being exposed by the woman, most of the conjuring easily detected by the audience before the tip-off. He has several good tricks and got a lot of good laughs, but his finish was weak and he walked off, the audience not knowing the act was over.
