124 TEMPLE THEATER, DETROIT, MICH. DEC. 11, 1905. 124 THREE FAMOUS ARMSTRONGS - Three men in a comedy-cycle act. A first rate act for this spot on the bill. The men work fast, skillful and sure. 12 min. F. S. DAISY HARCOURT - An English music hall singer, rather rough but quite artistic. She finishes strong with a song "At the Pantomime," that is one of the best bits of character singing heard here in a long time. 12 in 1. MAUD WHITE & STEPHEN GRATTAN - Presenting "Locked Out at 3 A. M." A very clever sketch, very cleverly acted. 18 min. in 3, with drop. PACHECO FAMILY - Five men, a woman and a girl in an ordinary acrobatic act consisting of ground and lofty tumbling. This act is quite inferior to the Allisons and others that might be mentioned. 9 min. F. S. GEORGE WILSON - This well known minstrel was received enthusiastically as he brought a great deal of new material, and appeared to be in the proper mood to deliver it. 18 min. in one. WILL M. CRESSY & BLANCHE DAYNE - Presenting "Town Hall Tonight." It would be difficult to imagine a better vaudeville sketch and as for Cressy and Dayne we consider them among the very best of the high-class vaudeville artists. 24 min. F. S. WORLD'S COMEDY FOUR - Both the singing and the comedy of these four men is below par, and I would not like to see them return. 15 in one. ROSS WENTWORTH'S EQUESTRIAN NOVELTY - This is a showy number as Miss Wentworth presents a pretty picture and has beautiful horses. It is a very fine closing number. 11 min. F. S. "THE TRAIN WRECKERS" - This kine graph film is extraordinary good but not quite up to "The Great Train Robbery," or "The Moonshiners."
