(2) JAMES J. MORTON: This man received a big lot of advance applause, and he was easily the big laughing hit of the bill. All of his material went with roars of laughter. 11 min. in one. LARSEN SISTERS: European Novelty Acrobats and are a decided novelty. Two fairly good-looking young ladies, who go through a series of rapid acrobatic stunts. Do a few tricks on the horizontal bar and closed with one of them doing a cart-wheel on a platform supported at one end on the back of the other sister. A good act and well received. 8 min.-full st KINETOGRAPH "Poor Husband." Very fakey. Will cut it out. "Horse-stealing." Quite interesting. "The Dream of Rarebit Fiend." One of the funniest pictures of this nature we have had. Made as big a hit as any act on the bill. Good for a run. HODGES & LAUNCHMERE: In their well known singing sketch. Woman's voice is a little off, but they hold their own on their cat duet, which secured some laughs and carried them off to a good applause. 17 min. in one- 3 shows
