Cole & Johnson. I think these men are a thing of the past, as far as vaudeville is concerned. They don't go nearly as strong as they did the last time, and that engagement was weaker than the present one. Their songs are not as good as they were and the novelty of colored men doing an act of this kind is worn off from repetition. They simply got by nicely and that is all. 20 min. open three, close in one, 2 shows.
Mouliere Sisters. Horizontal bar performers,and an unexceptionally fine act for women. 7 min. full stage, 2 shows.
Raymond and Caverly. In an extremely hard position on the bill, with the show seventeen minutes late, they made a decided hit this afternoon. They have got quite a little new material which the audience seemed to like very much. 17 min. in one, 2 shows.
Five Mowatts. Unexceptionally the greatest club-juggling act I ever saw. 8 min. full stage, 2 shows.
Biograph. Didn't get an opportunity to see in the first show, will report later.
