Keith-Albee managers' report book, November 28, 1904 - August 28, 1905

Page 11a

Fred Niblo. Monologuist. This man went very well this afternoon and has a great deal of very bright material, some of it new but most of it he used on his previous trip. While he is very good indeed and goes well with the audience, I think he is getting considerably too much money. 18 min. in one, full stage.
Rose Stahl & Co. This act is well known and needs no criticism from me, and I only want to say, that it was the hit of the show today. 25 min. full stage, 2 shows.
Chas. F. Semon. This man has got some of the brightest stuff and the best presented, we have had in a long time. The act is infinitely better than when played with his partner and he went very strongly. 19 min., open and close in one, 2 shows.
Francis Gerard. Well-known strong man who presents us, this trip, some feats not shown before. 12 min. full stage, 2 shows.
Biograph. The Clock Maker's Dream. Interesting trick picture.
The Widow and The Only Man. Very good serio-comic series.
Battery  A. R. I. M........Local picture.
A Kiss and a Tumble.......Very good comedy.
