N. S. Hastings,    May, 4 '08.    Cleveland, Ohio
EMERSON and BALDWIN
2 men, black face comedy and straight. Time 12. F.S. Palace, close in 1. They do a lot of straight and comedy juggling, receiving considerable applause. Their finale of club slinging is great and gets a big hand.
FREDERICK VOELKER
And his wife, a peacherine. C.D.F., closed in 1. Time 20. Voelker is a wonderful violinist. His wife accompanies him at the piano. Their act makes a great big hit, and received an unusually strong encore at the Monday matinee.
KITAMURA JAPS.
Time 17. F.S. Palace, closed in 1. Time, 17. Special elaborate Japanese back drop. Jugglers and acrobats. Make very good with the usual line of interesting Japanese feats.
VALERIE BERGERE & CO.
Miss Bergere, 2 women, 2 men. Time 23. "The Morning After The Play." The same great little actress with the same popularity. She certainly is a magnet in Cleveland.
DAN QUINLAN and KELLER MACK.
In 1. Time 16. Owing to the illness of Mr Quinlan, Mr. Mack went on and did a black face monologue which scored a decided hit with a couple of songs mixed in.
WILLA HOLT WAKEFIELD.
Time 10. F.S. Miss Wakefield sits at the piano and does a sort of cultured monologue. She possesses a pleasing refinement and a jovial goodfellowship which takes hold of everybody, and she made one of the big hits of the bill Monday matinee.
BIG CITY QUARTETTE
In 1. Time, 15. Owing to ilness, it was a trio this afternoon. The three men sang good songs well. They do not screech or deafen the audience. They all possess smooth, agreeable voices and you could have heard their applause for a block either side of the theatre.
LA TROUPE CARMEN.
F.S. Garden. Time 15. 2 women, 3 men. ACrobats and tight wireists. Their work is about on the average for the most part, good but not at all sensational. Their finale of a somersault from the tight wire to a "human pillar" was spectacular and topped their work off with a hurrah.
THE KINETOGRAPH.
