95.
Cleveland, Ohio.    June 8 '08.    N. S. Hastings.
FERRELL BROTHERS.
2 men, one comedy. Acrobatic cyclists. Several entirely new tricks, comedy good. Time 11. Closed in 1.
MONTGOMERY & MOORE.
Open in 3, close in 1. Time 22. Man and woman. Clever and original knockabout comedy, with eccentric dancing and extra good piano stunts. Big hand.
KNIGHT BROTHERS and MARION SAWTELLE.
One man in comedy, resembling Eddie Foy, in costume and general line of work. The trio dance and sing very well and introduce a lot of funny business. Well received. Time 13.
CLAUD and FANNY USHER.
C.D.F. Time 26. Presenting "Fagan's Decision." A great slang sketch full of good situations, many laughs and a touch of sincere pathos that balances the whole well. Miss Usher's Bowery lines went with a scream.
THE MISSES DELMORE.
Open in 1, change to 2 (fancy set), close in 1. A pleasing sister act featuring good songs and instrumental selections. Well received.
KARA. And assistant. in 4 Palace. Time 18. A truly great juggler suggesting in many ways and tricks, the work of Salerno. Kara is versatile and goes from one trick to another with a rapidity that makes a hit. People talked about him going out.
MARION GARSON.
In 1. Time, 13. A beautiful young woman with an unusually musical voice. Her enunciation is poor and detracts greatly from her undoubted talent. Fair hit.
WYNN and LEWIS
In one. Time, 15. College boy comedians. They have a great line of funny talk and their songs are presented with lots of ginger. They were a riot Monday afternoon.
SIX BONESETTIS.
F.S. Garden. 1 woman, 5 men. Time 7. Their showing Monday afternoon was uninteresting and many people walked out on them. However it was extremely hot, and the acrobats were sweaty, which probably accounts to a great degree for their poor work.
THE KINETOGRAPH.
