has been talked about. The newspapers have been particularly favorable.
RAYMOND AND CAVERLEY. 20 mts. in one. An act well known on the circuit. Introduced a lot of new material, both songs and humorous work. All well received. Made their usual hit and closed with big applause, and a little humorous speech. Never were better.
THREE RENARDS. 9 mts. Full Stage. Young lady and young man with one older. The latter works entirely head-down from a trapeze bar, suspending the two by various paraphernalia held in his teeth, -- perch, pulley-rope, rings and revolving bar. Act splendidly dressed and showman-like in every particular. As a closing act, could not be excelled, as it is bound to make a sensation, ranking with the Curzon Sisters for novelty. Closed very strong as it deserved.
KINETOGRAPH. With the Fleet in Frisco. One of the most interesting and photographically brilliant films we have had for a very long time. Runs 14 mts. and worthy of a good hand. II. For Kate's Health. A good comedy film.
MASTER WILLIE FLOYD. A Little boy, six years old, from Oklahoma. Came here with Delegation to present to the City the new Oklahoma Flag. The boy has a remarkable memory and a good delivery. Was put on this afternoon as a novelty. Was well received.
LA ROSE AND LA GUSTA. 12 min. Full Stage. Two men and a slack wire. Use table, hoop, chairs and other paraphernalia. One man holds one end of the slack wire and the other performs various feats of balancing. Got a good hand after each feat. La Rose uses himself as a pedestal in various ways. Closing feat got a good hand.
KING AND BAILEY. 12 min. in one. Fairly good coon act, both working hard to make good. Good selection of songs and dances.
THE CHING LIOS. 11 mts. Full Stage. This is a very good act from a three-a-day standpoint. The action moves swift, and their tricks are clever. Well costumed and paraphernalia is up-to-date. Received considerable applause. A local pair that need encouragement.
GENERAL REMARKS. A good warm weather show at a reasonable price, and seemed to please throughout.
