CLEVELAND, OHIO August, 24th, 1908 Ned S Hastings. MULLER, CHUNN? & MULLER. 3 men. In 4. Time 9. Hooprolling. The act is neat, fast, and shows plenty of new material Interesting all the time, some of their complicated tricks drew big applause. MILLS & MORRIS. in 1. Two young women who present a pleasing B.F. act of a minstrel character. Time 14. One eccentric dance, very fine. The act is of medium strength with fair comedy and excellent songs. CONN, DOWNEY & WILLARD. Special interior in 3 1/2. Time 15. 2 men, 1 woman. Offering an Irish-American comedy, "The Doings Of Dr. Louder." The act goes well, although the humor is commonplace, and the finish is weak kneed. T. NELSON DOWNS. "The King of Koins". Time 13. In 1. Mr Downs is a very clever manipulator of coins, and makes an interesting diversion out of this ancient form of amusement. His manner is pleasing and he has plenty of good comedy. Two card tricks, good. GUS EDWARD'S COUNTRY KIDS. Opens in 4, special rural exterior, closes in 1. Time 22. 4 youths, 5 girls. Much life Edward's other attractions, consisting chiefly of songs, ensemble and solo. The act is lively and runs smoothly, and scored a big here. CHARLES MACK & CO. 3 women, 3 men. In "Come Back To Erin." Special F.S. set, very attractive. Time 15. This is really a song-sketch with an Irish setting. The various characters are well acted, and the singing is good. It went very well, and drew two curtains Monday afternoon. RALPH C. HERZ In 1. Time 27. In songs and characterizations. Herz is finished, effective, and is fortunate in possessing a clear and steady enunciation that gets his material over the footlights in great shape. He is the hit of the show and "reached" all classes in the audience. OLYMPIA DESVALL And a male assistant who does most of the work. Time, 10. Trained dogs and horses. M'lle Desvall has a stunning appearance and wears swagger gowns. The act is dainty, and attractive, but not sensational or very much out of the ordinary run of equestrienne acts. THE KINETOGRAPH.
