MARYLAND THEATRE REPORT
Baltimore Week of October 4th. 1909
F.C. Schanberger.
ZINKA PANNA = 14 minutes in 1 - A very neat little act, the feature of which is the dancing dogs. Going well.
FREY TWINS = 11 minutes, full stage- This act is scoring heavily, Constant applause throughout and closing with five bows. Good value.
KEEFE & PEARL = 11 minutes in 1 - Well known specialty, Going very well here.
MR. & MRS. FISHER = 21 minutes, full stage- "The Half Way House". A good rural sketch that contains many real laughs. Makes good here.
BOWERS. WATERS & CROCKER = 13 minutes, full stage, close three minutes in 1. This act was one great big scream.
BERT LESLIE & CO.= 17 Minutes, full stage. Another big laughing hit. Going fine.
CARRIE DE MAR = 20 minutes in 1. Miss De Mar made many friends on her last visit here, which she more than doubled here this afternoon. She is a big artistic hit.
ARTHUR HUSTON = 11 Minutes, full stage. Going fairly well in this hard spot.
KINETOGRAPH = Fulton-Hudson Celebrations. All right pictures.
