Page 19a

Pony Ballet. Seven in number. Did much better act than last year. went very strong with the audience. 10 min full stage, 2 shows.
Edna Aug. In imitation of well known people . can be classed as a good act but not worth the salary which we are paying for it. 17 min in one, 2 shows.
James F. Kelley & Dorothy Kent. In a most excellent comedy, singing and dancing sketch, with a little character bit by Miss Kent, a la, Eva Williams. 17 min. closing in one. 2 shows.
Charles T. Aldrich. In his usual act with a number of new opening features. Notably a burlesque on Ching Ling Foo, which is the greatest thing of the kind we have had. Very good act. 17 min. 2 shows.Quigley Brothers. In the best talking act, as well as the most notable ides, in that line, we have had in a long time. Very strong. 2 shows. 18 min. in one.
Will M. Cressy and Blanche Dayne. In their new act, "Bill Biffin's Baby." In my mind, the best thing he has as yet given us. 23 minutes, 2 shows.
Biograph. O.K.
