165 166 TEMPLE THEATER, DETROIT, MICH. Week Beginning Jany. 26th. BALLERANI'S DOGS: All small dogs that work on a table. They are a great drawing card for thee ladies and children. A very good animal act in our opinion. 12 minutes in II and 3 minutes in I. WATERBURY BROTHERS & TENNY: Three men, two of whom do straight work and the other does black face comedy. A very good musical act. 20 in III and 3 minutes in I. CLARA BALLERANI: A pretty young woman who does a trapez turn. It is one of the neatest serial acts in vaudeville. 12 minutes full stage. NED WAYBURN'S JOCKEY CLUB: This is the second week for this great novelty and it is repeating its triumph of last week. 14 minutes full stage. JAMES J. MORTON: monologist. One of the biggest "laugh-producers" appearing before the public. 17 minutes in 1. BARROWS-LANCASTER CO.: Presenting the sketch entitled "A Jolly Jollier." The interpreters--three men and one woman-- are deserving of a better vehicle. 24 minutes full stage. RITA MARIO: Violin virtuoso. This artist plays with much feeling and expression. She goes with all classes. 10 minutes in 1. LIEUT. CARL NOBEL: A European ventriloquist who introduces walking manakins. It is only a fair turn. It lacks the finish that American acts in the same line have. Pleased only fairly well. 17 minutes full stage and 2 minutes in 1. BROTHERS FREYDO: European acrobats. The hand-balancing of this pair is exceedingly clever. The act got the liberal applause of two large audiences yesterday and deserved it. 10 minutes full stage.
