PROVIDENCE. R. I. E.F. ALBER SEPT. 20th, 20

The bill this week is not as good as that of  last week, although it is as a whole a fairly good show. We started off with a good day's business as we did the previous week and I see no reason why we should not continue with good business. 

CHAS. LOVENBERG. 

ROBBIE GORDONE:
Poser. I don't believe there is much value in this act, although the house was well seated, having held off the starting of the show for a few moments for her benefit, there was scant applause and there didn't seem to be much interest. 7 min. full stage. 

HERBERT BROOKS:
Card manipulator. A very good entertainer whose various tricks pleased and he got considerable laughter with his talk. 
18 min. in one. 

FALLON & SHIRLEY:
Young man and woman whose act was a great disappointment. I can't see much to the man, in fact, I didn't care for him with his male partner last season. The woman is claver, but they have no material. The audience cared less for him than I did. 16 min. in one. 

BESSIE REMPEL & COMPANY: 
In a unique fishing sketch which seemed to please thoroughly.
17 min. in three. 

LE GROHS:
xxx Contortionists. The big applause hit of the show. 
7 min. in one.

JANE & KATHERINE LEE:
This act is so well known that the only comment necessary is to say that they pleased thoroughly and indicate that they will draw business. 26 min. open full stage, 3 min. close in one. 

GEORGE MC.FARLAND: 
Mr. McFarland repeated his usual success and he is a great favorite here. 22 min. in two.

GORDON & FORD:
Man and woman in a great laughing act/ The man is as funny a Jew comedian as I know, the woman has a pleasant voice, dresses well and they have good material, and the whole act got over in great style. 15 min. in one. 

ELEANORE PEIRCE & COMPANY: 
Dancing act for which I care very little for and the audience seemed to care for it less. 12 min. full stage. 

CUTS: FALLON & SHIRLEY: Cut "You're a Million Miles From NoWhere When you'r only Holding Her Hand. Do I have to tell my business?

BESSIE REMPEL: Cut the joke as to who was the father of her children.
