for singing. The act is sure to draw money on Primrose's name, if properly advertised. It is not an act that will ever get an unusual amount of applause, but will interest and please throughout. The act went well, with liberal applause.
Myra Amoros-10 mins.-Gar. in 4-A very pretty, well formed, attractive woman, in an act on the swinging trapeze. Her work is out of the ordinary and very good. Excellent act.
Chas. Mildare-15 mins. in one-Whistler and imitator, billed "the human parrot;" whistles without the aid of his fingers, or any other visible assistance, in a most remarkable way. Very good act, and was well received.
Cressy & Dayne-25 mins.-Spec. Set-Second week. "Bill Riffin's Baby." No comment necessary. With the death of Arthur Sidman Cressy ceased to have a rival, or a peer in his line.
Johnson & Wells-12 mins. in one-Man and woman; real coons; regular coon act of singing and dancing; probably better than the average.
Tony Wilson & Wife-10 mins.-Water Landscape in 4-In a corking good bar act, using the bounding net. A very, very good act.
Biograph-12 mins. in one--"Fairyland;" better than "The Trip to the Moon."
