Walter C. Kelly. This man has a new idea in monologue which is decidedly attractive and was recognized thoroughly by the audience. Exceptionally good. 16 min. in one, 3 shows. Bailey & Madison. I can't for the life of me understand why this act is considered good and why they are getting a good salary. The early part of their act in which they attempt comedy is absolutely dead. Everything that they do has been copied from other people and they haven't an original idea in the whole act excepting at the finish when the third man comes on as the double. Never play them here again. 10 min. full stage, 2 shows. One serious picture called HIS WRONGS AVENGED which includes a chase and PUSS IN BOOTS which is very good for the children.
