SNYDER & BUCKLEY:- Two men, musical comedy. The act contains a lot of new material and many laughs. They always go well here and to-day was no exception. Full stage, close in one, 25 minutes.

FRANCIS GERARD:- Gymnast. Well known over the circuit. Every trick strongly applauded. Full stage, 12 minutes.

HAL MERRITT:- Cartoonist and Mimic. This man was a little late in getting them to-day. He received some applause on his cartoon work, but not as much as usual. Probably playing this house too much. Dp. in 1, 14 Mins.

WENTWORTH TRIO:- Two horses, two men and a dog in a novel exhibition of bare-back riding. An extreme novelty. While the act did not receive a great amount of applause I think it will create some talk. Full stage, 11 Mins.

THREE DUMONDS:- Italian Musicians. As usual this act went very big, the violin solo being strongly applauded. Dp. 1, 19 M.

O'BRIEN & HAVEL: The act consists of O'Brien and Miss Lawrence, in a comedy entitled "Ticks and Clicks", introducing singing and dancing specialties. Some of the situations are entirely new and very funny. The act was the biggest laughing hit of the show. Full stage, 24 M.

GEO. H. WOOD:- Black-face comedian. With nearly all new material. He had a hard place but managed to hold them. Drop one, 23 minutes.

TOOZOONIN ARABS:-- Twelve Arabs, tumblers and acrobats. Best company of Arabs ever put together. They give ten minutes of rapid tumbling, with a few scattered laughs. The act is one big hit. Full stage, 11 minutes.
