February 15th 1905

Report on Keith Vaudeville Show - Maryland Theater, Baltimore.

Russell & Tylone- Eccentric Comedy and dancing- Fairly good opening act. 15 Minutes in 1.

Edmund Day & Co.- Sketch "The Sheriff", Very good and went will with our people. 27 minutes in 3. They carry full set.

Village Choir - Very good singers. 15 minutes in 1.

Valerie Bergere & Co - Character One Act play "His Japanese Wife". This I consider the very best sketch in vaudeville and one which cannot fail to delight refined audiences. It is wonderfully well acted, beautifully staged and is the most pleasing presentation of its kind I have ever seen. Miss Bergere is more than painstaking and conscientious in its every detail and it reflects upon her and her company the great credit that is really her and their due. 25 minutes full stage.

Boston Bros - The poorest acrobats we have played - 7 minutes full stage

Dillon Bros - Parody singers - A fairly good act 18 minutes in 1

Tchow's Cats - These animals are well trained and the act makes a hit. 15 minutes full stage.

Biograph - Selection of pictures very good.
