3. ---(2)---- Thorne & Carleton: A mighty good act, but too far down in the bill this afternoon. From reports I was led to believe that this was the strongest act on the bill. While it went fairly good, they failed to make an impression. Thorne did not understand the conditions and wanted to close,-not because of his place on the bill, but on account of his failure to "make good", as he termed it. Will change the show around, which will benefit him. 16 min.-full stage-closed in one Bard Brothers: One of the best acrobatic numbers we ever had. 9 min.- Kinetograph "From Leadville to Aspen." A series of panoramic views, introducing a fake "hold-up" and several comedy scenes. Interesting and pleased. "The Supoena Server." Good comedy The Be-Anos: comedy contortion act. The contortion work of the man is very good, but the comedy end of it just about gets by. Alright for an opener. 13 min.-full stage- 3 shows
