The act really should be placed in a little less important spot than where I am obliged to give them in order to balance my show. 12 min. in 1, 2 shows. Chas. E. Evans & Co. In a comedy sketch called, "It's Up To You, William". I am afraid this act suffered a little because of the fact that we played the farce called, "There And Back" (last Summer with our Stock Co.) of which this sketch is the last act. The general opinion is that our people played it better than Mr. Evans & Co. It got a great many laughs however, and with Evan's reputation to help, there is no reason to find any fault. 27 min. full stage, 2 shows. Murphy & Frances. Well known colored act which held down this place acceptably. 18 min. in 1, 2 shows. Marsella & Milay. European comedy bar act and they also introduce a burlesque wrestling match which is exceedingly funny. 10 min. full stage, 3 shows. Motion Pictures. O. K.
