WASHINGTON, D. C. B. F. KEITH'S THEATER OCTOBER 13, 1913.
R. S. Robbins

DOROTHY KENTON 9 min. in one. Clever Banjoist with good selections. Goes fairly well. 

KRAMER & MORTON 17 min. in one. Blackface. Comedy singing, dancing, and dialogue. Comedy dancing especially pleased. Whole set well appreciated.

JULIA NASH & CO. 17 min. F.S. Entertaining and humorous sketch, "Her First Case". The artist is convincing and splendidly supported. Enjoyed and appreciated.

EUNICE BURNHAM & CHARLES IRWIN Smart combination Pianologue and comedy. Mr. Irwim a clever light comedian, and Miss Irwin also clever. Attractive and pleasing. Act went splendid. 17 min. in one.

WILL OAKLAND & COMPANY 23 min. F.S. Five excellent male singers led by Mr. Oakland in well staged act. This act received much applause throughout and very strong at finish.

ARMSTRONG & FORD 19 min. in ome. Two men. Good comedy act. Went fine in this bad position.

MARIE DRESSLER 13 min. F.S. The magnet of the show. Very funny in grotesque performance, combining burlesque with a pathetic recitation. Got many laughs and much applause.

LYNCH & ZELLER 7 min. open in two, close in one. Great club swimming act. Thrilled the audience and received great hand at finish.

KINEMACOLOR 25 min. "Robin Hood", beautiful romantic comedy picture, a little too long and tiresome towards finish.

Cuts: Will Oakland, "Chicken on New York Ave."
Armstrong & Ford - "Pain in the pants".
