TEMPLE THEATER, DETROIT, MICH.
Week Beginning Feb. 16th.

FLOOD BROTHERS: Acrobats and pantomimists. They do some very clever work and the act is what might be considered a medium one. 8 minutes full stage and two minutes in I.
CHRIS BRUNO & MABEL RUSSELL: In songs, dances and comedy antics. If they would confine their work to singing and dancing they would go better than they do at present. However, the turn pleases fairly well. I8 minutes full stage, 4 minutes in I.
GILLETTI'S MUSICAL DOGS: There are animal acts to numerous to mention but this one is the king of them all. I8 minutes full stage, 4 minutes in I.
LOUIS SIMON, GRACE GARDNER & CC.: Presenting the sketch "The New Coachman." There isn't much to this playlet but on account of the superb work of the performers it goes well. 25 minutes full stage.
FORRESTER & FLOYD: A man and a woman who do character and conversational work. They just "get by" and that is all. I5 minutes in I.
THE FADETTE LADY ORCHESTRA: This is one of the greatest acts in vaudeville. It is not only a splendid novelty but a company of modestly-appearing women who play with an accuracy and coloring that moves the coldest auditor to the fever point of admiration. It is a turn that elevates vaudeville and attracts the most refined and intellectual theater-goers. 30 minutes full stage.
EDNA AUG: Singing comedienne. This artist has improved 50 per cent since she was last seen in this city. This is giving her credit limit, for when she was in Detroit last she scored immensely. She is a finished artist. 20 minutes in I.
THE THREE MARVELOUS MERRILLS: Trick, fancy and sensational bicycle riders. They are original, dexterous and perform with an agility that makes them easy winner in their class. I5 minutes full stage.
