MARYLAND THEATRE REPORT
Week of January 13th, 1913
MORI BROS.
12 min. full stage. Three japs who do a cracker-jack act. A feature good enough for any spot on the bill.
MURIEL & FRANCIS
14 min. in 1 - The best sister act of the season. Another good enough for a later position.
McKAY & CANTWELL
15 min. in 1 - A good speedy vaudeville act, scoring heavily.
ROBT. EMMET KEANE
14 min. in 1 - English comedian on the same style as Clifton Crawford; splendid personality and good material. Very good value.
JESSE BUSLEY & CO.
20 min. full stage. A return engagement of this act and going better than ever.
BESSIE WYNN
18 min. in 1 - Pretty costumes and poor repertoire of songs. Should have taken a couple of weeks in the wilds to break in her act, instead of using a big time vaudeville audience, and doing herself harm. - Just about gets by.
INTERMISSION
EDDIE LEONARD & MABEL RUSSELL
20 minutes in 1 - A bigger hit than ever.
JOE JACKSON
9 minutes. full stage. Another tremendous hit. Let's get him now for next season, if possible.
HUGHIE JENNINGS and BEN. SMITH
20 minutes in 1 - Jennings gets a wonderful reception at each performance, and the act thoroughly makes good.
HARRY DE COE
10 minutes. full stage. A good sensational finish to a show of almost continuous hits.
