PITTSBURG, PA. GRAND OPERA HOUSE. NOV 25th, 07.
BEAN & HAMILTON - Barrel jumpers. 12 min. full stage, wood. A fair act in the three a day section.
NAOMI ETHARDO - Equilibrist - 10 min. in two. Just about gets by in the three show section.
MIGNONETTE KOKIN - Olio in one. 12 min. Singing and dancing act with moving pictures showing her changing costume. A very good act. Would make good on any bill as late as nine o'clock.
KEEFE & PEARL - Harpist and singer. 14 minutes, street in one. Going very big. The song of Pat Keefe is especially good, getting several encores at each performance.
BERT LEVY - Cartoonist. 16 min. Kitchen.
Not as good as on his first appearance here. If Mr. Levy would stick to his cartoons and cut out some of his silly passages to the audience his act would be much improved. H certainly has a novelty and was an enormous hit here last season. During his engagement here this week he just got by nicely.
BOWERS, WALTERS & CROCKER - "The Three Rubes. 12 min. full stage, garden, closing in one three minutes.
A very good rough comedy act which causes laughter all the way through.
SALERNO - Juggler. Palace, full stage 13 min.
Doing very well for us. This is his third engagement here and while he did not pleases as well as on his previous engagements, he did very well and I consider him among the best in the business.
EVA TAYLOR & CO. - "Chorus". 25 minutes, interior, full stage. A very good comedy, very well played.
AMELIA SUMMERVILLE - Olio in one. 12 min.
It is four years since we have played Miss Summerville and I am content to have four years between each engagement.
GALETTI'S MONKEY COMEDIANS - Wood, full stage.
This is a very good act when they are working right bit it is very uncertain - very often giving a bad performance.
HAWTHORNE BURT - 12 minutes, street. Singing, talking and eccentric dancing. 
This act repeated its success of last season.
