14 PHILADELPHIA B. F. KEITH'S THEAT JUNE 9 9 KINOGRAMS - A good lot of pictures and some funny "Topics of the Day". PEDERSEN BROTHERS - (6 mins.) Doing the same routine they have done for the past year or so. Did fine in the opening spot. MARCONI & FITZGIBBON - (14 mins.) A musical act by two men, using accordian, piano and xylophone. They have a program of popular and classical numbers, well played and finished to a good hand. HENRY KANE & CO. in "The Unexpected" - (19 mins.) A very good comedy sketch with a surprising finish. It is well played, got plenty of laughs and finished to a big hand. MORAN & MACK - (24 mins.) Two black-face boys with a lot of funny chatter that got plenty of laughs. They finished to a big hand in a burlesque boxing bout that kept the house in a roar. CHILSON-OHRMAN - (10 mins.) She repeated the excellent impression made on her first visit here last year, singing several high class selections, and being forced to respond to an exchore. Closed strong. WOOD & WYDE - (18 mins.) A new offering here for this couple and was very well received. It is a dainty satire along the same lines as their old offering with a song and finished with a travesty dance. Closed to a big hand. FRISCO - (22 mins.) starting with a big reception, all his dances were big applause winners and the jazz band was a hit in itself. Frisco was forced to work in street clothes owing to the non-arrival of baggage but his act was a tremendous hit and closed very big, being called back for an enchore bit. JULIUS TANNER - (18 mins.) Scored his usual big hit here. He has a lot of stuff, delivered in his usual magnetic style. Finishes with a recitation that won a liberal amount of applause and he closed very strong. MARIA LO - ( 7 mins.) GENERAL REMARKS - Very good summer show, with a corking novelty in Frisco, surrounded by an excellent bill. whole show went big to a crowded house. CUTS JULIUS TANNER - Eliminate "Skirts tight around the bottom" and expression "What the Hell."
