BOSTON    KEITH'S    Oct. 20,    9
Kinograms & Topics of the Day:-Fair.
Potter & Hartwell:-13 min. F.S. Spec. Novelty acrobatic offering with plenty of speed, made a fine opener.
Marconi & Fitzgibbons:-14 min. in 1. These boys have a neat musical act, went over very big.
Sully & Houghton:-18 min. in one, Spec. The boy in this act does some very clever dancing, and the talk went over nicely, closing to a good hand.
Larry Reilly & Co.:-26 min. F.S. Spec. This is the best offering Reilly has played here, and went fairly well for a sketch of this character.
Kellan & O'Dare:-19 min. in 1. This man is an exceptional eccentric comedian and put the act over to a big hit.
Kitty Doner & Do.:-24 min. F.S. Spec. Miss Doner has a very pretty offering with a variety of singing and dancing, and went very well at the evening performance.
Elida Morris:-12 min. in 1. Held this spot finely, closing to a big hand.
James C. Morton & Co.:-25 min. F.S. and one. With the same act played on their last visit here. This family went over big.
The Asahi Troupe:-12 min. F.S. Spec. Held the audience very well closing.
CUTS:-Kellam & O'Dare: Please modify wiggle in man's dance, and eliminate the words "bushwa" and "damn", and "gas mask" gag.
REMARKS:-Kellam & O'Dare and Elida Morris changed positions on the bill for the night show on account of Morton and Kellam working so much alike.
