Aggregation of Spanish dancers and singers. Makes a good flash and pleased; full of atmosphere. Senora Lola Bravo deserves especial mention for her dancing. Act went very nicely.
Arthur Deagon:- 23 min. in one.
Mr. Deagon with his songs, stories and acrobatic dancing held this spot well, doing a burlesque on the Spanish Revue.

Miss Chandler, assisted by Sidney Landfield at the piano, has a good line of new songs which went as well as any single of this kind that we have played in a long time. Closed strong.

This is a very novel and pretty juggling act and makes a fine closer.

Kindly omit word "Hell."

Kindly omit expression "My God".
Remarks:- Arthur Deagon changed positions with Swift & Kelly, which improved the running of the show, especially as Deagon is doing a burlesque on the Spanish.
