TEMPLE THEATRE, DETROIT, MICH. 
Week of Oct. 9, 1905.
LE ROY & LEVANION: Comody bar performers.. This is just a fair opening act. 8 mins. F. S.
MIRZL VON WENZL : Billed as the Tyrolean Wrbler. This woman has only a fair voice and is somewhat hard and unmusical but she got by all right. 8 mins. in one.
DEWITT BURNS & TORRENCE: Presenting "The Awakening of Toys". Yhis is one of the prettiest comedy act that we play. 13 mins. F. S.
JULIET WOOD & FRED RAY: They present an act similar to Jules & Ella Garrison. The act is what I would call a very good one. 14mins. with plus plush.
LOUIS SIMON & GRACE GARDNER& CO. Presenting "The New Coachman". This act was a scream from start to finish and a hit with all parts of the house. 30 mins. F. S.
CECILIA LOFTUS:- This famous woman presented several impersonations of famous stage celebrities, and sang three songs. She was very nervous at the opening matinee but the evening performance she finished strong. There is no question as to her drawing powers and there is no question as to her pleasing the better element of our audience.
SIDNEY DEANE & CO.:- Presenting &Christmas on Blackwell's Island". This singing act while it is a novelty is not, to my mind, up to the requirements of this theatre. The voices of the quartette are not the best we have had here. 20 mins. with drop.
HASSAN BEN ALI'S ARABS:-The greatesst ground tumbling act on the vaudeville stage today. 8 mins. F. S.
