Report on Show, Keith's Theatre, Providence, R. I., week of
Charles Lovenberg, Manager.)


Agoust Family. There is no gainsaying that these people are a great bluff in everything but their artistic finish. Not one of them is in the slightest degree a clever juggler but they make the people believe that they are very fine before they get through with them although they didn't make the hit which their salary demands. There is no reason, in my mind, why they should be getting within $300 of the figure they are. 18 min. full stage, 2 shows.

Stuart Barnes.   This man is unquestionably the star of the bill. He is among the best, if not the very best monologue entertainer we have today. He has a lot of new bright stories and songs rendered in an intelligent manner and made good thoroughly in a hard place on the bill. 16 min. in one, 2 shows.

Galletti's Monkeys.   Galletti this season is giving us the best act he has yet presented. The work of the Monkey playing the chimes is really remarkable and there is a lot of fun in the act besides. 14 min. full stage,  2 shows.

Motion Pictures.   Didn't get a chance to see at this show. If they are not all right will send a report on them later.
