LOUIS SIMON, GRACE GARINER & CO.:  2 men and 2 women. Presenting the comedy:-"The New Coachman." Lines, situations and business great. Best comedy sketch we ever had. One continual laugh from start to finish. 35 min.-full stage- 2

THE ZANCIGS:  Mind Readers. Held the attention of the audience throughout. 14 min. in one- 2 shows

AVON COMEDY 4:  4 men. In their talking, singing and dancing comedy: "The New Teacher." The comedy is entirely "roughhouse," but they managed to please and were compelled to give an encore. 18 min. in 3 (close in one) 2

ROSAIRE & DORETO:  2 men. Comedy acrobats. On the style of Rice & Prevost. The stunts of the straight man were fairly well done. The sailor's falls cannot touch the original team. A little too strong-going for them down on this spot. Will endeavor to change them. 11 min.-full stage-

KINETOGRAPH:  "The Wolf Trap." Fairly good comedy.
"False Alarm." French film. Good comedy.
"Black and White and Al.  McCutcheon's product." Fairly good.

NOTE:  The show is the best we have had for many weeks. Not a bad act on the bill.
