73 TEMPLE THEATER, DETROIT, MICH. Jan. 30, 1905. J. H. Finn--Criticism. GEORGE EVANS "The Honey Boy" more than made good with our audience. He has a bight line of stuff and he is a natural comedian. Although he comes high, he delivered the goods. 18 min. in one. VALERIE BERGERE & CO. Presenting "His Japanese Wife." Nothing quite so dainty, charming and filled with heart interest has ever been presented in vaudeville. It is an act that will long be remembered. 30 min. F. S. THE SUNNY SOUTH This act has a pretty southern setting and is participated in by five colored boys and five colored girls. There is a riot of color and a feverish melange of singing and dancing that takes with the average audience. It scored a big hit here. 17 min. F. S. YORKE AND ADAMS This Hebrew team of fun makers scored here as usual. They brought some new stuff and had the audience screaming the whole time they held the stage. 18 min. in one. HOWARD BROTHERS These banjo manipulators went very strong here. However they are not musicians in any sense of the word, but the novelty of their banjo juggling went a long way in their favor. 15 min. in one. O'ROURKE BRUNETTE TRIO This act would fall very flat were it not for a boy who sings a couple of songs in a charming manner. The dancing of the man and woman is not out of the ordinary, and that is all they do. 17 min in one. CRAWFORD AND MANNING This team of alleged comedians opened the show. It is a cheap act and would do for Tony Lubelski's halls out west. 17 in two. Close in one. "THE SUBURBANITE." These kinetograph pictures are a trifle better than we have had for some time. This roster of acts is bound to fill this theater all week. The big drawing cards are Valerie Bergere, who is a great favorite here; M'lle. Charmion, and George Evans, all of whom will have a strong following.
