DIDA. I think this act will draw money and to me it is the most mysterious thing in the way of illusions that I have ever seen. The "creation" of the first woman leaves one a little disappointed but the second one adds material strength to the act and is bound to make talk. 11 min. full stage, 2 shows.

Loney Haskell. This man had an awfully stiff place and went only fairly well. I am under the impression that he will go better tonight and the rest of the week as we had a very "tough" audience this afternoon. 16 min. in one, 2 shows.

Jocelyn Trio. Trapeze act. Two men and a woman who work in white costumes against a crushed purple background. Very pretty act although the work itself is not remarkable. 12 min. full stage, 2 shows.

Biograph. Good collection of views.

Claflin Sisters. Singers and dancers and character changes: one of the girls doing comedy Dutch and the other Irish woman. All right in an early place in the three a day section. 12 min. in one, 3 shows.

The whole show went much better at night and Blind Tom made a tremendous hit.
