Keith-Albee managers' report book, November 28, 1904 - August 28, 1905

Apge 155a

IRVING JONES:- "The Man with the Green Coat." He had them laughing from the start, and was one of the hits of the show. Street in one. 2 shows. 19 minutes.

THREE KEATONS:- Acrobatic comedy. The act is improved a little. Screams of laughter throughout. Buster's impersonations caught the house as usual. Full stage. 2 shows. 26 minutes. Close one.

CHUNDA HULA:- in "The Dream of the Orient." Presents 4 illusions, each a capital one. The act can be considered good. Although, the only trouble is that he has no personality. He held the audience to the finish. It is one that will create a talk, therefore received very little applause on the finish. Have suggested a few changes which I think will improve the act, and make it a winner.

BIOGRAPG [BIOGRAPH]:- "The British Zouaves," Good comedy.
"Kaiser Wilhelm," "
"Trained Baby Elephant," "
"A Mighty Industry." It is a panorama of a Pittsburg shop. Very instructive. Good photographically. 
"Midwinter Bathing." Quite novel. Good picture.

NOTES:- The show is a good one and the best we have had for several weeks, rather disappointed in Mary Shaw's act. Bert Coote scored big with Mayme Remington, Jewell's Manikens, Lucy Clarke, and Irving Jones following closely. The show should be a winner on the week.
