o'clock. 15 mins. Palace in 4.

THERESE DORGEVAL-GHR-2-Operatic singer. This lady has an attractive personality; is well gowned and possesses a good voice. She caught our audience with her first song and was well applauded for each number. As good a single straight singing turn as we play.10 mins. in one.

PAUL VALADON--YYH-2- Magician. This man was an agreeable surprise. He received the first advance applause of the day; held his audience through and closed strong. His tricks are good. He works quickly, and his patter to-day was quite good comedy. Good act for this house. 27mins. C. D. F. 3, Close in 1.

WORLD AND KINGSTON--GNH-2- Man and woman in same act [NH?] they have played over circuit before. World went very well in his tramp specialty and the singing of Miss Kingston pleased. Good act. 23 mins. C. D. F. 2.

NINA MORRIS & CO.--YNH-2- Nina Morris, supported by Arthur Hoopes and Sumner Gard in a melo-dramatic comedy sketch entitled," "A Friend's X Advice". Miss Morris is clever and her support excellent. The sketch is apparently written for laughing purposes only and with that end in view is a success. The laughter this after-noon was practically incessent and Miss Mor is gained frequent applause during the action of the play. Mighty good act. 18mins. F in 3.

BEN WELCH--GHR-2- Hebrew comedian. For our audience this amn is as good as his brother Joe. The laughter and applause hit of the show. Went very strong indeed. 16 mins. in 1.
