PHILADELPHIA SHOW, JULY 31ST, 1905. (2) H.T. JORDAN.

ELMER TENLY (CONTINUED)-2-GHR- Cut story about Irish woman and husband getting on oar. 15 mins. in 1.

ALBAUGH & MAY-2-MHR- Olive May and J.W. Albaugh Jr. in a one-act play, "Lady Betty's Highwayman." The sketch is a pretty little love story of Colonial days. Good but quiet. The work of both Miss May and Mr. Albaugh is artistic. Held the attention of the house to-day very nicely and received a hearty round of applause at the finish. 21 mins. in 3.

RAYMOND & CAVERLY-2-XRR- German comedians. Well known on circuit. Have new parodies. Went big as usual. Good act. 15 mins. in 1.

ELTON-POLO TROUPE-2-YHR- Three men in a casting act. The work is well done, some of the feats being new here. Applauded throughout. Good closing act. 10 mins. Gar. in 4 1/2

KINETOGRAPH:-
1. OPENING OF THE BASE-BALL SEASON, New York CITY, 1905. Good picture.
2. MOTOR RACING:- Interesting.
3. THE YOUNG TRAMPS- Colored film, excellent from a photographic standpoint, and has some good comedy.

AVON COMEDY FOUR-2-GHR- Four men in eccentric makeups in a hodge-podge of nonsense introducing two songs and a dance. While the act is rough house, and entirely low comedy it kept the house laughing and closed very strong. Good act. 16 mins in 3-close 4 mins in 1
