55 ---(2)--- the next time they come around, as they are really too big to play the part. Went fully as strong as the last here, the acrobatic work of the children getting tremendous applause. 22 min.-full stage STUART BARNES: This man was easily the applause and laughing hit of the show, his parodies and monologue going very strong. Nearly all of his material is new and I believe he gave us the best of any act ever presented. 23 min. in one BEDINI & ARTHUR: They had things their own way, the audience laughing at every move Arthur made. Went fully as strong to-day as on former occasions. 19 min.-full stage-closed in one about 2 min NINA MORRIS & CO: Presenting the one-act comedy:-"A Friend's Advice" The company is not quite as good as when presented here before, although it does not effect in any way the value of the act. It went fully as strong as when last here. 18 min.-full stage FIELDS & WOLLEY: They negotiated this spot in fairly good shape. The dialogue of the "trip in an airship" received a big lot of laughs. Thoroughly alright for the money. 19 min. in one. PALFREY & HOEFLER: Comedy Cyclists. Two men. One working straight, the other eccentric. This act is greatly overpaid and not strong enough to hold this place on the bill. Palfrey received some little applause for his trick work. Act is entirely too short. May develop later on, but we cannot pay big prices while they are learning. 10 min. KINETOGRAPH: "Butterly Catching" Good comedy "Floral Fiesta" Quite interesting "How the office boy saw the baseball game" Quite novel. Good comedy
