63 -----(2)------ EXPOSITION FOUR: (Alexander Bros. & James Brady) Three working straight and the other blackface. They are all thorough musicians. Make three distinct changes. The comedy don't amount to much, but that does not effect the act in any way. Their voices are good and do a very neat dancing number for an encore. All of their selections were strongly applauded. 19 min.-full stage--closed in one about 3 min.) KITABANZAI JAPS: Well known. First time here. Quite a novel act. All of their stunts were strongly applauded. 19 min.-full stage DIXON & ANGER: They negoiated [negotiated] this place in fairly good shape. Material is all good and they closed to big applause. 15 min. I one. ZAZELLE-VERNON CO: 2 men and 2 women. In an original comedy pantomime:-"The Elephant." Well known. Excellent closing act. Continual laughter throughout. 13 min.-full stage KINETOGRAPH: "Cold in the Head." Fair comedy. Will take off "Rival Brothers" Rather dramatic. Good "The Snap-shot Fiend" Fairly good comedy COMMENT: The matinee to-day was fairly good. Weather being so very warm, nothing seemed to go. Campbell & Johnson, Zazelle-Vernon Co and Estelle Wordette & Co. were the laughing hits, the applause hit of the show being Exposition Four. The delegation allowed Marshall P. Wilder to pass with very little notice.
