131 (---2---) YOUNG SANDOW & LAMBERT: The former bears strong resemblance to his namesake, both in face and figure. Open with some posing in a cabinet after which they give some exhibitions of lifting and instead of employing the usual heavyweights, lift each other in various poses. A good act of its kind, but about $25.00 overpaid, I should say. 16 min.-full stage-2 shows MATTHEWS & ASHLEY: Presenting about the same line of material as on their former appearance and as usual made a decided hit. 18 min. in one. COUNT DeBUTZ & BROTHER: 2 men, one working straight and the other making up as a burlesque count in a bicycle act. Not much new work was shown, but they seemed to hold down this spot in good shape. 12 min.-full st-2 COOPER & ROBINSON: Well known team of colored entertainers, who duplicated their previous success here. 12 min. in one HARNDIN'S ELECTRICAL BALLET: "STARLIGHT" Described last week. While this is not the kind of an act to create enthusiasm, I think the audience were duly appreciative and this was evidenced by their remaining until the fall of the curtain. 6 min. KINETOGRAPH: "The Fakir and the Footpads" Did not see "Mephiato's Son" " " "
