132 TEMPLE THEATER, DETROIT, MICH., OCT. 8, 1906. MCCREA & POOLE. MCCREA is a sharpshooter. He has all others, Col. Bordeverry included, beaten to a frazzle. He shoots with remarkable precision and rapidity. It is truly a great act. 7 min. FS. THE LABIKANS. Comedy acrobats, assisted by an intelligent black-and-tan log. This act is only fair and if it were not for the dog it would hardly get by with our audiences. 8 min. FS. MISSES LYNNE, FAYE & YOUNG. A fairly good act of singing and dancing. The girls are comely and their songs are well selected. 13 min. in one. BRUNO & RUSSELL. They presented their old act here, and it went as well as ever. Miss Russell appears to grow better as she grows fleshier, and Bruno appears to grow better as he grows thinner. 11 min. FS. 4 min. in one. MANHATTAN COMEDY FOUR. While the singing of this quartet is not up to the highest standard their comedy more than makes up for it and they went away to fine applause. 16 min. in one. HUNGARIAN HUSSAR BAND. About 35 members in a grand programme. This band is handsomely uniformed and created a genuine sensation. It is one of the finest musical acts ever brought to vaudeville. Open FS. go to one and back again to FS. 23 min. CLIFFORD & BURKE. They gave us the same blackface act as heretofore, and the audience appeared to enjoy every bit of it. 17 min. in one. THE THREE [CLAERES? GLAERES?]. Two and and a woman in a horizontal bar act. This act was on the whole disappointing. 8 min. FS. KINETOGRAPH. "The Dog Detective" is a very good picture
