CHASE'S WASHINGTON

-:Week Jan. 17th, 1910:-

"COWBOY" WILLIAMS Does some pretty good heavy juggling, including that of cannon balls, making it a very acceptable opening number. Worth the money. Full stage.

THE 5 KEATONS We have not played this family for about three years and today they carried off quite a few honors. Made very good in this part of the bill. Full stage, closing in one.

SPENSER KELLY & MARION WILDER. Their voices do not blend well together and for some reason their success this afternoon was limited. In one.

S. MILLER KENT and Co. "SINCERITY". The title is the name of the wife in a new play, produced against the will of the husband who is a broker and much opposed to his wife's stage aspirations. He gathers all his friends together to attend and applaud the play but knowing it to be bad he waits up with her until early morning to read the reviews, one by Allan Dale, and all are scorchers. She is cured. An Irish servant furnishes part of the comedy. Edgar Allan Woolf is the author. This is the first time played and it went along pretty smooth so that by the time New York is reached it should be playing good. Mr. Kent's part does not give him full opportunity to do his best. Full stage.

-:INTERMISSION:-

ALBERT CHEVALIER The same great artist as ever but not worth $2100. to us.
In one and a half.

COOK and LORENZ Eccentric comedians, late[r?] of "The Motor Girl". Well, we have read in some of the house reviews that a certain act was a "riot" and another "a knockout". Whatever those terms mean this act is. Open and close in one.

MAX GRUBER'S ANIMALS Elephant, horse and pony. Splendid animal performance. One of the best. Full stage.

THE AMERICAN VITAGRAPH "A BARROW RACE". Good comic picture.

H. Winnifred De Witt, Manager.
