B.F. KEITH'S HIPPODROME.
Sept 26th 1910---Cleveland, Ohio.    Ned Hastings.
TUSCANO BROTHERS.
Roman battle axe throwers and jugglers.a,novel variation of the old club throwing idea. In 3 special back drop. Well received.
SWOR & MACK.
2 men, black face. Time 14. They stall a little too much. Their poker and dice throwing pantomime is great. Dancing fine.
ALFRED KAPPELER & AUDREY MAPLE.
F.S. Special. Time 18. A rather ridiculous act in which the history costumes and customs of Rome and Greece are confused. Maple sings well which is far more than can be said for her partner who is very mediocre.
THE HANLONS.
4 men. Time 18. Special F.S. Wonderfully clever comedy pantomime scoring a bit hit.
JULIUS STEGER & CO.
Time 28. F.S. Special. Time 28. 2 women and 3 men. "The Way To The Heart." A decided improvement over "The Fifth Commandment." Dialogue, acting and lines are natural for the most part and the story is vitally interesting. It is free from the absurdities of the former Steger sketch and decidedly more artistic.
4 MELODY MONARCHS.
4 men. In 1. Time 12. 3 men sit at pianos and play in spanking fashion both "popular" songs and compositions of better grade. In between they play accompaniments for a clever young singer who "gets his material over" in electric fashion. In happy sponteneity the act suggests the Three White Kuhns.
TOM NAWN & CO.
2 men 2 women. 2 special scenes. Time 25. A comedy treatment of the theory of reincarnation which is a scream. A remarkable act in which interest never lags. "When Pat Was King."
BILLY GASTON & ISABEL D'ARMOND.
Time 20. In 1. They sing and dance about in amusing fashion. They have abundant bright material and know well how to entertain. Miss D'Armond's petite personality helps out a lot.
PAUL SPADONI.
F.S. Spadoni shortened his act owing to the great length of this bill. He is clever as ever and injects good comedy into his work. He carries a man assistant.
