BOSTON SHOW WEEK SEPTEMBER 26, '10.    R. G. Larsen.
(Monday night show.)
MYERS AND ROSA. 12 minutes f.s. Lariat throwers. Very good work. Made a first rate opening act.
OTTO BROTHERS. 15 minutes in one. Doing pretty much the same line of stuff as on the previous visit, and going well in this place.
SHERMAN'S "ENCHANTMENT." 15 minutes f.s. Second week. Sherman has introduced a number of new groupings this week and has greatly improved the act. To-day it went first rate and many of the figures got good hands.
JOCK MCKAY. 15 minutes in one. Hrre is another good act in one at a reasonable figure. Judging by the way he went here this afternoon, it would be safe to put him a good deal further down on a bill.
BALLERINI'S DOGS. 11 minutes f.s. This is a pretty, dainty, and altogether enjoyable act. The dogs are all small and very well trained. Work without any suggestion of whip or command.
MCINTYRE AND HEATH. 27 minutes opening in one. "The Georgia Minstrels." This act has been played here so often that there is hardly a person in the audience who does not know the lines. This afternoon it went fairly well, but there is no doubt that the surprises are all lost. This evening, however, it went big.
H. T. MACCONNELL. 20 minutes in one. I moved MacConnell down to this spot to-night, following McIntyre and Heath, and he got away with it in good shape. The act is certainly a novelty, full of surprises and MacConnell is a clever comedian.
CLARA BELLE JEROME. IN "JOYLAND." 22 minutes f.s. This is hardly an ideal closing act but it makes a pretty picture. There is good lively work and the girls finished well.
