TEMPLE THEATER, DETROIT, MICH.
Week Beginning Feb. 9th

REED & SHAW: Fying Ring performers. They do some very good feats and the general impression of act would be better if it were not for the asinine pranks of one of the duo who thinks he is a comedian. 10 minutes full stage.
JOHN DONAHUE & MATTIE NICHOLS: Dancing, singing and acrobatic comedians. They are the best in their line. 8 minutes full stage and four minutes in I.
QUAKER CITY QUARTETTE: They introduce some excellent vocal and instrumental music. They have caught on big in this theater and they deserve all the applause and praise that they are receiving. I3 minutes full stage. II minutes in I.
WALTER LEROY & FLORENCE CLAYTON: Presenting the sketch entitled "Hagan of the Hansom." This playlet has been presented in this city before but on account of is clean comedy and the artistic way that it is being interpreted it is going like a pararie fire. 25 minutes full stage.
TOM BROWN & MISS NEVARRO: Colored performers who bill themselves "The Chinee and the Coon." They are artists in all the word implies. I5 minutes in I.
GERTRUDE MANSFIELD & CARYL WILBUR: Appearing in the sketch "6I Prospect St." A capital vehicle and admirably presented. A big winner in this house. 25 minutes full stage.
TRULY SHATTUCK: Prima donna. An artist who has all of the requisites--symmetry of form, beauty of face and a splendid voice--to make her a prime favorite; which she is without doubt. I0 minutes in I.
