PITTSBURGH, PA. GRAND OPERA HOUSE. APRIL 13th, 1914. THE BRADS. 10 minutes, full stage, Garden. Exceptional contortion work by a very droll comedian and a girl. MARY ELIZABETH. 13 minutes in One. Songs and Stories. Girl with nice personality, good songs, and fairly good chatter. HOWARD'S DOGS and PONIES. 17 minutes, full stage. The same act of past seasons, and, as usual, closing with a whirlwind of laughter. WILBUR MACK and NELLA WALKER. 15 minutes in One. A new version of their flirtation act called, "An Every Day Occurrence." Two neat and clever people with a bright line of dialogue, a few dancing steps, and a couple of songs. JOE & LEW COOPER. 15 minutes in One. Songs and piano accompaniment. Several good comic numbers, well put over. WILLIAM FAVERSHAM & CO. Full stage, special setting, 21 minutes. "The Squaw Man." This is the original version, from which the larger play was evolved. It is very well put on with a fairly good company, and Mr. Faversham is doing as fine a piece of acting as he has ever done in his career. ED. WYNN & CO. 20 minutes in One, special drop and settings. "The King's Jester." A ludicrous comedy, after the fashion of "The Merry Monarch." It gives Mr. Wynn ample play for his bright comedy. He is a real hit, PREVOST & BROWN. 10 minutes, full stage. Bounding table and tumbling. The work of the acrobat is the most remarkable of its kind we have presented. His twisters from the bounding table are little short of superhuman, besides, he is a good comedian. The act is fit for any spot in the bill. MOVING PICTURES. "An Easter Lily." A fine comedy with a seasonable appeal.
