XVI BIJOU THEATRE, WOONSOCKET, R. I., Thursday, Friday and Saturday, December 7, 8 and 9. MLLE DE PINNA--- Aerial Novelty--dancing, teeth work and also work on the webbing. Don't think much of this act; went exceedingly poor--not a hand. 7 min. full stage. HARRY ANTRIM & BETSY VALE--- In an act styled "Fillings of Fun"--Mr. Antrim does a little of everything; imitating birds, animals, etc., also some whistler. 198 min. olio. Went good. GREATER CITY FOUR--- In an act styled "Mirthful and Harmonious Comedians" four men; straight; sing comedy and harmony songs. Their singing was fair; comedy, rotten; their dress was rather shabby--no style about them whatever. 10 min. in street; went fair. A S Watson BIJOU THEATRE, WOONSOCKET, R. I., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, December 11, 12 and 13. Musette--- "The Dancing Violinist"--(singing and dancing while playing violin), 12 min. in one. Went fair. AL. H. WILD--- In Songs, Stories, Imitations of birds and animals; also, Yodling--appearance very neat; 11 min. in street; Went good. CHARLES AHEARN AND HIS CYCLING COMPANY--- This act is a very funny one--and went big with the audience--They ride all manner of wheels-- they worked under a disadvantage on account of our stage being rather small, but did the best they could and surely got us some business. 10 min.
