NORA BAYES:- Singing comedienne. Grand appearance, splendid selections, each strongly applauded. Drapery in one, 2 shows, 11 minutes.

MRS. ANNIE YEAMANS & LOUIS WESLEY:- Singing, dancing and talking comedy. Mrs. Yeamans received the biggest applause, when she appeared than any other artist we have ever had here. The act does not amount to anything, merely the drawing power to her name. Full stage, 21 minutes, close in one, two shows.

WARD & CURRAN:- Presenting the comedy, "The Terrible Judge". The act remains the same as when last presented. One big laugh from start to finish; always goes well here. Full stage, close in one, 32 minutes, 2 shows.

LEIGH BROTHERS:- Equilibrists. One man does all the balancing and performs some clever work. The other works in eccentric makeup, does the comedy, which is always only fair, although he does some good acrobatic work. The act is a good one. Full stage, 2 shows, 11 minutes.

BIOGRAPH:- Across the Manhattan Viaduct: Good,
Tapping a Blast Furnace: Good,
The Seven Ages: Good,
The Bounding Bed: Good.
