Temple Theater, Detroit, Mich., May 7, 1906.
VALDARE TROUPE
Five girls and a boy in a very good bicycle act for the money it gets. 10 min. F. S.
MILLS & MORRIS
These two young women do not appear to go as well as when first here. 11 min. in one.
FERREROS
Musical clown instrumentalist with an educated dog. The act is quite a novelty and was well received. 12 min FS. Cannot close in one.
KENNEDY & ROONEY
This act is improved a whole lot and was one of the big hits of the bill. 17 mins. FS. 6 min. in one.
LINDEN BECKWITH
A fine looking woman singing in a frame to represent a singing portrait. Her selections were excellent and the act made a hit. 14 min. in two. Close in one 3min.
MIDGLEY & QUINN
This act has depreciated materially in value as Miss Quinn cannot be compared to Gertrude Carlisle. A great deal of the comedy has been eliminated to give Miss Quinn a chance to show her voice which isn't anything to brag about. 17 min. F. S.
WALTER C. KELLY
As good as ever, and that is about as good as you get 'em in this line of work. 17 min. in one.
MAY BOLEY & POLLY GIRLS
This act is much inferior to the Broomstick Witches, the City Girls. It is very much overpaid. 18 min. F. S.
KINETOGRAPH-scenes in Italy are very fine.
