BOSTON SHOW WEEK SEPTEMBER 19, '10.    (R. G. Larsen.)
(Night show.)
CHASSINO. Shadowgraphist. 12 minutes f.s. This is a first rate opening act. One that would make good very far down on the bill.
WRIGHT AND DIETRICH. 17 minutes in one. With new songs and going very much better than when last here.
ROBERT HENRY HODGE AND CO. IN "BILL BLITHERS, BACHELOR." 22 minutes f.s. Hodge is very funny in this sketch and has been going big here in this spot.
MARSHALL P. WILDER. 15 minutes in one. wilder is telling about the same kind of stories as he told in New York. Is going first rate.
JOHN W. SHERMAN'S "ENCHANTMENT." This is a combination of illusions and living pictures, and has been put on for the first time here this week. The first performances were not bad, considering the difficulties which he was up against, and by the end of the week it ought to be in good shape. A great deal depends upon the groupings, which will improve. The idea of having the figures dissolve instead of making the changes with waits between, is novel and keeps the audience guessing. Am going to hold him over for another week with new figures and think by the end of that time it ought to be a good attraction anywhere.
HENRY CLIVE AND CO. 15 minutes in one. This man has played here before, doing the same line of stuff, and he is going as well, if not better than ever.
"THE ROLFONIANS." 25 minutes f.s. Close in one. this act now stands at the head of musical acts. Is going very big here.
HERRING)CURTISS BIPLANE. 20 minutes f.s. With the airship fever on here in Boston, this attraction is proving a winner. After every performance the stage is crowded with people who come to see it at close range.
