the stage. during which the comedians
provided a large quantity of enjoyable
humOr, the vocalists furnished some new
music. while the chorus displayed some
very handsome costumes.
The olio included such well-known rer-
formers as the Three Swans, comedy
acrobats; Swift and Huber, black-fac
comedians: Sullivan and Inman. singers
and dancers; the Hoovers, change artists
and juggIers; Ed and Eolla White, clever
athletes; Kessner and Reid. in. songs and
dances. and Margie Tebeau, skiliful gun
and baton twirler.
A decided feature OF the bill was the
appearance of Miss Bessie Stanton in a
series of poses that were artistic and IN
usually pleasing. They were much tet-
ter presented than the average seen in
similar performances. and Miss Stanton
revealed considerable ability and grace
in her work. The concluding burlesque
was THE Belle of Frisco" Matinee daily.
