“The attractive features of the bill were…Johnny Thompson, in a song and dance, who is nightly encored half a dozen times…Madelaine Hardy in burlesque songs, Lizzie Kelsey in serio-comic songs, Master Barney in Dutch songs…The house has admirable ventilation, and the entertainment is always attractive.”
