San Francisco dramatic review (1899)

September i, 1900 THE SAN FRANCISCO DRAMATIC REVIEW TAe Orpheum /^\ur vaudeville bouse this week presents for beginners tbe boldovers, Bruno Arnirn and Bertba Wagner, in their operatic travesty, followed by two of last week's features, Caroline Hull and Macart's dogs and monkeys. Lavender and Thompson, comedy sketch artists, do a neat little sketch that serves principally to show the wonderful acrobatic abilities of the male member of the team. Lew Hawkins tells a few new stories and sings some of the old parodies. The Newsky family of Russians are on for a second week. The Tobins, instrumentalists of a high order, are new, and can be classed as among the best features ever brought here by the Orpheum. The Yoscary Troupe, at the tail end of the program, do a sensational acrobatic turn that is the star feature of the bill. They are simply wonders and should not be missed. New biograph views complete an enjoyable evening's entertainment. ^The Olympia ""The Hungarian orchestra under the *■ leadership of Conductor Isidore Fenster, are giving some excellent numbers this week. A Strauss waltz — The Apple Feast, a Sousa march — Corcoran Cadets, and an overture, Tambour of the Guard, Titl, are all good and greatly enjoyed by the crowds that throng the Olympia nightly. It's the 6rst appearance of Kalacratus, the novelty juggler, who is pleasing in his performance. The holdovers are all doing good work. Amateur night was a great success. The living statuary is still the great attraction. The Chutes ""The Chutes has the usual good pro1 gram this week. La Lista, with her beautiful mirror dance, is a great and perhaps the most fetching attraction of the excellent program. Weston and Herbert do a very pleasing musical act with their various musical instruments. The Malcolms first appearance is a success, presenting On Dangerous Ground. Baby Ruth's coon songs are very taking. Lord and Rowe, the acrobatic comedians, are as funny as can be. Silvia Puerari, the operatic prima donna, sings with great effect, selections with which we are all familiar. The moving pictures are very enjoyable. Fischer s Concert House JWl onday night the new bill at • ■ Fischer's Concert House was received with the usual favor by a good audience. Brooke Eltrym, a young singer with a very promising voice, a pupil of S. S. Partello, was a particular favorite and her songs were greatly enjoyed. John Delmore gave a number of coon songs and dances. Hadley and Hart with some musical instruments made a hit, as did little Verna Felton, a child performer. Children take well at Fischer's, the dainty tots who have appeared there always being sure of rapturous applause. Wonderful things were done by Vic W. Guion, juggler and equilibrist, and Maud Stiel and Eudora Forde were successful in vocal numbers. Moving pictures continue an attraction.

George Johnson, the 'colored plunger," was shot about 8:30 o'clock Thursday of last week by Dave Barton, the colored cake-walker, who, with his wife, are well-known performers in vaudeville. Johnson got a bullet hole in his left leg for paying too much attention to Barton's wife. Side Lights Vita Oil is really the actor's friend. For sore throats or sprains or soreness it is a wonderful and quick relief. The benefit at the Alta Theatre Wednesday night in aid of the Duboce fund realized $139.00, a generous gift from the theatre management. In the dagger scene in A Great Obstacle, which will be seen at the Columbia next week, Clay Clement uses the same weapon employed by the late Charles Fechter when he starred as Jules Obenreizer in No Thoroughfare. The weapon was highly cherished by Mr. Fechter and it is now the property of the property man of the Columbia, to whom Fechter presented it as a memento shortly before his death. He's Getting His Reward Lou Elliott, the busy man, who has been haunting Sterett's for the past two months from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m. finding plenty to do, where others could see nothing, is being amply repaid for his hard work by the magnificent business his Sapho show is doing. Lou is one of the most systematic and best equipped managers operating in this western country. George flooser PROMOTER OF STREET FAIRS Thirty in the Knst.
