Variety (Mar 1906)

VARIETY ANOTHER WINNER! JOSEF YARRICK (Originator of THE MAGIC KETTLE) has juit completed another novelty, a SCIENTIFIC MYSTERY. This act consists of a series of interesting Scientific and Magioal Problems, introducing "The Aerial Couch," Magio Kettle (it boils on ice), Enchanted Candles, the Mystio Vapor, and other new and startling mysteries never before seen. It will be presented in the same artistic and finished manner that made the Magio Kettle famous and produced so many imitators in all parts of the world. I own, control and manage this act exclusively. Managers, book the original. Don't wait for inferior imitation. Am now ready to accept immediate time. Three people with the act. For particulars address JOSEF YARRICK (care of Beadle) 1193 Broadway, New York, or Your Agent Have just finished 3 weeks on the Family Theatre circuit. Manager D'Esta says: Mr. Yarrick, my patrons were well pleased with your act and spoke highly of it. You gave good satis- faction, "Shows you how the wind is blowing."

NOTE.— The Bowling Is making a Whirlwind finish of dramatic offerings preparatory to entering the vaudeville arena last of the month. Two Irrespon- sible stage hands connected with the Dowllng, one with a huge hammer In his hands, attempted to assault Manager Iiardle of the Crystal March 5. The affair occurred in the heart of the business district, and as a score of witnesses testified, was wholly without provocation. One of the hood- lums received a series of lightning uppercuts that muile him see several more planets than astrolo- gists deserilte, while the other suffered the natural consequences of a solar plexus blow. Needless to add Mr. Iiardle was permitted to proceed without further Interference. REVILO. 0L0VER8VILLE, N. Y.
