Good Vaudeville Show at Ellis Theatre Again Tonight.
The Ellis theatre last evening presented Nagle’s Vaudeville Review and in general respects it was the best vaudeville show that has visited this e¥ty for some time. Irvn W. Nagle opened the bill and ndudged in some comedy efforts in white and black face. Of the six numbers two were decided hits, one .being Bernard Winton, the Wizard of the Violin. His numbers were very meritorious and delighted the audience. He carried on a conversation between a “late hour” husband and his indignant Wife; and the words being formed by the movements of the bow on the violin and the conversation could be interpreted by most every person in the audience, Another extremely Clever act was the impersonation of a society wdman in a musical and 'talking act by Devoyle. He had the audience guessing until he removed his wig. He has a good voice, the grace of a cultured woman in his movements and his piano piiayipg and songs were late and clever. Harris and Helena in a comedy skit drew many laughs. The slides of the New York fire department with an instructive talk proved one the features. Kyrogo, troubled with a bad voice, <was unable to show himself to full advantage as the “mtan f mystery.” He passed slips through the audience and asked that any who desired knowledge of the future, information about lost articles, or who were anxious about love affairs write tht question they wanted answered and 1 place their initials on the paper. The questions were collected . and Kyoga made replies. His act promises to be an interesting feature tonight when the company appears for the last time.
