To everyone on the list. I have a few photocopies of parts of pages of the theatrical newspaper "The Era" and The Music Hall.I thought of sending some of the entries to the list.I am unable to determine who the authors were as there is no mention of them but if anyone has any connection with the original authorship I would be happy to hear from you as I have searched for copyright with no success. I think you will find the entries full of information about our theatrical ancestors and they can be very amusing. 13 March 1896 Empire Palace,Limited.(Mr.J.Wynes,manager.--The Zanettos are a really wonderful troupe of jugglers.The dexterity and judgement they show in the manipulation of balls,heavy knives,plates,torches,etc,fairly brings down the house.The chief of the troupe,a few weeks ago,performed the wonderful feat of catching a turnip on a fork held between the teeth,when dropped from Clifton Suspension Bridge,a distance of about 270 feet.Ada Alexandra and her company,in "The Mason,"keep the audiences in roars of laughter.The sketch is well written and acted.Prof.Harcourt,"The Card Demon"."mystifies the audience with his wonderful palming and card tricks.As an encore,he gives nightly a solo on the bones.Mr. Lester King the baritone,has a very fine voice,which is heard to the greatest advantage in "The Lost Chord".Miss Annie Denber,who is deputising for Miss Ada Vita,is a very pretty dancer,and she is very well received.Charlie Chaplin caught on at once with the old favourite "Dear! Old Pals"and is going very strong.Miss Lily Warner possesses a very sweet voice.Stannard and Lyons,song and dance artistes,complete the bill.Mr.Cartmel's orchestra,this week,is giving us for an overture,"Polka,De Concert,"written by himself.
