Princess Rajah

Location:

Type:
A “Salome” dance. She does use the head of Poor John though, but in an entirely different manner than the other dancers. Rajah has the head pasted to the seat of a chair, and when tired of wiggling around it, she picks up the chair, head and all, in her teeth and gives John’s upper extremity a merry-go-round.
The Princess was well liked at Henderson's, and was evidently a drawing card, for many left as soon as she had finished.
