16 min. in 1—Blackface talking and singing comedian, who goes very strong in this city, naturally, as it is his home, and stands for a place lower down in the bill than be would be placed elsewhere. He has a fair amount of ability but is conscious of the fact and impresses the audience that way, which militates somewhat against his success. He certainly went strong with our audiences.
