Type:
2 shows, 19 min. in 1. Blackface singing, dancing and talking comedians. Before this act came many of the people went out, owing to the fact I believe, that they imagined there was nothing big in store for them, but they were greatly mistaken. Had considerable new material since they were last here, and went with laughter and applause throughout. One of the hits of the show much to my surprise. In spite of this, we will be obliged to move them up to give a sort of ‘retainer’ to the closing portion of the bill.
