I think these men are a thing of the past, as far as vaudeville is concerned. They don’t go nearly as strong as they did the last time, and that engagement was weaker than the present one. Their songs are not as good as they were and the novelty of colored men doing an act of this kind is worn off from repetition. They simply got by nicely and that is all. 20 min, open in three, close in one, 2 shows.
