Assisted by the Sharp Boys. Black face singing and dancing act, with special plantation scenery. While this is a good act it didn’t have a chance on earth following the Williams and Walker Glee Club. The two acts should never have been placed one to follow the other on any bill. They conflict and that does not express the half of it. In the night show I will split them by four acts. Leonard has a good act, one that would stand on its own merits on any bill, but he was unfortunate in being made to follow the best colored vocal act I ever heard. The dancing of the Sharp boys was liberally applauded. Special set in 4, close in one. 17 minutes.
