3 shows, 10 min. in one—This man is an artist in his way, but we have never been able to see him in this house since he began working in white face. When he did his old act in blackface and sung and talked, he went quite strong, but today he was practically a frost, and only did 6 minutes in the afternoon show. I am going to read the riot act to him, and if he will not give us what we want, will cut him out.
