Known as the American Fregoli, and there is absolutely no question but that if this man had proper dialogue and could command different dialects better he would have an act absolutely superior to Fregoli, Beondi, or any of the rest of those fellows. He makes his changes with great rapidity and has more novel ideas I think than ever put forward by either of the artists but he is not able to change the tone of his voice apparently in the least degree, so that the characters he represents are all done in the same tone. As it is, it is a very good three show a day act. 13 minutes open full stage, can close in one if necessary.
