Kara

Type:
An assistant works quietly, without attempting comedy of a marked nature and aids in the acrobatic part, one of the new things Kara has. With his assistant at a head balance he juggles four hats. Another new and pretty trick is a pool ball rack, having about ten compartments, with an opening top and bottom. Balancing this on his forehead, Kara throws the balls into the top, catching them as they come out of the bottom, after traversing the entire rack in extended Z fashion, and continuing for some time. Another is while juggling two knives and an apple Kara splits the apple exactly into two pieces, without stopping the regularity, continuing with the four objects thus obtained.
He is an easy, graceful worker, his juggling with balls, doubly and single handed, being very deft. Kara is scoring most decidedly; the audience likes his work and the sixteen minutes spent by the juggler on the stage speed away quickly.
