Singing and coon shouting.
Marie Russell, with her black-face singing, is evidently a favorite at the Greeley Square, as she was given a reception on her entrance. She entertained acceptable with four songs. Her brown makeup is very artistic and she deceived those who did not know her until removing her gloves.
