The comedian of Martinetti and Sylvester, however, must be credited with almost an entirely original comedy routine. He is a first rate acrobat, enabling him to do several of the best as well as the most reckless falls seen in this line. The funniest is a dive into a painted lake on the back drop. It has been done before, but never in exactly the same way. Just how he escapes a broken neck is a problem.
Both boys are new to these parts. They will not remain an unknown quantity for any length of time. The turn will undoubtedly become familiar and popular. The only thing that can be said to the detriment of the act is that it has that slight touch of Rice and Prevost it seems so difficult for comedy acrobats to get away from.
