Equilibrist. This man does a lot of hand and head balancing on a pedestal on the style of Sadi Alfarabi. He uses the billiard cues and other objects. He was hampered a trifle this afternoon on account on the fact that his electrical apparatus was not approved by the inspector so that his feature was not quite as effective as it otherwise would have been. That he will remedy himself. But as he was, he did a very good act indeed, and is well worth the money we are paying him. 12 min, full stage.
