The woman is almost grotesquely painted for a coloured person, and has little to-do
A coloured man and woman, dressed as Japanese.
Excepting the balancing of a bird on a perch, supported by a number of pipes built up to a considerable height by the stems inserted in the bowls, it is not at all new, but somewhat away from the ordinary through the man dancing continually when juggling. If coloured jugglers are considered a novelty the act may be in demand at a fair figure, otherwise it will not rise above the usual juggling turn.
