GREAT Coming ATrRAcTIoN.-John
Piper has just effected an engagement
with the great Satsuma troupe Of Jap
ansse, of whose wonderful perform
amces our California exchanges speak
in such glowing terms of praise. and
they will shortly appear at the Opera
House. This famous troupe consists
of twenty performers. including two
women and three children, the small
est of which Is a little girl only four
years old. They are pronounced to be
by far the most accomplished and tai
ented troupe ever visiting these shores.
The san Francisco Figaro thus no
ticcs some of their doings mt the Me-
tropolitan theater. San Francisco:
..O-ho-mo-man-ge, the Hercules OF
the troupe. Is gifted with a powerful
Jaw probably produced by long prac-
tice in pronouncing the outlandish
names of the party. He balances in
credible weights held in his powerful
teeth. and exhibits other amazing feats
Of strength. The woman who walks
the slack wire without any balancing
apparatus. and changes her outer gar

most invisible support. Is a wonderful
balancer. The top-spinnins feats are
extraordinary and almost ~unaccount-
able. The trick Of swallowing a gross
of needles and q lot Of thread, and
splitting them all out properly
threaded, was actually done, the clos
sSt scrutiny failing to detect n de-
rcnt;on in the matter. The tub and
ladder performances displayed mira
cles of balancing. Man-te-un, the little
..Ail Right Of the party is a fearless
ascersionist. and as smart as asteel-
trap: lla-e-Eo. another Q o. SIX
