Sa,surn..'s ROYAL japanese Troupe. com
posed OF twenty frs. class performers. have
caused. by their astonishin. trats. a per-
fec, rush to this establishment this week OF
all who delight III the wonderful. SO great
has been the rush of old and young OF both
sexes to see the magic feats. the legerde-
main acts, and acts of great strength.
agility and udroitncss that are performed
by this wonderful troupe in every conceiva-
Bile way. that il has been impossible for the
management to supply all with seats. and
the consequence has been that many have
been content to stand. while others, who do
not find standing room. are compelled
nightly to 20 away disappointed because
their curiosity to see the wonderful per
formers has not been gratiticd.
This has been the case from the com
menccment of their engagement here. and
there is as yet no sign of abatement in pub
lie curiosity to see them. 1t is. therefore.
usclcs. for the press to say anything IN
praise of performances that have thus far
attracted more persons to see them than
can be accommodated This must be taken
a far better evidence than anything we can
say that the japanese troupe is worth
seeing.
