shoulder Of a man, and performed
some really terrific phases In the way
of acrobatic balancing and p~osturing,
causing tho slender pole to bend
almost to the breaking point. The
man himself meanwhile very coolly
played on q sort OF Japanese banjo.
The tumbling feats of those three little
Japs were surprising as we'll as comic.
They are extremely flexible, twisting
into all sorts Of shapes and combina-
tions, and at times looking moro like
big tarantulas crawling and galloping
about the stage than they did like hu-
man children. The rope walking by
Otoksan, the lovely Japanese belle.
with the nobby waterfall and tinselled
foretop, was exceliently done. The
rope was about the size Of q mule
halter, and strung from the left hand
side of the stage across the parquette
to the right hand side Of the dress cir
Gle and thence across to the opposite
side-a sort ofzigzag arrangement. She
only used a little parasol In place
of a balancing pole, and "sashayed"
across and athwart and up and down
that rope with the greatest Of ease,
showing herself to be a lady Of high
order of equilibrium. The most sensa.
tional, as we'll as the most meritorious,
part OF the whole, however, was the
performances of Professor Gangero'
Tho Professor Is not remarkable fol
personal beauty, but we think he Is
the most dexterous nan alive. He Is
a miracle In his way. He played will
three big butcher knives after a style
that would be dangerous to any one
else, tossing them In the air In all
sorts of shapes, and never falling to
catch them by the handles as they
came down, and his marvellous manip'
ulation of the bounding balls at tile
close Of the entertainment was alone
worth the price Of admission. He KEPT
the air full of them and caught them
on the end Of sticks held In his mouth,
turning a summersault while the bal
was in the air, and yet never failing
to catch them on the wing or on thu
ground hop. His performances will
those boxes and little brown bottle
were also highly applauded. What
he did was no sleight-ot-hand, bul
simply most marvellous dextertty,
which needs but to be seen to be ap'
preciated. That japanese orchestra,
consisting of banjo and drum, played
on by two ladies, was gay and hit our
musical tympanum to a dot. The ell
tertainment given is even better than
the programme indicates, and no one
fails to get the full worth OF their
money. They announce q varied per-
formance tonight.
