We set about to learn our performance roles as quickly as possible, and happily took on whatever backstage duties came our way.
As expected, I was given a turn as a juggler during the novelty interlude between acts, and I blush to recall that Mr. Kellar was greatly impressed by my ability to handle clubs, balls and sharp knives with equal facility. I also appeared in Japanese garb and make-up during a routine called ‘The Mikado’s Foulard,’ which involved the production of a great many strange i

I made a second appearance—in evening dress, carrying a silver tray— during ‘The Spiritual Decanters,’ a clever puzzlement in which any spirit or liquid called for by a member of the audience was poured from a mysterious jeweled vessel.
