“Great is Tony Pastor and Riggs is his prophet.  This week the numerous patrons of the Oriental Opera House will be regailed with a musical burlesque entitled ‘The Devil and Doctor Faustus,’ and a ballet and a plantation scene and songs innumerable, and a great many other deserving things which we have no time now to mention.”
