“Tony Pastor himself is an established favorite in his comic songs, of which he presents several new ones every week, receiving nightly half a dozen encores.”

“W. Bindley, who reappeared Jan. 15th, deserves creditable mention for his musical performances upon the concertina, harmonicon, musical glasses and other instruments.”
