Borrowed from an Evening Patriot review, the article claims the Curtis & Ogawa Japanese circus is a "very meritorious addition to the circus world". The Japanese performers fence, tumble, juggle, and top-spin. They are accompanied by a "large company of American athletes." The circus is described as the "only Japanese circus of the kind in America."
