The Japs seem to have a native bent for juggling, and Maruichi Brothers give an extremely clever act, in which, inter alia, one of them sets a heavy tub a-spinning at a great pace, and then balances it high in the air. The same performer shows prodigious power of wrist in the manipulation of a heavy stick of about the size of a quarter-staff. (Music Hall and Theatre Review, December 1900)
