I see in the background a banner for "Hadgie Allie Hindu (Something)."
Correctly spelled "Hadji Ali" and supposed to come From Egypt, he was a remarkable regurgitation artiste.
He could swallow and bring up various objects and his strong finish was when he drank both gasoline and water. He would spit up the gas into a lamp of some kind making it blaze up each time, then bring up a steady stream of water to put out the fire while standing a good fifteen feet away.
As he was born in 1887, he may not have been with the Bill show until the late years if at all.
Hadji Ali's act is on you tube.it's unbelievable !
