How Waller Played Macbeth.

| lkOW W N1CA 4 Cu MNCUCtus
The Cleveland Democrat tells the
following yarn concerning the manner in
which James Waller played Macbeth III
tina, city recently.
We can't hold in any longer. we must
tell it. We have done our best in en-
deavoring to dispel it from our mind out
of consideration for the families of the
parties, but it was of no sort of use 1t
would occur to us throughout the day
during the discharge of our manifold
duties, and we often wokeup in the night
to take good laugh at it. Convinced,
as we are of the eno:mity of keeping SO
capital joke all to ourself, we have
concluded to present it to a discrimina
ting public. So here it is:
On the morning after the Walters had
delighted a small but select audience at
the theatre in the play of Macbeth, a
friend rushed into our Office, evidently
bursting with some huge joke he had
to relate, for he was violently red in the
face, and the words, as they attempted
to come out of his throat. Lad each of
them hand to band struggle with sort
of elephantine magnitude. At length
having seated himself sufficiently to en-
tighten us as to the cause of his excess
i've merriment. "You know Waller
played Macbeth last night" said he ?
Well this morning heard couple of
chaps, standing on the Algier steps
talking about it. 1t seem they were in
the theatre the night before and saw the
play, which they admired greatly; but
one of them said he thought (pause in
which the next Word is having a side
hold with another snisker) that Waller
must have been drunk, for he left out
several important sentences. His com
panion ask ed him what be omitted. He
replied that he skipped that place where
Macbeth rsshes in and-and-(another
pause. words and snorts beirg engaged
in regular ring wrestle in the narrator's
throat) and exclams-"A horse-a
a horse-mv kingdom for horse !! h a
a-a- !! ha ha! !' Our friend laugh
ed until the types in their cases and
several articles on serious topics were
hopelessly pied. Itwas long time be-
fore he recovered his composure in the
slightest, and then turning his weeping
eyes feebly upon us and speaking in
whisper. rendered faint by reason of his
immoderate laughter. he exclaimed,
''spose the ID food didn't know that
was from King Lea, !''
An hour after, we were found by our
office boy rolled up, under the table, in
bundle of exchanges, with our last will
and testament written with the poker
upon the inside of our hat. Aid was
instantly summoned. and by the intreat-
les of some kind friends we we're per-
suaded to "endure" for space longer.

TERMS OF THE PAPER.
Correspondence ofthe Nevada Journal.
Hrvnrc June 9th 1889


Dir. Editor Ono who is not an
aspirant for political honors, nor bound
by the servile chains of party despotism,
can sec much to abhor in the practices
ofpar:y politicians, whose only apparent
object is the furtherance of individual in
terests and aspirations.
This class ofpoliticians, are standing
candidates for office, and of course are
the leaders of caucuses and conventions,
where they invariably succeed in their
wire pulling proclivities Ignoring entirely
the sentiments of the honest, but less
pretending. NJ political movement
whatever can be made without their
concurrence nor are the dear people
permitted to hold primary meetings
unless they are represented,to guide and
control its actions. These leeches upon
the body polite are not content either
to submit the issues fairly to the people,
but will resort to every species of decep-
ton, nor will they hesitate to import if
necessary plant tools for the dear peo-
pie to endorse for delegates, as was at
tempted in this precinct. After the pri:
mary ordeal has been gone through. and
the ropes fully manned, tie sages of the
party meet in convention and give birth
to a purely National ticket, which they
are compelled to support and to work
for its success with fear and trembling,
lest the political guillotine should at
one fell swoop blot them out forever, If
there are any with sufficient moral cou
rage to examine into the character and
qualifications of the respective candi
dates, and refuse to comply with the
edicts of their party, they are at once
denounced as traitors and enemies of the
political Godhead.
But the man who has voted the
straight ticket for twenty eight years
(but was defeated for County Judge
last year, is National democrat Of the
first water, and has claim upon the
party which good fat Office will only
satisfy. All that is required to obtain a
valid claim. which muss sooner OF later
be satisfied, is to 60 it blind, and swallow
without comment the purely antiseptic
pills Of the Natiomsl democracy.
lhave nothing 10 say relative to the
principles of political parties as now or:
zanized, nor have j any decided prefer;
euees, but do think it time for political
tests to be discarded, when every voter
can approach the ballot box as becom
eth a freeman and enter his yete with
out fear or favor.
Yours &c. FAIR PLAf-

these IN the hands of Special Commits

FRENCH ORDERS OF THD DAY.-Tbe
Emperor was expected to take his de-
parture from Genoa on the 14th, for the
army to whom he had issued the follow
ing order of the day:
"Soldiers come to place myself
at your head to conduct you to the COM
bat. We are about to second the strug-
giles of people now vindicating its in
dependence, and to rescue it from for
eign oppression. This is sacred cause
which has the sympathies of the civil
lied world.
l need not stimulate your ardor-
every step will remind you ofa victory.
In the Via Sacra of ancient Rome, in
scriptions were chiseled upon the MARBLE
reminding the people of their exalted
deeds. 1t is the same to-day. In pass
ing Mondovi, Marengo, Lodi, Castiglf-
one. Arcola. and Rivoli, you will, in the
midst Of shose glorious recollections, be
marching in another va Sacra. Pre-
serve that Strict discipline which is the
honor Of the army.
Here, forget it not. There are no
other enemies than those who fight
against you in battle. Remain compact,
and abandon not your ranks to hasten
forward. Beware of too great enthusa-
ism, which is the only thing l fear. The
new arms dc precision are dangerous only
at distance. They will not prevent
the bayon.t from being what it has
hitherto bcen-the terrible weapon ofthc
