intimate dramas are in full blast
Shakespeare and the Black Crook make
full team. Indian summer has ar
rived for the benefit of romantic youths

and Montagues are the Johnson men
and Cheatham men who are biting their
thumbs at each other daily; the State
can say, like poor Meicutio: "A plague
on both your houses, am sped" A
combination Black Crook leg islative
ticket is talked OF between the Johnson

why not French, italian and Irish? each

be that spoken in Paradise by Colonel
Adam, Mile Eve and Major Luciier.
