mouldy chops % you play the saucy cutie with
me-
Pistol-aod let me not live, but win murder your
run for this.
That imbecile youth in short cut coat,
short cut pants, and boots, for an ordinary
giant, is page. He looks as if he might
be happy under any other circumstances in
the world.
"By this light am we'll spoken of: can hear it
With mine own ears; the worst that they can say OF
me is that I am second brother, q d that an
proper fellow Of my hands; and those two things
confess cannot help.
There is no installing Poins after that.
In this "huge hill of flesh" we know Sir
John Fallstatf.
"a plague Of all towards, say, and a venf e.nce
too marry, and amen Give me . cup Of sack boy.
Ere lead this lite long I'll sew neither stocks and
mend them and foot them too. A plague OF all COW
ards, give cup Of sack rogue. 1s there no virtue
extant?"
And now in a solemn group come Moul
dey, Wart, Feeble, Bull Calf and Shadow,
and as they 60 by we have done with the
Court and the times of King Henry ~.
From History these sculptured pictures
passing before us lead us to Tragedy, and
show us the men of the days of
Julius Caesar.
-"T The noble Brutus
Hath told you Cesar was ambitious;
If it were so it was grievous fault
And grievously hath Cesar answered 1t,
Here under leave Of Brutus and the rest,
For Brutus is an honorable man..
Marcus Antonius is here, and Calpurnia,
Caesars wife, and two Of the old battle
SCARED Roman soldiers. These two are
Brutus and Cassius.
Cassius-Have not you love enough TO bear with me.
When that rash humor which my mother gave me
makes me forgetful?
Brutus-Yes, Cassius; aud from henceforth,
When you earnest with your Brutus.
He'll think your mother chdes, and leave you 80.
Here are the Senators, Cicero, Poplius
Lene and Publius, who were won't to make
the Forum ring with their eloquence: and
in that quiet looking man We know CHINA,
the poet.
Now come Tribonius and Casca, the Con-
spirators, deep in their plots against Julius
Caesar and Rome.
With crowd Of Guards, Rome and its
people move off, and with it Tragedy.
And on comes
C0mcd.'.
The characters in Measure for Measure"
are what appear. There is Vlncentia, the
Duke of Vienna, Isabella, Escalus, the
ancient Lord, Angelic, Claudio, Lucio, ga
fantastic" according to the book, whatever
that may be, Froth, Elbow, and all the
rest and as they move off the pageant dies
out
AT THE VARIETIES
were assembled the favored among the Dis
ciples, and were assembled in numbers.
There was the same old fear that has pos
sessed every audience, in spite Of themselves,
that something was wrong and the curtain
would never rise, ant Just as these fears had
almost reached certainty, the orchestra
suddenly awoke to life and the curtain went
up on Tableau l.
The Growing OF Shakespeare.
He was a n, take him for all in all,
w ne'er shall! see hi like again.
Thespis was on a raised pedestal, and just
in front stood Shakespeare. over whose head
Thespis held the laurel wreath, and grouped
around was Tragedy, Comedy, Painting and
History. The curtain fell upon this
tableau, and again rose in response to the
enthusiastic applause with which it was
greeted. In due time the curtain rose on
Tableau :.
Falstaf Mt Justice Shadows.
Come manage me you Calver.
So. very well; 60 to; very good, exceeding good
Oh. give me always tie lean. old, chap bald shot
Well sad i faith. Wart how'rt good scab
Hold, there's tester for thee"
And then came Tableau 3.
Cesar and His Train.
Bru.-The games are done and Caesar is returning.
Cassus-As they pass by, pluck Casca by the sleeve;
And he will after his sour fashion, tell you,
What hath proceeded, worth note to-day.
The curtain then rose and revealed Tab
lean 4.
The Duke Reveal ng Himself.
Du1e-Thou art the first knave that e'er mad'st a
duke.
First, provost, let me bail these gentle three
Sneak not away. sir; for the friar and you
Must have word an on-lay hold on him.
After an intermisson of some space the
curtain again went up on Tableau 5.
Shakespeare Presenting his Creations to
ThesPfs.
AN the worlds stage,
And all the men and women merel players;
They have their exit, and their entrance
And one man in his time plays many parts"
The Decorations
and Examinations on the streets through
which the procession passed were very fine.
The st. Charles Hotel and the City Hall
were brilliantly lighted, but specially
worthy Of mention was the Pickwick Club.
The display was both neat and CANDY, and
reflects great credit on the designer. John
