patched up simply with a view Of displaying
some millinery shops upon the person of

COLONEL TAYLOR'S IAGO.
HOW HE FLoUNBERED THROUGH 1T AT VIRGINIA
CITY.

Col. Bob Taylor is in town to-day, having
come down last evening to play part in Fro,
Faou. The last time the writer saw the
Colonel play was in Virginia City. 1t was
the occasion of Charley Pope's benefit. Taylor
! played 'Iago' aud Pope "Othello" The
Colonel took the part at weeks notice
and as it is about the longest role in Shaks-
| peare, he had to do some tall studying before
| he stored it away in his head. The house, in
| theatrical vernacular was "corker," that is,
| every seat was taken. The writer was behind
the scenes, and few minutes before the cur
tain went up he saw Taylor approach Pope
and remark
"Charey, do you think you know your
part p
''Do l." said Pope, little rufied, "Tve
played it hundred and odd times"
" Well, that may be, but if you don't know
mine We re in a devil of fix, for I'm blamed
if do
Pope looked aghast, but the call bell rang
and presently the curtain rose. When Taylor
me on there was a big round of applause,
but he took no notice of it whatever Soon
it became evident that Taylor was Little
off in his lines, and with su blime sang .t1oid
he would quietly walk up to the prompt side
and take his cue. He accepted the situation
with snch colossal indifference that the audi
ence began to enjoy the fun amazingly.
Presently Pope came to word where there
was a necessary pause, when Taylor slid up
AID putting his hand along side his month
whispered the line in his ear and retreated.
The expression which came over the face of
the dusky Moor was something absolutely
mur derous. Again and again Taylor would
take advantage of these pauses to make the
audience think Pope did not know his lines,
and occasionally he w"ul contemplate the
star with pitiful expression, until the audi |
snce was screaming with laughter. Behind |
he scenes Pope cursed and raved like a |
drunken pirate, but the Colonel was as calm |
md unruffied AS fence post When the play |
vas over Pope remarked
Colonel, why i'll - -- -- did you
yet that way e.
Well, You see, Pope, your reputation will
led expression, he added: ga man has no
light to scour that way with full house"
Pope laughed, and half an hour later the
wo men were discussing pot of Fredricks
urg beer and some swizercase at the corner
lloon together.

COLONEL FULpON'S FUNERAL

| Colonel Samuel Ii. Fulton was buried al
| byterian Church, Rev B. L. McL.in otficiat-
! Ing. The church was filled with the friends
| of the deceased. A delegation of SIX men
from the order of Mexican Veterans acted a.
pail bearers, the deceased having served Ii
the Mexican war, where he honestly won his
title of Colonel The rem ,ins lay in a neat
C .sket which was draped with a large Ameri-
can flag. There were no flowers upon the
coffin from the fact that it was impossible to
obtain any in the city in spite of every effort
made on the part of many friends Of the dead
to secure them. \ choir Of ladies, who had
kindly volunteered sang Dr. Mulenbery's
hymn, d" | would not live Always with organ
accompaniment The kindly features of the
dead were exposed to view. There was IA
perfectly natural expression, as if ne had
passed away from earth peacefully and pain
lessly The remains were taken to the Gene
terry followed by the III xicsn Veterans in re-
gala and line of carriages containing the
near relatives and personal friends of the
deceased. Those who knew him best could
hardly realize that the man was dead who,
but few days ago, had cheered them with
his flow of good humor and ever cheerful
presence. The following Veterans acted as
pail bearers: Aaron D. Treadway, R. W. |
Bollen, c. G. Billings, James Hunt, John |
