Hamlet from a Granger Standpoint.

Hamlet from Granger Standpoint.
Two wangcrs from Green County, who
were in here with some hogs, and WHO
were stopping at the Stock Yards Hotel,
came up town Wednesday night to sec
"iIamIct' at the OpcrN-housc. They
sat ON front seat ard the audience no
ticcd all through the play that they were
not pleased, and when they got into mn
Elizabeth street car after the perform
nucc, those in the car got Il pretty good
idea Of what the trouble was.
"WcIl, Ii9c, how did it strike your
said the sandy whisWrcd one, as he bit
of a piece Of navy plug and handed the
plug back to his friend.
80, it didn't strike me. All | want is
10 live 10 get back TO the tavern and find
THAT rcd-hcadcd Norwegian hotel keeper
that told me Hamlet was a bwlcsQuc
opera, with can.cm girls. Call that u
place Of amusement? ! suppDs" place
OF amusement is where Il man goes to
laugh. don't want nobody to charge
me dollar TO see II funeral procession,
and listen to II fellow dig IL grave and
sing obscene songs. tell you, Ezra, it
don't took right to see skulls thrown
around on the stage, And rs for dlGgm
graves, there is q man in Monroe that can
dig two graves TO that fellows one.
90, yes, bat Iigc people in cities like
to see funerals played in the thoatcrs.
They never attend funerals unless they
are the corpse, or some of their relatives
die. In the country we all turn ont to u
funeral, and it is no novelty to us You
must think Of the acting says EHra
"WcIl, when | come in here with any
more hogs, and ! want to enjoy myself, !
shall go ont TO the cemetery, or TO the
insane asylum. 1t just made me sick to
see that poor crazy girl, Ofccly, taking
on about her father that GimIct killed
with 4 scythc, and When them boys up in
the loft begun to cheer her felt like
going and kicking them all down stairs,
and then saying my prayers. Any man
that will make fun Of II crazy girl amt
fit to live I tell you | felt so bad for
that girl | was cuascd glad when the
hired girl come in and said she was
