theater, with scenery and curtain. In a bed a
colored gentleman is seen. Satan appears at the
head of the bed, and the colored fellow
jumps up:in alright. A big policeman, who looks
like the vigilant officer, John Cook, comes in,
and the frightened fellow hides his head under

appear, and there is fun. This SPLENDID TOW
