a Japanese Tragedy.

One afternoon in Kyoto, having
nothing particular to do. visited an
onnashibai, a theatcr where all the per-
formers are women. There was
nothing particular in the performance,
but the closing scene was rather anus
ing to foreign eyes. pair OF guilty
lovers had been sentenced to death.
The eXccutioncr. apparently coolie,
sat down and calmly sharpcncd an
enormous chopper, while the unhappy
victims writhcd on the ground Finally,
when the chopper was keen enough,
up jumped the avcngcr and, after
much postnrng to represent triumph,
gave the man" a fatal blow Immcdi-
atcly from the back of the stage there
rushed out Il boy with black cap on
his head, the said black cap in;matng
that he had nothing to do with the
action OF the piece. This super" held
n cloth in front Of the corpse, which
scrambled off the stage, at the same
time passing grsly wooden head to
the cXccutioncr, who brandishcd it
triumphantly The same scene was
gone through with the lady: and, in
spite of the tragic nature of the scene,
to say nothing Of its sound morality, |
must own to have laughed consumcdly.
