 But hn'lly q young felow that Cayzar

 There's tn story as Hogan tells fl firm readin' 1t in books an seein' 1t acted at tn 'Cademy iv Music!

Ye are not subjict to Interruptions be people that were there. I wud not undertake to write a histhry iv Peofya in nineteen hundred an eight, but if ye want tn latest news from Rome two thousand years ago. hand me tlsat fountain pen. Far firm bein' g gr-reat man, Joolyuss Cayzar was a pretty ordhinry charack- ter. He was always out IT tn money. All sv his alleged wars were. carrid on to help tn grocery business iv Rome that he was Q secret pardner in. He was q mean. clos-tisted man. He done Cicero out of his house be threatenin' to build tliv'ry stable next dure to 1t an thin Buying in 1t cheap an his throuble with Pompey come firm sellin' his old chum a horse that he swOre amy child cud dhrive an that run away with Mrs. Pompey in Centhral Park an smashed Pompey's best two seated chariot. He was killed in a barroom be Brutus, a worthless fellow that he'd adopted to get hold iv his money. Tin real hero iv tn peeryod was Marcus Mephitus Jenks. It wss Rome is due to. It was Jenks who won tn battles, Jenks that reformed tn almanac an Jenks that modelled tn laws. But Jenks was c modest hero. He had no press agent. Sthrange | to say, can find no contimpry rifer- l ences to Jenks but a few vulgar joke8 But he was great man. He time, an now that tn clouds iv ealumy | fas rolled away 1t gives me great | pleasure to say that Jenlxs. not Cayzar. was tn boy. In me estimation, th'4 next gr-reatest man iv thim days was Nero. A coorsO prejudice has grown.l up against Nero. No wan names | childher afther him amy more. which | I think Is a gr-reat mistake. Ear firm bein' tn monsther he is supposed | to be, Nero was a quiet, cultivated | young fellow, who, like nanny an- other with th' same tastes has had his | mim'ry condimmed to loathin' an hor- | POT because he played tn violin.
