Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Truth About the South African Question: Washington, D. C., April 25, 1900 Mr. Webster Davis, of Kansas City, late Assistant Secretary of the Interior, has just returned from a visit to the scene of hostilities in South Africa, and has taken to the lecture platform to tell the American people what their duties are in the British-Boer war. He thunders considerably in the index, but whether the execution of his self-appointed task shall keep pace with the vigor of his pronunciamento, which has not always been the case in adventures of this kind, remains to be seen. In the laughable comedy of This by and Pyramus it was thought necessary to give assurance to timid ladies in the audience that there was no live lion on the stage with veritable teeth and claws, the prologue telling them plainly that what appeared to be a lion was not a lion, but only "Snug, the joiner," a "man as other men are." The most superficial observer in pit or proscenium in Mr. Davis´ Opera House gatherings will not be deceived concerning the true nature of the exhibition without a prologue to announce it!
