MAKING POOLk's ISATIsTI OF 4,HAMLKT" A
BKBiOCK l'LAY ? MIAKLSPKABL's "UAMLkT"
rCKXY IN COM 1* A BISON.
A singularly serious performance or a travesty of
'?Hamlet" took place at tho I'nlou League Theatre last
night?a pcrlortuance so unique in itself and all its sur
roundings that it will be loug remembered by all who
"asskeled" In It. jhc audience was one of the most
Intelligent uua cultivated ever assembled in a place of
nmut-otnent iu Ibis city. The actors were all gentle
men ol education and refinement. The uatuo ol ouo of
the leodtug universitica of tbo country was associated
with tho occasion, and wi^li two exceptions the i>or
burners wcio all graduates of the uulver"
ally. Sweet churny, too, was tho excuse.
If not tbe motive lor tbe performance, and
the stage was Invoked lor the benefit ol
tbe church Tuo tickets ol admission read, "Vato
College Dramatic Association will givo a burlesque
representation ol'llamlel'lor tbe benefit of the dis
pensary of tbe Church of tbe lloly Trinity." It was
evideut that peoplo who uevcr went to the play wore
the patrous of this eveut. 'the littlo ihoutre was over
lull. The ladles and gentlemen In the stalls wcro ex
ceptionally well dressed and had paid an exceptionally
high price tor their plucos. There was an orchestra,
too, amateur, it is true, but exceptionally good ot its
klud. The scones abided like real scenes in u roul
theatre and peoplo dressed iu imitation of soinothlng
or somebody made tboir oxlts and tbeir entrances us if
tliey were really players in an actual playhouse, lint
hero evoiything similar to any thing over seen
beloro ceased entirely. Nothing more Incongru
ous can bo imagined. Shakespeare's "Hamlet"
Is generally considered a some what serious
production, aud oven Mr. Fechtor fails to tuiiko It alto
gether tanny, but lor downright lugubnousucss
Shukcspeere's production Is uol to be compared with
Poolo's. Who 1'oole is only u very bold and reckless
uiau would have tho courage to inquire, but l'ooie's
travesty might well be mistaken lor tbo original work
into which Shakespeare or Hacon or somebody en
dcavored to inluso a Utile sweetuos* and light. It was
Poole's travesty upon which the scholars ol Vale, In a
way so honorable to their uitna mater, expondod their
strength una their genius lust night. It is not to be
doubted tliut I'residont I'ortor and tho rest ol the
laculiy will heartily thuuk them for this evidence ol
(heir devotion to their university. It was a charity
pcrlormauce, and so it is uut ol tho reach of criticism,
a fact winch can scarcely tall to glvo pain to tbo
Icurucdpuuditsof vale who taught those young fellows
liow to be very serious lor tho amusement of tbo rest
of the world. Fortunately thu leporior wus nut ex
cluded Irom tho entertainment, aud ho can rolulo as
history what it is lorbiddeu to the critic to discuss.
Tbo play opened with the stale apartment in thu pal
ace 01 the King at Klsiuorc, and Polomus, Laertes and
tbo rest of llio courtiers entered us it thoy were
party ol one-logged seamen at the Sailors' Snug Har
bor illiug Iu to dinner. Thu Ivlug aud Quucu followed,
and ihuir motions dullcluusly illustrated those tri
angular bcuuites never tullv appreciated by uny ex
cept tlie students ol geometry. >o muny right angles
us thoy muuc with their arms and legs anil hips were
never ween beloro oil the blackboard. Then Uuuilet
came. There never was such u brucous fellow. Ho
raved aud lore his lialr. Ills eyes liiuy uevcr
again resume their uaiurui expression and his
mouth vus so completely twisted out of all
shape (hat if he looks tlilo the glass
tun- morning he won't know his own lace. Every
tiling wus done just as Edw in llootli wouldn't huvo
aouo it, uua it was not doue as nuybody else could
bate douo.it. Yet it was like llootli. lluuipty llumpiy
Fox used to toll aslory to tho client that wliou Uooili

sum so uncertain as to his owu identity that he was
fompollod to got somebody to truad on his sorest coru
to make out whether or not it was ho who una playing
II. If iioolh had seen the burlosquo lust night, which
he wus only pruvouied seeing by a previous engage
ment ot his own, be would bavu Icit like being
trampled upon ull over. And tho gentle Ophelia?she
was a churutiug creature. If sho did not muko u hole
In the "fiats" in her "Iront scenes" it was wus uol
Irom want ol elbow notion. 'But the ghost?be will bo
remembered forever aud a day. llo wus a jolly
Cood fellow, that was plain to bo soon, but he
ad not practised waikiug backward, aud was
t little too materialized tor the nurrowuess
sf the first entrance, liul even historians like Gibbon
ind Macaulay could not enter into the minutest par
ticulars ol the events they rotated, unit it is equally
impossible In the prcseut case. In cunsoqueucc u
must sutlleo to say that some of tho audience had u
mistaken idea ol the character of thu performance.
Some people Imagined that the evening was to bo one
ol jollity, and were surprised to see the play so seri
ous. The mistake was natural, perhups, but they bad
one beany laugh when tbe ghost annuuueed us an ex
cuse lor his baste in tils Interview with Hamlet, "Wo
keep good hours in belL " At tbe same tlmo a tremor
went over the honso aa If His Satanic Mitjesty's do
minions ought never to be spoken ol outside of the
pulpit, and llic question will doubtless be roiorrod to
the Faculty of Yale, so that It may bo satisfactorily
determined whether tbo Alumni ol tho university may
use tbo word in a serious play by l'oole outrageously
burlesqued by Shakespeare.

good intention, guvo the ball unother terrific rap,
when it rolled awlltly through the roda' goal in just
16 seconds, the Bostons being left entirely In the
cold. This brilliant piece ot play was loudly
cheered by the spectators. Coals were now changed,
and the ball ouco more tossed to tho centre ol tho
course. Morgan, of the California!!?, first reached the
sphere and gavo it a decided rap; bnt the Boatons
wore warming to their work, una, Fuller being well
backed by two or ibrce men, tbey occasioned the blues
soma truublo; but Curlllo worked the ball from the
mast of noracs' feet, and, brilliantly striking it in one
two order at full gallop, shot It again home, scorlug the
second goal for the Culllorumu*. Time, 30 seconds
Shortly ultor the Hum lltno the ball was tossed, the

which Cartllo's was wrested frotn his grasp, but bo re
gained it Instantly without dismounting. Faber, of
the Calltorulus, drove tho bull through tho Bostons'
goal in 2 m. 30s. Tho fifth goal was also
secured by tho bluos, Curillo sending lite
sphero home In u magnillcent rnanuer by outriding all
the others and rupping It six times In succession.
This pity was the best that had been scon and brought
loud applause Irniu all sections ol the building. The
sixth goal was won in gallant style by the Bostons.
Alter showing lino individual play they got tho bust

'Jin. 30a. This goal was blltorly contested, but
when really wanted Curillo was on hand and with

NABBOW ESCAPE FUOlf THE TERRORS Ot ST A fi
t's HON AND WINTER.
[From tho Stevons Point (Wis.) Journal, Dec. 10.]
On last Tuesday morning two Frenchmen, Peter
Ducro and Joseph Bui lor, both unaccustomed to the
woods, started from the Big Flambeau to look up n
homestead. Expecting to return in a lew hours, they
acquainted dodo with their Intended trip, aud a* they
did not return to their hoardiug place they were sup
posed to huve goue dowu the road to Phillips'. On
Friday alieruoou, howevor, a settler living near ob
served Deuro staggering toward iho house, and think
ing be was merely under the lulluence of liquor, bo
gun laughing ul his woe-begouo looks. Ducro entered
ibe house aud seated himself by tho stove, and hut
strange action* aud general helplesaness Induced tbe
lx ya lu ino house lo givo him a closer examination.
Ho was bristling all over with icicles, in souio places
over three inches long, and where his pantaloons en
ured his boot.- the Ite was Use or six inonss thick,
ino lirsl words he spoke were, "Hoys, I never ex
pected to see you again." They asked him why, slid
lie told Ihein that he had been lost In the woods
since Tuesday, and that tsutlor was stilt
there. They were greatly astonished, of course,
and at tbe same time greatly Concerned with regaru to
the valety ol ItulUr, and a party was nrsnniseo lo go
Into the country at once. Lanterns were procured,
and they hack-tracked Ducro ail that night aud the
holiday, and dually luuud where he had separated
lrom Butler. On Sunday they resumed tbn search.
?ad la the afiaraoon discovered Butler sitting on a log
Ho bad succeeded In taking off one ol hi* boots, and
was Irving to uk* off bis pauis. as bu said be couidu't
walk last enough with them on. Tbey brought Iniu
eat. and, with the exception of his tons' being slightly
Irezeu, and the banks ol bis bands, lie was lo all ap
pearances seemingly as well as ever physically, though
sadly demoralized in bia mind, liucro had hoth iMt
badly frozen, aud will go down lo-morrow lo bu doc
tored. Ho had on Sue calfskiu boots, hut no socks, and
hia sufferings most havu been terrible. Butler, on ihu
contrary, was well aud warmly clad, and was able to
stand it two days and one nlsht longer than liucro, and
then came out in butter condition.
They seem lo believe they met lots ol people, and
saw lota ol bouses and camps, aud that every one was
mean to tlieui. and would not let tbuiu coiuo in und
warm. Butler said, '-Why 1 stayed ull night at a
camp, and tbero were luriy-iive uicn and Ultcon
women. Tbe women all stood in tbo corners, and the
men wouldn't let me sleep or warm myself, and in tbo
morning I ollerod them $1 60 for a ploco of bread as
lurgo as my hand, and tbey said they noeded all their
bread, and wouldn't give me any." Liucro imagined
be was lu a city, and could see tbe men drinking and
playing billiards, and one man wus lying on a lied, and
liucro thought bu tried to get in the bed, and every
time be did so Hie man kicked hira out.
Tbo tacts lu tbe case uro these:?He wandered Into a
windlall, and tbe upturned routs be took for bouses,
aud there are marks <>( his lists where ho |>ouuded upon
their (as be supposed) doors. He walked buck and
lortb all nigbt beside a largo piue that bad fallen aud
wns upheld bv Its roots in such a way that it was about
on a level with bis head, and that was what he sup*
posed was ihu bed and man lu it, aa there are more
tbuu lllty prints ol his haDds in the snow on top of the
tree, made by btin In endeavoring to got into tbe bed
(as lio supposed).
Tbey cau both consider themselves extremely lucky,
as had not Ducro wandered out by cbauce both be and
Butler would have porisbed miserably, aug none been
the wiser. It should prove a lorriblo warning to peo
ple going into llio woods without compass, matches
and uxr, lor otbora may not be us lucky us even the un
lucky Freuehuiou.
