Slick. Dat will suit me! Skinner. What'll be our terms— pay in advance? Slick. Yes; dat's business! Skinner. Whar's de nails to hang up our customers' duds on -while we're fixin' 'em up in style? Slick. Oh, we'll git on widout nails ! Skinner. All right ! We'll jest find a soft slab on de floor to hang lip de apparel on. Slick. I belehe you're a plumb genius, Skinner! You beat all creation an' part ob New Jersey ! Skinner. Nothin' like bavin' lots ob experience; but, say — don't de women folks do a little votin' out here in Kansas? Slick. Yes; an' some ob de bossy sort would like to do lots ob it; rule, boss, knock down an' drag out all de game fellers. Skinner. I've been a notin' down dat fact since I arrived in de state. I've noticed some ob de women folks ob dis wild town would like to wear de breeches mighty bad — a bossy, meddlin', tattlin' set that must make marriage an all fired sad failure for de poor delicate husbands, who stay at homewid cle kids to sing dis touchin' lullaby: (sings or speaks) ''Home, home, blighted home; my wife's wearing "breeches has soured my sweet home." Slick. Day's as much truth as poetry in that, pard ! Skinner. Say, look over dar across de street! (pointing off l.) See dat big feminine gender over dar? Slick, (looking off l.) Yes; who is she? Skinner. She's a reg'lar she-ro, teeth an' toe nails, an' she'd give her woman's kingdom here on yarth to wear de panterloons ob mas- culine power in dis town. She tackled me at a hash shop 'cross cle street dis mornin'. She's a manish creetur, an' de whole town is tick ob her meddlin', 1 was told. Let's teach her a lesson, pard, an' learn her to keep her place. Slick. How'll we doit? Skinner. Seein' as she wants to wear de breeches so mighty bad, an' fill a man's shoes, let's give her a free shave for nothin' I Slick. Agreed ! But how'll we manage it? Skinner. Easy enough ! I'll go out an' tell her dar's a man here Wishes to discuss politics wid her. She's so all fired cranky, she'll SLICE AND SKINNEB. 5 come a windin' to talk on dat subject. We'll manage to get her into de chair somehow, an' while I slap on de lather, you give her a shave. Slick. All right! invite her in! Skinner exits l. — he is heard speaking outside— " Walk in, madam; a gentleman wishes to discuss politics with you." A shrill voice is heard in answer: "Discuss politics, you say f All right; I'll go. Where is he?" Skinner, (outside) This way, madam ! Enter, Skinner, j..— followed by a big coarse woman, dressed in burlesque fashion. Woman, {looking about her) Where's the man who wanted to talk politics with me? Slick. Here 1 am, madam ! What do you think ob de political issues ob de day ? Skinner. What's your ideas on prohibition, madam? Woman. Well, 1 think every fool ought to be prohibited. Slick. A level-headed remark, that, madam ! Woman. Who says a woman can't talk politics as well as a man? I claim they're keener-witted an' kin talk much freer. Skinner. No doubt — no doubt, madam ! The tongue has had a heap more experience. Woman. What do you mean by that remark, young man ! Skinner. Nothin' ! Nothin' at all, ma'am! Here, take this chair —be calm ! A person should keep perfectly cool in chattin' politics ! Slick and Skinner force her into the chair — the action must be very quick. Skinner throws an apron around her neck, and amid the woman's kicks and yells, he begins to lather her face with the white- wash brush in the pan if paste. Slick begins with his huge razor, to shave the woman, who pours out upon them a torrent of wrath with her tongue. They compel her to sit for a Jew minutes, while this ludicrous scene takes place — then she manages to upset chair and Slick — general business on the floor — Skinner makes a dive to recapture her, but she eludes him and goes sailing out at the door — Skinner arranges chair and all that has been disarranged in the struggle. Slick, (getting up) By jingo, pard, she's a tough one! She gave, me a tumble I'll remember. I wonder if she'll go an' get out a war- rant for our arrest? Skinner. iS'o danger ob dat, pard — de poilceman knows her too well to pay any attention to her gab? If she tells dem we tried to shave her, they'd jest laugh an' say it was tothcr way — she wanted a shave, but we wouldn't give it; savy, eh? Slick. All right! Just so the reputation of our shop is saved. Look out and see if we haven't another customer eomin'. Skinner, (looking up street, l.) Bet your granny's night-cap strings daris! It's a reg'lar sauerkraut dutch, too! .Now for some lim! 5 SLICK AND SKINNER. Enter, Hans, a big, fat Dutchman — carrying a large valise— he h munching a cookey — stares about him in a green, awkward fashion. Skinner. Ilello, Dutchy ! , Slick. How are you, Mr. Sauerkraut? The Dutchman preserves a stolid sort of silence — eating and staring about him. Skinner. Don't you speak English, Bisuiark? Hans. Yon leetle bit English speak. Skinner. Anything we can do for you to-day, Bismark? Hans. Vot you fellers do mit dis shop, hey? Skinner. We shave anything here, from a skinned mule to a man's purse. Slick. Have a shave? Hans. Veil, I don't care if I do taken some shave- dot is, if you have von leetle bit of shave dot cost me not so much as tri cent. Slick. All right! Jest set your valise down an' take dis chair. (►Skinner takes the valise and sets it aside Hans. But I don't vant some chair for mine valises. Slick. You don't understand ! Jest sit down in dischair; your valise is sate. Come, sit down ! Stir up de lather, parcl ! Hans. Oh, dot Vey, hey ? {sits) I thought you fellers vas trying to play a trick on me, because I vas a leetle bit not at home a'ready in America. Skinner has set the valise back of Hans, and is now stirring the lather. Skinner. We wouldn't be guilty of play in' a trick on yon, Bis- mark; but you'd better keep your eyes peeled for buffalo an' antelope out here on dese Kansas prairies, or dey may take you for a new species in de vegetation line jest sprung up, an' swaller you whole. Hans. Dot is a funny feller. He make me much vant to laugh mine sides off at his talk. What he speak ? Dot new language 'i Slick, '(pinning apron on Hans) Volapuk, you mean? Hans. Yah! Dot is him! I not onderstand him some much. Skninner. Keep your clam shell closed now, dutch}' ! Skinner puts on the lather vigorously with the brush — Hans makes wry faces and squirms uneasily. — Keep your eyes shut, too! Skinner puts on the lather, while Slick opens Hans' valise — finds a sack of cookies and begins to eat — then Skinner goes to valise — gets cake and eats. '. Slick. Y r ou must keep still! Don't get impatient ! We always give de lather time to work in. Hans. Yah! I keeps mine eyes shut tight up, an' rest me von leetle bit. Slick. Dat's right! We'll take our time, an' do a much better job for you. SLICK AND SKINNER. 7 Skinner eats atony, as he 'investigates the contents of 'Hans' valise— - .Slick sharpens his razor on the piece of suspender fastened to the back of the chair — then begins shaving slowly — stopping ever and anon to eat cookies. Skinner unfolds large red flannel drawers, and holds up to view of audience — he shows a notion to put them on, but concludes not to do .so fust then. There can be many strange articles in valise with which to do business for the enter- tainment of the audience. Last of all he unjolds a big white night-gown — this he quickly puts on, and exhibits himself freely , singing: "Oh, my long white robe, dat I bought last June; Pse gwine to git changed, 'ca'se it jits too soon." SlicJc. Here, paid, slap on some more lather— quick ! Skinner grabs the brush and lathers Hans vigorously, making the night-gown sail out behind him — as he finishes lathering, he gives Hans a quick poke in the stomach, with the long handle of the brush. Mans. Och, mine Got inHimmel! Vot is der matter mit mine bump? I have von speil of der morbus cholery, I think! Slick. Never mind ! Now keep your eyes shut an' you'll be done up in style in a jiffy ! . Skinner slips around, closes the valise and hides it under the table. Hans, (groan?) Och, mine bump dot is so much tender! i (rubs the injured part Slick. Keep your eyes shut! (strikes a match) Now hold still ! Approaches Hans — applies lighted match to his nose — Hans jumps as if he we re shot — rushes out, one hand to his bump and one to his nose, never pausing for hat or valise. Skinner Dat was a pretty slick job! Slick. Yes; but lie made oft" wid one ob my best aprons! Skinner. Wei!, we've got his valise an' whole kit — dat will be a Soothin' plaster tor all losses. Slick. I wonder who'll be our next? Skinner. I see a darkey crossing de street. I reckon he's comin' here. Yes, he's turnin' in! Now let's enforce our rules ! Let's make him pay in advance! Slick. All right! Y T ou manage that! Skinner. I'm just de buzz saw an' curry comb combination as can do it, pard ! Slick. Sail in on him den; I've de sand to back you! Enter, Sambo, l., with a long, black nose made of pasteboard and at- tached to a woolly wig. Skinner. Hello, sir ! Sambo. Sambo, sah ! Skinner. Some work done dis mornin', Sambo? Sambo. Yes, Loss; I want a shave an' a hair-cut. Skinner. All right! We'll fix you over like a long tongued mil- liner does an old bonnet, an' make a bran new darkey ob you! ~8 SLICK AND SKINNER. Sambo. Golly! It clone beats cle world what some folks can 'complish ! j Skinner. Say, Sambo, would you like to be a white man? i Sambo. Golly, yes! I'd give lebcnteen barrels ob sorghum to be a white man ; but you can't change a darkey. Skinner. Oh, yes we can, Sambo! We've jest discovered a new process by which a darkey can become as white as anybody. Sambo, (to Slick) Ciimeny! Is dat so, mistah ? Slick. Yes, you can belebe all he tells you. He's a wonderful man ; he used to distribute Bible tracts among the Indians. Sambo, (eying Skinner) Jeeminy ! I wouldn't think, boss, you'd settle down into a barber shop after all such great experience. Skinner. Well. Sambo, I wish to do all de good I can to poor, sufierin' mankiiftf. While among de Injuns I found an herb which, if used by an experienced hand, can makj a nigger as white as a ghost. £ have it chemicalized an' all ready right here. If you want to be made white, jest pay down eighteen dollars, an' we'll send you home so your friends won't know you ! It's a wonderful thing! Sambo. Eighteen dollars ! Golly ! I hain't half dat much money ! Skinner. How much have you ? Sambo, (counting money) I jest got two dollars an' lebenteen cents, 'zactly ! Skinner. Well, Sambo, I'll tell you what we'll do ! Give me dat money, an' after you're made into a white man, you can pay de rest in sorghum ! How'll dat suit you? Sambo, (hesitating!.}/) De ole woman sorter wanted a new ban- danna an' a fine tooth comb; but I reckon if your chemicals will make me a white man, I can 'ford it. (gives Skinner money Skinner. Here, take this chair ! Sambo sits — Slick puts apron on Sambo, while Sk-inner puts on lather. Skinner. Any danger of injnrin' your complexion wid soap? Sambo. Yes, sah ! right smart, sah ! De ole woman never lets me use any ob her soap. Slick begins to shave — Skinner flourishes his huge, wooden scissors. Skinner. Close cut, Sambo? Sambo. Yes. boss ! Skinner. Pompadour? Sambo. Pompy which? Skinner. All right! I understand what style will suit your tastes. Slick, (aside to Skinner) I wish he'd find it convenient to put dat confounded nose ob his in his pocket until I git him shaved ! Skinner, (aside to Slick) Is it in your way, pard? Slick, (aside to Skinkkr) Greatly so! Skinner, (aside to Slick) I'll fix R for you ' Sambo. Say, boss, am I gittin' any whiter? SLICK AND SKIN NEB. 5 Skinner. Oh, yes! De chemicals are workin' like a charm. You'll soon be as white as Mary's little lamb. Jest hold still ! De success ob tie metamorphosis depends on de exercise ob great nerve force. Skinner takes the powerful nose of Sambo between his scissors, and, amid the agonizing screams of Sambo saws away at his nose — at last nose and wig yield to the barber, who holds them up triumph- antly on his scissors before the audience — Sambo should act as ij the operation was very painful. As Skinner holds wig and nose up, Sambo springs from Slick's grasp — catches Skinner, who is still in the night-gown, and scats him right in the pan of paste — then he rushes at Slick, sending him sprawling, and escapes. Skinner rises slowly from pan — the paste dripping from the night- gown — he surveys it critically — nods his head— shakes the wi{> and nose aloft un his scissors.

YES t WE THINK IT WILL PLEASE YOU, THIS NEW DRAMA ENTITLED Brae: the Pnnr House GdrlT It will please your audience at least if it is presented well. The character of BRAC» is very much like "FANCHON THE CRICKET,"— is replete with RICH AND SPARKLING DIALOGUE, FUNNY AND TELLING SITUATIONS, DARE-DEVIL EXPLOITS, ETC., and worthy the best talents of the best ladies. The beauty of the play is, that it is entirely original, the acts and scenes not being found in a dozen other plays, but only this one. The leading man, Hob Wilder, is a gentl«nan of leisure, who be comes smitten with Brae, and in order to play the part, should be able to sing and perhaps dance too— although it is not positively necessary. Th«.'re is a very funny old maid's part, which if played well will certainly "bring down the house." All the other characters 3 males, 2 females, are telling ones. To please the average audience of to-day, a play must bo selected with a nice construction of sentiment and mirth. This play fills the requirements w 'e believe.
