PUNCH, OR THE LONDON CHARIVARI.

ON THE BLACK LIST.

Kaiser (as Executioner). "I'M GOING TO HANG YOU."

Punch. "OH, YOU ARE, ARE YOU? WELL, YOU DON'T SEEM TO KNOW HOW THE SCENE ENDS. IT'S THE HANGMAN THAT GETS HANGED."

The Deutsche Tageszeitung, remarking on "the black and distorted souls of decadent peoples," issues a warning to Punch and others. "Their performances," it says, "are diligently noted, so that when the day of reckoning arrives we shall know with whom we have to deal and how to deal with them most effectually."
