THE BAT

MAY 24, 1887

It is evident that Her Majesty's advisers do not mean this year to let her do things by halves. If it is her gracios pleasure to command a private performance of the latest edition of Sangers' Circus, they see no harm in her going a step firther and offering the hospitalities of Buckingham Palace, and the cachet a presentation is supposed to confer, to a class who cannot be considered much of a remove beyond Buffalo Bill, Red Shirt, Buck Taylor, or their respective squaws. Indeed, Miss Annie Oakley, "Little Sure Shot," has certainly ground for complaint that she was not presented by Mrs. Phleps last Wednesday, and many will want to know why some slight recognition, in th eway of an invitation to the Royal Palace, has not yet been tendered to Mr. "Pony" Moore, as a reward for his years of catering for the public amusement. There cannot be any difficulty in the way of these estimable entertainers being reveived by Her Majesty, after the publication of the recent list of persons who were so honoured last week.
