Wood to metal pool cue joint - gives you average cue ball control, average shot. Wood to wood joint - gives you the greatest cue ball control, softer shot - this is as close to the one piece cue as you can get with two piece stick. Metal to metal pool cue joint - gives you little cue ball control, maximum force of shot. The Executioner, noting the preference his ward has for the young stranger, consents to their marriage on condition that he gives himself to be executed at the end of the month. Might be good with a mirror-plastic spinner at the back end. Much additional fun might have been derived from such intermixture, which Mr. Gilbert would have been quite capable of accomplishing if so minded. A writer and a composer generally know best what they can do best, both conjointly and separately; and it may be safely assumed that, if Mr. Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan thought their united strength to lie in serious or even serio-comic work, they would have undertaken such work long before a certain feeling of monotony and tedium had begun to attach to their concetti and verbal quibbles and pretty tunes.
After the production of Princess Ida rumour would have it that the joint authors, Mr. Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan were alive to the necessity of turning over, as it were, a new leaf, and that their next venture would be of a different type: less farcical, more psychologically subtle, more serious in fact, albeit still humorous. There were, perhaps, not 30 persons among the audience who had so much as heard about a pentatonic scale or a koto; while the familiar tunes, given in abundance, every one can remember, and whistle, and play, too, billiard cue thread types when the pianoforte score appears in due course. The ear is not bored with choruses or songs constructed out of the Japanese scale which could only be sung in the Japanese manner, accompanied by that pleasant combination of mewing, squalling in falsetto voice, and thumping on a flabby drum, which the popular mind has learned to accept as the perfection of expression both Japanese and its ally Chinese music.
Sir Arthur Sullivan ignores the pentatonic scale and the minor keys (without a leading note) affected by the musicians of Japan; neither does he treat us to a solo on the 13-stringed dulcimer, called Sé by the Chinese and Koto by the Japanese. A group of mathematicians has unveiled a brand new 13-sided shape they've simply called 'the hat'. At the marriage feast which is accordingly prepared a new complication arises in the shape of Katisha (Miss Rosina Brandram), a very formidable virago, and the daughter-in-law elect of the Mikado. Mr. Grossmith and Mr. Barrington walk and sit as if petticoats had been their ordinary garb from infancy; and Miss Braham, Miss Jessie Bond, and Miss Sybil Grey flirt their fan, and walk with their feet turned in and look so charming withal, that their equals would with difficulty be found on fans or screens or in real life. The person thus raised to the exalted dignity of Lord High Executioner is Ko-Ko, the cheap tailor (Mr. Grossmith), and, to crown his happiness, he is about to be married to his lovely ward, Yum-Yum by name (Miss Braham). Ko-Ko, who believes that his imperial master is intent upon witnessing the long-delayed execution, forges an affidavit to the effect that Nanki-Poo has been beheaded that morning, being aided and abetted in his falsehood by Pooh-Bah, a great nobleman, who, in spite of his ancestors, has consented to serve under the ci-devant chief tailor in the manifold capacities of First Lord of the Treasury, Lord Chief Justice, Commander-in-Chief, Archbishop of Titipu, and Lord Mayor, and further castigates his family pride by accepting miscellaneous bribes from any one inclined to pay.
Of the performance we can very concisely speak, because it was as near perfection as a first performance can be. You can attach them to anything light, they will still work if badly made. I think it's probably possible to modify it to work with more than two pens. It is very forgiving & will work no matter how badly made. This the lady explains, or rather tries to explain, for the excited guests will not admit her to audible speech. The exact length will have to be based on a trial. This prospective bliss is disturbed, however, by a letter from the Mikado, who, struck by the fact that no executions have taken place at Titipu for a year, decrees that, unless somebody is beheaded within the space of one month, the office of Lord High Executioner shall be abolished and the city reduced to the rank of a village. This agreement is changed and the lovers are to go out of town while the Executioner and his subordinate - the Lord High Everything Else - make a solemn statement to the effect that execution has been done upon the person of the disguised prince, whose dignity is as yet unrevealed to them.
