# Judge Magazine Page Analysis This page from Judge (likely 1880s-90s) contains multiple satirical pieces about contemporary American politics and society: **"As His Grace Came In"** mocks aristocratic social anxiety, with a mother warning her daughter to "atone" for an ancestor's surrender at Yorktown—suggesting nervousness about entertaining British nobility. **"The Next Cabinet"** satirizes potential cabinet appointments under a future administration. It references John Sherman, James Blaine, and others as silent or evasive about their roles, while mocking T.C. Platt's focus on express business and poking fun at Chauncey Depew's ambition for promotion. **"He Died Game"** discusses Prado, a French assassin recently executed, praising his composure—likely dark commentary on celebrity and notoriety in crime. **"Fun in Leggings and Furs"** celebrates winter sports becoming mainstream American recreation, though with nostalgic regret. The page primarily targets politicians' evasiveness and self-interested career moves during a period of cabinet speculation.
