The Oldest olrou. Rider in the World.

The Oldest Circus Rider in the World.
Mr.. William Brown, of Chicago, has a his
tory OF more than ordinary Importance, as
he is, The Stage thinks, probably the oldest
: circus rider in the world today. He is now
in his ninetieth year, and at the age of Az
years he began life as a rider. At that time
he WINS living in his motherland, old England,
and was attached to Hengler's circus. He
continued with Hengler until he was IS years
of age, when his famous craftsmanship at
tracted the attention of King George III, and
he became an attache of the royal stables.
The second year of his Engagement by the
king he was made first jockey. While In this
position he piloted many noted horses to vic
tory, and many times received the approba-
ton of his highness and also substantial re-
minders of his value as a jockey.
After the death of George III Mr.. Brown
again returned to the circus business, and
with the money he had accumulated during
his engagement with the king he started a
show Of his own. He returned to his first
love of bareback riding, and while perform
ing In Germany fell from his horse and frac-
tured both of his legs. This did not discour-
age him, and he acted as a clown Until such
time as he was able to resume his riding.
He came to this country In the sos and
was with Rentz's circus in 1871, when he re-
tired from the business and settled down in
Chicago.

theatrical profession. Mr.. Lee has always
held a dignified and rather naughty opinion
of his profession 1t is a pity that is not a
greater and commoner feult with the actors
But he went to see the Lauri and Bell COM
pany play at the Bush Street theatre. The
house was small. The play was supposed to
be funny, but Mr.. Lee sat in a box and took
it in without any unbending geniality. He
had not laughed once in the act, and finally
one of the company, being down front close
to the box, said In an aside to him,
Smile just once-just once You can
