But with all his wealth Of Renaissance
Mr.. Stair could not definitely answer the
two questions that put to him at the
beginning OF our conversation. However,
he compromised the matter in a way by
declaring that one reason why the mature
like the circus is that there is an atmos-
phere OF simplicity and unostentatlon
about circusses and childlike-
ness about circus people. Few are
educated. The majority are contented
to go through life aud amuse other peO-
pie. They are generally generous to a
fault, and, although paid good salaries,
few seldom accumulate any money.

Our superb Hotel Fairhaven was
yesterday special benefit and bless
ing to the Focal City" and its guests.
Mr.. G. Il. Taylor, the host, was doubly
a host. Under his excellent manage
ment and yet handicapped by the fail
ure to materialize of extra help, en-
pioyed for the occasion, nearly a
thousand people were as carefully en-
tertained at the tables d'hote as if
there had been no special pressure,
and as usual the menue was a CASTRO
monte delight. Mr.. Taylor not only
did the honors as the dignitied
and capable manager, but made
himself an inspiring spirit to his
help as well as an admirable
host to his guests. With such
appointments and advantages as the
"Fairhaven" possesses, and with one
so capable, Jealous and anxious tC
please, as well as ambitious for the
reputation Of his establishment, as
Mr.. Taylor for manager, the city OF
Fairhaven will increase in reputation
for being a good place for the traveller
and sOjOurner.

Another anecdote relates to a we'll
known American statesmen, none Other
than Senator Blackburn. On this occa =
sion Barnum was in Washington, and
Blackburn was seized with an irresistible
desire to see the circus. The tent was
crowded to it's utmost capacity long be-
fore the hour named for the performance
TO begin. and when the senator aud his
party of friends came and he asked for
admission, they were politely but firmly
told that there was not room for another
soul inside. He was told that the people
had been turned away by the
thousands, and that as some OF them
so refused were yet waiting at the door,
it would be unjust TO let the
party 10. and besides it might cause
trouble to make any discrimination. But
Senator Blackburn was very persistent,
and would not give up the struggle. 81,
taking him one side. Mr.. Starr suggested
70 him that II he and his friends would
quietly sneak behind the tent, and would
crawl in under the canvas, he felt jus'i-
fed in saying that no one would put them
out. There were some ladies In the party,
and all in fine toilets, too; nevertheless,
so great was their anxiety to get in. that
all went to the rear and actually crawled
under the tent. And once in they were all
Indifferent to anything but the show
Senator Blackburn afterward remarked
TO Mr.. starr that IL was not the first time
that he had crawled into q circus in that
manner.

Once, said Mr.. Starr, the Prince Of
Wales came to Barnum's Circus with his
entire family. 1t was a sort OF official
visit. The prince of shOwmen met him at
the door and geaspiug Albert Edward 5
hand heartily bowed low and said that he
(the heir apparent had made one old man
very happy. This tally was passed in
that inimitable way so characteristic OF
Barnum. This informal greeting threw
the Prince of Wales nearly off his pins
and entirely OIL his dignity. He put his
hand Familiarity on Barnum's shoulder
and said: "Banum, you and ! are old
| friends" His royal highnesS and his
family came to stay only one hour, but
! they remained all through the perform
ance, and at it's close seed very loath TO go.
| And, adds MIR. Starr, the family when
once they became fairly warmed
up to TO the spirit of the occa-
sion, were the most demonStra,

and other British statesmen have forgot

RAILWAY BIRDS NEST.

Slow Travelling i'll England Gives the
Swallows Chance.
After all that has been said of the
achievements of the British railways in
the matter of speed there is a sense of
refreshment in this item which London
Engineering quotes from London
paper:
ssSome illustrations of modern rail-
way speed cited before the parlia-
mentary committee on the cross-coun-
try railway bill merit especial atten-
ton, showing what can be accomplished
when a railway company makes an Ell
fort. A Buxton coal merchant says
that sometimes the Midland company
manages to convey coal from Buxton
to Chesterfield in eleven to thirty-four
DAYS. and as the towns are more than
twenty miles apart it will be seen that
sometimes the coal trains dash along
the line at the rate of two miles day.
..Once the witness found a birds
nest in a truck which had been thirty
DAYS on the way, and he reasonably
believes that the nest was built and the
eggs laid during the month. Yet this
Buxton merchant is not happy and de-
sires change.

A GUINEA HENS FL UCk.

She Went for n Rat and Fought to Fin
ish Without Once luailing
A year ago City Sheriff Crofutt, of
Danbury, Conn, bought what he sup
posed to be Guinea cock for breeding
purposes. 1t turned out to be a hen. SO he
made pet of it and turned it in with
his large stock of Brai1mas. A day or
two ago, says the New York Sun, there
was such a conmotion in the chicken
yard that Mr.. Crofutt left the dinner
table to investigate the disturbance.
From his back stoop he saw a large rat
fastened to one OF his small Brahma
hens. The chicken was huttering
about, and it seemed to be all up
with it.
From the other end of the yard the
Guinea hen and rooster flew at the
rat with such ferocity that it released
It's hold on the Brah1na and went for
the Guinea hen. Then began a battle
between the little game hen and the
rat. The rat sprang and bit, and che
hen picked and scratched. Over on his
back went the rat with the Guinea pick
ing the fur from it's body. Finally the
rat got on it's feet and made a dash for
liberty, but the little hen was after it,
and it was forced to turn and fight
again. In a minute there were streaks
of blood on the gray coat, and the rat,
more dead than alive, at last made it's
escape in a hole under the coop. 1t
was a fight, said Sheriff Crofutt, worth
going miles to see.

In this town eggs have been rendered

cheap Mexican grain.
Recently, according to the Tombstone

Accordingly, he put up a long hen

At the American end he provided nests;
and at the other end he regularly fed
his hens with low-priced Mexican grain,
The fowls ate their grain in Mexico
and then walked across the line into

The transaction was perfectly honest,

A CRAB-CATcHlNG DOG.
An Animal That Delighted In Capturing
the Crustaceans.

- 4
have seen mention Of one dog that
caught suckers, and another with a
preference for catfish, says a writer in
Forest and Stream. do not for a
moment doubt either of these dog fish
ing stories, for once knew two dogs
that took great delight in catching
crabs, not soft crabs, but lusty hard
ones, capable of making a good fight.
When about twelve years Of age used
to spend my vacations at large farm
on a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay.
Besides myself there was another boy
and two dogs at this house. One of the
dogs was large Newfoundland and the
other was one of those medium-sized
puzzling combinations of short hair and
no particular color-probably an all
round dog, as concerned his breeding.
One day I noticed the large dog
wading about in the shallow water at
the foot of the yard and evidently
searching for something. found that
he was looking for crabs. When a
crab was discovered he would prance
around it, and, after making several at
tempts, seize it in his mouth and bring
it up on the beach and then play with
it, much as a cat does with mouse,
until the poor crab was either dead or
helplessly exhausted. He seemed to do
this for the mere sport of the thing,
barking all the time in tone that de-
noted excitement rather than anger.
He never ate the crabs after killing
them. The crabs fought back to the
best Of their ability, and it was often
difficult to say which had the highest
grip, dog or crab, for the crab would
fasten on to some portion of the dogs
mouth with both of his powerful pinch
ers and it would require much shaking
before he would drop off,
