An Amusing Episode.

There was series of rows on Middle and
Vine streets last night just before midnight.
The circus opened when two men walked in
to 10 Middle street and declined topay bill
of SO cents. The woman in charge stood by
her rights. closed the door, sent man for
the patrolmen, and then faced the two, and
said: HYou can't go until l get my SO
cents" 1t Wars useless for the men to insist
that they We're readyvto pay if she would go
behind the counter, which she refused to
do saying: j. You pay here" At last Patrol
man Riley and Pillsbury walked in, and
arrested the two men. The question of
whether the woman would appear against
the men was raised. and the trouble was
ended by the settling of the bill.
Thel. there was row in sailor boarding
house on Vine street that for the time called
for the attention of the officers on that
beat. AS near as could be learned, about a
dozen men took part in the row in the dark,
but it was impossible for Patrolmen Riley
and Pillsbury to fix the blame on any one,
for to induce one to appear against another
AS far as could be ascertained the trouble
started over question of the ownership of
the right of bed. A big Engllshman
claimed it, and he had the traditional nine
points of law, possession, in his favor, and
declined to give up the room, or any part
of it to the big Dutchman who claimed it.
A fight followed and the Englishman was
badly cut on the hand and one eye was
blackene Patrolmen Riley and Plllsbury
tried hard to locate the blame, but failed,
but did succeed in restoring peace.

REMEMBERED THEIR coMRADE.
A Touching Incident Illustrative OF
Circus Life.

The Busy Performers Though Tired With
Their Work Took Time to visit The
Grave of a Comrade at Calvary.
There was one circus act yesterday az
ternoon that none of the thousands
who paid to see the show saw, nor was
it on the programme, and no one but
mem bers ofsthe little world that travels
under the Adam Forspaugh banner
knew anything about it. The occasion
was the decoration of Jimmie Donahue's
grave at Calvary Cemetery, by as many
of his old friends and co-workers for the
past Is years that he had been valued
and highly esteemed member of the
Forepaugh staff, as could get away from
their duties. AS soon as the afternoon
performance was over, about so mem bers
direction of Senior Louis Sachetto, start
ed for the cemetery with a carriage load
of flowers.
1t was a strange sight to see those 50
men form in line, and walking two by
two, and bare-headed with the band
pay th5 q oAoW IuuOl al OllSCs pdoS oLOuhss
the little chapel on the hill, and go
down beneath the frightening shadows
to Jimmie's" last resting place. There
were tent peggers,. ticket sellers, perfor-
mers and representatives of all the in
Vulnerable branches of circus life and
work, and the scene in the almost de-
serted burial ground was strangely sol
emn and pathetic.
The sun was just dipping below the
western horizon as Mr.. Whitney Allen,
the press representative of the show, be-
gan a few feeling remarks that voiced
the sediments of all present. In conclud-
ing, Mr.. Allen was particularly happy in
the choice OF his SMILES. He said ::
Gone, but not forgottenl These words
traced in flowers. AT the head of Jimmie's
grave tell the story of this little cere-
mony better than any words of mine
can. Sometimes I think. when people
ask us how we eat, sleep and live, that
they liken us unto Arabs Jimmie was
an Arab in more senses than one. At
the baptism of an Arab child, the Mo
hammedan priest utters these words to
the child AS you enter this world
weeping, while all around you smile,
may you so live that you may leave this
world smiling while all around you
weep So Jimmie lived. You all re-
member the words of the telegram he
semitic winter quarters in Philadelphia
the day before he died: I can't go out
with you this season. I must report at
headquarters We are all regarded as
Arabs, think; but in our lives there
are lives as loyal, loves as true, and
hearts as tender as among any Eclass of
people..in the world. If Jimmie can see us
here, from the spirit world, am sure he
will appreciate fully this little tribute
to his memory"
Circus people often do little things
like this, but generally try and h ave
them occur on Sunday. Had it been
this way here, the entire show, men and
women, would have attended in body.

DR.. oRoNHYATEKHA
Full Blooded mohawk Chieftain Who
has Attained Eminence-He Visits Maine
In the Interest of a Secret Order.


LII. Oronhyatekha, one of the most in
lerestlng men in America, is just now in
portland, at the Falmouth. He is full
olooueo Iroquois Indian, of that famous
Mohawk tribe that two hundred years ago
sent lis agents into Maine to levy tribute of
the covering Algonquins, much as Roman
proconsul might in an Asiatic province.
Dr. Oronhryatekha is himself Mohawk
chleI, and his wife is granddaughter of
the famous chieftain, Joseph Brant, whose
name mas become memorable in connection
with the massacre in the Wyoming valley
during the Revolution. But Dr.. Oronhya-
teKha says Brant was in reality not
present. The Six Nations sided with the
British, and after the latter were defeated,
moved to Canada where they have two
reservations one on the banks of the Bay
OF Qu1enti. on Lake Ontario, and theeother
on Grand river near Branford. The
lroquois are now peaceful farmers: but they
maintain their old tribunal usages to a
large extent, and the council fire still burns
IN the Long House, as it did two hundred
years ago.
Dr. Oronhyathekha was educated in the
schools of his tribe, at Welbraham, Mass,
at Kenyon college, Ohio, Toronto Universe
ty and the University of Oxford, in Eng
land. He was for many years practieing
physician in Toronto but recently has re-
tired to devote himself to his studies as

Last Sunday there was rather re-
markable gathering of bicyclers at Bath
in response to the invitation of Bath
wheelmen to come to that city and take
a run together. Fifteen men went
down from Portland. Some started Sat
urday afternoon, among them being
Charles Lawrence, DR.. Dow and Albert
Colesworthy. The latter had the mis-
fortune to 60 disable his wheel while
just beyond Freeport that he could not
propel it himself with the pedals. But
it would run all right if pushed or
pulled. Therefore his stwo companions
bought clothes line and attaching it
to his bicycle and to both of theirs to
wed him along with little difficulty. 1t
was country of numerous small hills,
and the way they "snaked" him down
and up again was amusing to them, but
terrifying to him. He could not control
his wheel of course and was wholly at
the mercy of circumstances. If the
rope was not kept taut he might run onto
it, and if it frightened up suddenly the
result might be equally disastrous. After
six niles of this remarkable bicycling Mr..
Colesworthy came to the CONCLUSION that
bicycle is made to be pushed and not
pulled and abandoned the journey.
About 100 bicyclers congregated at
Bath Sunday and were royalty enter
tanned. Those who arrived Saturday
were given a supper at the club rooms
and Sunday they were given a shore
dinner after the run. The only expense
to the visitors was the hotel bill for
lodging.
Several of the Portland men rode home
stopping at Freeport Sunday night and
coming in Monday morning.
A bicycler carrying his little child on
a seat in front is no novelty, but Port
land man uses his bicycle to draw the
baby carriage. He doesn't do it here
in Portland oh, no. But out in the
country where he has been staying, he
fastened a crossbar to sthe handle OF the
carriage and was able to draw it with
one hand while steering the bicycle with
the other.
