he was "A brown and white beast that
came from the West, and he had hair
as long as a skye terriers. HIS name
was Pete, which, by the way, seems to
be favorite name for donkey.
Pete joined the show fresh from the
stock yards, and, of course, he was
him as a care, and he didn't think the
white folks In the company were any
great shakes either, to judge from the
way he looked at us out OF his sleepy
eyes. The company was playing a round

where the opera-house was up long,

Pete over in the afternoon and tried TO

not have 1t. He walked to the bottom OF
the stairs all right. and then he braced
back and refused to bulge. And the
entire male strength OF the company
could not bulge him either. We pushed

a better programme at Sheepshead Bay
than Morris Park can hope to offer,
how can the latter meeting be expected

greedy, but unfair to the brighton
