Seriously, he remarked that among
the physicians of New England there
could be found more men who labored
for mankind rather than for the good
of their own pOckets-more than from
any other section of the country. The
lovely fraternity existing between the
New England doctor and the life in
surance agent he remarked upon In the
same humorous strain that had fea-
tured his earlier effort. He told It in
rhyme and with such wit and innuendo
as to thoroughly capture the interest

HOW BAILEY BEAT BARNUM.
And That at the Veteran Showman's Own
Game, Advertising.

One OF the elephants with the Barnum-
Bailey circus was the means of making
the fortune that MIR. Bailey is credited
with possessing. 1t was as Il baby phcnoIn-
cnon that the pachyderm did the good
turn for tho successor of 'thc great and
only Barnum."
Columbia is the name of tho creature,
and of the hundreds of raro animals in
the aggregation none is treasured moro
highly than she, now huge, ungainly
and overgrown creature with not half the
wit possessed by the smallest elephant con-
nccted with the circus.
1t was away back in 1880, when the
news got around that the first elephant
born in captivity was living and travel
ing with the Bailey show. Mr. Bailey was
struggling young circus owner then,
battling against fearful odds. Barnum
was at the height of his most remarkable
carccr-at the very topmost notch of cir
Gus fame.
Mr.. Barnum, quick to see the advantage
of having so important an attraction as q
real American baby elephant, tclcgraphcd
to Mr.. Bailey as follows:
"Will give 500, 600 for your baby elc-
phant. Must have it,
Mr.. Bailey wired in answer, "Will not
sell at any price.
This seemed daring thing for Mr..
Bailey to do, for 100000 would almost
have purchased the entire show Even Mr..
Bailcy's best friends, whom he consulted
in the matter, advised him to accent the
offer. Instead of doing that he refused it
and hustled cast with his circus to meet
Barnum on his own ground
BY the time that the Bailey circus
reached the cast the whole country was
billed with posters on which was printed
''What Barnum Thinks OF the Baby Elc-
phant." Underneath that heading was
printed Barnum's telegram to Mr.. Bailey
AS the Bailey show followed in tho wake
of the Barnum circus each town in which
the Barnum aggregation appeared was
billed with the Bailey postera
Probably the Bailey advertising did not
affect the attendance at the Barnrm Cir
Gus. Mr. Bailey has since said that he
thought that it did not. But the advcr-
tiscmcnts staring the veteran Snowman in
tho face everywhere he went worried him
and finally to dodge the huge posters he
changed the route of his circus, although
that routine had been determined upon
nearly ~ months in advance. He jumped
from New York to Kansas City and sur
rendered the whole eastern field to the
Bailey show. Tho next year tho two
shows were consolidated and have been
ono show ever since.
Mr.. Barnum's one joke with MIR. Bailey
as long rs tho shrcwd old circus manager
was alive was, "Wcll, have you any more
baby elephants that you do not want to
sell?"-Ncw York Press

The count is now in Chicago He is

The count is at homo everywhere. He
has slept in almshouscs, lodging houses
and palaces, and is as contcnted in hut

documents no always carries with him, ho

he took the trail over tho Klondikc region

over most of the Garth, ho says, not hav-
ing money enough to always ride when
going from one country to another, and.
MS a rule, he prefers that method of getting
around
"Whcn say that I have seen the inside
