Marceline, the famous little clown
at the London Hippodrome. commands
the largest salary of any man IN MS
line. but he has another claim to dis
tinction of which he is still prouder.
He once saved the life of king-the
iyoung king of Spain. That youthful
monarch was taken to witness toe
performance of a circus with which
IMarCeline was travelling. While the
clown was standing at the wings
awaiting his cue. an elephant was
seized with a sudden fit of fury anu
charged straight for the roya! box.
Had he reached It he would have
smashed it and crushed the life out OF
everybody in IT, II wasn't the cue
Narceline was waiting for, but II
served Just as well Darling across
the arena he succeeded in divertinE
the elephants attention to himself.
The onragcd brute charged upon him
and then his acrobatic skill stood him
/, good stead. He gave one of the
finest exhibitions of jumping ever wit
messed and managed To elude the
beast until assistance arrived and II
was nut under control. King Alton
So personally thanked him and. as a
more permanent proof of his graft
tude. presented him with an oil por-
trait OF himself in gold frame.
Narceline has given 1850 consecu-
tive performances an the London Hip

Florence Roberts is closer to the

other actress, native or foreign. 1hey
regard her as their own and feel IL
warm personal interest in the achieve
ments which have extended her fame
far beyond the limits of the Paclfc
Coast field to which she confines her
self. This is Miss Roberts fourth

Shooting Scrape Near Cadet.

What may prove to be serious
shooting aifray took place last Friday
night at the home Of Widow King,
near Cadet, where dance was in pro-
grcss at the time. According TO the
reports of the affair that have reach
ed us it seems that a disturbance was
created in the house by young man
named Elmer Gof1, or at least ne was
alleged to be the cause OF it, aud was
elected by two brothers named Ben
and jerome Boyer. After the parties
had gotten out OF the house in the
yard the shooting, which is also charg-
ed iu yoang Gof, began Both OF the
Boyer boys were each struck once by
the flying bslicts and each was wound
ed in.the abdomen. The ball which
struck Jerome glanced off, intliciing
only slight wound, but that whic h
| struck Ben penetrate the abdominal
cavity, and, it is feared, his inj ury is
serious. Yoan2 Goff was in PotoSi
Saturday, accompanied by his father,
'Sonire Wm. Gntf, to surrender him
self to the authorities. but as no it,
! formation had been >h'ed against him
he was not held. Young COTS face
showed evidences that lie had been in
engaged in fight, aud it is alleged by
some that he was not the aggressor ia
the affair. BE thatas it may, tae shoot
ing is but another attributable to the
common practice OF pistol packing.
