THE CIRCUS wALKAwAY MONEY
Perquisite of the Ticket Sellers
ONCE.
From the New York Sun.

Office.
From the New York Sun.
1.-THE best snap with any show is
that of selling tickets" said the vet
eran circus man. "Give me the walka-
way money of any good-sized show,
and care not who get the big sal
aries. The walkaway money is the
varying pile of coin that is left behind
by the hasty men who forget about
having change coming to them, and ii
amounts to many dollars in the course
of a month. With even the smallest
shows it amounts to considerable, and
with the big ones it will go as high as
S25 a performance sometimes.
"On nearly every occasion when a
show is in town some fellow will go
home sore and charge that he was
short-changed, when the fact is he was
at fault himself. There is always a
rush at the wagon, and when a man
sticks a dollar inside the window he is
in a hurry to get inside the big tent
and see the animals.
He will either grab the change at
the same time he gets his ticket, or he
will walk away and leave 1t behind.
If be doesn't return with a holler, the
money is showed to one side in the
walk-away pile. and goes into the tick
ct mans pocket after the sale is over.
The rakeon is a perquiste of the ticket
seller, because when there is any
shortage, when the tickets at the door
do not correspond with the cash on
hand he makes good
THE West is the rich field for the
ticket seller. Out at Cripple Creek $50
gold pieces are more plentiful than
dollars, and there have been times in
that region when the walk-away
money amounted to as much as $3.50 a
day.
THE miners all turn out to a show,
and they1all pay in gold. A man will
come up, slap down a $40 gold piece
and walk away without his change,
because his attention is momentariiy
attracted by a conversation or a call
from friend. One or two come back
and make a yelp, and their money is
promptly handed out 10 them.
with big show the rakeoff from
this source Will run up 10 an average
Of nearly $50 a day. II a man comes
around and puts up kick about being
short-changed. he cannot get up an
argument with the ticket seller His
orders are that as long as he has any
walkaway money in sight he Is TO shell
out.
"Of course. II there has been none
left behind az that particular perform
ance. the kicker gets turned down, be-
cause be is known 70 be liar. but
as general proposition a man who

The Largest Spider,

The largest spider ever discovered
is found up in the mountains of Cey-
lon. The home it builds could scarce
ly be called web; it is huge snare,
or net, Of yellow silk from five to ten
feet in diameter. This is spread
across the assures and chasms in the
rocks. This net Is almost strong
enough for hammock. and its sup
porting ropes range from five to TWEEN
ty feet, as the circumstances may de-
mand. These ropes are made of Sc
ries of twisted webs, and are about
as large in diameter as lead pencil.
This huge trap is not set for flies
and mosquitoes, but for birds and big
moths and butterflies. Sometimes
even small skeletons of birds and liz
ards have been found enmeshed. The
spider who Gyms this big web is about
four and half inches in width and
six in length, and its legs are from
nine to ten inches long

Won PLEHVEs SUCCESSOR.
Count Muravief Said to Be Re-
former.

Count Muravief Said to BE IA Re-
former.
st. Petersburg Aug 1.-The APP
pointment of Count Nicholas V, Muir
avief to succeed the assassinated Won
Plehve, appears, on the surface, to be
a cOnciliatory move.
Muravieff, besides being president of
the Hague tribunal, and an ardent adj
vocate of arbitration, has been more
or less of a reformer and liberal all his
life. He was born in 1850 and with
his late brother, the minister OF for
eign affairs, was instrumental in re-
forming the Russian penal system,
undertaking the rigors and utilizing
the vast resources of Siberia. His
idea it was to release prisoners and let
them colonize the fertile portions of
that immense province. The brothers
were also instrumental in building the
TRANSIT berian railroad
MuravieH was formerly secretary
of state for st. Petersburg and, in 1892,
he was made president of the criminal
section of the senate, the highest Grim
inal court of appeal in Russia. In this
position he was lenient to degree
hitherto unheard of in Russia. He
was made minister of judicial reform
in Astrak han, Archangel and Siberia,
furnishing corrupt judges severely.
