them laughed and said Hello, Bill p and "Ah,
therep and Get on to his collar" and lot
of other things.
The little husky preacher had a Salvation
Army girl to play the melodeon, and he didn't
take any notice of the remarks the boys made
except to set his jaws together and moisten
his lips. Finally they were all seated and he
got up to open the services, when big can
vasman, regular smart Aleck, got UP on a
seat and said:
"Pardner how are you going to open this
jack pot?"
Crowd Laughed
The crowd laughed and the preacher pulled
his long blue gun up out of his pocket and laid

he came on to do his stunt. Their idea was to
wait until he got well on his sermon and then
begin to interrupt him and ask questions, and
finally to get blanket and toss him UP few
times for luck, and then chase him out and
have the circus bulldog, that chews the clowns
pants, catch the minister's coat tail and just
scare him plum to death.
Big Picnic
The boys said it would be the biggest picnic
that ever was-a regular barbecue. The boss
canvasnan said he was opposed to mixing re-
ligon with the circus business because the
fellows could get all the religion they needed
in the winter, when the show was laid up, and
he would see the boys through in anything
Los Angeles herald., 1905-08-13

Big Ike, who asked me how was going to open
this jack pot to come down in front Of the
seats and lead in the singing, for know by
his voice, which heard in debate, that he is
crackerjack," and the preacher took hold of
the handle of the blue gun and Big Ike walked
down through the rows of seats and as the
melodeon began to squawL Ike got down in
front of the audience and some of the boys
said Bully for you, Ike and after scratching
his head minute Ike turned and walked
toward the preacher at the edge of the ring,
and thought there was going to be the worst
fight ever was, and as the preacher reached for
the gun l crawed Under the seat and peeked
out between the legs of fat man. but Ike
walked up to the minister and said, as the me
lodeon began to cough: Boys, this tune is on
Ike" He started it and every man sang
Wanted an Encore
When it was ended the boys clapped and
stamped for an encore, and they sang it through
again, and the face of the preacher beamed with
Joy, and l saw there was not going to be any
fight and 1 crawled out from under the seats
Pa came in the tent just then with new
suit of clothes on, having been discharged from
the hospital as cured of yellow fever, and
gave him my seat and he held me in his lap.
The preacher then preached sermon that
did them all good. He dwelt upon the hard
life of the Snowman and gave them such good
advice that when it was all over, and he said
he wanted to shake hands with every man in
the bunch, Ike marshaled them all UP to the
ring and introduced them and no minister ever
was more cordially congratulated, and they
wanted him to go along with the show and
preach every Sunday.
The preacher said he couldn't join the show,
but he Travelled good deal and he would
probably be in the same town with the show
several times during the summer, and he would
drop in on them occasionally and keep them
straight.
Saw the Sailor
Pa was watching the crowd for the sailor
who prescribed cayenne pepper for yellow
fever, and when he saw the sailor come tip
to the minister with tears in his eyes and say:
"Parson, has been a bad man and killed a
man once, but he was a Portuguese sailor and
he had the drop on me, the same as you did
on Big Ike at the opening of these proceedings,
and had to kill him. And begs the pardon
of this old gentleman for lying to him." And
then pa shook hands with the sailor and the
parson, and the parson put his blue gun down
his trousers leg and said: "By the way, the
bulldog you were going to let take lunch
off me; is he all rght?"
Then the parson and the girl went away,
and the boys carried out the melodeon and the
quarantine was declared off. After dinner the
boys took down the tents and put them on the
train that Sunday afternoon, singing decent
songs as they pulled up the stakes and rolled
up the canvas, and on the train late in the
night we could hear "Old Hundred" being
sung as the cars ran through the pennyrial
district of Indiana

Pa Fixed a Cage


Pa fixed up one of the cages, with the girls
BACKED up as Hottentots and pa and BACKED
up as an African king and prince of the blood,
and we did stunts in the cage at afternoon and
evening performances, and the crowd could
not keep away from Our cage until pa got hot
and unbuttoned his shirt, and before we knew
it everybody saw pas white skin below where
his face and neck were BACKED, and while we
were talking gibberish to each other country
lake got mad and he led crowd to open the
cage and make us remove our shirts to prove
that we were Hottentots.
When they found we were white people
blacked up they wanted their money back, and
were going to tip over the cage, when pa saved
the day by making a speech at the evening
performance to the effect that we were all yell
low fever refugees from New Orleans, and the
mob lit out on the run for the main tent, where
they announced that there were four cases of
fever in the menagerie tent and that settled it.
The mayor and police closed the show on
account of yellow fever and we couldn't get
out of the tent Pa had been quite close to the
yellow girls, and when he found out that yell
low fever was a disease that catches you when
not looking, and in fifteen minutes you look
like corpse, and in four hours you are liable
to be sure enough corpse, he shook the yell
lew girls, and asked an old sailor what man
ought to do who has been exposed to yellow
fever, and the old sailor who has had yellow
fever lots of times, told pa to strip off his
clothes and take bath of prepared mustard
and rub it in thoroughly, and then wipe it off
and take vinegar rub, and after that sprinkle
little red pepper on himself, Put on different
clothes and drink about gallon of red lemon
ade and he could defy yellow fever.
Pa an Easy Mark
Pa is an easy mark and he believed the old
sailor, who is tattooed and makes a show of
Los Angeles herald., 1905-08-13

Well we have had row for your life and
all the excitement anybody can stand. We
got into Indiana and have had yellow fever
scare, quarantine that lasted one night, so
nobody could sleep on Our train, riot at Ev-
ansville cause we took on a couple of female
trapeze women that came from Honduras via
New Orleans, and revival of religion, all in
one bunch, and pa is beginning to get haggard,
like hag.
The female trapeze performers, who had
been expected ever since started on the
road, had been quarantined at New Orleans,
where the yellow fever is raging, and finally
got through the quarantine guard somewhere
in Mississippi, and got to us Saturday after
noon, and some official telegraphed to the
mayor that two yellow fever refugees had
struck his town to join the circus, and he or
dered the chief of police to hunt them out and
put them in pest house The Honduras fe-
males were yellow as saffron, but it was caused
by the climate of Honduras, but the whole
show was scared to death for fear we would
all have yellow fever, and the management
detailed pa and to hide the yellow girls from
the police
