stung and the whole audience stam-
peded into the open air.
Met Pa
Then L met pa, and he was a sight,
and never got stung once. The man
ayers tried to get the band to play
some tune that would soothe and hold
the audience till an explanation could
be made, but somebody had thrown a
hornets nest under the band seats and
the horn players got Gtung on the lips
so they couldn't play, and the band all
lit out for beer garden. Before L
realized 1t the show was over, and a
detective that detects for the show had
me collared and brought me up before
a meeting of the managers.
Pa was the prosecuting attorney, and
told them that l didn't run my poll.
tics fair, cause l had brought in a lot
OF ringers. The managers asked me
how the hornets nests came to be in
the Chinese lanterns. L told them they
would have to ask the negroes for how
was to know what weapons they had
concealed about their persons, any
more than pa was responsible If his
politicians carried revolvers?
They said that looked reasonable,
but they believed | knew more about
1t than anybody, but as we had to
pack up the show and make the next
town they wouldn't lynch me till the
next day. Pa got me TO put cold cream

were in the right hand ring, and a
party of female tumblers, with low
necked stockings were standing at at
tention in the left hand ring.
There was no intention of having a
riot. but when pa yelled whats the
matter with Bryan?" a negro in my
crowd yelled, That's what's the mat
ter with Bryan" and he hit pa over
the head with his Chinese lantern,
loaded with a warm hornets nest as
big as a football which had taken fire
from the candle. Pa dropped his Ian
tern and began to fight hornets, and
then all the white trash in pas bunch
rushed up and began to whack my poor
downtrodden negroes with their Chi
nese lanterns.
OF course. my fellows couldn't stand
still and be mauled and the candles
had warmed our hornets nests so the
hornets were crawling out to see what
was the trouble. Then every negro
whacked a white man with a hornets
nest and the audience fairly went wild
with excitement.
Hornets Got Busy
The hornets got busy and went for
the elephants and the Japanese Jug
glers, and they stampeded like they
never met n hornet before.
The female tumblers found hornets
on their stockings, and everywhere
and they gave a female war whoop
and rushed for the dressing room.
The elephants got stung and they came
down off their pyramid and went out
to the menagerle tent trumpeting, and
switching their trunks
The negroes and the white politicians
We're getting into a race war, so the
circus hands rushed in and separated
them, and my negroes found that the
fetty L had them rub on themselves
did not keep the hornets from stinging
them so they stampeded.
Then the hornets began to go for
the audience, and the women yelled
murder and pulled down their dresses

we had been in the hornet business all
the season and never had one of our
own men stung. | said we took some
assofoedita and rubbed it on our cloth as
and faces, and the hornets wouldn't
touch us, but just went for the other
fellows to beat the band.
Say. negroes are easy marks. You
can make them believe anything. But
If / ever get to be president 1 am going
to appoint my negro assistant to a po-
sition in my cabinet, cause he is the
greatest political organizer 1 ever saw.
He rounded up over 200 cotton pickers
and negro men who work in the
freight depots once in a while and
started them out after hornets nests.
He gave them some change to get a
drink, and promised them free passes
into the show the next night, and the
next morning they showed up with
hornets nests enough to scare you.
They put them in dark place in the
barn, so the hornets wouldn't get curl
Gus and want to come out of the nests
before they got their cue.
The Lanterns and the Nests
That afternoon we fitted them into
the Chinese lanterns, and tied sticks
on the lanterns and fixed the candles,
and when night came there were more
negroes than / could use. But l told
them to follow along, and the door
tender would let them in, and all they
need to do was to yell for Teddy when
did, and so we marched to the main
tent about the time the performance
got to going.
I saw pa with his gang of white men
Los Angeles herald., 1905-11-26

, fight if they want to, and we can see
fair play.
| So they all agreed that pa and !
| should go to Atlanta ahead, and Or
sanize the political professions, and
say, we had such time that the cir
Gus came near never getting out of the
town alive. We overdid the thing so
they wanted to lynch me, and pa
wanted to help
The way it was was this way: Pa
was to organize the white men for
Bryan, and 1 was to organize the ne
groes for Roosevelt, and we went to
work and bought 600 Chinese lanterns,
and pa stored his half of the lanterns
in a barn on the circus lot and l stored
mine in another barn owned by ne
gro that l gave five dollars to be my
assistant, with a promise that he
should have a job travelling with the
show, to milk the sacred COW.
To Be Politicians
I told this negro what the program
was, and that / wanted 200 negroes
who had an ambition to be politicians,
and hold office, and I would not only
pass them into the show free. but see
that they got permanent office.
What we had got to do, said, was
to stampede the white procession, that
would be led by pa, and the way to do
it was for every negro in my party to
skirmish around in the woods and find
a hornets nest, and bring it to our
barn and fit it into one of the Chinese
lanterns and fix candle on top Of the
nest while the hornets were asleep.
Then when we met the Bryan process
sion we were to shout and wave our
lanterns, and II necessary to whack the
white men over the head with the Ian
tern with the hornets nest. and the
hornets would wake up and do the
rest.
The negro wanted to know how I
could prevent the hornets from sting
ing our own men, and / told him that

best way to get the people excited

"EMPRESS" ON THE STAGE
jacques Lebaudy's Former Companion

Thaakar
Theater

Madame de Dion, the companion OF
Jacques Lebraudy, whom he for some
time designated empress of the Sahara,
has been displaying her accomplish
mentS upon the variety stage in Berlin
with more or less success The story
told by the German press agents is
that she and Lebaudy quarreled be-
cause she refused to make her entrance
into the Sahara towns ON the back Of
q camel.
notwithstanding this. all the bill
boards in Berlin heralded her coming
with highly colored pictures of a lady
riding upon a dromedary, clad in a
costume Of green leaves, which, the
irreverent German paragraphers point
out, is much more suitable to the eli
mate of the Sahara than to that Of
northern Germany.
Toward the end Of the performance
at the theater where she appears two
negroes, wearing turbans and tropical
suits OF linen, trot upon the stage, car
rying a sort of sedan chair. Out Of
this the empress of Sahara emerges,
clad i'm an everyday variety stage toilet
of black jet trimmed with lunches of
violets. She mods In friendly but rather
careless style to the audience and sings
two songs, the first being a sentimental
one, and the other of decidedly oppo-
site character-New York Sun.
