business which he knew all about,
would make money, while the man
who knew about dry goods, but
worked in millinery store or a stock
of tinware, got it in the neck. He
would either get stuck on the head
milliner, or buy a stock of tinware
that would not hold water.
So a resolution was passed to the
effect that hereafter no temptation
could be great enough to get our show
to go into anything outside of the
business, no matter how good it looked
as a get-rich-quick affair. So we gath
cred up our show and played a whole
week in Oklahoma, and had full
houses all the time, and made money
enough to redeem our animals that had
been attached by creditors. We have
paid up our debts, and we got out of
Oklahoma with flying colors.
If we had gone right on to Kansas
we would have shown sense, but some
cowboys from the Indian Territory
told pa and the other managers that
If we would take the show to the In

had made grazing cattle, and the ter.
ritory was full of cowboys that had
money to burn, and they hadn't seen
q circus since the war.
Well, 1t seemed a shame to go by
the Indian Territory, and allow those
poor Indians to break their backs car
rying money around, and so we sent a
carload of bill pastors into the territory
and billed towns that would hold us
about week, and we figured that we
would clean up enough money to last
us all lifetime. I wish I didn't have
to write about the result, cause we are
broke up so we can't look pleasant to
have our pictures taken.
1t was a bright, beautiful Sunday
morning that we arrived at Muskoka,
and soon after daylight we had our
tents pitched. AS we had all day Sun.

be good idea to take all our animals
that eat grass out on the grazing
ground on the edge Of the town and
let them fill up on the nice blue grass
that was knee-high all over the coun-
try So after breakfast we detailed
men to take charge of the different
animals. and herd them out in the tall
grass. 1t was beautiful sight to see
those rare animals, gathered from all
over the world. eating grass together.

pen. The elephants wouldn't come out
of the creek, so the boss canvassman
went over to where there were about
500 cowboys and Indians on horse
back, and asked them to ride into the
creek and drive the elephants out
where the rest of the animals were, on
the prairie.
Gee, but that was the greatest mis-
take he could have made. The men
on horseback didn't want any better
fun, so they made charge, in line OF
battle, just like Sheridan's cavalry
down the bank, into the creek, yell

FOUND AFTER FIFTY YEARS
Girl Who Wandered from New York
at Age of Six Discovered
in the West.

Albuquerque, N. M.-Hester AM
! Alexander Smith, for so years a wan
derer on the face of the earth, withou
living relative known to her, has
just been identified as the daughter
| of the family of Paddocks, wealthy
farmers living near Warwick, N. Y.
who for half a century have been look
ing in vain for the missing daughter
The story of Mrs. Smiths wander
ings is good deal stranger than fic
ton. Fifty years ago, while a chile
of six years, she followed a wandering
hand organ man away from her home
one morning. The hand organ mar
had monkey and, attracted by the an
i tics OF the animal, the child followed
on and on until the itinerant musician
took her up and made her sing TO,
him as he toured the country.
The whole country aided in the
search for the child, but without re.
suit. With the hand organ man she
travelled westward and finally found
her way to the Pacific coast.
There she grew up, forgetting her
name and the names of her relatives
and only retaining a dim memory of
the scenes of her birthplace.
1t was this dim memory which has
finally restored her to her relatives
who have never forgotten the MISSING
child. Mrs. Smith has been twice mar.
ried
In 1884 she came with her family to
Silver City, N. NJ, where she buried
her husband and all Of her four chill
dren. Feeling the years creeping on
she longed for more knowledge of her
own people. Three years ago she
came to albuquerque and began the
search for her relatives. She adyer-
tised widely in eastern newspapers. de-
scribing the scenes as pictured on her
memory of her childhood days.
The result was letter from Thomas
c. Paddock, of Vernon. N. J., her cous-
in, and another from her brother.
James Paddock, of Warwick. n. Y.
who is still living at the old home.
stead. Correspondence began at once
and Mrs. Smith is soon to go to the
home of her childhood. She learned
tnat her parents had been dead for
% years and that of her. brothers and
sisters but one was living. Her rela-
tives in New York are wealthy and
have written her that she need have
no further care for the future.

in perfect peace, in this new country
The animals that we thought would
stand without hitching like the ele-
plants, were cared for by their at
tendants, but the animals that might
wander from their own fireside, were
picketed out, or held by long ropes, the
deer, the buffalo, the zebras, the sacred
cattle, the elk, the yaks, the camels
and that kind, were tied with long
lariats, and held by the men detailed
by the managers. For a couple of
hours the animals just gorged them
selves, after they had kicked up their
heels spell and rolled in the grass.
Then one Of the elephants got up on
his hind'feet and held up two toes,
like boys in school hold up two fin
gers wlren they want to go in swim
ming, and the elephant started for a
creek and went in the water, and the
whole herd followed, and they spat-
tered each other, and ducked and rolled
around just like school boys. The
whole population of the town, whites
and Indians, came to the bank of the
river to watch the fun.
Pa was holding his elk by rope.
and one of the managers had rope
around the neck of giraffe; the
treasurer and the ticket taker was
leading the zebras, and everybody was
busy with some kind of animal, and
1 had rope around an antelope, and
