MOB BREAKS
UP A CIRCUS
Bareback Rider Thrown From
Her Horse And Trampled.
Several Injured.

The performance of the Queen and
Crescent circus at Seaford, Wednes-
day evening ended in general fight
between the showmen and a mob Of
drunken white men and negroes. Several
of the showmen were badly beaten, and
the head of one white man, Charlie
Jones, of Seaford, was cut open by a
black jack.
The trouble started when Jones, it is
alleged, demanded money from Nine
Levere. the bareback rider, for whiskey
which she had asked him to buy for her
and which she refused to pay for She
was thrown from her horse in excite
ment and trampled on. The mob ran
into the ring and the showmen fled.
The snake charmer threw his snakes in
the face of the crowd and jumped in
front of train. Two men pulled him
back just in time to have him from
death.
The Town Council was in session at
the time and the showmen made rush
for the Council room. asking for pro-
lection. The streets were paraded un-
til after midnight by the mob, and not
until early this morning was order
restored.

According to Mr.. Kally's story, he
came in with another man on n. 3
Saturday night aand intended to go
to work at some point on the Mon-
tana Central Tie two of them hunt
ed for some cheap place to SLEEP and
finally nested IN Frank Ch.stnut's
stable. On leaving in the morning
they spied the saddle but did MT lake
it then. The sight Of the loose pro-
>perty evidently worked on x ly's
mind continually as he returned later
in the day and swiped the sadd e. s IL
ing it to John G. Ba ley for $500.
Later in the day Mr.. Ba ley sold t 70

Mr.. Chestnut missed his property

Bailey to Kelly.

and he can give no reason for his ate
theivery. He was tried bef re Judge
Allen last. Monday, who gave him six
months In Jail and 5000 90 fine. The
latter will probably be served out in
jail also. Mr.. Kelly is evidently @uf-
