TODD BROS., Belton, S. C. Doc ?, 18S? 22 n A SHOWMAN'S STORY, A Lifo Extent Among Animals und lu the King. A Showman's life. ? It is a prefty hard ooe, but like most every other life it is Dot without its rewards and pleasures. But all in-all it is a career not so desir? able, and so rose-tinted as many might imagine. With some it is comparatively little work and big pay, with others it is all work and no pay. "There is a great deal of difference between shows now and shows in times gone by," said one who has grown up in the business, and who until a few months ago, knew comparative little about any other Bort of life. The speaker was Mr. J. W. Havens, the keeper of the G rant park zoo. His face is familiar to frequenters of the park, and he has become quite a feature of its attractions, with his graphic stories of life under the canvas. He ia thor? oughly in love with his work among Ute animals of the menagerie und is familiar with their wants and necessities as-a parent with the care of {p child. Mr. Havens has spent the past seventeen years among the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, in connection with the numberless shows and menageries all over the country. He has bearded the lion in bis very den, and two of those that are now caged up in Grant park wore captured by hia own hand in the mountains of Mexico. "Yes," he continued, as be patted the big lion, Molly, on the noss, in her cage at the zoo yesterday, "the show business isn't what it used to be. It has been ruined, you might say, by high license ?Dd fakirs; by fakirs, I mean the sharpers who hang on to every show that is big enough to spo'rt a tent, and who has brought everyone connected with the business into disrepute by their knavery. Then there used to be a time when everybody about a show worked, when the high kicker, the rider, rope walker and all used to turn in and lend a hand at the work of putting up tents and the like of that. But that's all changed now. The actors have got to think they are better'n the balance of the boys, and in place of the good old-fashioned one riDg show, where everybody could see and hear, it's two and three rings, with a rush from start to finish. No, 3ir, the show business ain't what it used to be; it's changed." "Tell me something about your circus life" j "We'^e seen a good deal, havn't we, Molly," aud the keeper again caressed the great shaggy head that pressed up close to the bars of the cage by his side. "Yes, we have been together a long time J ?Molly and me. I captured her when I she was a cub, and i Rough she has been owned by a dozen different shows, we'ye I never been separated for long at a time. I She's not the gentlest creature in the J world, but with me she's as friendly as a kitten. .Did she ever hurt anybody, did you ask ? Yes, she has killed her man. It happened in Cairo, 111., about two years ago on a parade. You seeT wa3 in I one cage with that spotted fellow down j yonder and Pearl Atwood, another trainer, was in the cage with Molly, here. We never could tel! just how it happened, bat all at once the lioness sprang up and struck Pearl on the back with her paws. Tne blow paralyzed him and in two months he died. It was pretty bad, but j such things will happen, you know, and the worBt of it is, when they do occur, the I people say, oh well, he was a fool any? how for going in there with the beast." I "Don't you ever get them trained so j they won't go back on you ?" "I don't care how well trained au ani I mal is a man is always in danger when J he is in reach of their paws or fangs. You j can make them let you put your head in their mouths, but every time you do it you might as well say your prayers. You hear some folks talk about charming snake charmers und. such like. That's all nonsense. It is nothing in the world but nerve. If you had the courage you could go into that cage there with Rose j or Molly with just as much safety as I do. All you've got to do ia to make J them know that you're the boss, that you are not afraid of them." j A loud roar from "the Btriped jauguar I interrupted the keeper. The animal had been aroused by a small boy with ajstick. After quieting his jauguarsbip by a few words, coupled with the neeessary ges? tures, Mr. Haven continued : J "Let's see?oh, yes, I was telling you I about training 'em. I'll just give you a little instance of how it's done. It w&s only a little more than a year ago. The show I was with then was in New Or I leans, and while there we ran across a big Russian bear named Marcus. Mar I cu8 had also killed his man, and his owner was very anxious to get rid of him. Well, we bought the bear, but he was so savage that it was impossible-to get him, I from one cage to another. I was deter? mined, though, to tame him enough to lead by a collar. One day I put three I muzzles on him in trying to get a collar I around his neck to lead him, but he tore J the whole three to pieces. Finally, how I ever, I got the collar on and succeeded in getting Marcus out and in.tying him to a I stake. But I bad no sooner done this j than he turned upon me, lacerating my j legs very badly with his claws and teeth. I This made me mad and I picked up a tent stick and clubbed him till I thought he was dead. He lay as still as a corpee I for some time, aud then, thinking I had I him I went up close to his side. But j Marcus wasn't dead worth a cent. When I I got to him he rose and actually licked my face. I had conquered, and after that I had no trouble in handling him, though he was vicious as ever toward everybody else, nearly killing a boy sometime after? ward." "What became of Marcus; that isn't I him out there in the park, is it?" ?'No; he was shot and killed by some fellows .that were afraid of him. Up in [ Newport, Teno., Marcus, who was then owned by the Hall & Bingley show that I went to pieces here last spring, got loese I by his cage breaking down and made many things lively there for a time, I tell you. He made for the country with mo after bim. I could get witbin ^en feet of him, but ho wouldn't let me come any closer. Finally we came to a large mill pond, on the far side of which was a J cancbrake. Mr. Bear plunged into the water and took refuge in the cane, f secured a boat'and followed. When I came in sight, Marcus started up a tree, but before he goi up too high I grasped his collar and pulled him down. As quick as he hit the ground, he was up and off, only stopping to Bbow his teeth 1 and growl. Ho made for thebauk of tho pond again and came out of the cane I right where ray boat was. I don't know what made me do it, but when 1 saw Marcos looking at the boat, I suddenly gave the commond, 'get in that boat, sir,' and in be got, very much to my Mirpr^c, as well a3 that of the boys who were waiting for me on tho other bank. Well, I pushed the boat off, jumping in the bow. Slowly I rdoved along till I got to. .the oar.j. When I picked them up Mar? cus took a step or two backward and get? ting on the steru seat sat straight up, just like a man. On the other side of the pond t he boys threw me Home apples and a rope. The fruit put Marcus in a good humor and I finally got the rope over his head, and lead him back to the show. "In Mobile, while I was off"on a vaca? tion, Marcus got out again. Everybody Was a afraid of him, and he had to be I Bhot before he could De captured. Five balls were fired into him, and it's tunny, but every one of the five wounds but the last were nearly plugged with hair before he bit the 'dust, and the shots were all fired inside of five minutes, too." "You've seen a good many ups and downs in your show life, haven't you ?" "Yes, but I'm done with it now. It's the hardest life a man can lead?two and three hours sleep a day, damp tents for a bed, and nothing but rags to wear and coarse food to eat. I always had a pretty good place and could easily get a job now at $150 or $200 a month, but I've quit the business for good. It's tough, the bosses, the men and the work. ? "See that scar there on my breast. I got that from being a showman. The bullent went clear through and was taken out at the ba3e of my shoulder blade." "How did it happen?" "I was with the Cole show out in Col? orado?Leadville. We had given the , afternoon performance, and the evening show was just beginning, when four me n, armed to the teeth, rode up, aud, hock? ing the team to the ticket wagon, started off at a gallop. There was $15,000 in that wagon, and in an instant we all knew what was up. Before the thieves had got very far the whole circus ga-g was'in hot pursuit.' It was dark, and the fellow that was driving the wagon missed his road somohow, running off to the side in a gully. As soon as this occurred the thieves pulled their guns and prepared to keep us back from the wagon. I rushed on up, and when I was near the window of the wagon one of the thieves put a ball in me for my trouble. It was a pretty close shave, but I finally pulled through. "Down in Mexico they had mo in jail because the elephant wouldn't lot me put my head in his mmith. I've been tramped on ? by a camel and thrown almost to the top of the tent by an ele? phant. "I've seen dozens of fights between the circus people and crowds of toughs. Once they cut our teuts literally to pieces and ran nine wagons of animals into the river. I've seeu?woll, yes, you may eay I've seen a good many ups and downs in my circus career." It was supper time, and Molly and Kate were roaring for their feed. The ex-showman fished up a fork full of raw ?beef and shoved it into the cage occupied by ths ugly looking hyena; then, amid the most unearthly roaring by the entire menagerie, he repeated the dose at every i cage, not neglecting to drop an armful of fresh clover between the bars to tte frisky little monkeys?that'd bis daily work now. The Grant park menagerie is interest ? ing, and bo are the stories of its keeper, ?Ed. AT. D., in Atlanta Constitution. I m Mother's Day. She was a woman of about sixty, the wife of a Pennsylvania farmer. There was not a picturesque or unusual point about her; she was tall, lean and round Bbouldered. Indeed, as she walked with loDg, loping strides from the kitchen to to the cellar, the cow yard or the wood 1 shed, hhe bore an absurd likeness to the gaunt hound that followed her. Her day was not eventful. She arose at four in the morning and made up the fires in the stoves. Her husbaud aud sons were asleep. "Men," she said, "hated house work." She did not call the girls until breakfast was nearly ready, because "youog things ceeded sleep," She milked five cows before the sun was fairly up. The farmer, his five children and two farmhands sat down to breakfast, aud she. poured out the coffee and baked the cakes which they ate. After they had "finished she ate ln<r own breakfast, if she cared for any. Then came washing or ironing or scrubbing or baking until it* , was time fur the heavy noon meal which she cooked. Her daughters used some? times to help a little, but in an idling half hearted way. Sometimes she would drive them cut with a queer pathetic smile. "Y'oung folks like pleasure. They ou^ht to have their fuu !" she would say. There was iho morning work to finish after the dinner was over. It was a large farm, and the men were hearty eaterB. She "laid down" great quantities of meats and canned dried vegetables. After supper was over, everybody found Bome recreation but mother. The furmer smoked, the young folks visited the neighbors or gathered at one end of the porch chattering and laughing. Mother was inside at work, sewing or with her great basket of stockings. She would look out at them smiling. "They like their fun," she would say. She looked at theiu again sometimes as if, old as she was, she would like some fun. too, but she never joined them. Tbey were with the friends whom they had made at college and school. Mother had been very little at school when she was young. Besides, she had no time for idling. Sometimes when who was making shirts for the boys she worked until midnight. One evening her youngest girl read her a story, which she thought would suit her mother's intellect. It touched and pleased her g|flfttly. She spoke of it for a year afterward.^ One of her days was like all the others, except the Sunday, when she had timo to go to- church. She was very happy there, but especially when they sang any hymn which .iho had known as a girl; she would join, scarcely above her breath, for she knew her voice wascmeked. When strangers remarked that she was growing thin, her children replied that it was no wonder. Mother's energy would wear the flesh from any woman's body, iier appetite failed, the very smell of the salt meat and cabbage which Bhe cooked nauseated h?r. She used to 'nisten eagerly when they lalkrd of the frnits which could be bought in the city. But nobody noticed it. "Mother" had always been the motive power, which had kept the whole machinery in motion. It never occurred to anybody that tbo power could be exhausted. Ono day, however, wben they came down to breakfast, the table was not spread, and the fires were not lighted. For tbo first time in her life, wben she was needed, mother lay in her bed elill and quiet. Sbo would never work for them more. After they had buried her they knew how much they had loved her. The!r grief was sincere and deep. Tbey never wearied in talking of her unfailing gen? tleness, her tender patience, her perfect unselfishness. None of them seemed to think, how? ever, that by any effort of theirs they could have kept her with tbem still, loving, patient and unselfish. Our homely story is a true one. We have told it with a purpose. Are tbcre no*such mothers and children as these in other homes?
