rAS AMD SAWDUST. TUB CRT OR “HEY! RCRK." Th« Buttle CmU •! the ClreM Staa-A >4>» at the OnoeaWiaa Leon Which U haa RaleetL A few evenings since, a number of ac tors chanood to discuss the attack in Dover, Del, upon the people of O'Brien’s circus, and the question was raised whether or not the cry of, “Hey Bubo I” is, as was affirmed in the pub lished accounts of that occurrence, the 1 . circus men's rallying cry for war. Mr. W. 0. Coup, the veteran circus manager, settled it. Just os ho came in, some one of the party tested him by an exper imental yell pt “Hey! Rube!” at his back,and his instantaneous jump and look of combined alarm and ferocity were reply enough for even the most skeptical, | He said: “That is a terrible ory to any man who has ever seen its oonscqnenoet, and it gives me a cold feeling down my back even to hear it in conversation. It means savago force, desperate combat, ami too often death. A man who has heard that yell sounded in earnest, ns I have, will not monkey with it even in a parlor, among ladies and children,- 1 1 don't know what its origins was, or how it came to bo so universally recognized. I only know that ever ainoo I have boon in the business or known anything ... a 1 tout it, that has been the circus men’s slogan. It used to be equal to immedi ate discharge for a man to yell that jdamt my show. Why, Fd rather have given a thousand dollars any minute tlian hear it from one of my man. Fire it up in tho air once ami it brings to gether, as if by magic, two or three hnn- ered men, all there are abont the show, generally powerful and determined fel- lows, armed, perhaps, only with stakes and clubs, but stakes and dubs are ter rible weapons in the hands of such men, and wild with excitement, and ready f ,r a desperate and pitiless fight, for they know that is what tho rallying cry means. * “It signifies to them. 'Ton have to fight for your liv(*s, and to stand by one another or bo kilted.’ Thank God, it is l.-ss necessary pow than it used to be in early days of ofrons fife in this country'. I sayJ necessary ’ for there was a time— and sometimes it comes nowadays when oirena men had no other reoourHo than to fight or be slnnghtered, and then they had tc stand together. Very sel dom, if indeed ever, have the circus men begun a row. It wan against all their interests to have oner Aside from the very likely change of being killed in it,, the best they could hope for would do wounds, injuries, and consequent illness in a strango and hostile community, or arrest perhftjw where bail would be out of the question and fair trial very pro blematical; and if they were overcome by the mob, their tent and wagons might be destroyed, and tho show totally mined and all its proplo thrown out of employment “Yes, I’ve heard ‘Hey I Rube I’ a good many times. I hoard it onee at Manchester, N. H., when I was running the Barnum show. On the morning of our arrival there I found a hastily con structed shed, used ns a whisky saloon, on the lot we had contracted for. I asked the man to remove it, but ha fp- fused, and defied me to remove it I found that ho was backed up by a fear ful crowd of roughs, and the Marshal of the town told me that I had better not get into a row with the saloon keeper; so rather than to have a disturbance I let him remain, but rcquestjpl him not . to allow any of the circus employees to have liquor in his saloon. $0 prom ised that ho would not, btflTvHied, as I subsequently discovered. AH day my men were getting liquor there, coming in contact with the town roughs, and gradually the trouble grew. • “Just before supper I saw a gang of fully a hundred men, armed with clnbs, come out of tho woods neat the horse tents, which were some little distance from the others. Someliody jniped the old yell qf ‘Hey ! Rube 1’ and in a min ute the cireiwwOH ready for attack. In those days nobody carried a pistol, in the North, at least, but wo all had stakes and clubs. I managed to get between the two <3<mds a and, causing a parley, detained them from fighting until on ex tra force of the local police got on the ground, and so the trouble was averted It was one of the very few eases in which I have heard of that rallying cry being sounded without bloodshed following it quickly. In Lewiston, Maine, dfc was raised again, and we had a terrible fight, broken bones, split skhlls, and all that sort of thing. No, I didn’t discharge the man who yelled ‘ Hey 1 Rubo I ’ on either occasion, bco&uso I could not find out who he was. ' ' “Only last year when my show was in Cartersville, Ga., I happened to be away from it just at the time, and a desperate riot occurred that might possibly have been prevented, even there, if I had been present The Marshal of the town, a regular ruffian, came up to the can when men wets loading up the show, and cracked one of them over the head with He got hull Then some of his friends chipped in, a mob gathered, ‘Hey 1 Rube!’ was shouted, and when the scrimmage was over three dead men were found lying about In that fight firearms were used, as well os clubs and stones, bat the circtaWld its own. —* “AtLa Salle, Hh, l*at season, my people came awfully near having a des perate fight with Hie quarrymen, who were determined to have it, but I hap pened to be on the ground, and managed to ooutreimy men.

While inspecting tho remains of tlw notorious criminal the attention of your (Vorroppk>ndoot was directed to the extraordinary whiteness of the bones and their xesemblauco to ]>olished ivory. No attempt has been made to articnlate tho skeleton, and the trays bear no number by which they could be distin guished from similar receptacles in the museum. “Look in that paper box over there if you want to see an interesting skull," said the guide, pointing to'a deep hat- box on a small table strewn with bones and took used by Anatomists. There was a highly-polished skull In the box and rn tho right side wss the defection which the insanity experts wrangled about during the trial. The attrition of tho guide was drawn to this fact, but he laughed at the idea of its being an indication of insanity. A perfectly symmetrical head,*’said > he, “would bo ns rare as a white black bird. Out of 1,800 skulls examined nt tho museum during tho dispute about Guitean’s head only one was found per fect, and that is now down stairs in one of tho exhibition cases. ” - It was ascertained that in preparing tho bouea of the dead murderer more than usual core had been taken to pre serve them, and oonseqnently the skeleton, when mounted, will bo tho best m the collection of tho museum. It has been deemed advisable, for pru- d' nfial reasons, to keep the bones in a st cure place until they can be exhibited to Visitors, but all talk -about their identity having been lost is bosh. One of the first questions of the tourist do ing Uie museum is to be shown Guiteau’s skeleton, and in order to escape being bored tho surgeon in charge has declined to ascertain its-location in the building. Tho-prooess by which the bones were" treated insures their perpetuation for au indefinite period, and Anatomist E. F. Holrafhirtt gave his personal attention to the work. Not a bone has been lost; and, as before stated, when articulated the skeleton will be the best in the museum. The plaster easts of his skull have tho same indentations as the real head. The coffin in which the remains of the assassin j were removed from the jail thn'e days after burial is retained at tho museum, but tho outer box is still in the ground at the jail.

The latter, with n gang of Bohemians, hail ruoruhped for tho night on a plot of waste ground near Montrogue. Early on the following morning tlie butcher passed by and was accosted by one of the men, who offered to sell him a sheep for twenty f ones. The price was de clared tq be too high ; eighteen francs were offered, and refused ; after which tlie butcher went on his way. The mo ment his back was turned, the gypsy took the sheep ont of* the sack in which ho had placed it, put a little boy into it in its stead, and, running after the butcher, called ont: , . “ Make it twenty francs, and the sack is yours into the bargain. ’’ This time cohsent was given, the mon- y paid and the sack, carried away. On reaching homo the purchaser opened it, only to eatcli a glimpse of a diminntive nrchin, who. took to his heels with the bag Itefore the other hod recovered from his amazement. As a matter of course, ho lodged a complaint with the police, but when the fpot whqre ha had met w ith the gipsies was visited there was no sign of them left, nor have they since been heard of. _ _, That celebrated ship, the Great Enst- ciu, .
