Alongside of it, the circus he had recently belonged to was merely a side show. Sanderson was a brisk, business-like fellow. He soon settled on an engagement for Miss Starr and Billy and Midget for the rest of the season. "I don't think I can use the boy, though," he said, glancing at Andy. "Then you can't have us," said the equestrienne promptly.
He is extremely fond of modeling small animals, many of which can be seen in the Fine Arts Palace of the Exposition. "The Equestrienne" is as clever and spirited a small work as he has done. Ralph Stackpole Ralph Stackpole, one of the younger sculptors, was born near Grants Pass, Oregon, in 1881.
She seemed to be on good terms with everybody, particularly with Andy's new acquaintance. "Who is your friend, Marco?" she asked, as the man passed by her. He explained, with a great many excited gestures. Then he beckoned to Andy as the equestrienne smiled pleasantly at him.
Among others whose acquaintance they formed was a certain Lieutenant Bernard, an officer of the 68th Light Infantry, whose regiment was then in Canada. He occasionally rode out with Miss Willis, who was an accomplished equestrienne, but he did not appear to be on specially intimate terms with Lady Mary.
A trick elephant was being fed by its keeper at once side of the tent. Nearby was a young man dressed as a jockey, holding the chains leading to the collars of a dozen performing dogs. Andy had a good memory. He knew from her resemblance to the posters he had seen, that the lady on the white horse was Miss Stella Starr, "the dashing equestrienne."
Alice, Oswald and Dick had had almost enough circus for just then, so we sat in the sun and dried ourselves and wrote the programme of the circus. This was it: PROGRAMME Startling leap from the lofty precipice by the performing sheep. Real water, and real precipice. The gallant rescue. O. A. and D. Bastable. Graceful bare-backed equestrienne act on the trained pig, Eliza. A. Bastable. 3.
The naked light shone on her bent head, and on her glittering rope of hair. A strange impulse suddenly moved Emile to finger a loose strand with a touch that had in it something of a caress. Gamin she had been, equestrienne, heroine, and now she was only a sorrowful Dolores. At last words came. She stood up and faced him, shaking back her hair. "Emile! Emile! I must give it up. I can't go on!"
I shall speak again of these people. They are well worth it. They turn pastime into perfect memory. They are, therefore, among the great artists. I am impelled to portray, at this time, my devotion to the little equestrienne, by the presence of a traveling circus in these lofty altitudes in which I am now living, seven thousand feet above the sea, in our great southwest.
He had the sense to let her take her place as equestrienne once more, and had announced her reappearance in flaming posters. The stablemen and helpers were all delighted to see her again, and in token of their satisfaction presented her with a hideous and unwieldy bouquet, in which all colours were arranged together so as to give the effect of a kaleidoscope.
The night carnival was at its height when Aldous re-entered the long, lighted street. From ten until eleven was the liveliest hour of the night. Even the restaurants and soup-kitchens were crowded then. He strolled slowly down the street until he came to a little crowd gathered about the bear equestrienne.
