In this case there would be a serious delay in getting another, though one spare glass side was always carried. "And I don't want anything to happen when I'm going to try to make a record," Joe thought. He had said nothing to Jim Tracy about the attempt he was going to make, preferring not to have the public expect too much through an announcement by the ring-master.
The Lascalla Brothers won't kick, will they?" "I don't care if they do. You can do your principal stunts with them, and we'll shove the tank act back on the programme so as to give you a chance to make the change. I suppose, though, if you keep too much out of the Lascalla act they will be kicking." "They may want another partner," suggested Joe. "That's right," agreed the ring-master.
At length the final bound was taken, the last rose-wreathed hoop was carried away, Mignon kissed her hand to the audience and disappeared at full gallop, the curtain fell, and the ring-master announced that Part First was ended, and that there would be an intermission of fifteen minutes. By this time Alice was in a state of tumultuous admiration which knew no bounds.
"Lizzie cost me money, and I have to buy fish for her every day. Besides, the extra tank fittings cost considerable." "All right, Joe. I'm not making any kick," said the ring-master. "You're certainly worth a lot to us, and we can't afford to lose you. I wouldn't say that to every performer, or they'd get such a swelled head that there'd be no doing anything with them.
The ring-master was only a few feet away, and they could never be certain as to who was to be trusted. Vardri stood looking after her as she walked away with her head well up and her shoulders thrown back as usual. The two had become good friends with the comradeship induced by the similarity in their misfortunes.
They usually broke up under the strain of rivalry; everybody wanted to be the clown or ring-master; or else the boy they got the barn of behaved badly, and went into the house crying, and all the fellows had to run.
The boys tried to make them out by the pictures and names on the bills: which was Rivers, the bareback-rider, and which was O'Dale, the champion tumbler; which was the India-rubber man, which the ring-master, which the clown.
This was Reddy's opportunity to act the part of ring-master, and he seized his long whip, standing in the centre of the ring, in what he believed to be the proper attitude. "Run around with him till I tell you to let go," said Toby, as he tied the reins together to form a bridle, and then stood on the pony's back as Mr. Castle had taught him to do.
"Yes, you vicious beast, you, how do you like being shut up where you can't butt and send people flying into mud-puddles and chew up their wigs, etc.?" asked the ring-master who had joined the animal keeper. "Oh, it is you, is it?
"All right," agreed Joe. "But first come in and watch my act. Then you can see Tracy, too." And so it was arranged. Babson was disappointed in not securing work from the ring-master, who said, though, that there might be an opening later. But the former juggler enjoyed Joe's act, and said so.
