I guess it went better than if we had made a lot of preliminary notices. The suddenness of it took them by surprise." "But we can advertise it big now," said the ringmaster. "We don't need to specify exactly what it is. Of course those who have seen it will tell their friends who are coming and who haven't seen it. But the big majority of the audiences will be as much surprised as this one was.
Andy did some creditable twisting on the trapeze, the manager and the ringmaster conversing together, meantime. "Report to me in the morning," said the latter to Andy at last. Marco followed the manager as he left the tent. He came back with a pleased expression of face. "It's all right, lad," he reported. "You're in the ring group as a sub.
And, getting back to the show lot, he dismissed the automobile, and, taking Micky with him, sought out Jim Tracy, Mr. Moyne, and some of the other circus executives. And then the trap was set. "Well," remarked Joe, after having talked rapidly and said considerable to his friends, "what do you think of my news?" "Great!" declared the ringmaster.
So, then, the ringmaster he made a little speech, and said he hoped there wouldn't be no disturbance, and if the man would promise he wouldn't make no more trouble he would let him ride if he thought he could stay on the horse. So everybody laughed and said all right, and the man got on.
Another feature of Joe's performance was his wire-walking. Since he had rescued the lady's cat he had added this to his share of the program, and it was a thriller enjoyed by many audiences. "But it's a little tame," said Joe one day to Jim Tracy. "I want to put a little more pep into it." "How are you going to do it?" asked the ringmaster. "I think I know a way," was the answer.
Just think what you would miss were you to do so this early think what I should miss. Come up here and be sensible that's a good boy." The ringmaster paid no attention to their chatter, which was in tones too low for the audience to catch. Phil placed the little jumping board in place, upon which the riders step just as they are leaping to the back of the ring horses. Then the lad backed up.
The boys and girls brought two pins to get in. Those who brought toy animals to act in the show did not have to bring any pins to come in. "The first act in the show!" called Herbert, who was the ringmaster, "will be Mr. Dick riding on his White Rocking Horse! Ladies and Gentlemen, see Mr. Dick!" "Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!" cried the children, clapping their hands.
The next act was a bareback riding exhibition, by a pretty, graceful young woman whom the ringmaster introduced as Mademoiselle Mora. At the crack of the whip she sprang lightly to the back of the gray old ring horse and began a series of feats that made the boys sit forward in their seats.
Out of here, I say!" "The old hen has laid an egg!" repeated the clown, holding aloft the object that all might see. Teddy Tucker, for it was he, cared nothing for the crowds occupying the seats. In fact, it is doubtful that he gave any thought to them at all. "What do you mean?" demanded the ringmaster. "The ostrich. Don't you see?" "The ostrich?" "Yes, she's laid an egg."
I rather guess you did -at the circus, replied Shep. "Oh! You were the fellows who -who talked to Jones, the ringmaster." "Exactly. And you're the chap who ran away." "That's true, I did run away. Can you blame me? They half starved me and beat me, and wanted me to go up on the trapeze after I had had a spell of sickness." "We saw you on a freight train leaving Rallings." "Oh, did you?
