They were a sleepy lot when they tumbled, neck and crop, out of the bunk care—cowboys and Injuns | and Greasers and all. But they went at the familiar tasks with a rush; and the big wagons came rum- bling down from the flatcars, and the horses, steers }and jacks clattered down from the boxes, and har- fNeenes were on in a twinkling, and whips cracked and | clouds of dust rose, and “Giddap, thar! Whoa, doggone ye!” The Seattle boy met a pal “Beat yer!” he jeered Got here first “Aw, what of it?

He saw "em subdue bucking ponies and jacks; he saw the attack by Injuns on the stage coach and the rescue by cowboys. He thrilled to their whoops and shots. He was with them in spirit when they put Spurs to their horses and tore around the inclosure like Sam Hill and heli-bent-for-leather. Dog-gone, but it must be fine to travel with a circus! Ob, he saw it all, the whole outfit, and it didn’t cost him a red cent, and he's still got the quarter maw, gave him ; The other day Barnum's circus gave a special pere formance at Washington for Vinson, the $100,000,000 son of Ed Beale McLean.

And it’s easy to feel sorry for a pale-faced, pampered $100,000,000 boy who wouldn't in any circumstances be allowed to carry wae ter for the animals or pass bills. Vinson couldn't have enjoyed his circus, because, for one thing, he didn’t earn it, and, for another, he didn't have anybody to share it with.
