JARvir 88] Che Story of an ‘Abandoned Cour. INCE upon a time, so long ago that Tammany Hall was in control of New York City and the subway wasn’t ever started, there came together the High-Kickymagoogles of Europe, and they decided to form a glee club, which was to be sniped throughout the one-night stands as the Concert of the Powers. There were several kinds of music in the happy family, mest of the members, however, playing string instruments; but the real warm member of the outfit was a young German of the name of Willie Hohenzollern, who could play everything from the leading bloodhound to a cloud of war, and double in brass. Little by little he began to get nearer the job of leader of thd sacngerfest, and finally proposed an American trip. This was agreed to by the other members of the bund, especially by an old fellow whose friends looked in the directory for him under the name Bull, John; he played the bass drum with one hand, the triangle with another and dented a pair of cymbals between hia knees. He made a lot of noise, but he only got a small salary. So William hired him as his press agent, and between them they WGked a route and started out to get all the money on this side of the salty inkwell. Johnny Bull laid out a very nice route. He arra: it for the company to start in the South, around Venezuela and those water tanks, and beat their way North. They played a matinee-at La Guayra. The rest of the route was called off and the company sent home. They never thought to telegraph ahead for rooms ig New York and other long-run towns, which was quite a saviig. For they never could have got into New York if they had tried. Why? ‘Well, tts hard enough for a born-and-bred New Yorker, with | a “Van” at the beginning of all his names, to get back to his CORNELIUSVANDERMILT Treasurer JAMES. ROBERT H.
