TAKE III THE CIRCUS
; ,v;'- By J. MeC.
'.Last night; Mr.; Old Boy took Vt.
Small Bey to the circus.. Mr.; Old Boy
wouldn't hars gone, of eourae, except
that Mr. Small Boy wanted so much to
go and hla mother couldn't take him and
so Old Boy had to do It out of the kind
ness of his heart. -'Old Boy remembered
that way .back In tha 'years he had been
like Email Boy once, and he wondered
what progress the circus had made In
all those years. . It was vastly different,
probably.
Aa far aa the exterior went. Old Boy
decided that tha years bad made no
change. ' And when they " bad . aeated
themselves uncomfortably on the bleach
ers and Old Boy could, by shutting hla
eyes. Imagine he waa watching a Port-land-'Fiisco
ball game. Old Boy decided
that ao far It waa still lust tha same.
Tha stereotyped parade of animals on
four legs and In cagea and animals on
two legs didn't spoil the Illusion. And
then the band made' an' extra flourish
and the bualnesa 'began. Across the
arena Old Boy saw a nearly - natural
house' built along 'usual scenle lines.
Presently fake flamea played about this
scenlo house snd a real fire engine gal
loped around tha hippodrome track, fol
lowed by another and a bosecart and a
ladder-truck. Old Boy gasped. - What
kind of a circus was this? he wondered.
Even Small Boy waan't ao very en thus!,
sstlo about It. He had aeen the real
thing In Portland's streets lots of times.
And so had Old Boy. It might go In a
town where the people had never aeen
a real fire engine, he thought, but it
didn't go In a town where our A Dave
Campbell -yelred throngh-tha-magapfione.
Oh I no! but the rescues) were funny. '
'But the fake Ore came to an end la
time and there waa a suitable pause and
then .there came forth from behind the
dreealng-ironrn curtains which was to
Small Boy like the door to a wonderland

riders..' to gallop about the rings. 'Old
Boy sighed and settled back in his scat
He waa glad for Small Boy's sake, you

"Aw, pop, ain't that dandy?" ;
Old Boy. hesitated a minute to allow
his mind to drift , back- through the

"Here comes tV clown," said Small
Boy. , . -"V ' . i. .-"
"So It Is eo it Is." replied Old Boy.
He didn't, care whether any one heard
him. Near by was. Jonee, with whom
ho juggled thousands down town ' In

TO PROTECT LIVES
OF HORSES
W. T. Sharlahan Has Plan for
Building Boxstalls on Sid "
J Adjoining Street.
WOULD TIE ANIMALS WITH
ROPE INSTEAD OF CHAIN
Secretary of Humane Society Sug
, gesta Also That Stablemen Be In
structed in Fire Drill Says Horses
'Are Better Than Many Men. -
"W. T. Shanahan,' corresponding secre
tary of the Oregon Humana aociety,
haa a scheme for protecting the Uvea
of horses. Mr. Shanahan auggeata that
air horses be kept In box stalls which
open onto the atreet, be tied with ropes
rather than chains, and hat the stable
men practice fire drills. Hs saya:
- "Coincident with tha disastrous fire
on Saturday morning at fourth and
Burnslde streets,' wherein mors than
le horses perished In the flames and
many others were seriously burned,
comes the thought from a humane point
of - vie w, Cheuld not -tha- owners of
stables where horses are boarded be
required te provide better meana for
their escape from the burning buildings
wherein they are confined!
"Fire escapes are required, and pro
vided (or tha aarety or the tenanta in
high buildings; then why not provide
protection for . the brute creatures so
necessary to man a welfare T The aver
age earning capacity of the horse in
service during a period of li yeara is
approximately ys.ooo. Tne lire or the
work-horse is miserable at best. ' Many
are underfed, overworked, kept In llly-i
ventilated stablea and often ' poorly
groomed. : .
Sox-atail Tenants Saved.
"And when we pause and contem
plate tha indispensable aervice rendered
to mankind by thla faithful animal, it
ia a cruel master indeed who falls to
provide safety and the beat of care for
him during tha brief period of his
existence, i I am Informed that the
horses having box stalls In the stable
destroyed by flra oh Saturday, morning
were nearly all aaved.
'. "In view of these facta wa would suggest-that
the construction of ' stables
wherein large numbers of horses are
kept be placed under the supervision of
a building inspector, and that the box
stalls be plaoed on tha Una of tha build
ing facing tha atreet or alley, with doors
opening outward from each stall, the
horss to stand with head to street, eaay
or access in esse of fire, t
i "Tha animals should be tied with
rope halters instead of chains, and in
the event or lire, which usually oriel
natea ln the Interior of the building, the
doors can hs quickly thrown open snd
one or more of the horses should be
mounted and ridden among the frantlo
animals. Horses, like othar domestic
animals, will always follow a leader,
animals Follow trader.
. "I have In mind an Instance of recent
occurrence, wherein nearly 100 horses
In a burning etabls, although turned
from their stalls In the Interior of the
building, in spite of efforts to extricate
them kept circling around, when a dar
ing rider mounted one that had been
caught, rode Into the panic-stricken
herd and directed thera' to a place of
sarety.
"Men employed in stables should be
subjected to a flra drill .and Instructed
In methods for preserving the lives of
tha valuable animals under their case.
Stables should- be remodeled, providing
quicg ano eaay exita as well aa thea
tres. I sen personally acquainted with
hundreds of hard-working horses In our
cUy, earning not only their own dally
food, but are ths main support of the
owner's family; while, on the other
hand, I note street corners and parks
thronged with Idlers with no . visible
meana of support. Therefore many per
sona are led to. the conclusion that the
longer one Uvea the mora ha admlrea
the bruts creatures, and the more hs
questions the average conduct of some
specimens of the human race.
