For some reason or another manap gers of circuses and those theatres in London whose programs are pre- pared especially for the young, al- ways arrange for a. pretty liberal discharge of gunpowder in the course of their entertainments. A clown with a y on his nose asks the ring- master to get rid of the annoyance, and a. pistol is red at the fly. Ano- ther grotesque sits down to rest ` himself on a-chair, and it goes o : with a reverberating bang. Worse lvshan this, the sensational spectacle which now, plays so. large a. part. in these entertainments inevitably ends with a, perfect fusilade, in which men and horses are supposed to perish in a. good deal of unnecessary agony.
