THE HOANOKE NfiWS, THURSDAY, MACRH 31, 1892 IIIS LAST THICK. Why Ted and Ilia Mother thQ Circus. Loft Everything hnd seemed to come to Ted by instinct until he was tauptht the great "rinff trick." He had been born la. the circus, and long before he could walk was used to riding round and round the ring on the "learned pony," swinging his bare legs defiantly and crowing wit'a glee every time ho passed the starting post. lie climbed ladders and poles, holding on by his chubby little hands, as soon as ho could toddle alone, and crept into risky places where, as the wholo troupe used to say, watching him with joy and pride, he was obliged to "hang on by his eye lids." When ho was five years old ho used to perform regularly with- old Benny, the famous "bareback rider," in the wild Indian" act All the glitter, color, stir, lifo of tho circus was tho joy.df 'tho youngster's existence. lie was so used to tho eight of expert . riders and acrobats going through their parts ho had no thdught of any possl' ble danger attending their exploits, and all that others could do he felt he could do and longed to da Ills father had been tho wonderful rider, Llewellen, killed, unluckily, by a kick from his favorito horse's hoof just as he carelessly stopped to feel the fet lock. That was when Ted was but two years old, and Llowollon had been o much beloved that tho company adopted tho boy, as it were, and took pride in his cleverness and promise, for there could bo no doubt that nature had given him the true eye, the steady head, tho indomitablo nerve and tho quick sense of the laws of balance, which are needed by a man whose pro fession it is to dangle 't wlxt heaven and earth. His mother was a farmer's daughter, who had made a romantio match by running away with tho handsome Llewellen. She had re mained in tho company after her hus band's early death us a sort of "ward robe woman." It was she who refur bished the old costumes, braiding them with tinsel, and sewing on fresh epangles; she rcgilcled and rcstarred golden crowns, and added fresh skirts to tho airy exubcrunco of tho circus queens. She was called Mrs. Llewel len, and she and her boy lived in a ttmall compartment of tho great prop erty van, which, when tho show moved from town to town, was drawn by six white horses. Few experiences pleased Ted better than this sort of royal progress, which, in spite of its grand eur, was extremely convenient, since his mother could cook their meals or go on with her sewing while they were in motion, and Ted could eat his bread and butter while ho nodded and waved to the boys gathered at every corner to welcome tho splendid pro cession. Ted had learned to read from the great, flaring hand-bills: "Greatest Show in tho Universe," "Tho Un cqualod and Matchless Troupo," etc., 'and his heart had thrilled with a sud den conviction of his own preeminenco aid Benny about tho farm which was to him Huch a wonderful fairy tale. Pity, now, your mother couldn't iro home and tako you to see her folks," said Benny. Go homo and take nic?" said Ted. "Why, could she?" "Why not?" said Benny. This new and startling idea dawning on Ted's mind took his breath away. "Mother," ho cried, running to her, "Why don't you take me down to a grandfather and grandmother and the flowers and tho apples?" , "Ah, why not?" burst out tho home sick woman, with a bitter cry. "Bo cause' I gave that all up when 1 ran away with your father. Because they wouldn't speak to me; no, not if I went down on my knees to them." "Why wouldn't they speak to you?" said Ted, aghast 'Because I belong to a circus," she replied. Ted comprehended tho pain behind his mother's words, although he did not understand the words themselves. IIo was, indeed, really amazed that any body should not bo proud to know tho distinguished people he was used to. But he realized now that tho reason that his mother sighed sometimes was that she felt shut out from the old para dise, and he bcgaiT to sigh too. Per haps he was tired; perhaps he had, in his young energy, gone a littlo beyond his childish strength, but ho began to feel fretted by the noise of tho circus and a curious homesickness grow in him for the whisper of tho forest, tho early morning rush of the birds, and sight of animals not trained and kept in cages, but playing about the fields. He longed to climb the hill and meet the wind ready to buffet him when hd reached the top, and to dabble his feet in tho cool stream where his mother's brothers used to swim on summor afternoons. Tho season was hot, and on nights when the animals were restless, when the lions roared and lashed the bars with their tails and the tigers, snarling, paced their cages, and tho hyenas yelled, a:id the elephants trumpeted, and the horses, frightened, snorted and stamped in their stalls, Ted could not sleep. There was no air to nrcatho and tho many scents made him long for the fields of clover and the garden with its bed of mignonette. "Mother," ho burst out, "why don't they like the circus?" "Who?" said his mother, startled. She sat late on her sewing as usual; but sho had supposed the boy was fast asleep. "Why, grand father and grandmother and the rest of them." "Some people don't liko a circus, Ted," bho said, gently. "It's just a fooling." "But it's tho greatest show on earth." "I know it's a great thing in its way," said Mrs. Llewellen, "but you see. Ted, my family are quiet people and their way is different I supposo it is partly tho tights and the spangles and tho crowns, tho gaudy makc-bc-lievo, wliich mado father feel that noth ing is modest asd honest and real about anybody who belongs to a circus. But if father knew old Bonny, if ho knew him as you and I do, ho would say ho was a good man. And if ho knew how mi ikoi nuji, ... dissipated or lazy." when ho spelled out "Master Ldward Llewellen, tho Romarkablo Infant I Rider aud Acrobat" But, after all, ! every body had to work, to go over bis nridu was in the fact of his belong- 1 every part again and again, ho would ing to tho circus, sintf not in nimseii. For all tho mcmlcr. of tho troupo wore so interesting, so superior. There was old Benny not that he was old, but so called to distinguish him from young Benny, tho lion tamer. Actual ly, there was nothing that old Benny could not do; it was ho who performed the famous country-buinpkin trick, at which Ted was never tired of gazing; in tho first place mounting tho horse on the wrong side and holding 0:1 by the mane as if he were going to fall off; then, after eominittiug every pos sible blunder, suddenly showing his real powers and going through a series of dazzling transformations until ho emerged tho inimitable Benny, the king of the circus. Then thero was tho clown, a great friend of Ted's; a quiet melancholy fellow who played tho banjo, and the lady riders, chief of whom wero Mrs. Bill and Miss Fanny, rival quoens of the circus. All were so accomplished, so splendid ia their at tire (at lcaxt on occasions) and so kind and tender to Ted it was little wonder if ho thought it tho finest life in tho world. At times when his mother sighed over her work it disturbed him to think that she was not thoroughly happy and contented, but no doubt, he Baid to himself, she was thinking about his father. Still, much as Ted delighted in the excitements of his life, the climbing, vaulting, balancing, and above all the riding when he leaned forward "drink ing in tho wind of his own speed," he was happiest on Sundays, when it seemed to him in the sudden hush as if the very heart of the world had ttopped beat'mir. Then in bad weather ho and his mother could shut themselves up In J their own littlo nest or if It were fine wero freo t wander outsido tho town into tho llolda. It-was only at such times that his mother really talked, but aicno vvivU lcr toy ..o i.uu.a i..-0 out stories about the old fa:-m where sho hod spent her happy, freo girlhood. Ted heard about the old house with its ' pent-roof and gables; the well by its side, with its long sweep, which moved with a mournful, musical creak when tho bucket was lowered lie wa used to lions and tigers, and there was sat sf act ion in the descriptions of tho soft-eyed oxen and cows all the tender, patient creatures of tho farm, besides the tierce turkey gobblers, hcus and fluffy downy chickens. Close by thaVfarra "ran a littlo river, where the geese and ducks paddled.aod on tho other side was the wood, whero there wero always rustles and murmurs, whero nuts pattored dowu in the au tumn, and squirrels whisked their tails and chattered in dofianca of the in truders who poached on their winter, scores. Tho garden and the orchard, too, were something to henjvabout Ted know verv flower which grew in the borders, and his mouth watered at tho account of tho apples, whlto and red, which ripened on the hillside. It U a great deal to know as much about to world aa Ted did, so he used to tell It was just at this time that Ted was learning the "ring trick," and certain ly thero was plenty of hard work about tiat It was, as wahavo said, the first thing that Ted did not tako to by mturai Instinct as a duck to water. 2evcr before had ho shrunk back from what he was bidden to do, giving way to a fit of trembling. As old Benny said, tho now trick was no harder than tho trapeze, and Ted liked of allthi;igs to go flying from ropo to rope to tho toptiiost ring, loving tho idea that tho hearts of the spectators sank into their boots at the convicslon .that ho was in danger. Now he suffered nameless ter rors; he felt clumsy, he had lost faith in himself. The truth was, up to the present he had gone on doing every thing that came in his way without a thought of what might have happened if he failed. Now he was like a som nambulist who awakens to find himself in a position of danger. It was as il he had to learn his tricks all over again, gaining again piece by piece by hard trial and proof Instead of heretofore swiftly and unerringly by instinct Old Bonny was patient and tender with the little fellow. "All you have to do is to catch hold of the ring and turn round on it" said he. "You know all the while there is a cushion underneath you and that if you were to foil you would not be hurt" "I shan't fall," said Ted, "but I don't like it" "You have not got used to it, and It's there the fun comes in." said Benny. "You never hod a stumble yet, not even a balls; you're like a bird." Ted hung his head and confessed to himself that he no longer felt like a bird Ilo was so weary. There was a gray haze over all this narrow little world of his, end V!i?!i t!?.y it w-H'H closer and closer. IIo felt dull, inert, as if he longed to sleep; lit least to sit down aimlessly and dream wulo-awako about the hill and tha river, anJ tho cooL quiet nights In the old place. "1 myself have haled to do things that I grew mighty prov.d of when I got at the kmck of them." said Benny. 'Come cow, try Again, Ted" Ted braced himself up and went through the. rehear.-;,!, but when it was over he burst out crying and sat down all in a trem'ole. "It's a safe sign to be a little afraid,' said Mrs. Bill. "It isn't tho tricks one is afraid of that one trips in, but those one fecU too siro of." They allflattered and encouraged him, and-Ted felt ashamed of his faint heartedness. A regular salary was promised him by the manager as soon as he made a success of the ring trick, and this was wiiat bo and his mother had been looking forward to ever since be was ton years old. It was odd how he disliked the ring trick, when it was simply a matter oi swinging himself op to the top of a high, tall framework on rings whicli hung on horizontal bars. The sup ports below wero twelve feet apart, but met with another transom beotn and ring on the apex. Tho way was to catch tho lower ring, swing round on it then with the Impetus gained to leap tho gap, seize tho opposite ring a littlo higher up, and so on from right and left and left and right to tho top ring and down again. It was a pretty feat and, perhaps, no hn-.lcr than any other of tho ilyin? tricks, but it needed a clear head, and tho trouble was that Ted had got into a dreamy mood. Ho was so homesick nowadays for tho farm and for tho different life, lie liked better to brood over the idea of the boes humming over the flower beds and the doves and martens calling for the cows thantogivo his whole heart and mind to tho actual things ho saw and touched However, practicO makes perfect, and by the time the new season opened in Brighttown Ted had mastered tho ring trick. Thoro was a famous pro gramme, and Ted had six different parts; in tho Indian net the buffalo hunt, tho chariot raco and so on finally to tho wonderful ring trick now ex hibited for the first time. The excite ment was good for Ted. Tho dull. weary feelings ho had suffered from of late vanished, his blood warmed to his wish, he liked tho mad gallop, he felt the joy of his own youth and strength, and was ready to tako wings and float in air. Tho tent was packed with ad miring spectators, and all the per formers wero in high spirits. The ring master and clown cracked fresh jokes, at' w nic li even tho membersof tho com pany could laugh. The horses went I like the wind, the performing dogs and elephants and bears all seemed singu larly intelligent and altogether it was one of the great days of the greatest show in the universe, and tho "ring trick" was to be tho grand climax. "All right!" said old Benny to Ted as the littlo fellow ran out of the dressing-tent in scarlet tights and cap "All right on deck." said Ted " Nimblcdy, nlmbledy, up 1 go, Tho sky above and the earth below." He stood for a momc.t measuring the supports and frames with a know ing glance, then with a bound caught the lowest ring, spun round, and light as a squirrel leaped to the opposite one and thus zigzagging mounted the up per ring. Here, just to rest and steady himself, he swung round twice, then reversed before ho should begin the descent. Ho liked it up there. A cool breath of air fresh ened him. The middle flap of the tent was open for the sake of ventilation and light, and as ho swung he caught a glimpse of the sky, dotted with tender, fleecy little clouds, like sheep in a pasture, as his mother had once said. His thoughts wandered to the farm for a minute, and he suddenly remembered what he had to do; yes, ho had to reverse, IIo quite forgot that he had already reversed What was this? Where was the ring? How still it wast How cooll Who was it gave a sharp cry? What was that roar? Not of wild beasts, bnt of men and women. Oh! that crash tho end of the world must have come. "I'm not hurt" said Ted, "really, I'm not!" Then he fainted away, and was car ried out in old Benny's arms. Word was passed round that the boy was not hurt, and the show went on to its close, although all tho performers were flur ried and everything went badly. Ted had broken no bones, strange to say; ho had fallen on the cushion; yet somehow ho was hurt and badly hurt Nobody quite knew why they were afraid it was his back. Days came and went and ho lay on his littlo bed, hold ing his mothor's hand "I couldn't got tip to-day," ho would mutter la alarm when anybody came near him; "but I'm getting rested, and perhaps by to-morrow" He was so used to playing his part that he was ashamed thus to lie and cat the bread of idleness. But he and old Benny used to plan the wonderful feats he would accomplish as soon as he got well. Yet it was soon under stood that he would never regain his old powers. "Yoa see," the doctor said, "he ia shattered His age is in his favor, and if he could have a good home in the country" "He shall have a home in the coun try," said old Benny, and he did not lose an hour. He set off to Mrs. Llewellen's old home, he saw her fa ther and mother and pleaded her and Ted's case with them, but he did not need to plead long. Ted got his first crlimpse of the house and the river and the road within a week. The sight of it brought the color to his cheek and tho light to his eye. "Why. mother," he cried, raising himself up "H paid It paid to have the fall. Perhaps we couldn't have come home If I hadn't been laid up." Ellen Olney Kirk, ia St Louis Re public.
