THE GENTLEMAN CLOWN.
. t . .
IIow JTohn Lowlow Drifted into tne
Clrcu-"Sorler IiouyU but it Suits
The man who rode at the head of the
circus procession yesterday morning on
the white horse, was John Lowlow.one
of the most noted clowns in the coun
try. He is Southerner born and bred,
and has a great many personal friends
i outh of Mason and Dixon's line. The
fact that he was once a student at the
University of North Carolina, is. we be
lieve, generally kno-vvn. In the absence
of the Robinson brothers, he is boss of
tne show, and in this capacity a reporter
met him yesterday iust before the per
formance began, lie is exceedingly
quiet and gentlemanly in his manners,
but brim full of humor which occasion
ally lights up his face like a sunbeam.
Mow did you get into this business,
any how r Mr. Lowiow was asked.
Well you see there were five of us
boys in Savannah that's where I was
born and they couldn't do any thing
with us. At last the old folks conclud
ed to send us up to Chapel Hiil in the
woods, but the woods couklii t hold us.
We ran away from the University and
walked all the way to High Point where
we took the train. We weren't going
;iny where in particular, and when wo
got down into South Carolina we struck
the circus. I concluded to travel with
them, but the rest couldn't) stand it.
Estelle, the present editor of the Sav
annah Morning News, was one of the
gang. He left us at Charleston and
went no me. lie is still editor and i in
still in the show business. That was in
1856."
"Rough sort of life, isn't it?"
"May be it is, but I'm used to it. We
get plenty of sleep and work about four
hours a day. 1 got married up in .New
York a good many years ago and my
wife's people got after me to quit the
show business a"hd go into something
more respectable. Well, I did. I had
saved up between fourteen or fifteen
thousand dollars, and I put it into the
merchandise business. It took me just
a year to get away with it all. Ithought
I'd better go back to something I was
used to, and 1 have been with the show
ever since.''
"Yes," continued the clown, "I like it,
of course. Then, I couldn't do better
at anything else. I have a nice home
in Cleveland, Ohio, one of the prettiest
towns in the United States, and try to
live like a gentleman when I'm there.
We are generally on the road about
eight months in the year, and they pay
me $150 a week and all expenses.
That's enough to live on."
'Don t your local hits sometime get
you into trouble?"
'Very rarely. Once, out West, a lel-
low ran into the ring at me with along
knife. I dropped on my knees this
way (clasping his hands like a man in
prayer) and said 'you wouldn t kill a
fool, would you? The people here
would think vou were the biggest fool
of the two. He looked down at me a
minute and then said, '1 believe you are
a damn fool,' and walked away. But I
don't have much of that sort of thing."
"But the band's playing and I must
get out of these clothes. Come again."
EnglneerVMUfortune.
Peter Josephs is one of best engineers
on the Carolina Central. Bail way, and
has recently been running one of. the
freight trains. Night before last at
Laurinburg he got off of his engine and
went back to work the switches, call
ing to the fireman to back into the side
track. In tHe mean -J me he caught the
switch, and it refused to work and he
jumped over on the track to move it
before the engine came up. He tugged
at it too long, and the -engine struck
him, knocked him down on the track
and cut off his leg. His condition is
somewhat precarious.
Fire.
The fire alarm was sounded, yester
day, while the circus parade was in
progress, and a part of the crowd actu
ally rushed off after the new attraction.
The scene of the fire was a small dwell
ing house, on Myers street, the proper
ty of Mr. T. II. Gaither, which was burn
ed to the ground. It was occupied by
two negro families all of whom were
absent at the time, having gone up
street to see the procession. The effects
belonging to the family living in the
end of the house in which the fire origi
nated were destroyed. Hie tire com
panies were out, but the alarm was giv
en too late.
On the ltauip ;ge.
Just after the procession passed the
square, yesterday, a ,shrewd old gray
horse, that had lived a long time and
learned a great deal, took the bit in his
mouth and proceeded at a lively trot
down Tryon street, to the astonishment
of a small boy, weighing from fifteen
to twenty pounds, who was sitting in
buggy to'which the horse was hitched,
and had been enjoying the proud con
scientiousness of handling the reins.
As the "s. b." placed his feet against the
dashboard, which they could barely
reach, and braced himself with the.
small of his back against the edge of
the seat, the expression depicted on his
countenance manifesting the firmest
kind of a conviction that he and the
old gray were laying Maud S.'s record
in the shade. The horse stopped when
he reached the house ofhis master.

"Fun 011 llie ra.cific."
The announcement of this popular
comic opera at the Opera House Thurs
day night, appears in our columns to
day. Because of its immense success in
our sister cities, Mr. oru nas deter
mined to present it in Charlotte.and al
though the notice 01 its coming is very
brief, its reputation is already known,
and a larere house will greet it as has al
ways been the case with John 1. r ord s
companies here. 111s piays nave always
come up to his promises and are ever
worthy of patronage, and mis our peo
ple have found OMt. The very name of
this ooera is attractive to Charlotte, and
Fun on the Racine win ue iun ior our
Deoule. This comedy is replete with
absurdities and ludicrous situations,
and every where it has been presented,
judging from the praise bestowed by
theuress.it has been very much en
loved. It was selected to open tne new
Academy 01 Music witn, and me inea-
tre in Richmond, which has been re
modeled, upholstered, etc., and just
thrown open to the public, and in both
places larsre audiences greeted it. The
Richmond Dispatch says of the com
Danv in this play :
"Miss Belle Mackenzie and Miss Marie
Bockel are old Richmond favorites and
met.with a most flattering reception.
The former is as bewitching as ever,
and the latter delighted her hearers
with, various vocal efforts. Mrs. Fannie
Denham Rouse and Mr. John Riebert
and Mrs. and Mr. Fetterman were both
capital. Their burlesque of high
t raced v fairlv convulsed the audience
Mr. Frank Cushman's impersonation of
the negro Dando was inimitable, and ne
was time and again encorea m ins comic
sneeches and songs.
"Mr. Archer, as one of the principals
in the late romance, proved an object
of much interest. He was Kinoiy re
ceived and awarded a flattering encore
for his rendition of the Marseillaise,
and a sweet smile of approval from his
fair bride. Mr. Wilkinson as the Cliina-
man Kfitdhem was very good, - ana, in
far.f.. all the east did well."
'Fun on the Pacific is a laughable
comedy, free from all the objections of
a variety tvpe. 1 ne saie or seats win

Charlotte's Share of ihc TUiturn.
The announcement published yester
day morning from the committee of
arrangements of the King's Mountain
centennial, indicates very plainly that
the country around the battle ground
cannot begin to afford arrangements
for "sleepinc those who mav attend.
This, however, should not be looked
upon as a drawback. We are able to
state that trains will be run from
Weaver's, the place of debarkation,
twice a day, to Charlotte, Spartanburg
and Greenville, so that visitors can re
turn to these places whenever tliey
choose, and there need be no hurry
about it. The fare will be put down
verv low. Charlotte being the nearest
point, must necessarily get the larger
proportion 01 tne crowd, and is aoie to
offer every facility for entertaining
them. Visitors can go out in the morn
ing and return in the afternoon with
little or no trouble. As the fare to
King's Mountain on all railroads has
been put down to- one and a quarter
cents per mile. Charlotte may be ex
pected to eet a good many visitors who
mav not be able to attend tne ceieora-
tion. It is an excellent opportunity lor
combining business with pleasure.
The Circus Performance.
As was expected immense crowds at
tended both performances of the circus
vesterdav. and those who said that
when vou see one circus you see tnein
all. occupied the front rows, or the best
positions for taking it all in. it was
certainly not the greatest show on
earth, but a genuine, lively circus, witn
some leatures wincn are especially
worthy of note. Among these was the
remarkable strength and agility 01 tne
Ashton Brothers, displayed in the
'Brother Act," which we have never
1 T1. 1 A.
seen surpassed nere. isot less uoie
worthv was the riding of Mr. George
Holland, especially his teat or leaping
from the ground to the back of a run
ning horse, landing on his teet ana bal
ancing himself witli the utmost grace
and ease. JNext 111 tne order or attract
iveness was tne trapeze periormance
of Miss Violeta and Mr. Tanl Hol
land. The female riding was fair, but
scarcely above the average, neither
Miss Marks nor Miss Stickney excelling
in anv particular effort. The horizon-
tal bar performance, nowever, snoweu
unusual excellence. Ordinarily the
performing dogs constitute an uninter
esting feature of a circus performance,
but that given yesterday constituted
one of the most entertaining parts, the
clown down dog receiving more ap
plause than any of the performers.
John liOWlow still wears the cnampion
belt as the greatest of the clowns, and is
as of old the lite or tne snow.
