Excerpt
“Why, it seems the head boss of the show discharged four of the wagon drivers for drunkenness. The fellows wanted their full month’s wages and the boss wouldn’t give it to them. Then they got ugly and commenced to tamper with some of the animals. The boss called some of his other men, and all hands had a big fight right in the menagerie tent. One boy who was looking on got hit with a club, and a lady fainted, and they almost had a panic. Then the police took a hand, and one of the fellows who was discharged was arrested. The other three got away.”
