WHAT THE CIRCUS COST—Under the above caption the last Wellsboro, Agitator recounts several rascally transactions by followers of the Circus which visited that place hot week. Here are some of them: What we supposed might happen did hap pen. Mr. Thomas Clark, a v ry respectable farmer of Deltuar township, came to town and a traveling cirrus hanger-on who reliev ed him of $ 1.0(50. The transfer of the money was e(rooted by a very simple confidence game. It secins that a stranger accosted Mr. Clark on Main street, informing hint that, ite and his father were engaged in buying cattle ex tensively. and that lie wished to find some farmer who was posted in the cattle business, with whom he could make his headquarters. Mr. Clark proved to be just his mat), for he had catile to sell. The stranger t hen wanted to know if the First National Bank was a sound institution in which it would be safe for his father to deposit his finds to be used in the cattle business. Mr. C'latk assured him that the Bank was :l || right. While Mr. Clark was talking with the interesting stran ger another man came, up and roughlv accos ted the cattle buyer, claiming thai lie (stran ger No. 2) could show more money than the cattle buyer and liis friend, Mr. Clark, both together. One word led to another, and fin ibv the second stranger ofibred to bet S2OO that the cattle-buyer couldn't show SI,OOO. The cattle-buyer then took Mr. Clark one side and told him confidently that the stran ger had l>ea en him out of $2(8) a few days before, and that here was a chanei to get even with him. Mr. '.'lark thought ho could soon raise SI,OOO, and it was arranged that the cat tie-buyer should make the bet with the stranger; that Mr. Clark should raise tin? nionev to show, and that when the wager was won the two should share the $2,0 equally between tlieni. Mr. Clark went to C. C. M*h r-to borrow the SI,OOO, and that gentleman lent it to him, joining liitn in making a hank note for the sunt. Mr. Clark obtained the money, put with it SOO dollars that lie had in his pocket and went with his new friend to the circus grounds to win the S2OO wager. The stran ger was soon found, and the money was shown to him. The stranger wanted to take it to count; hut Mr. Clark was too sharp to allow this, lie proposed to keep the moiiev in his own hand and let the stranger count otic end of the bills. The stranger proceed ed to do this quite slowly and carefully, and when he had got about half way through he suddenly twitched the, bundle of hills from Mr. lark's hand and ran off. Mr. Clark was ■considerably excited, us a matter or course; but his friend assured him Hint the other man was only playing him a silly trick, and that be would soon be back with tho money. This quieted him somewhat; but soon Li's friend also disappeared, and Mr. Clark began to ful ly realize that his tuouey was lost. During the afternoon Mr. Clark went to a barber and bad his whiskers shaved off and otherwise disguised himself, hoping that he might find the men who had robbed him. He didn't find them, however, and the next day he followed the circus to Addison, taking I. M. Bodi lie, Esq., with him. But the search .provedunavailing, and it is now evident that Mr. Clark will never see his SI,OOO again. Wednesday night after the circus a Middle bury man, who had a little too much whis' ky aboard and a pair of new boots on his feet, was walking up Charleston street, when lie met three men. One of the three said, "llow d'ye do. uncle?" "iiovv d'ye do!" said the Middleburv man. The three strangers stop ped and looked at the man, the moon being very bright. One of tlie three said, "You have got, a new pair of boots, havn't you ?" "Yes," said the Middleburv man. "And tliev hurt vou. don't they!" "Yes," the man admitted. * "Well, sit down here and we will fix them so they won't hurt you," said tlie sympathetic strangers. So the old gentleman sat down on the bench in front of Rlberolle's tannery, and the strangers pulled his hoots off and walked awav with tlieni. They didn't hurt his feet after that. A colored man from Stokesdale came to town on circus-day with $lO in his pocket. He invested $8 in a new coat and the rest of his money took him to Hie circus and bought, him some liquid refreshments. Wednesday night he went into the Riberolle Hoitse and began to dance to the music of a violin that,- otic of the showman was playing. Warming up wit h the exercise, lie sat down and took off his new coat and gave it to a stranger to hol-l. When he grew tired of dancing he turned to get his coat, and the stranger and coat had disappeared. I One of the workmen in the cigar factory in ! this borough went down to the Riberolle i House to see the circus off. While crossing the str et from the hotel to the depot, abou' ■twoo'clock in the morning, lie was knocked j down and robbed of his watch and pocket' hook. The unfortunate man whose name we ; have not learned, was badly cut about the | face. There were several other rows of less , importance; but it would bo tedious to detail, them. Crystal Lodge, No 57, Knights of Honor of this place, have reduced their initiation fee from SIO.OO to $5.00.

It gives its members an in surance of $2,000. which has cost on an aver age, since the foundation of the order, $ll.OO per year and pays a sick benefit of $3 per week in case of sickness or disability This Order has actually paid to Widows and Or phans since 1873, the sum of $1,440,000.
