The persons interested In a show soon to exhibit here might take a profitable hint from the brilliant advertising dodge recently played by the press agent of a similar show that was traveling through California. He , strolled down the main thoroughfare of San Francisco - with one of the largest and fiercest-looking braves of the Indian part of his company, and just as they came abreast of a popular cigar store, in front of which stood a large, wooden Indian, the live red man gave forth a series of terrific and bloodcurdling blood-curdling wow wows, and sprang upon the inoffensive wooden aborigine. The press agent howled for help, the Indian rolled on the pavement, slashing madly at the cigar sign, and several hundred people gathered at a safe distance and cheered him on. When the police arrived the crowd numbered thousands, and most of them followed fol-lowed the prisoners to the station house, where the Indian told how his brain had been fired by a fancied resemblance between the wooden Iridian and a hated foe, and how as he had been partaking of fire-water somewhat some-what too freely he had forgotten himself and started in, supposedly for vengeance. The result was a $10 fine. $5 damages to the cigar man, and about $5000 worth of free advertising. |
