A two year old bear named Black Bear awakens in spring and becomes the village rogue. He raids a pig pen and a sheep pen before a pack peddler named Pedro AlSandro persuades him to perform as a dancing bear. The peddler brutalizes him with a stick, turning the tame pet into a forced spectacle for townfolk.
A tale from Yellowstone Park recalls Archie, an 18 year old, catching a trout and cooking it in a boiling spring without fire. The party watches as the fish cooks in the steam clinging to the shore, then sinks, leaving the head. The account also follows a traveling duo Pedro and a dancing bear, detailing the bear’s tricks for soda, candy, and breakfast routines, amid harsh treatment and a crowd of admiring children.
A collection of Irish quips and visual gags. A weathered vessel nearly sinks inspires a quip about water depth. A soldier shows a bullet hole hat and jokes about a near-miss. A canal boat voyage features Pat leading a horse and a mock lament at the journey’s length.
