This is a great tune called "A Rag-Time Skedaddle", written in 1899 by George Rosey (real name: George Rosenberg), and recorded in 1901 or 1902 by George Schweinfest (piccolo), accompanied by an unidentified and very talented ragtime pianist, possibly Frank Banta, Sr. (who died in 1903 and who's son is the more famous one).

This performance was at an afternoon concert in Columbia, Missouri. The concert was hosted by the BLIND BOONE RAGTIME & EARLY JAZZ FESTIVAL, and was one of many events during the three day festival.
It was great!

I HOPE YOU CAN BE THERE NEXT TIME!

Really love this one... nothing can duplicate that old-time string band sound, save a group of talented musicians such as these. By the way the sheet music for this tune is available for free from Ted Tjaden's "Classic Ragtime Piano" website, on the page "cakewalks in the ragtime era".
