"TBE CIRCUS YESTERDAY. About
seven thousand people attended the
afternoon and evening exhibitions OF
Howes London circus and Sang
er's menagerie in this city yesterday,
and fifteen thousand had the satisfaction
of viewing their outside demonstrations
or street parade, in which was exhibit
ed property TO the amount of s4OO. OOO
THE above aggregation is the rep
resentative circus and menagerie on the
American continent to-day; and 1t If
pleasing 10 note that the many improve
ments, notifications, e,c., in the circu:
business are acknowledgements by
this.

performing elephants, representing 9

at one time; while one elephant turned

rang a bell and the remainder perform.

performance of these animals Is crtain'

possibly exceeds the representations as
seen on the company's posters. A pyr'

this was seen yesterday.

He stated that the entire establishment
Was brought to this country in 1871
rom Europe. Since then many add
tons have been made. The company
numbers nearly two hundred men, 25C
horses, and the daily cost OF the con-
Germ is about $500. A performing
animal is worth three times that Of al
unbroken one.
"a striking feature in this modern
circus is that not a vulgar word OF
action is ever heard or seen.
They have nine hyenas and six royal
Bengal tigers, and in their dens q per
former enters at each exhibition. This
is the only circus that presents these
specialties."

Louis was in swimmiog. aud charged
this Goliah Of prisoner with tying his
cloths in knots, and then plugging him

LIGHTING BACK BlvER BRIDGE
The Belmont il Wheeling Bridge Com
pany have had the question OF placing
lights inside of Back river bridge before
them for some time. The question is a
more perplexing one than appears at
the first glance. The bridge ls wood-
en- structure, and if lighted with coal
oil, would be in danger OF catching fire,
should lamp be broken by some
drunken or rowdy person going
through at night. Were the
gas pipes laid on the leland
so that supply O. gas could be
got 20 the bridge the lights would be
placed there without delay, As it ls,
if coal oil lamps are used twill entail
on :he bridge company the %ecessity OF
employ a Waterman at this bridge, and
it's a question whether the game will
rav for tie candle. The bridge COM
pany will do all they an,stney say, to
accommodate the public, ard it may be-
come a necessity to put up the coal oil
lamp even at the additional expense Of
some one to take care Of them.
