The Circus.

An immense concourse of people as
sembled under Montgomery Queens
canvas yesterday afternoon and eve
ming. The performances on both oc-
casions were of the superior character
and variety, seldom, if ever, witnessed
in Los Angeles before. The riding by
little Miss Brown, fourteen years of
age is really wonderful. She performs
all the feats attempted by the best
equestrians, even to the back somer-
sault, which is turned with the horse
at full gallop, the little one invariably
alighting upon her feet with much
grace. The vaulting and sumersaulting
by corps of artists led by Fred Rey-
nolds, are very superior in their line.
Leopold and Geraldine do the trapeze
performances in a most daring man
ner, exhibiting wonderful strength
and accuracy of movement. The per-
formance throughout is new and at
tractive in character, and there Is
nothing about it to pique the most
fastidious. The menagerie Is the most
extensive ever brought to Southern
California. 1t comprisesa royal lion and
several lionesses, one with young;
a handsome zebra, one elephant, sew
eral camels, kangaroo, one elan, a
white deer, sacred COW, large hy-
ena, juagars, monkeys, a large collec-
ton of macaws and parrots, and large
number of other birds and animals.
Another performance will be given
this afternoon and one this evening
as also tomorrow afternoon and eve
ming, which will terminate the stay
of the company in our city.

An Accidental Death.

Last evening, about o'clock, Hugh
Forster, q brother of Don Juan Fors-
ter, fell dead while riding along Main

blood vessels of the heart. The de-

wears old, superintendent his brothers

from his horse dead. The Coroner

at the Protestant burial ground. a
stout, hearty man, the death OF th'
deceased come to his relatives ant
friends with terrible force.

The Theatre.

Despite the many attractions else
where, delighted audience assem-
bled at Merced Theatre last night. A
pleasing domestic drama "Duel in the
Snow" was followed by that laugha-
BILE farce, "Rough Diamond" in both
pieces Miss Florence Kent ad-
mirably presenting the leading parts,
with excellent support by her COM
pany. Tonight Miss Kent receives
a grand complimentary benefit when
that most beautiful of plays, the
"Lady of Lyons" will be on the
boards. Miss Lulu Wilson will APP
pear in songs and dances and there
will be other attractions. Miss Kent
deserves crowded house and our res
idents should see to 1t that she to-
night receive the patronage that her
ability as an actress and energy as a
manageress demands at their hands.
All present will secure full enjoy
ment.

HAMPSHIRE ITEMS.

Week before last, Prof J. W. Hensley,
Lawyer Dan McCannon, Lawyer Dent
Pennington, and Rev. Enoch Hensly,
met in the Academy, and in the pres
ence of a considerable crowd discussed
the question of "woman suffage."
Our reporter was not present, but it is
said that the young Hensley "silenced
Dents battery" this time.
A prOtracted meeting has just closed
at the Baptist Church, which resulted in
the conversion of about twelve persons.
This church, Pleasant Grove, is making
some effort either to enlarge their old
house or build new one. II is place
remarkable TOR large attendance, ana
they should have capacious house.
Rev. Mr.. Duncan, Methodist, has Deen
holding a meeting in the Academy
at night during the past week. A i've
ly interest, but no conversions. Elder
Duncan is a downright Duncan, tor he
is Jealous, and keeps them all awake
when he breaches, and if any should be
soothed TO sleep under his preaching, he
soon resorts to something mora hideous
and horrible. Believe us when we tell
you he raised a certain young man the
other night "from a dead level to Hv-
ing perpendicular" The weary lad
had stretched himself upon bench
about the middle of the house, and
during altar exercises was enjoying his
nap, when Mr.. Duncan made most
solemn approach, and grasping him by
the collar remark ed with ashake-"there
is preaching here tonight" The yodng
man aroused somewhat bewildered, and
said afterward that he thought it was
Milt Pugh, and was about to retort up
on Milt sharply, but seeing his mistake,
desisted, and all went off well, curing
him of the maps the balance of the meet
ing. Indeed it has acted "like charm"
upon all others as a preventative. AL
though the congregation had grown
weary from protracted service, yet we
have heard of no one yielding to SUM
Der since this reproof. After this occurs
renee, Mr.. Duncan was speaking of the
sinners carelessness, &c and remarked
that some OF them could even sleep
sour dly on their way to hell. Now Mr..
Duncan is a matter fact" kind of
man, and all he said and did was per-
fectiy pertinent; for the hall OF the
Academy began to resemble that of
hospital more than a church, aud he
made example of only one noble young
man, which sufficed.
Miss A. G. Hanly has resumed school
at Jones' church, and has large pas
trOnage.
Quarterly meeting was held at Pisgah
last Saturday and Sunday.
w. T. Ussery preached byrequest, to his
old pupils, and the children Of the Rock
Spring community last Sunday, at
Akin's Chapel.
