The streets in our city yesterday presented
very lively appearance inasmuch as people
had fl0cked in from the surrounding country
in such numbers that the sidewalks and
streets were literally crowded TO suffocation.
The coming Of Anderson s. Co.'s Circus and
Menagerie-a well known show IN this viciui-
iy, had been heraldcd for many miles around
apd the consequence was that everybody aud
his sweetheart was early on the ground 10 see
all that was to be seen. 1t is not our custom
to resort 10 putting OF shows, but this must
be az exception, for in our humble opinion
Anderson Il Co. deserve q handsome notice
from our hands, lack OF space, though, neces :
states our mentioning the leading features
only IN this issue. The street parade in the
morning was ono moving mass of gorgeous
briiancy from the superb band chariot TO the
concluding cage. The steam piano Was also
an object OF special interest. The collection
OF animals was very 6ne. The circus per-
formance was participated in by corps OF
arenic artists that are simply par excellence
the riding was frst-class; the gymna,tic ex-
ercists weec thrilling, and the acrobatie ieats
were iaIitiess, and the trained horses, ele-
plants. ponies and dogs were marvellous

Never before in the history of Kansas have
maIarial diseases prevailed to the extent that
they do now. From every county comes the
complaint OF ''ager" and Shakes" aud not
only in our State, but from all the western
States. Sedgwick county has been notably
exempt from bilious ailments in the past, but
the fact is not TO be disguised that the num-
Der Of pale gills and blue noses is large and
one could almost believe himself in the lager
swamps and bottoms Of Indiana OF Illinois or
Ohio. A convention Of Cincinnati doctors
express the opinion that in seasons when cpl
denies prevail, that all diseases OF like type
prevail also, and that as yellow fever is pre-
vaiing south, so will bilious diseases prevail
north. But our soil being so light and por.
Gus with no swamps, we think as far as this
section is concerned. intermittent and remit
