THE GREAT UNDIVIDED
Show CoMING!
THE
Forepangh's the Leading show.

Judging from the tone of the press
generally, throughout the State, we do
not hesitate, to endorse the Great
Worlds Forepaugh Show as the largest
and the very best travelling on the road.
The press everywhere along its route
speak of it as the only show that exhi-
bits to it's patrons everything that it
promises upon its large posters. This
being a commendable feature. Those
who adopt this course should be liber-
ally patronized.
This Great Show will exhibit at this
city at Thursday Sept. 5th.
Below we copy an article from the
Milwaukee Sentinel of July Goth, which
will speak for itself:
'sForepaugh's circus and menagerie
entertainment as given on the Popular
street grounds, yesterday, was an ex-
ception to the generality of travelling
shows. The entire programme was
carried out exactly as represented, and
in a thoroughly artistic manner. The
acrobatic feats excelled even the an
nouncement in many respects. The
riding was fine, and the performance, as
q whole, was unsurpassed in this city.
The pyramid of elephants was a sllpris-
ing example of what training will do
with the quadrupeds. The collection
of animals and curiosities was by no
means a minor attraction, and attract
ed large crowds Of visitors during the
afternoon and evening. The cage of
lions is by far the largest and finest Of
any that has appeared here. A white
deer, a number of seals, full grown
hlppopotamus, the only one in this
country, a rhinoceros and very fine
specimen of a white bear. were special
objects ofinterest, while the usual Gag.
es kept the children On the qasi vive.

SO much that at the end of almost every

Some of the young ladies were too
proud to dance after an accordion, and

young ladies sewing day and night in
order to get their new dresses ready.
All wanted to be admired. C.P

Not many days ago a woman by the
name of Mrs. Phillips was spending the
afternoon at friends house on Univer.
sty street. While there a gentleman
called whom Mrs. Phillips recognized as
her husband, whom she had not seen for
some time. 1t appears that Mr.. and Mrs.
Phillips had had some words and parted.
The husband wanted the wife to come
back aud live with him. He promised
that all would 60 smoothly. This the
wife refused to do. Phillips then wanted
to borrow some money of the lady to get
back home.
He said he was living in Urbana. Mrs.
Phillips refused to loan him any money,
and he left. A few days after this meet
ing Mrs. Phillips heard there was anoth.

sTATEMnNT FROM wWR NO, VOUR,

%.
STATEMENT FROM WIFE NO. FOUR,
Who ia an innocent looking country girl,
hardly over twenty years OF age. Mrs'
Phillips stated to the reporter that she
became acquainted with Ed. J. Phillips
in March, 1876, while she was working
on a farm near where she was living,
about seven miles from Delaware. The
girls maiden name was Mary Laughry,
After some acquaintance they were mar
ried, and rented a farm in the neighbor'
hood, where Phillips had been engaged
in agricultural pursuits. About five weeks
AGO thew moved to Columbus. Phillips
had a good team, The horses belonged
to Mrs. Phillips After moving to the
city he engaged in hauling coal, cite.
Last Thursday Phillips left home, say
ing that he would be back at noon. From
that time to this Mrs. Phillips No. A has
not seen her much.maaried husband.
WIFE NO, 8 COMES IN.
At this point Mrs. Phillips No, 8 came
in. She stated to the Dispatch reporter
that she met Edward Phillips in Coving'
ton, Ohio, in May of 1875. He was at
that time engaged in buying up black
walnut logs. After a two months court
ship, and upon the representation OF his
having brown stone front in Baltimore
and considerable real estate in Columbus
the Covington lady married him, They
lived together about eighteen months,
when Phillips suddenly left. Shortly al
ter marrying the Covington lady they
moved to Columbus. He was employed
on one of the railroads as brakeman, tell
ing his wife. however, that he was con
duCtOr.
Wife No. 5, after moving to Columbus,
opened correspondence with friend in
Baltimore, Marrying, about the brown
stone front. Investigation proved that
Phillips did not possess any property III
that CITY, but had a wife and several
children there. This led to further in
vestigation, and it was found that anoth-
er wife and several children had been
deserted by this scamp at Little York,
Pennsylvania.
Seven children is the total fruit of the
two marriages in the East. After leav'
ing this wife, No. broached her hus
band upon the subject, and this is the
supposed reason of his hasty departure
After some consultation this afternoon
the two wives went to the Mayors office
and swore out warrant charging Phil
ips with bigamy.
Phillips is a man of medium height,
weighs about one hundred and seventy
pounds, and has rather dard hair, two
teeth out in front and had black side
wbiskers when he left Thursday

A MORNING RECREATION.
Why Dlsdainful Higgins Jumped Over the PasSaiC
Falls.

Why DIsdainful Higgins Jumped Over the Passaic
Falls.
There is narrow little foot-bridge
over the PassaiC at Patterson, N. D., and
the distance from the rocks on either
side of the chasm to the basin below is
eighty feet Some dozen years ago Sam
Patch, who worked in Patterson cotton
mill, and was crossed in love, leaped this
distance in safety, and since that time at
intervals some imitator of that distin'
guished person comes up to the cliff and
makes the same leap. For some time,
until the authorities interfered, when
picnic parties assembled at the Cottage
on-the-C Cliff, collections were taken up in
the crowd and the jump was made in
front of a crowd of spectators. But OF
late no one has attempted it,
Last Sunday, however, at 6 o'clock in
the morning, Just as Mr.. Jacob Haeberie,
the proprietor of the Cottage, was "clean.
ing up, man rushed up in haste and
exclaimed:
"Here come out to the bridge Pm
going to jump of, and | want some wit
nesses."
Before Mr.. Haeberle had time to de-
eide upon action, the man dashed out to
the bridge, threw off all clothing but his
trousers and made dive.
Mr.. Haeberle and his men fastened
out with ropes, prepared to pull him up
if he had not been killed in the leaps
found him calmly sitting on rock and
looking up at them. He swan around
the basin and landed in the Valley OF
Rocks.
A World reporter met him coming
down Main street yesterday afternoon
He was a poorly dressed, rough looking
chap, with thin face, yellowish com.

his name was Frank Higgins. He came

touching incident on one of our streets
yesterday. A kind hearted lady was 60.

her name called. Turning she saw
slender girl, dressed in mourning, ad'
yancing toward her. AS the child came
nearer, the lady recognized in her the
daughter of neighbor who had died the
day before, near the city. The child
threw her arms about the lady, and, Sob

"You arn't afraid Of me, are you?"
"No, my DEAR" was the soothing reply.
Everybody else is." said the poor

AN INCIDENT OF INDIAN DARING


An instance of what an Apache Indian
will do in the way of cool daring, when
the prize is worth the risk, once occurred
in ranch in Arizona. The owner ofthe
ranch was American. To guard against
the ApaChes he had built block house,
and, adjoining it courtyard and a cor
raj, surrounded by an adobe wall eight
feet high and two feet thick. In the cor
raj the herd were nightly secured. He
had contract to guard and feed 400 head
of beef cattle belonging to the United
States fort, some thirty miles away. More
than one attempt had been made by the
Apaches to capture the herd, while feed
ing two or three miles from the block
house. But the vigilsnt herdsmen had
run the cattle on gailop into the corral
before the Indians could STAMPEDE"
them.
One night there came fearful storm.
A solitary Apache, unarmed, with moth
ing but q blanket to protect him from the
COOl Ihluy ClluO6u ONOl LuO COlIhi Ndli
CrouChing in the corner, waited for day.
Early in the morning, the storm having
passed away, eight herdsmen, all armed,
waited at the corra's gate for the herd
to be turned out. The gate was opened.
They poured out. Suddenly up sprang
the Apache; vaultingon the nearest horse
he Cluched his name with one hand,
while with the other he waved his red
blanket and yelled like demon. In an
instant every hoof made rush and the
stampede began. The horses, frghten.
ed, darted into the midst of the flying
cattle. As in frenzy they went thro'
the gateway, the Apache Clasped his
arms around the horses neck, and throw
ing mis- body on one side of the madden.
ed animal, disappeared from view. A
thousand men ranged in column could
not stop that rush of the Crazed herd
down the valley. The headsmen fred
a volley which wounded and killed some
the cattle. Two bands of Apaches, dart.
ing out from opposite sides of the valley,
closed up from behind the herd. Four
hundred head of cattle were thus cap
tured and run off by the cunning of
one Apsche.-BeaUer, Utah,) Square Dea-

AN interesting English "booklet," en-.
titled "Hints to Penitents," recommends
female ritualsts to carry about books and
pencils, 30 as to be able to jot down their
sins. Penitents are adjured to talk as
little about confession as possible. Says
the book: without confession being
held in absolute seCreey, no one need
know if any one has been to confession
or not2" Appointments for confession
should always be kept, and punCtuslly.
Married women are those who should
most seek hel p against temptations. since
Of late years to tempt married women
seems to have become recognized way
employing their time and talents on the
part of many men, and hence the author
cannot doubt that much of the rage
against confession is the result Of anger
on the part of'some from whom their
intended victims we're saved by seeking
the help of a priest" Penitents are not
to smoke, must do without sugar butter
and confectionery, and with less Of strong
drinks; they must neither go to balls nor
the theatre and if they have been very
very naughty girls, they must kneel and
touch their foreheads to the earth, or lie
face downwards on the floor, with the
