THE GREAT MORAL.
The Throng Which Attended Forepangh's
Great Show Yesterday Afternoon and

Great Show Yesterday Afternoon and
Evening.
Forepaugh's great show has been here and
gone. At an early hour expectancy was ON
tiptoe, and all along the streets through which
| the procession was to pass crowds gathered,
blockading the streets and filing all the vacant
windows attainable. About II o'clock the
parade began. The gaily caparisoned horses
cantered through lthe streets. exhibiting the
gilded cars containing the wild animals TO the
gaze of the assembled multitudes.
Although the first performance had been
more than an hour and a, half
previously a line of people commenced to file
ACROSS the bridge, and by tie time the grand
cavalcade entered the ring there we're fully
5000 people seated on the benches that had
been prepared for them, while quite large
number of others, who disapproved of the sim
| ful sports of the ring, promenaded through the
| menagerie inspecting the wild animals that
lined the canvass. The menagerie is really the
best that ever visited the Northwestern coun-
| try. The animals are all rare and splendid
specimens of their species. They are clean and
we'll kept, not at all NANCY like the majority
of menagerie animals. The rhinoceros
was splendid specimen-probably the
| largest ever brought to this country
| and the hippopotamnB, although disappoint-
/
! very interesting study. The sea lion. and other
rare animals besides some choice samples of
| the feathered tribe, also attracted their full
| share of attention.
| The performance in the ring all that it
was advertised to be. The great Grimaldi, the
prince of clowns kept everybody in good ma
ture. The daring rider, Frank Melville, has,
! perhaps no superior in the world, and yester-
day he was at his best. Mile. Caroline ROLAND
and Miss Louise Roshell both performed feats
of great daring, while a host of gymnasts and
athletes, all of them the pick of the profession,
added to the entertainment of the audience.
and under excellent control. The performances
of the trained elephants were interesting, espe-
cially to the little folks. In fact there was
not stupid performance from the first blast
of the trumpet announcing the appearance of
| the cavalcade to the close of the performance.
| In the evening the tent, large as it was, could
scare contain the multitude that thronged to
| "see the elephant Everything passed of sat
isfactorily, and at the close of the performance
the great Forepaugh folded his tent like an
| Arab, and silently stole away to st. Cloud,
where he exhibits tonight.
| We are compelled, by sense of Justice to
bear testimony to the exceptional good order
maintained around the tents. There was not a

dies could attend the show unaccompanied and
| feel safe from insult; pocket books could be
displayed with impunlty. The police found
no occasion for interference either day or
evening. with any employe of the concern, and
all camp followers We're rigidly excluded. To
drive of the swell mob from travelling circus
is no easy matter. We are glad to see that
Adam Forepaugh has succeeded.

They Checked Their Trunks.

Forepaughs circus had no sooner reached the city
yesterday morning than the elephants manifested a
desire to disembark. Their keeper was at loss to
account for their uneasness, and the mystery was
not explained until they had reached the of
Third and Jackson streets. They obstnately halted
at that point before the Minneapolis and st. Louis
the enterprising agent, Geo. Hazard, had checked
their trunks over his line. Then they appeared do
cie and perfectly happy. They had evidently heard
of this popular route and determined to travel that
way if it took all summer.
