THE CIRCUS AND msNaGgRIE.

w. W. Coles mammoth circus and me-
nagerie exhibits this afternoon at o'clock,
and this evening at o'clock The menagerie
is open at and 7. There is but one charge
of admission to both shows. The grounds
are at Agricultural Park. No ground of suf-
heient unoccupied area could be secured
nearer than that. Agricultural Park, how
ever, is in the center of the city now, and
can be reached by the mass of the people
without difficulty. 1t should be remembered
that the circus performance goes off very
rapidly with Cole; there are no long
waits. It is therefore advisable tor
spectators to be seated by s P. NJ, and to
kave finished the menagerie before that time.
What Coles show consists of has already
been told in detail in these columns. 1t is an
attractive, novel and admirably managed en-
tertainment, and possesses some new and
superior features, such as the electric light.
the aerial bicycle. the wonderful trained
stations, the see-saw ponies, the champion
leapers, Long and Gardner the Queen of the
Air, the leaping horse, etc. AT 9 A. N. the

This pageant is well worth seeing. By the
way, Conklin, the animal tanner. came out
second best in fight at Red Bluff with the
mandrill or man monkey. It escaped. Conk
lin pursued it on horseback and captured it
after a weary chase. 1t then fastened its
teeth in Conklin's leg and bit him badly. He
shook it off, when it attacked the horse, and
Cenkln was thrown and his shoulder dislo-
Gated. The mandrill was finally secured.
He is powerful animal, very cunning and
apparently harmless, but really savage. His
face is sight to see ard remember. CoEkiin
is so far recovered that he enters the lions
den as usual at each performance, though he
takes extra risk by reason of his arm being
disabled.
Coles show exhibits here tomorrow also.
The giants, it should be mentioned, are rot
in side show, but in the menagerie tent.
Cole has the reputation of performing all he
promises on his bills and as there represented.
This is warm recommendation. 1t is safe
to predict full house, both this afternoon
