A ColOred Baby Show Sets Up In Business

Cherubs Compete For Fame and Get 1T.

A Colored Baby Show Sets Up In Business
to Obscure the Comet Three Darkey
Cherubs Compete For Fame and Get 1t.
It isn't many cities that have enterprise
enough to get up colored baby show. In
this respect, however, as in most other
things, st. Paul has the peculiar honor OF
standing alone. So it happened that when the
novelty of colored baby show was announced
her sister cities turned saffron with envy. A
negro baby show is something that requires a
great deal of sand. It takes sand to secure the
material for the show.
In point of style the show at Armory hall
last night was big success, but from q
numerical standpoint there was nothing to
brag of. About 10 o'clock GLOBE bachelor,
and modest young man withal, climbed up
three flights of stairs at the corner of Seventh
and Jackson street. and at the top of which
was met a faultlessly attired colored gentle
man who enquired the nature of their busl.
ness.
The reporter blushed, and replied that he
would ike to see the prize babies. The "man-
agement," for such he was called, informed
the scribe that SO far only one infant had put
in an appearance, remarking that there would
soon be pig pen full of them. After walk
around the block, in the course of which a
well known down town druggist, who is in
the market, and an equally suggestive bachelor
M. D., were encountered. They were on their
way to the show, and return to the hall
showed three babies present.
To be candid, this was all the babies that
loomed up, but what was wanting IN numbers
was more than compensated for in form and
beauty.
They were as follows: Robert Edwin Lee
Hall, son of Mr.. and Mrs. George Hall, a sew
enteen pound cherub, seven weeks old, prodig.
iOusly fat, and beauty. 1t was as plump as
a dumDllng, fair complexion, and as dimpled
as Daphne.
Eta May Brown, months old, daughter of
blonde in color, with eyes as blue as the heav.
superb beauty.
The next child, Clarabelle Gill, was really
the only child approaching sable on exhibi-
tion. It is 9 months old, had large, ]ustrous
black eyes, and is perfect specimen.
The judges were Messrs. R. Ragen, M.
Rouleau, R. H. McCutcheon, C. G. Burke and
Mrs. Emma johnson.
While the judges were deciding, the man.
ager announced that during the interregnum
Mr.. Columbus Baldwin would favor the au-
dience with song. The rising young artist
sang 'Put those Little Shoes Away" in a
touching manner. Songs following by Mr..
Green and Mr.. johnson.
The committee announced that the first
prize, a baby carriage for beauty, had been
awarded to Mrs. Browns baby, and the second,
a necklace, to Mrs. Halls infant, the best
dressed.
The show wound up with music and a
dance

PERFORMING ELEPHANTS.

Their Wonderful Exhibitions of Intelli-
gence--- What They Can Do, and How
rhey Do It---ThOusands FlOcking to SEQ
Them
Tomorrow Forepangh will exhibit here
with his establishment. Or the wonder-mov-
ing scenes presented by his twenty trained ele-
plants, recent exchange remarks
"Volumes have been written on the sagacity
of the elephant, and from time immemorial
among the stories chosen to entertain the in
FAINT mind, varied and interesting anecdotes Of
these ponderous beasts. Even those of more
mature years delight in reading the exploits
of elephant hunting, and the thrilling adven-
lures of Asiatic tourists are never more graph
ically portrayed nor surrounded with greater
interest than when enlivened by hazard
Gus encounters and hair breadth
escapes from enraged specimens of
the elephantine genus. No animal when
cult to avert from the object of its fury. In
view of these facts MIR. Forepaugh, whose
sterling show exhibited here last night, is en-
tiled to unbounded credit for the enterprise
exhibited in collecting twenty of these huge
beasts, and reducing them to such subjugation
as to make possible this exhibition in series
of tricks and evolutions that surpass any
du6CuOltS WIltlcu Ut Itldtcu Vi clcpuduttuc
sagacity, and tax the credulity of those who
do not witness their performance for them
selves. This is the largest and most perfectly
trained herd of elephants ever under the con-
troll of one man, and the interest of the per-
formance is wonderfully enhanced by the ex-
treme youth Of their trainer. Mr.. Adam Fore
paugh, Jr., who, only eighteen years of age,
has this exceptional number of mountainous
beasts subject to his slightest will, and man.
ipulates them with as much coolness and ease
as though they were SO many domestic animals
and incapable of taking sudden freak of inde-
pendence that might result in horrible death,
not only to himself, but to all who came In
their path. The performances of these clum-
sy-looking masses of flesh and bones battle de-
scripton and almost challenge belief. They
dance, 60 through military evolutions, give
acr0batic exhibitions, perform on the tight
rope, and do variet, and number of unheard-
Of-tricks too numerous for partlcularization.
Perhaps The most maj velous Of all their per-
formances is the grand elaphantine panto-
mime, which was prepared expressly for them.
and IN the course OF which the sagacious
beasts give evidence of their susceptibility to
passions more than human in its vivid reality.
They portray emotional feelings of love, jeal-
ousy, hatred, fear, anger, pride, mirtb, grief,
sarcasm, contempt, and the like, in a manner
SO realistic as to almost carry conviction of
the truth of the transmigratory theories.
Their performance last night was received
with unboundel plaudits, and every man,
woman and child in the vast audience heaved
a sigh of regret as they were fraliy marched
from the ring in stately order.
