The Marvel Of Europe in
America.

THE GREAT INTER-OCEAN, THE sue
CEssFUL COMPETITOR FOR EUROPE'S
GREATEST SENSATION.
For several years past letters in the
newspapers from different cities in
Europe have spoken of the reigning
sensation there in the person of a Won
derful woman. called Zazel. Indeed so
great became her name and fame, that
one or two people in this country as
sumed the same name and attempted
to give limitations of the thrilling per-
Torrance which made her the great
feature of European Shows. She is
the original, in fact the only human
projectile or cannon ball fired from out
q powder-loaded cannon. After most
active competition between American
managers to secure her for All attrac-
ton, John b. Doris was lucky enough
TO get her, and SO our readers can see
her on Sept. I when his show, which he
rightfully calls the Great Inter-Ocean,
Largest and Best show on Earth, will
exhibit here in Martinsburg.. Don't
forget the date--F'riday sept I.
