Sherman and Humans circus ex-
hibited In this city on Friday evening
Of last week to an immense crowd.
Enough money was paid to entitla the
audience TO q first-class entertainment
In some particulars they got 1t. II ID
customary for newspapers that receive
big ads, and good pay from shows Of
all kinds TO give them good send of
when they leave. We do not believe
this fy honest journalism. From the
puffs some ofths Portland papers gave
the circus we supposed It was extra,
All who attended IL here with whom
we have talked, say IL very was COM
mon. and with much reason.
There Is no question that the tricks Of
Tommy, Barney aud Jack are first
class, and all that are advertised. They
really display wonderful Intelligence

see them but outside Of that the cir
Gus with two or three exceptions was
really inferior, bearing no comparison
to their exhibition IN this city last
year. Those exceptions were, first, the
tumbling OF the Morcsco Brothers,
which was deserving Il applause, and
the walking Of Chas Morosco ON the
slack wire, feat perfofmed In skilfaI

was decidedly poor, nearly every one

saying they never saw much worse in
q circus, anl the general tumblins was
little more than IAN apology. There was
no performing OF the bar, 100 trapeze,
no leaping over thirteen horses nor
even one, no walking on n wall by a
human fly. The clowns were es poor /
as one often sees.
We make these statements with no
purpose of fault finding but because
they ars the truth, and We are sorry |
they are, for the management seem TO
be composed OF genial. gentIenanIy |
men. A more quiet, orderly set Of per.
formers were never In the Northwest,
and we never attended 4 circus freer
from obscenIty The members Of il
carry themselves with some style. and
make q good appearance outside Of the
tent. They are entitled TO credit for
these.
NOTES
The side show. which we judged 10
be under the same management,
was worth the two bits paid 10 get in.
The skill Of me woman without any
arms. Ia crochetIBg, sewing, writing,
eating, etc, with her feet, was interest
ing. The leats Of the sword swallower
were good, and his putting five swords
down his throat at one time. as well as
Gains, etc., was actually done. This
was genuine. An OK feet . inches
high and weighing 300 pOsn1s was
worth seeing. The Circassioa woman
we have no doubt was q fraud. The
question was as to bow she had made
her hair stick out as II did. Some said
Il was stale beer. Aud then there was
. woody pig.

Magic Balm man year ago. put ia an
appearance with the circus. lie Is q

The after concert Is said to have been
as bad rs such thing can be.
AS usual the circus had its needle
eye followers One OF them, a contempt
ible puppy, went under the reserved
seats and looked up to see II the seats
were full. lie couldn't do It in front

SEED CRusHERs.
Their Late Preliminary COnven-
ton Here.

After a two days session the cotton
seed crushers OF The South adjourned
yesterday, to meet in general conven-
ton at Chicago on the 18th of next
month, and the majority of the dele
gates went home by way OF the Missis.
sippi and Tennessee railway, mainly to
New Orleans, to 60 thence to their
respective localities. There are be-
tween eighty and ninety cotton seed
oil mills in the Southern and Western
States, and Q majority OF them we're
represented at the convention here.
Nearly all of those located in the
Mississippi valley had dele
gates in attendance. The dis
cussions covered a wide latitude
and were not open to the news gath>
erers, but it is understood that gener-
al harmony prevailed, and that the
majority present favored inviting
members ofthe press to be present,
and also to let the doors be thrown
open for the public to hear all that
might be said. Though this was
not done, yet it was the prevailing
sentiment. Mr.. Fred M. Nelson, Of
this city, the Secretary of the Cons
vention, says that it was merely pre-
liminary to the one to be held at Chi
cago next month, and he gives the
following synopsis of subjects
discussed before the convention: The
care of cotton seed along the river
shores and at points of shipment, also
at railway depots; the care of cotton
seed sacks and responsibility of par
ties receiving them; also the response
bility OF common carriers for damage
to seed in transit; the price to be paid
for seed, resulting in a resolution to
pay the highest figures warranted by
the returnsfor manufactur, d products,
including oil, cake and meal; division
of territory for mills to draw the seed
from, and this latter resulted in no
division being agreed upon. The fore
going embraced the questions as pro.
mulgated by Secretary Nelson. Mr..
j. W. Allison, of jackson, Tenn,
presided during the sittings here 1t
was ascertained from members of the
convention, while on the streets, that
they regard the interests of cotton
planters and seed producers as identi.
cal with their own, and they wish it
to 60 forth to the world. that comfy
and good feeling shouldRprevail be-
tween both the producer and the
manufacturer. The interests involved
sum up many millions of dollars annu-
ally, and it is constantly increasing,
therefore rules and regulations to
protect the manufacturer cannot be
inimical to the cotton seed growers.
