JOHN RoEINS,N's GREAT THREE RING
CIRCUS john Robinson desires the world
to know that Just ~ his mammoth show is
exhibited in the largest cities, so it will be
exhibited in the smallest villages and towns,
aud that everyone of his ten big shows, and
every member of his gigantic troupe, and
every one of his novelties, will surely &C.
company him over his entire route.
The principal interest seems to center
around the huge herd of elephants ranging
in size from the colossal Empress to the
little twin b,ay eeph ants, the especial DC
light of the children. The circus perform
ance is the best by a long ways that ever
visited Chicago. The antics and tricks OF
the twin baby elephants never fail to create
the greatest fun and amusement. The mar
velous troupe of gymnastic bicyclers, the
startling flight of the human cannon ball
through the air, the wonderful and thrilling
life leap of The winged lady of the clouds,
the terrific flight of human being from the
great Roman catapult, driven through space
at a terrible momentum, make up a constel-
lation Of startling and astonishing wonders
never before seem Chicago Tribune.
