S.H. Barrett & Co. Monster Railroad
Circus and Menagerie gave two exhibi-
tons in this city on Tuesday afternoon
and evening, and, Notwithstanding the
heavy rain all day, the mammoth tent
was about two-thirds full at each per-
formance. This was no doubt owing to
the fine display made on the streets dur
ing the two hours the rain ceased to fall |
in the morning. The menagerie was
larger than is usually found travelling. |
The circus performance was one of the |
best ever given here, and if the circus
comes this way again on fine day the |
tent would not hold all who would attend. |
space will not permit us to go into detail !; ]
Suffice to say, all were well pleased with
the whole entertainment.

The political demonstration by the
Democrats on Thursday evening of last
week was more than success. The
boys and they were all voters, too
turned out in large numbers and formed
a most imposing procession. These men,
many of them past the meridian of life,
their torch and went through
the manual of arms in perfect order at
the command Of their leader, Mr.. New
house, who should feel flattered at his
success in this direction. At Park City
Hall, the place of rendezvous, large
audience assembled to listen to the
speeches of the distinguished gentlemen
who were present for that purpose. We
can only say that the speeches created
no little enthusiasm, and were in the
German language. The whole affair
throughout was satisfactory to all inter-
ested, and is the subject of many favor
able comments from our citizens.
