 The editor of the Chicago Daily Herald has been to the Sells Brothers Circus, and tbis is what he has got to say about it;
 "If there is one virtue above all others which, when found in circus manager, should be extolled to the skies, that virtue is candor. That virtue is found in Sells Brothers, who, strange as the statement may appear to those in the habit of reading circus literature, advertise merely what they have, and exhibit exactly what they advertise. Their show now on the Lake Front, at the usual spot, foot of Madison street, is & good onc-an un- usually good one-and the thousands of people who packed the tents yes tcr,lay appear to think SO"

A bold burglary was perpetrated this morning about 3 o'clock, in the jewelry store of H. Schmieding, next door to the Kingston House. The pro- prietor was out, but before leaving he had slowed away all of his valuables, about $l ,009 worth, in valise. The thieves entered by the street door, which they unlocked. Marshal GiI- mo was called immediately after the discovery of the burglary, but up to this time no clue has been gained to the perpetrators.
 Since the above WAS put in type it is learned from Deputy Sheriff Gilmo that four men left town this morning under suspicious circumstances and every indication points to them as the guilty parties. One of them is a man by the name of Scott, and old Russian called Bismarck, musician by the name of Binder; the fourth man is a stranger, Sheriff Murphy Is on their track.-Kiagstom Shalt Ledge,

In regard to that portion re- lating to the surrender of Geronimo while the text of the report is not yet accessible for publication, it is known that in respect to that matter General Miles does not explain himself to the salisfaction Of the authorities and that his granting of conditions which are now understood to be even more liberal than has heretofore been sup- posed, is a subject of embarrassment and porplexily without saying so in emphatic terms.
