FIRST OF TIE SEASON.
Hulburt &c Hunting's ShOlc aud College
Of Trained AnfntdIs.

Charlestown will be visited by the first tent
show of the season on Wednesday of next
week, August %. The show is consolida-
ton of Robert Hunting's Galaxy of Euro
pean Gymnasts, comprising the leading
performers in that line of this and foreign
countries, and Prof Hulburt's College OF
Trained Animals, composed of the best ed
ucated horses and dogs in the world, in all
making the most amusing, instructive and
strictly moral show to be seen anywhere.
We make the following extract from the
Wellsboro Ldrocate.
"Hulburt & Huntings show exhibited
here last Tuesday to good business. 1t is
unlike any other show that we have seen,
and occupies field distinct and separate
from that common to tent companies. 1t
has specially, and it must be admitted
that it has very nearly touched perfection
in its line. The trained horses and educat-
ed dogs are unquestionably without equals
anywhere. 1t is wonderful to witness the
acts of these canine and equine performers.
The acts are not at all like the tricks usual
ly done by dogs and horses, but really seem
to prove that man is not the sole possessor
of mind and reason. 1t is worth ones while
to see exemplifed the possibilities of the
education of dumb animals. A fancier
would derive unalloyed pleasure from the
dogs. They are all registered animals and
comprise at least dozen breeds, and are
noble specimens every one. The other
features of the show keep up the standard
of general excellence The acrobats were
heartily applauded for their skilliul and
daring acts on the bars; the contortiOn and
juggling feats were fine, and the inimitable
Hunting kept the audience in health by
promoting a succession of hearty laughs.
Taken all in all the show was exceptionally
good. The man who would not consider it
worth more than the price Of admission is
hard to please, and loves money better than
healthful amusement and instructive enter
tainment If Hurlburt & Hunting come to
Wellsboro again they must enlarge their
canvas or diSappOint great many people"

4 Lost Opportunity.

There may be seen at the establishment
of Mr.. T. P. Lippitt a specimen of the
Karicofe Corn Harvester, invented and
patented by citizen of this county, who
is also the general agent now busily engag-
ed in establishing agencies for their sale all
over the country. These machines are be-
ing manufactured by Wilson 4 Brothers OF
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, who are work
ing one hundred hands night and day to
supply the demand. This work las was
remarked by two of our practical mechan-
les might just as we'll have been done in
our town as elsewhere, as there are at least
three establishments here where all the work
required could have been done, and we
know that the work was offered to each one
of them last Fall after the machine had
cut one hundred acres of corn successfully
in this and Berkeley counties. There was
at that time ample capital in our town had
any one had enterprise enough to begin the
manufacture of these machines. There was
abundant testimony to this corn haryesters
value in the endorsement of such men as
A. S. cambridge, J. H. Strider, Eugene
Baker, Moses Trussell, NJ. w. Burr and
nearly one hundred others who had seen it
work.
