A Novelty to be Appreciated.

New features and specialties in a
circus performance have been as scarce
as white black birds, yet, as Brother
Jasper says, the ''Sun do more" it
may come in the nature of an agreea-
BILE surprise to our readers to learn
that the Wallace & Co.'S Great World S
Railroad Show and One Ring Circus,
whose coming to Centratia, Aug, 20,
is elsewhere announced promises an
entire new revelation in the way of
amusements In the absence of per-
sonal and occular demonstration as to
It's merits, we append the following
from an exchange:
The performance of the circus COM
pany last evening was so thoroughly
satisfactory to the thousands of people
in attendance that the success of the
season is assured. The ring exercises
are the finest ever seen in this city.
and the specialists are among the best
in the country. So say the people
who were present last night. The
Menagerie was all that has been adver-
tised- The curiosity department.,
abounded with strange sights while
the circus, with its good old fashioned
One Ring only, was hailed with de-
light by all. The principal equestr-
ians, were enthusiastically welcomed,
and their feats were absolutely flaw
less-no finching and no failures.
Among the specialties, the tight-wire,
bicycle and japanese acts found most
favor. although there were many other
features of the show that elected ap-
plause. Take it all in all, ring work
and specialties, Wallace & Co.'S show
is all that the management claim.

From the Independents: w. R.
Jarvis lost about thirty-fve tons of
hay, by fire on his marsh, ten miles
south of here, Sunday Most of it
was in stacks and cocks, and some lay
on the ground as cut. The fire is sup
posed to have caught from the ashes
that some person knocked from his
pipe while crossing the marsh, and
burned so tercely that it was impossi-
BILE to extinguish it, Several hands
were at work, trying to back fire
around the stacks, but the fire when
once started in the dry grass, would
admit of no control, and swept every
thing before it.
Great care should be exercised by
hunters and others, who have occas-
ion to cross marshes or dry woodlands,
while this drouth continues, so as to
leave no spark of fire, that by being
famed by the wind, might spring
up and cause serious damage.

in this city Monday morning. Miss
