Forepaugh's circus will appear in this city on Wednesday of next week, and everybody is waiting for it to come. The veteran man ager has added much sensational interest this season, presenting a horse for the first time which walks a rope suspended in the air, climbs ladders and does all manner of wonderful feats; Captain A. H. Bogardus, the champion wing shot of the world, and his four famous sons, together with com plete Wild West show of cowboys, Mexican lasso experts, Indians, wild bronchos, cattle and bison. An elephant combats and van quishes an athlete and pugilist in four rounds with boxing gloves, another rides a velocipede, and the circus performance in four rings, an elevated stage and hippod- rome course is a most remarkable and satis- factory one. The menagefie has been ma terially strengthened by many valuable and rare additions. It now possesses the largest hippopotamus, the tallest giraffe by four feet and the heaviest and most majestic ele phant ever exhibited. There are twenty five elephants including a very diminutive specimen and the lordly giant, Bolivar.
