An exchange says: There is secret
in building good towns. Do you know
what it is? If you don't you can work
the problem out in the following manner:
Take two town sites; let one be beauti-
full location, with all the natural advan-
tages possible, and the other none of
these. Take five hundred old fogies and
misers-men who do not believe in giving
capitalists anything for risking their
money in their town-and put all of them
on the good site. Take two hundred
good, live, energetic, get>up-and-get fell
lows who never let an opportunity pass
to advertise themselves and their town
and put them on the poor town site; then
watch these two towns for five years and
you will readily catch on to the secret of
town building"

AMUSING AND INSTRUCTIVE.
a Wonderful Combined Institution
FIlied with Strange Features.

When the Barnum and London shows
arrive here, which will be one week from
today--Thursday, June THOSE who
may remember the circus as it existed in
their younger days will have the opporS
tunity of making comparison between
what the circus used to be and what 1t is
today. Then it was q simple, crude at
fair, with one ring; now ii is, as exempli>
lied in these shows perfect revelation.
The talking and singing clown is a thing
OF the past and in his place are scores Of
pantomimic clowns, not one of whom
will speak. but all will act, caper, laugh
comfort, distort, and do such funny
things as will make old and young laugh
until their sides ache. Wonders in nature,
astounding feats, and marvellous exhibit
tions OF trained animals will bewilder
every one; while the purity and excel
lence OF the exhibition, its instructive
character, and the perfection to which its
myriad features are brought, will render
it as useful as it will be surprising.
Children will revel in the delight they
first experience when listening
to fairy tales. The gates leading to
wonderland will be opened to them. while
the adult portion of the audience will be
none the less Captivated by the many
acts and curious attractions, and at the |
end their establishment will be as COM
plete. This year these enormous shows
are even better than ever before, and |
comprise, besides triple circus in three |
rings, q Romsn hippodrome with glorious |
races and combats, q museum of living |
wonders, an aviary, two double menager~ |
les, an elephant pavilion with herd of |
these big animals, clown elephants, /
droves of camels, etc; an elegant stage !
for special performances, the reproduce
ton of the colossus Jumbo, the big ivory
skeleton; real horse fair, containing $50
first premium horses In separate tent;
and, grandest of all the real wild Moorish
caravan, with pure Arabian horses, wild
Moorish warriors, dancing girls, slaves
attendants, tents of animal skins, war
weapons and other paraphernalia used on
their religious pilgrimages to Mecca, and
depicting real life in the desert, IN camp,
etc. The life of these strange people is
shown in series of realistic exhibitions
at once grand and picturesque. Battles
are fought, travelling caravans are at
tackled, French soldiers are brought to
the rescue, wild feats of Moorish horse
manship are shown, and altogether the
entertainment is the most instructive and
grand imaginable. Captain Paul Boyton
in his marvellous aquatic performances
in specially constructed lake of crystal
water; and lots of other features, all of
which are new and startling. The press
of the entire country has, extravagantly
upheld and endorsed this monster eXhi-
bition for the real merit it contains as an
educational and useful institution, aside
from its great performances and acts.
The big parade will take place in the
at o'clock.

Another rumor. regarding the crew of
the Inflated fishing smack Lizzie Ella, was
current at Pensacola Wednesday. II was
TO the effect that the smack had been run
down by the Steamer Cumberland, but
that the crew had been saved and taken to
Tampa, where the steamer was bound, and
from Tampa to Mobile, from which place
they were to have arrived at Pensacola re-
recently. All attempts to trace this rumor
to reliable source failed 1t is certain
that, had the men reached Tampa, Capt.
Dillon would have telegraphed, announcing
his safety and the safety of the crew, and no
telegram of such nature has passed through
the local Office. 1t is hardly possible that
the men could have escaped. The Lizzie
Ella was to all appearances lying at anchor
when the terrible catastrophe occurred.
The vessel that ran her down struck her
just abaft the rigging and cut her nearly in
two. The force that was undoubtedly be-
hind such blow, even if the latter did not
kill one or more at the moment, plainly car
RED away the only boat, and with the latter
the only chance of saving themselves pos
seSSed by the crew.
