BARNUM ARRIVES TODAY.

His Tents to Be Pitched on the Exposition
Grounds-To- Morrow's Parade.
Barnum & Bailey's "Greatest Show on
Earth, with its grand menagerle, wonder
full ring performances, dazzling dances,
trained animals and Imre Kiralfy's gor-
geous spectacle of Nero" and the burning
OF Rome comes here to-day and will occupy
the Exposition grounds tomorrow and
Tuesday afternoon and evening. The show
contains many new features this year. It is
small wonder that Nero's fame lives after
1900 years ii he did things in as gorgeous
fashion as Mr.. Kiralfy's spectacle suggests.
1t is as imposing and .magnitudinous as
mere mimic represention could be.
One gets GLIMPSE Of ancient Rome from
without and within. The architecture is
capitally suggested; the city in perspective
is well represented. Then the lavish dis
plays made in parades and in the festal
dances and bacchanalian revelsl The de-
scriptive incidents of the life, reign and
character of the Roman Emperor make a
great hit.
In the circus proper there is five-horse tan
dem hurdle race which is one OF the most excit-
ing things vet seen in connection with show
of this kind. A difficult balancing act on
a high trapeze bar with gymnast on either
end of the same, is another interesting bit.
The trained animals are wonderful in everv
way, and perform more clever tricks than
ever before; and, by the way, the animals
and horses this season are said to be in ex-
ceedingly fine condition, and the horse fair
alone is worth ones time to visit. The
menagerie this year is said to be the finest
in the world.
The route of the morning parade will be:
South avenue to Allegheny avenue, to
Western avenue, to Ohio street. to Federal
street, across bridge to Liberty street, to
Smithfeld street, to Water street, to Wood
street, to Third avenue, to Market street,
to Sixth street, across bridge to Robinson

nue., to Union avenue, to Ohio street, to

tion grounds.

HARRISBURG. July 26.-The Capitol con-
ta1ns a mass of valuable material which
relates to the early history of Pennsylvania
stored away in old chests and cupboards.
There is much unwritten history connected
with this material. For instance, the Gov
eminent was most shamefully imposed upon
In its purchase OF the portrait of "John
Penn, Governor of Pennsylvania" which
hangs in the reception room. The portrait,
instead of being likeness of John Penn,
the Governor, is very faithful portrait of
John Penn the poet.
Relics of the famous family of the Penns,
by the way, figure largely among the curl
osities of the Capitol. Carelessly slowed
away in cupboard to which anv stranger
might gain easy access, are the original con-
tracts made between Charles II. and Will
lam Penn, and between William Penn and
the Indians. Although these priceless doc
uments are so poorly guarded that it would
be very easy for a dishonest individual to
walk off with them, it Is, nevertheless, true
that no newspaper up to date has ever secured
copy Of these extraordinary records.
AQUAINT OLD DEED.
On an ancient parchment, somewhat dis
figured by the remorseless hand of time, is
inscribed in painstaking, old-fashioned
characters the deed giving to. William Penn
a vast tract of land 10 America. The docu-
ment begins in this fashion:
This Indenture made the seaven and twenty
eth day of the month called July, in the year
of our Lord one thousand six hundred eighty
and one And in the three and thirtieth year Of
the reign of King Charles Second over En-
gland: Between William Penn of Worming-
hurst in the county of Sussex Esquire of the
one parte and Henry Somby of the City Of
BRISTOL, Weaver, of the other parte, etc.
At the bottom of the parchment is the
royal seal, and the strong, characteristic
signature of William Penn. Here is a

rPEc1AL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
PARKERsBURG, w. Va, July ga peculiar
and fatal disease or epidemic is prevailing
among the hogs IN this section of the country
Many fine animals have already been lost, and
the fatality is rapidly increasing and spread
ing. No clew to the cause of the disease or
epidemic was found until yesterday, when Mr..
S. S. Cook, prominent farmer and stock
raiserot Belleville Bottom, was alarmed at the
discovery that quite 3 number of his fine herd
of so thoroughbreds were affected and that all
the affected ones appeared to be choking or
strangling to death. He had the affected ones
separated from the others and the diseased
ones killed and dissected. When he opened
their throats he found a number of peculiar
nat worms about an inch long fixed in their
windpipes.
Further investigation showed that the worms
in every instance had bored or eaten 3 hole
through the necks of the animals into the
windpipe. Many hogs are affected in this To-
cality, and the disease is spreading.
