Robinson,s Circus.

The cfrcus-a world of wonder under
white canvas - has justly been styled
the national amusement of America. So
much is embraced in it and the attractions
are arranged with such eonsummate ant,
begoiten, of long experience, that every
taste, both of the young and old, is met and
pleased. The horse, dear to the American
hears, is seen at his best in his graceful
archie career; the animals, many and
various, and gathered from all countries,
afford instruction; the athletes show the
strength of the human form, the acrobats
its grace and fexibility. Handsome women
in diaphanous and not too liberal drapery
please the EYE like pictures of loveliness,
while tRe-elowns, well-stOcked with funny
sayings and ant{e> tricks, furnish the comic
element, and make everybody in the vast
audience feel better by exciting hearty
laughter. Truly, the attractions OF first
class circus like the great John Robinson
shOw-ten shows in one, as advertised
would be slightly bewildering were they not
so well placed that the spectator can take
them all in, in satisfactory succession, and
leave the vast pavilions with the contented
feeling that be has had more than his mo-
ney's worth. The great Robinson eques-
trian establishment and menagerie, after
gorgeous street parade, will be thrown open
to the public tomorrow evening at the Cen
trail Park, Market street, corner of Eighth,

Ndrigdtion of Snake Ricer.

From Mr.. II. F.Wild,o of Min
eral, who is now sojourning in
Boise, it is learned that COM
pany Of Portland people will
soon commence the construct
ion Of a steamboat for the pur-
pose of plying on Snake river
between the railroad bridge
near Huntington, Ore, and the
"Seyen Devils mining district.
The boat will be built just be-
low the bridge on the Idaho
shore, where the landing and
point Of reshipment will be To-
Gated. The distance between
the prints to be connected by
the new steamer is about
seventy five miles. Letters
received from the intending
builders Of the boat say that
the material for its construct
ion will be delivered on the
river early in February.
Mr.. Kleinschmidt, Helena
banker, who is largely interest
ed in copper mines in the
Seven Devils district, is report
ed to be ready and willing to
guarantee freight to the beat
to the amount of 100000.
This enterprise calls to mind
the fact that in the early days
of placer mining in this region
II steamboat was built at the
same point on Snake river,
which piled for two or three
seasons on the river. making
occasional trips between that
point and the ferry, now
known as Walters Ferry, be
tween Boise and Silver City.
A party of men in a small
boat have recently examined
the section of the river over
which it is proposed to run
the new beat, and have found
the river to be easily practic-
able for the purpose. No
doubt, as business increases,
the river will be navigated, as
formerly, to the point mention
ed above.-Boise Statesman.
