worth tho price of admission The horse,
camel and elephant pageant that opened
the show was gorgeous; the band Is hae
the bareback riding superb; the horse
flesh Of q high grade; the tumbling end
vaulting over three elephants backs ex-
cellent The Bedoain sword and gun fight
ing was unique. The only Cyrene gave
breath taking exhibition of kicking and
skirt dancing; the Jsps did the same old
tised Wild West feature did not material
ize-why advertise it The great
attraction of the night was the racing
around the outer rings at the
close, and the yells of delight
that arose must have been heard all over
the city.
The menagerie display is deeply interest
ing. A liouess with three little cubs and
two enormous hippopotami which were
paraded around the rings were novel and
most curious features.
On behalf of the public we desire to
thank the Messrs. Sells for their innova-
tons in clowns; contrary to the custom OF
centuries, the clowns had no jokes TO crack
the tent was too large to allow them to be
heard-and for for this relief too much
praise cannot be uttered. If the Messrs.
Sells would complete the obligation under
which they have placed the public, they
will keep their lions and elephants without
food for about three weeks and then turn
them loose on their peanut and lemonade
venders There was the usual exhibition
OF ''refined minstrelsy by twenty ladies
and gents, who appeared without causing
you to leave your seats, after the regular
show (which. by the way, has only just
started), and all for the small sum OF 10
cents" The great show goes again this
afternoon and evening.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN :
The Star Chamber Police InveS
tigatiOn.
Are the People Not Entitled to Know What Il
Rotten in Their Police Depart
menti

Twenty six police officers demonstrated
In petition to the city council against the
assumptions of Captain Parker and Ser
geant Glenn, and prayed for relief. They
complained OF the tyranny and overbear-
ing conduct of these two men. That
the majority of the police force should be
compelled TO seek protection from the city
council shows that the chief is incompe-
tent to maintain proper discipline; that he
is partial, unit, or worse. indeed, the pc
tltlon against Parker and Glenn is more of
an Indictment against John NJ. Young than
against the principals themselves, as any
one who reads the document can deter
mine.
In the face Of this arraignment, which
shows a decentralization in the police de-
partment which must be, and indeed is,
! fatal TO the safety Of the city and its inhabi-
tants, what is the course of the council.
Ii appoints committee TO investigate the
charges behind barred doors, as If the peo-
pie have no right to know the true inward
ness Of the case. The grievance is known,
but the excuse for it, ii any there be, is
withheld and why!
Under the old regime when dark lantern
Investigations were held, q hue ana cry
went up from the very men who now prac-
tice the same thing 1t was wrong then,
and Is wrong now. The marshal is under
cloud and If he IS honest ne should be the
first man to demand that daylight be let in
On his version.
Instead of that, what is being done!
When not engaged in Liberal stump speak
ing, wire-pulling or laying pipe for the uext
nomination, the marshal Is making war upon
Judge Laney, because fOrsooth, Judge
Lsney Is not one Of his brand. All hail TO
the police Judge for this distinction. Not a
night passes but what the life and property
OF Salt Lake people ID threatened, not a
street IS free from the brazen intrusion of
lewd women, but how can the community
expect relief from q force the head OF
which is nothing more nor less tnsn curb
stone politician without the least Qualifica-
ton for his responsible offie.
Were John M. Young in charge of a num-
Der OF men In the army and produced,
directly or Indirectly, half the rebellion
there is in the police force, he would be
contaminated and casniered within
twenty four hours. Here ne struts about
in his regslia, trying 10 run the courts
when he is incapable of running his depart
ment.
Give such q man a whole regiment Of
police officers ana pc city would not be
safer than it is to-da 1t Is the head and
not the rump that does the watching.
We would like TO know how long the
good people Of Salt Lake will bear up with
this condition of things; how long they
will stand murder, arson, robbery, hold
ups, prostitution, and all the other crimes
on the calendar, the while the chief of
police is stumping and wire pulling and
ft.uce- mendinp

ADJUSTMENTS.
SELLS Bros. Circug.

sells brOs'- tlrcu1.
Yesterday was circus day in Salt Lake,
and the city and all its numerous suburbs
abandoned business, the fields and even the
thoughts Of politics to flock to the sawdust
arena The parade was witnessed by
thousands OF opeu-mouthed youngsters and
country folk, most Of whom renamed on
the streets till time for the circus TO begin.
At night the scene that transpired under
the three acres of canvas has never been
eqaalled since the railroads began to bring
DIG circuses into the Salt Lake valley
Sells Bros. last visit was a monster of sue
cess, but last nights attendance must have
thrown IL into the shade. 1t is estimated
that the tent will seat 5000 people, but
probably nearer 1000 were jammed In. 1t
took from z 80 till near to get the crowd
seated, working as Sells lieutenants did
like majors, colonies and brigad,ers, and
ordering the people about like SO many be-
wildered sheep or cattle. After the seat
ing capacity was taken up, hundreds who
held reserved seats were standing, and the
only satisfaction they got when they an
grily demonstrated was that they should
have come earlier. Finally, however, the
circus managers bethought themselves OF
the hay stacks, and q snail army
Of men was put to work Juggling
in armsful Of hay, which they
scattered on the ground and thus
provided seating room for the holders of
the coupons. They took it al good naturally
and did no more grounding, many ladies in
light dresses settling themselves as hap
PLY on the nay. as if they had been the
best of cushioned chairs.
The show is great one beyond denial.
Its only fault is that it is too mammoth:
one almost feels like signing for the tan
bark single ring of his boyhood days, when
sl.< ~A

form between them, all three constantly
occupied by performers, is too much for q
single pair Of eyes. One almost wearies
attempting to follow it all. But riveting

The Pacific Short Line.

That the Pacific Short Line will never
be built, at least by its projectors and
present hackers, is almost an assured fact.
There are l29 miles of the road, and it is
now believed by those in the position to
know, that under the foreclosure this sum
mer arrangements will be made to extend
the line TO connection with the Burling-
ton Il Missouri River road at DunnIng,
Neb., distance Of about ninety miles.
This" says the RGilicGy Age, ''would
mean d considerable DETECTION TO the south
west from the originally proposed line, and
would make the road, if ever constructed,
anything but short line to Ogden"

Allcock's Porous plasters. AS soon as pos
