Robinson VIII Present to the Amusement
Loving Public "A Great Show.


Among the recollections that cling to us in
all our after lives with vividness that time
does not eiiace is the memory of our first at
tendance az a circus. All amusements offered
TO the young pale into inslgnlficAnce when
compared with the sights to be seen there.
and from the moment that the first car arrives
on the siding until the last tent Is struck and
the last beast Is boxed a thousand bright
eyes and eager hearts watch IN childish ex-
pectancy for further revelations of its won
derful mysteries.
This morning before daylight the work Of
unloading John RObinson's circus was begun
near the Lee statue, and it is safe 70 predict
that many a promising Sunday-school scholar
will be absent from his accustomed place
There will be grand parade at 10 o'clock
tomorrow, and two performances will be
given-one al o'clock in the afternoon and
the other at in the evening.
Ills said there are over five hundred persons
connected with the performances, and there
is a new feature which will doubtless attract
many. 1t is a grand scrptural spectacle, en-
titled Solomon and the Queen of Sheba
Scenery is used, the costumes and properties
are perfect fac-simies of those worn during
the reign Of Solomon and il is stated by the
press of many cities that the spectacle sur
passed the karalfy triumph Nero, or the De-
struction of Rome"
There will be- excellent racing splendid
display of animals and one of the excellent
features of the performance is the horseman-
ship feats % Miss Josie De Mott. who sur
prised the people Of England by her superb
riding.
Mr. Robinson has also made the clown fea-
ture perfect pantomime and they in them
selves are enjoyable. The show takes place
under the largest circus tent ever manufac-
tured, and sixty-four freight cars are required
to transport the property from place to place
