The Oldest, Largest, Richest Exhibition
in the World.
The legend borne in the head line of this
for look where they will now they will see
abe words on the handsomest array of cir
Gus pictures they have ever seen.
The legend is a truthful one, much moro
30 than the average CIRCUS story-it tells
terssly and plainly the story Of the shows.
The first Adam F~orepaugh show was organ
founder in January 1880, its way was one of
wonderful progression. y Year by year it
grew steadily, in wealth, grandeur, magni-
tude, and better than all-reputation. 1t
outstripped all other shows, and was far
and away their leader when its founder
passed away. Then it changed hands and
was purchased by it's sole owner now. Mr..
James E. Cooper, who outbid an Eng
lish syndicate, SO as to keep Americas
oldest and best show in America. MIR.
Cooper then added to the already overw-
helming exhibition, enough to make three
ordinary shows, thus organizing, as they
now appear-the Adam Forepaugh shows.
Consequently they are the oldest-twenty
eight consecutive Years. They represent
$4,000, 900. with an average daily expense of
$500. They have fifty cars each sixty
feet in length, four trains. 200 men and
horses-consequently are the richest. They
cover more circus ground with their four
teen galleries of waterproof tents than a
half dozen ordinary shows, therefore they
are tho largest, and the legend is verified
in every particular. When they will ex-
hibit at Helena on August 81, they will
show more foreign features alone than
some shows have features all told, and are
the only shows that can rightfully write the
legend.

NO OPINION RENDERED..
Arguments Still Go On in the APP
peals Before the Supreme
Court.
Mr.. Meyer, OF New York, Speaks
in Behalf OF the Root
People.
Mr.. HOdgson, of Denver, Wants Several
Thousand Dollars From Judge
- Joseph Davis.

The supreme court room was not crowded
yesterday when tho judges signified their
Willingness to hear further arguments in
the Davis appeal cases. 1t it had been an
nounced that Col. Ingersoll would be there
tho room would have been filled to overflow
ing. The colonel was there with his dauRh-
ter Maud. He did not take part in the argu-
ment. Mr.. Meyer, of New York, who rep
resents tho Root people, addressed the court
at some length on the propositions involved
in the rulings made by Judge Mediation in
the lower court. Congressman Dixon. with
his co-counsel, Judge Kirkpatrick and John
i. Forbis were present and will probably be
heard to-day in reply. Col. lnRersoli may
also nave something to say. Henry
A. Root had seat neal
his lawyers during the arguments
He expected tina the court would hand
down an opinion in the change OF venue
case yesterday. The opinion. however,
was not forthcoming, nor did the court an
nounce when it would make known its de-
cision. Under the new rules adopted U
short time ago Monday is designated at
opinion day, but the court had no decls-
ions to file. I.
The court adjourned at 4:30, until II
this morning. After the judges left th'
bench they and the lawyers were sur
rounded by a number of ladies who hat
remained in the room during the time Mr.
| Meyer was making his remarks. Mr.. hoo
was one of the merriest in the party. M
one would imagine from his demeanor tina
he was one of the most interested partle
to the celebrated case. When tn
party broke up he %sauntere
up and down the corrido
idly swinging his cane and looking as ire
fro care as a school boy. Gel. lngersol
was followed out of the room by nearly q
the women who hung about the famou
speaker to catch his bright sayings. NJ
Root and his lawyers had a long CONSULT
ton in an adjoining court after the 81
premecourt room was turned over to the JaL
itors. They went to work at once rearrane
ing the Judges bench and other furnltur'

posing TO relieve the many by abolishing

Of goods and thus enabling them to OBJ

to repeal restrictions aud collect enough
money only from the taxpayers TO

to the duty of maintaining losing bus

Republican managers in Delaware, that
they will fail to do justice to the people
