Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-05-13
ADJUSTMENTS.
washburn 6 Ariington,s Circus.

The Washburn & Arlington circus and wild west show on the old ball grounds tomorrow afternoon and evening prom ises to be one of much merit. The Bridgeport Post says of it: The show opened with grand entree in which the whole company took part, Wild West, MoorIsh caravan and all. The programme included some excellent trapeze performances and daring leaps through the air. There was also a very fine contortion act and some tirst-class horizontal bar work, dancing barrel act and dog circus. There was also one of the best slack wire performances ever seen here. The show was all and really more than could reasonably be expected for the small price of admission.
 Lilly Clay's Gaiety Co.
 Lilly Clay's Gaiety company will be at the opera house this evening. This is burlesque company of more than usual merit, for while it is called a ''beauty show," it also has many excel lent specialties and some funny come dians.
 ''MugG's Lanting."
 Bishops company of comedians will play "Muggs Landing" and "Myrtle Ferns" at the opera house the last three nights of this week at popular prices. WORLD OF SPORTS.
