so, we must send out bills and a

The Ohio Patriot says: Walter !.
Manin's circus and Menagerie
pitched its tents here last Friday
and drew large crowd of people
to town. The street parade was
grand and imposing, the horses in
line being exceptionally fine speci.
mems of the equine race. Probably
no show that ever appeared in New
Lisbon has given such universal
satisfaction. The term marvellous
is the only one that can convey an
adequate idea of the trapeze and ac-
robatic feats. The performance as
neat and clean as any ever seen
here and the advertised programme
was completely carried out. This
feature accounts for its extreme
popularity wherever it is exhibited.
The sideshow and the concert were
first class in every particular. In
short, there is splendid array of
talent with this company, and each
and all possess drawing qualities.
1t is the best tie. Now on the road.
This show will exhibit at Point
Pleasant, May 10.
