Tho CIroua Is Here.

After an absence of six months, spent in
a successful tour Of the Australian colonies,
the great Sells Brothers circus is again on
American soil, and will open to our ex-
peetant public on Wednesday next at Gen.
trail Park, Market street, the old stamping
ground. One of the most agreeable persons
TO talk with on this subject is Mr.. Charles
Stow, formerly a newspaper man, but now
general director Of this important exhibit
iioB, besides being the author Of all the
canvas literature which its many important
features render necessary. Mr.. Slows de-
seription of the tour 10 the Little Britain Of
the Pacific. while being full of facts, has
all the charm Of romance. The menagerie
attached 10 this circus has been increased
by hundreds of new and strange animals
gathered while abroad. The zoology of
Australia is fully represented, as well as
that Of India, China and Japan. There
will be found in the collection many beast
and bird that the great Phneas I. Barnum
even in his best days and with the expend-
iture of hundreds of thousands of dollars
failed to get under bis eanvases.

TORE DOWN THEIR FLAG.
Detectives Raid the New Rooms OF
Highbinder Society.

Detectives Raid the New Rooms OF a
Highbinder Society.
Detectives Cox and Gennon climbed four
flights Of Tickety stairs at 81 Waverly place
yesterday afternoon aud raided the rooms
Of the Suey Ong Highbinder Society. There
were only half dozen Mongols 10 the
rooms at the time, and they at once began
to tear plaeards and ether announcements
from the walls.
Some months ago the headquarters Of the
Suey Ong and other tongs Of murderous
blaekmailers were raided by the police and
every article Of furniture demolished. SO
sorely were the highbinders pressed that
they had no regular meeting places. A
week ago, however, the Suey Ongs secured
three rooms on the top floor Of the building
at "a Waverly place and fitted them up as
headquarters. That Is why Detectives Cox

Hall and left in the property clerks office.
1t is similar to the regular Chinese flag,
with the exception that instead Of a dragon
IL is 0rnamented with characters meaning
"Suey 0ng Gong SC"
The Suey Ongs were preparing for an
annual feast and pow-wow in the evening,
and were anything but pleased with the
raid.

Theatrical snbordination.

A correspondent says that Augustus
PitOu's decision to discontinue his stock
company is due to several reasons, not 10
one reason, as has been stated in several
papers. This one reason is that the public
has not paid enough money to the box Office,
and the other reasons are that Mr. Pitou
has found there is a dearth Of good Ameri-
can plays and that there has been a civil
war In the company itself. The members
Of stock organization should accept with
out quibbling, whatever parts their man
ager chooses to alIot to them. That is the
way it was Ia the "palmy days." and | be-
company were the best examples of this
submission TO their managers dictates. The
trouble with the members of Mr.. Pitou's
company was that they each looked upon
himself or herself as a star of greater or
lesser magnitude.

Mr. William II. Power and company
have been serving up some oId-fashioned
Irish drama at the Alcazar Theater under
the name Of THE Ivy Leaf" and will con-
tinue similar service this week with the
legendary piece called 'The Fairies Well"

holds that if maid goes on Halloween to
the fairies well that springs beside a ruined
castle near one of the lakes Of Killarney

There have been number of good stories
told about the late Pat Rooney. and Frank
Daniels. who is now playing an engagement

Daniels, about 10 years ago. was playing in
Liverpool, England. with a company called

Skirt Dancing the Latest Fad.
ITS in the air." writes Clara Belle to the
Cincinnati Enquirer. 1T may be a microbe
for all | know, for, like the measles, it's
catching. When one woman gets it she
transmits it TO her sister or her cousin; it's
an END Of he''ceHtuTy' malady. The first
symptoms are observable when two girls
who sleep together begin undressing.
"Maude, dearest, don't you think Pm
pretty we'll put-up girl?" asks one of the
other.
Indeed do, sweet, and look at me, too
aren't my ankles the dalntiesI things you
ever saw?"
Right you are. pet But how do you like

Stunning. birdie. And now watch my No.

the chandelier"
What are these girls doing? Are they
clean gone daft? By no means; they are
simply displaying their eomeliness and
agility with view to becoming skirtdanc-
ers or bHrlesque actresses. In the 0lden
time women wanted TO go on the stage, but
their ambition was to play Juliet or Lady
Macbeth. They still want to go On the
stage, but in different kind CT roles. The
Legitimate" has become '.leg-imtate."
The young girl of to-day has only one
thought above her corssge steels-it is to be-
come an eccentric something 1t may be
dancer, high kicker or comir.soug singer.
But, dear child" said | TO a young
friend of mine, "y0n surely don't mean 10
say that you are seriously thinking of ap-
pearing in public as a skirt-dancer?"
why not?" was the artless reply. "In

| can earn $50 to $50 week-possibly 500

tleman friends tell me that the variety show
is the coming fad of the day. In clubs and
in private parlOrs. as well as in places
OF public amusement, 1T Is to be the
dramatic form of the future. The
variety actress has an opportunity to
display the talent OF SiddOns, Cush-
man or a Nelson. She may sing like
Jenny Lind and dance like Fanny Elsler;
she may be as full Of double enteDdres as
Yyette GuilbeTt, or as pure as Mrs. Kendall
she may kick as high as Amelia Glover, or
content herself with the sensuous wriggle Of
Carmencita; in word the bOundless uni
verse of art is hers. She is tragedy, comedy
meOdrams. farce and opera all rolled into
one. The coming theater-gOer will be too
nervous to sit through fOur-act play. Ho
will patroniZe the variety show, where he
may pick and choose, take song and bit
of high kicking with his beer, or dash OF
tragedy and q heavy ballad with his All

his champagne and Turkish cigarettes.
