Circuses, Menagerie, Moorish Caravan
and Spectacular Pilgrimage to Nee

plan Elevated Stages, Tropical Aqua
rum, Aviary, Royal Japanese Troupe,

splendid Free Street Parade. Had not
Adam Forepaugh made his final exit

sumably to manage "a galaxy of stars"
elsewhere, he would be forced to con
cede that Sells Brothers now have es-
sentially the Greatest Show on Earth,
and the only legitimate one of its
kind left A menagerie which includes
among many rare wild beasts the only
pair of full grown giant Hippopotami,
worth 100000, is something to boast
of. Other notable exclusive features
are most singular Hairless Horse, a
whole flock of stately Ostriches, and
the tiniest pair of cattle ever known
veritable mites from elfdom. The
program ofHippodrome races is upon
truly imperial scale, and introduces
the greatest drivers, riders and ath-
letes Of both sexes, including an as
tonishing troupe of Berber and Be-
douin gymnasts. The newly devised
spectacle of the Pilgrimage to Mecca
will introduce many rich, striking and
romantic novelties. Excursions on all
railroads.
Best of all these alluring features is
the reduction ofadmission prices from

A WISE CHANGE.

The subject of governmental appro-
priations, its uses and abuses, is a
most difficult and complex one, and
has commanded the attention Of polit-
ical reformers and financial econo-
mists throughout the past half a CEN
tury. But it is of recent date that the
subject has attained such colossal pro-
portions as to make it Of universal in
terest and paramount interest over all
other economic questions now con-
fronting Congress and challenging
the attention Of the people at large.
Viewing the subject from a similar
standpoint, the View York World has
this to say:
"The system Of permanent or con
tinuing appropriations began 101
years ago. Since that time it has
grown into great abuse. There are
certain government affairs for which
money, in ever.varying amounts, must
always be available. Provisions for
these can be made only by permanent,
continuing appropriations. But a
great variety of other matters have,
from time to time, been added to the
list. The billion dollar Congress in
creased 1t largely in order to prevent
any reduction Of taxes by the Demo-
Gratis. The result has been to greatly
embarrass revenue calculations, to in
troduce uncertainty and extravaganza
at many points, and to abridge the
power of Congress TO exercise a due
discretion in regulating the annual ex-
penditurcs. Mr. Sayers, tho new
chairman of the appropriations COM
mittee, proposes q radical reform. lie
will prepare a bill removing from the
permanent list every appropriation
which does not manifestly belong
there, and he calculates the amount OF
such at about $sO,OOO,0OO year. lie
estimates that under the reformed
system Congress can effect a clear saw
ing of $3O,OO0OOO a year on these
items. The reform is badly needed

FOUR TERRITORIES.
Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Ok
lahoma to be Admitted to
Statehood.

According to latest advices from
Washington concerning the action of
Congress on the admission of new
states, it is claimed to be highly probG-
BILE that tine committee on territories
will report bill favoring the admis-
sion of Utah to statehood within a
few days. Mr.. Joseph, a member Of
that committee, said such a bin would
be reported, and added thai before
the close of the present session bills
for the admission of Arizona, New
Mexico and Oklahoma would be re-
ported fayorably from the committee.
He also expressed great confidence
that all four of the bills would become
laws. Referring to New Mexico,
from which territory he has been a
delegate to Congress for the last ten
years, Mr.. Joseph said "There is not
a state or territory in the United
States that has so many orso rich and
valuable mineral resources as New
Mexico, or that can successfully COM
pete with her in the quality of her
fruits or grains. We have silver, iron
copper and coal in inexhaustible guam
titles, while the copper ore contains
enough gold to pay for tbs mining
and transportation of the whole, and
the gold quartz also contains good
of silver as well. Then, in
addition to an unlimited supply of
and anthracite coal, we
have whole mountains of natural coke,
something that is to be found no
where else in the country. AT the
Worlds Fair we have recently beaten
even California, not only ii quantity,
but in the quality of our fruit, while
we carried off the first premium
against the world at the same fair on
our wheat and oats"

AN IMPORTANT TERM.

The present term of Garland Cir
cult court, now in session at Hot
Springs Ark, is one of the most inn
portant held there for years, with the
largest docket which has ever con-
fronted the presiding judge in that
circuit. In addition to the regular
civil docket are several sensational
criminal cases to be disposed of, IN
cluding the Sullivan-Lowry killing,
the attempted assassination of last
week with which ex-Mayor Loughran
stands accused, and theIdefalcations in
the past city administration, with
which ex-Mayor Loughran, ex-Clerk
Shannahan and ex-Treasurer Rapley
stand accused. Judge Duties charge
to the grand jury was unusually Wig"
orous. He said that the reputation of
Hot Srpings was going abroad that
crime in Garland county went unpun-
ished, and especially so, where promi-
nent persons figured. That there was
a manifest tendency on the part of
some citizens to uphold some men in
trouble on the score of friendship.
This he deplored, and charged the
grand jury to allow no personal feel
ings to actuate them IN their investiga-
tions, bat to endeavor to carry out the
law.

While the exercises at the state
building were in progress, the crowd
which had gathered to hear the speak
ers became unmanageable, Those in
the rear surged forward, pushing
those in front against the speakers

Many women screamed, and three
who were standing close to the plat
form tainted. A panic was threatened.
Then 1t was that Mr.. Harrison showed
his courage and GOODNESS. He was
speaking at the time, but, raising his
voice so that all in the assemblage
could hear him, called on the crowd
to move back. Then hurrying to the
edge of the platform, he reached over
and caught falnting woman, Gov.
Matthews came to his aid and the wo-
man was carried inside the building
where she soon revived. Meanwhile,
mounting a chair, the ex-President
shouted to the restless throng that it
must be still if it would prevent Sc
rious accidents. Quiet was restored
at last and the ex-President resumed
his address.
