CuriOSitieS.

Yesterday, on the streets, attract
ing great crowds, were a mother
and two lit girls. The girls
were named Pearl five years old,
aud Blanch, four years in December.
They would spread out a carpet and
then amuse the crowd with all sorts
Of contortions, son ersauits, etc.
Then they would pass around the
hat and nickels came in freely.
The father is Emory Wilson, q
painter, who expects to live in
Waco
In Justice to the police for per
hitting such crowds on the streets
and sidewalks, it may be said thai
the kind hearted mayor had giyer
the lady permission to show on the
streets.

had, the tickle goddess had for

mercy was shone to those whose
