The record-union., 1893-09-14
At THE PAVILION.
Still the Crowds Continue to Fill the
Big Building.
The Circus Maximus Was Given in
Fine StyIe-The Musical Attrac-
tions-Master Leake's Solo.

Despite the fact that it cost every per-
son an extra 25-cent piece to gain admit
tance to the Circus Maximus last night
the coliseum was jammed again. The
Roman revival has proved itself to be
great drawing card, and deservedly so,
for q finer spectacle could scarcely be
| conceived. The Sacramento Athletic
Club, and those who have assisted it in
getting up the production have covered
themselves with glory. and the fair di-
rectors deserved praise for getting such
an enthusiastic and energetic organization
TO take hold of the big show.
Last nights entertainment was by far
the best given SO far. Everything ran
smoothly and with dispatch, the result
being that it was finished in an hour and
ten minutes.
Caesar's court presented a brilliant
scene. The court ladies' robes are perfect
dreams-triumphs Of the costumer's art.
The presence Of the Senators and their
togas lends additional attractiveness to
the spectacle. The ladies shower the
victors in the various games and combats
with flowers each evening.
The gladlatOrIal contests were given in
q most realistic manner-one in particu-
lar between net and trident man against
a myrmillOne. In this case the retiari's
trident was cut in twain by his opponent.
| but he continued TO fight desperately
with the stump of his weapon until he
was finally exhausted and then slain
| These characters were enacted by Charles
German and j Ohm Berger
The chariot race was the best seen vet,
and kept the spectators cheering from
start to finish.
The Pavilion yvaE
entire crowd of visitors both before and
after the circus, and a noticeable thing
was that hundreds were there who did
not go III to see the Roman show-proba-
bly, having seen it ON some previous
evening.
The music, as usual, was good. Master
Ed Leake rendered a charming cOrnet
solo and well deserved the applause his
performance was greeted with. The lad
Is an artist, even though he is but Is
years OF age, and gives promise some day
being famous soloist.

which was well received.

Tonight will be "Governor's Night''
at the Pavilion and at the Circus Max
linus, and no doubt there will be an i'm
| mense thrOng there. There will be spe-
cial attractions in the coliseum, including
Miss Pearl 1inckers "Delsarte la
/ Greque." During the performance Otto
Noack will render Xylophone solo.
The Sacramento County exhibit con-
tinues to attract crowds Of people, and
deservedly so: In addition to those who
have already been mentioned as having
contributed toward the display, Manager
Carroll OF the Capital Packing Company
should also be referred to. His display
is most attractive one and adds greatly
to the general beauty of the county eX-
hiblt. Paul Sims also shows some fine
wine grapes and Isaac Eldred some
choice table grapes.
This evening Anna Morrison Reed will
deliver the annual Grafton at the Pavilion.
