RINGING BROS. CIRCUS.
The Greatest Show on Esrth Will be in
Davenport Mayl

Davenport Mayi.
Ringing Bros Worlds Greatest
shows will begin the season of 1895
with 3-weeks' engagement at Tat
tersall's, Chicago. This will mark a
new departure in the career of this,
the most aggressive circus in the
world. for it is conceded fact that
the biggest circus in the United
States is the biggest in the world.
The reputation acquired by this cir
Gus had already preceded it to the
western metropolis. and the Chicago
public will accord it hattering well
come This engagement begins
April G. and closes on the 18th. The
show will then be transported in 81
cars of four sections to Davenport
and give two performances May /.
Ringing Brothers circus is very
well and favorably known in Daven-
port. The Democrat has assurance
that it is not only a larger show. but
better in all respects than ever be-
fore. A notable new departure has
been the engagement of Liberati's
magnificent band of 60 pieces, many
members of which organization are
soloists. Among the leading features
in the arena are the world-renowned
Eddy family of acrobats, the Da
Comas Louis. Marie and Fancion,
who give remarkable act in mid
air. the best of the kind ever seen in
the United States; the Iaudauer
troupe of nine flexible models, whose
groupings, pyramids and representa-
ton of classic statuary on an extern
sive scale were the wonder of Berlin
last year. Among the bareback
riders are Mike Rooney. Orrin Hollis,
Charles w. Fish, Cecile Lowande,
Edward Shipp. Daniel Leon. William
Devan, Mile. Elena, Julia Lowande
and Marian Leslie. ANY one of these
riders would be sufficient to attract
attention.
There are other features of great
merit which must be seen, and they
will be seen by delighted audience
in Davenport May l.

Reduction of Telephone Rates.

Beginning with April l, the Nilsson
ri and Kansas telephone Co. will re-
duce the rates for the use of tele-
phones as follows: For residence use
the price is reduced from $50 to $50
per year. For Office or business house
from $50 to $50 per year, in both cases
where the instruments are located
within radius of one mile from the
central station. Where two machines
are taken together, that is one at the
office and one at the residence, a re-
ductiOn Of 80 cents per month will be
made on the residence telephone. By
this wholesale reduction in prices es-
pecially in the business part of the
city, it is thought the telephone SER
vice in this city can be greatly in
creased and as every new phone put
in adds to the convenience of every
other patron this action of The

would act upon the petition and send the
petitioner to JeSsup'S, 1t is said, that this
treatment was entirely successful and that
since then the man has been as sober as the
Judge himself. This success has encouraged
Judge Stakes friends to believe that he could
make ''big hit in operating ''cure. :"
The incident recalls another cure of a
drunkard which took place in Western Mary
land years ago. The Frederick County Court
committed notorious topper to a reformatory
in Baltimore The sheriff of the county
brought his prisoner down, but before reach
ing the institution the sheriff and his prisoner
were both drunk. the sheriff being the drunken
of the two. In few days the prisoner re-
turned to Frederick but it was long time
before anything was heard of the sheriff FL
nally he returned, and then it became known
that the prisoner had taken his papers, passed
himself off for the sheriff aud had taken the
real sheriff to the asylum, where he left him.
The joke was considered so good that the inc
briate was allowed to remain at his home. and
he was never known 10 be drunk again. The
cure was complete.
