tion of Lu2erne county residents called
on the governor to urge him to veto the
Quay county bill. 1t was a remarka-
bly, strong delegation, embracing the
CoNes, the Leisenrings and others
prominent in the business and CONNER
cial circles of the county. They urged
the governor to veto the bill on the
ground that great burden of taxation
would be placed on the people. who could
not stand it, Another argument was that
the coal may be exhausted In the course
of the next twenty years and then the
county would have no resources what
ever. The governor asked a great
many questions and ic was evident that
the case as set forth by the delegation
had some weight with him. 1t was in
timated this afternoon that the gov
ernor will veto the bill, Another bill
that 1t is very likely the gov will
veto is the religious garb bill and a
veto message is even now being pre-
pared.

Ringing Bros Worlds Greatest
Shows, which exhibits in this city
wednesday Nov. 9Th, have had
remarkable tour this year. The
season began with a phenomenal
engagement in Chicago, during
which As consecutive performances
were given to audiences aggregating
nearly million people. The show
was revelation to all who wit
messed tne performances, and the
universal verdict was that nothing
70 compare with it had ever been
seen in that city. The conservative
Tribune declared it was the most
satisfactory and complete circus
ever seen IN Chicago. and every
other Chicago newspaper Endorsed
tina verdict. In St. Louis II per.
fornfances were given to audiences
that crowded the immense hippo.
drome pavilion afternoon and night,
and the. Globe Democrat Of that
city voiced the general sentiment
when it declared that mo such sy-
olu,ion of the circus had ever ba.
fore been seen in ST. Louis" In.
dianapolis, Detroit and other large
cities followed in rapid succession,
and then came an extensive tour OF
New York and New England, du.
ring which every important city in
that section of the country was
played TO the largest audiences
ever attracted by circus.
Twelve consecutive performances
were given in Boston, and the au-
diences were 50 large as to excite
wonder even in that notable amuse-
ment loving city. The success of
the show was pronounced. No cir
Gus that ever exhibited there ever
received such an ovation from the
public, or such unstinted praise
from the newspapers. The Boston
Herald commended it editorially
The Kosciusko star. (Kosciusko, Miss.) 18??-1898, 1895-10-25

as the greatest Of all American
amusement institutions. The Globe
declared that it was "the best cir
Gus by all odds that ever visited
Boston, and the Journal called it
the best show in existence. " In
every other section of the country
visited by Ringing Bros Great
Circus this year, the3verdict has
been the same, and no such tri-
umph has ever been known in the
history Of amusements anywhere.
1t is evident that such a success as
this must be founded on merit.
None but really great exhibition
could 80 thoroughly commend itself
to the public. The people Of this
city will have an opportunity to
judge for themselves to what an,ax,
tent these enoOmiums have been
deserved, Tor the performances
here will be given in every respect
the same as during the memorable

reason TO believe that the verdict
of this city will BE- . simple repsti.
