ABOUT THE WATER CIRCUS.
The Big Tank for Barnum G. Bailey
Carnival Arrivcs-GoIdcn's Dive.

Indianapolis will have an unusual treat
when the Barnum e. Bailey show exhibits
here tomorrow. Until a few weeks ago tho
problem of transporting the water carnival.
when SET all New York talking, presented
SO many obstacles that it seemed almost out
OF the question TO present the carnival en-
TIRE In this city. The long run from place
10 place late at night, 1t seemed. would pre-
vent the moving Of the big tank in time to
nave II ready for the opening of the show
here. But Mr.. Bailey is not a man TO
stop at obstacles. So he had another canvas
tank made. Two of his advance agents ar
rived last night with the big canvas tank,
and 1T will be in place on the show grounds
In due time. The water carnival is a circus
performance and a pantomine combined.
a circular tank or pool. a trihe larger than
the circus rings, is prepared in advance.
Ii is lined with a waterproof canvas. and
when filled with water is three and one-half
feet deep in the center. Up above the water
ring f~ifty-one feet is a tiny platform, rugged
to the end of a projecting spar. From this
little stage. which is only 12x1s inches, the
famous dive is made by Louis Golden. His
platform is twenty-one feet away from the
line of the center of the pool and this dis
springing from his pedestal. 1t is a moment
or suspense TO the audience just before
boHieu ulNeS. lie posses nlmSel1 carefully,
tests the rigidity of the platform, for a
slip would mean a broken neck upon the
ground below, then gauges the distance he
has to cover in his leap. Slowly his body
sways forward, then leaps high into the
air, rising easily five or six feet in a beauti-
full arch before ii begins to descend. He
darts like a flash toward the water, and at
the instant OF striking its surface his body
Is perfectly vertical and as rigid as a bar
of steel. His clasped hands strike the water
and he's gone. A great volume of spray
arises, and almost before it has subsidized.
the daring diver is seen swimming for the
edge of the pool.
Another very clever act in the water
circus is performed by William Andree,- a
French Swimme of international reputation.
His Monte Cristo bag trick is a novelty
in this country. He is tied lin a bag, and
by means of a block and tackle is elevated
TO a considerable hight above the water.
A trap snap drops him into the pool and he
disappears into the water. Within forty
seconds he comes up. having released him
self from the bag, and made a complete
change of costume while under water. I'M
mense audiences have greeted the big shows
in the East.

The STORY OF The LIVER.

This IL one OF the most interesting articles
In Harper's Monthly Magazine for May,
written by DR.. Andrew Wilson. The wonder
Is that such an interesting article could be
written upon a subject considered by most
people dull and uninteresting. Blu the fact
that such an article IL published in Har-
per's Magazine is sufficient guarantee 10
the reader that IL is worth reading. And
why not? There can be nothing more vital
10 correct living than an intimate knowl-
edge OF the functions of the liver. and how
its actions govern the health and condition
OF the whole body. As one reads this
STORY OF the Liver one wonders that peo-
pie do not go down to the root Of the mat
ter and learn that all ailments OF the body
are TO be attributed directly 10 a torpid or
diseased condition of the liver. When the
people wake up to a knowledge or this tact.
and give attention 10 the liver, then we
