ONE-RING VS.. THREE-RING.
rslveIing Men Discuss Shows in
General and RingiinG7s iH Par
ticuIlf,

ticuiar.
A party Of travelling men were sitting
in the lobby of a st. Paul hotel, and
discussing circuses in general and
Ringing Brothers Worlds Greatest
Shows in particular. For my part,
said a New York man. Il prefer the
old-time one-ring circus-the kind of
a circus a fellow can sit down quietly
and look at and enjoy. The modern
big circus gives me strabismus."
well, what's the matter with going
over to Saltwater tonight and seeing
one of your genuine, old-fashioned one
ring circuses," remarked a Chicago
man.
What is it-a twenty-five-cent
show?" Eyes, and very good one at
that
"Pshaw! it can't amount to much at
a quarter The Chicago man laugh
the head" he exclaimed. mo circus
management can afford to give a great
show for a. quarter, for the simple rea-
son that in twenty-five-cent show
there is not sufficient capacity. In put
ting together an expensive show, the
first thing for the careful circus man.
ager to consider is, How can / get
back my money on this expenditure"
There is only one way, and that is to
draw the people and have room enough
to seat them when they come. To
do that it is necessary to have a very
large tent. Suppose you were sitting
at one end of a big hippodrome pavil-
ion-one as long and wide as the ire
mendous tent Ringing Brothers will
erect here for their engagement next
TueSday-do you think you would en-
joy the show if there was only one
ring, and that one in the center, two
hundred and fifty feet away from you?
Not much. That one ring would be
all right for the people in the reserved
seats, but the people down at your
end and those at the other extreme
end of the tent have to be considered.
And so there is a ring for them-three
rings, in fact-one for the middle and
one at each end.
Ringing Brothers, continued the
Chicago man, ''have, however, intro
duced a clever system in their perform
ance, and one which I think you will
appreciate, with your peculiar ideas
about the one-ring circus. By skill
full arrangement Of the programme
they always have the same kind of
an act presented in the ring stimuli
taneousiy. AS each of these acts are
of about equal merit, there is no need
of a mans eyes roaming all around
the canvas. for by looking at the per-
formance in any one ring, he prac-
tically sees it all. Whenever a partic-
ularly strong feature like the Eddy
family of acrobats, the Landauer
troupe or those clever aerial people,
the Dacomas, is put on, they are Civ
attention of the public can be con-
centrated on them.
''Take my advice" said the Chicago
man, turning to the New York lover
Ringing Brothers circus and you will
never want to see little circus
again. It's the best circus in the
country, and big as 1t is. and numerous
as the acts are. TIL guarantee it not
to give you strasbismus."

st. Paul officials View the Kettle
River Sandstone in Its Native
Element.
Messfs German, Quinby, Warren
and Fairchilds, members of the board
OF public works, City Engineer Rund-
lett, Assistant City Engineer Wilson,
Bridge Engineer Munster and Water
Commissioner Stevens returned early
last evening from Sandstone, where
they had spent the day inspecting the
Kettle River sandstone quarries The
St Paul officials were the guests of the
Minnesota Sandstone company A pri-
waite car was furnished for the party,
which included, besides the ST. Paul
officials named, Chief Engineer Hill
yard, of the Northern Pacific railroad,
the city engineer CT Minneapolis and
other officials of that city.
The visitors saw many sights at the
quarries. They were especially inter-
ested in watching the stone saw which
tears its way through the rocks, and
turns out blocks of ali dimensions
suitable for all purposes. The Kettle
River sandstone is largely used for
bridge substructures, but its chief rep
utation rests upon its peculiar adapta-
bility for building purposes. Its pop
ularity has become SO widespread that
it is being shipped in large quantities
to the Eastern states, and especially
to New York state.

WEBER WAS ELECTED,
And Prange Should Proceed to
Pick Another Place.

Mr. Scherer, the county super1ntend-
ent of schools of Blue Earth county,
wrote to Attorney General Childs
few days ago for an opinion in regard
to an election of a school director that
was held in District $50 of that county
a short time since, and over which
very nice legal point has been raised.
The attorney generals opinion is given
in full:
George W. Scherer, Esq. County
Superintendent of Schools, Mankato.
Minn.-Dear Sir: You state that at the
last school meeting held in School Dis
trict $50 OF your county there were
thirty voters present, and at the cleo
ton for director fourteen votes were
cast for one Henry Prange, fifteen for
Henry Weber, and one for Henry w.
The clerk of the meeting kept a regis
ter of the voters present, and his tally
sheet showed Twenty-Five votes. This
would seem to be erroneous as that
officer admitted the presence Of thirty
voters, and that the error was due
to his carelessness. The moderator,
Weber elected director for the unex-
pired term, one year remaining. Not
withstanding this, and against the pro-
test of those who had voted for Mr..
Weber, and, indeed, after the meet,
ing had proceeded to and accomplished
the election Of a clerk, another ballot
was had for director, resulting in six
teen votes being cast for the said
Prange and fourteen for the said
Weber.
In view of the foregoing statement
of facts, you inquire which, of these
persons was elected director.
The hrst ballot clearly resulted in
dent that all present voted, and no
valid question can arise upon the
statement OF facts, that sixteen votes
were actually cast for Mr.. Weber.
In view of the fact that that gen.
tleman was one Of the two candidates
for the office, presumably the only
person present to whom the vote
''Henry W. would apply, and fur
thernore. well known to most of those
present, I am unable to reach any
other conclusion than that he was
lawfully elected. It therefore follows
that the second ballot, purporting to
result in the election of Mr.. Prange,
was a mere nullity, and should be
disregarded. 1 am very truly yours,
H. W. CHILDS,
Attorney General.

FAT AND TOOTHsONE
Are the Prairie Birds Which the
SpOrtsmen Are Seeking

SpOrtsmeH Are Seeking.
Chickens will be ripe next week
and already the exodus for the prairies
is becoming marked in the city. The
dealers in sporting goods are begin
ming to reap rich harvest in trade,
and every devotee of Nimrod is fast
getting himself into shape for the
sport of the fall season. The club
house of the st. Paul Gun club is at
present the Mecca of the men who
shoot, and yesterday several members
departed for North Dakota DIR.
Charles A. Wheaton headed the dele
cation, and he was joined by DR..
Quinn and Charles Yale. Other mem
bers of the Rod and Gun club will
leave early next week to take a hand
in the sport. A. H. Pike, of New
York, who scarcely ever misses a sea-
son on the prairies, passed through
the city yesterday with a pack of
dogs and hunting outfit, and many
other Eastern sportsmen are expected
daily. The season this year promises
to be exceptionally good, as it always
is when the Northwest has a big crop
OF small grains, and the birds will be
very fat and toothsome.
