Others.
Fully Cd cars are necessary to trans
port the immense material of the Bar
nun & Bailey Greatest Show on Earth,
which is of an unusually novel kind and
genuine instruction, happily blended in
all that is presented. The entertainment
called Oriental India, with it's charm
ing dancing girls, mystic dancers,
dwaris, Singhalese, sacred and weird
male dancers, tree climbers and Others af-
fords one Of the most interesting and
instructive sights ever offered, while the
unusual spectacle of living gorilla is
presented. Johanna is unquestionably
the greatest living attraction ever seen
by man, and located as it is near the
strange races of people, affords an OPP
portunity of comparison never probably
presented before. Three circus compan-
les, among which are 16 champion male
and female bareback riders, three rings,
three stages, racing track, are required
to show all the performances, which in
cludes everything OF interest procurable
in both hemispheres. Champions from
all countries, in every line of trained and
expert feats are to be seen in the 100 acts,
while the races are novel, the trained
animal exhibit wonderful the aerial dis
plays marvellous, and the features of the
menagerie almost impossible to speak Of.
Fifty trained horses appear in one ring
at one time and "a elephants in three
rings at another, while natives contest
with those of foreign countries in leaping
over high obstacles, and afterwards are
seen in the beautiful equestrian May-pole
dance and realistic fox hunters meet,
and, all in ALL the whole show is grand
in conception, and presented upon a
scale OF magnitude hitherto unequalled.
The new street parade, also, is wonder
fu novelty, showing as it does all the
crowned heads Of the world All will be
here on Tuesday, August IL.

hard work on the part OF the county

HAVANA, Nov. 22.-The first def
mite pronouneemert from Captain Gen.
eral Weyler since he has taken the
field in person in Pinar del Rio was
secured by the correspondent of Ell
Liberal Of Madrid. in an interview
with. Captain Genaral Weyler, at ia
can, near San Cristobal, yesterday.
Gen. Weyler asserted that he was
highly pleased with the results of his
campaign in Pinar del Rio so far. He
announced that he expected to remain
to conduct active operations for fifteen
or twenty days longer, adding: "Wait
until Christmas. BY that date We
shall have dealt a mortal blow to the
revolution
When asked about the whereabouts
of Antonio Maceo, Gen. Weyler re-
piled that he was southwest of the
railway line and that he always
avoided an engagement with the Span
ish troops even when he occupied an
advantageous position. Gen. Weyler
expressed delight with the success of
Spain's internal loan.
Important news from the south
coast of Pinar del Rio is now awaited
in view Of Gen. WeyIers new move
ments in that region. Major Macias,
while acting as an escort for provis-
ions for the fort on the heights of
Toro, was attacked during the march
by insurgents posted on surrounding
heights. The latter were dislodged
after two hours fight with heavy loss

DISASTER TO MERRYNAKERS
Dozen Young People Injured by the
Collapse Of a Bridge.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Nov. pa
party of a dozen young people who left
Ensley City early last night in a wagon
for hay ride had their merriment
transformed into death and disaster
before they had proceeded a mile on
their journey.
Ten days ago a new bridge was COM
pleted across Village creek near Ensley
City. While crossing this stream the
structure gave way, precipitating the
wagon and it's load of human freight
fifteen feet below into the water Not
a person in the vehicle escaped unin-
jured.
William Shannon, aged twenty was hurt
about the head, which caused concussion of
the brain. from which he died today Miss
Maggie Hartgan was seriously injured about
the head, and her back was sprained. 1t is
feared she will die. Charles Barnes had his
scalp cut open for two inches and received
internal injuries, which may result seriously.
The other injured were: c. L. Shannon,
head badly cut. G. G. Campbell horribly
bruised. Ed Blackburn, arm broken. Sam
Jones, cut and bruised in head and shoulders.
Miss Lula and Miss Annie Williams, badly
cut and bruised. Miss Nellie Blackburn,
bruised: Eph Bowie, colored driver, back
sprained.
The cause of the accident was that
the stringers of the bridge were too
short and by constant iarring they
gradually worked off the sills. The jar
of the wagon caused them to fall let
ting the entire span down.
The water in the creek was six feet
deep, so that but for timely work Of
those least injured the young ladies
and those most seriously hurt would
have been drowned.
The coroner will begin an investiga-
tion tomorrow. There is talk of suits
for damages against the county.

Protestant Episcopal chapel. Rev.

crate services will be held in Denver

city early this morning, accompanied
by the nephew of the deceased, Robert
l.. Porter, was present. Richard Ar

in his life in better health than when
he came East. He was always strong
and healthy and there was no tenden-
cy toward heart disease or any other
organic disease in the Arbuckle fam
lily. She also wished to have it known
that Mr.. Arbuckle had not transferred
certain of his property to her and that
his estate was unmOrtgaged and he
was IN full ownership Of all of his
property when he died. Mr.. Arbuckle
also carried large Insurance on his
