BUcKLEYI1ES CLOSE IN.
They Will Make Their Legis
lative Nominations Thurs.
day Evening.
Final Arrangements Made for g
Primary and for an Early NUM-
cipal Convention.

The Buckley general committee held a
meeting last night which packed the hall
at Headquarters, at "a Ellis street, and
proceeded vigorously with the arrange
ments for the municipal convention of
this faction, to be held in B mai Birth
Hall on September 3.
The report of the executive committee
again changing TO earlier ones the, dates
Cor the convention and its preliminary
events was read by Secretary D. M. Gavi-
igan and unanimously approved. The adj
vance in the dates, it was explained, was
made so that the municipal ticket could
be nominated and the test case which the
Buckleyites will push vigorously as to
whether they or the Junta are entitled to
the party designation expedited.
1t was decided that the district clubs
should meet next Thursday evening, the
Goth inst, to nominate members of the
State Legislature and delegates to the mu-
nicipal convention. The primaries will be
held on September 1 and the convention
two days later.
A discussion arose about the method of
making legislative nominations, and a
reference to the constitution showed that
district clubs were required to make nomi-
nations: that at the primary the candi-
date receiving the highest mum Der of votes
would be the Assembly or Senatorial dis
trict nominee, and that the district nomi-
nations must be approved by tie munich
pal convention.
1t was announced that the district clubs
would meet on the evening of August 20
at the following places to nominate Legis-
lative candidates:
.Twenty-eighth District-Drew's Hal, 121 New

TWO CIRCUSES IN one.
The Great Forepaugh'S Sells Com
binaticn to Arrive
Soon.
For Ten Days and Nights the Public
Will Have Plenty of Amuse-
ment.

The amusement-lovlng public will soon
have a treat in the shape of the largest
circus that has ever reached this coast.
The huge tents of the Adam FOrepaugh
and Sells Brothers consolidated shows
will be pitched in Central Park, on Mar
ket and Eighth streets, on September 3.
The show will continue for ten days only,
but during that time every novelty of the
arena, the sawdust ring and in the zool0g-
ical world will be presented.
The famous original Adam Forepaugh
herd of wild animals and the equally ex-
pert one of Sells Brothers are included in
this rare assem- blage of animal actors, and
appear simultaneously, illustrating in
many most surprising and entertaining
ways the methods of the different schools
in which they. have been educated as sol
diers, dancers, clowns, boxers, musicians,
grotesques, wheelmen, high ballancers,
dudes, walters, diners. mimics, come
dams, acrobats and multiversant artists.
Every species of every age and size is
represented, including elephants from
Africa, Asia, Ceylon, Borneo and Sumat-
"a, and ranging from the huge monarch of
at least a century's growth to the dwarf
and baby. They also appear in the grand
double daily street parade, forming with
other noble and savage creatures re-
markable exhibit in most remarkable
pageant, wSlich serves as stupendously
suggestive prelude to the finest perform
ance ever seen.
The only genuine Japanese circus is one
of the unique and astonishing features of
the united shows, and the aerial perform
ances include the only flying trapeze acts
done by ladies in full dress and long
skirts, and the funniest midair bar antics
ever seen.
The management has made every ar
rangement for the amusement of the chill
dren, who will be no doubt kept in an up
roar by the antics of the clowns. The
street parades, too, will form an interest.

presented public spectacle that attracted

Natal was exceptionally good, and her execu-
ton of the very difficult music with which this
role abounds marked her as diva OF culture

MicheIena and Manrico shared the honors
with her, and in the final act both OF these ar
fists came in for welI-deserved ovation.
Maurice de Vries gathered fresh laurels as
the count. His performance was admirable In
every respect.
IL had been intended that Flora Finlay son
should appear as Azeena. Owing TO illness
she was unable to DO so, but her place was ca
pably supplied by Bernice Holmes, who is ems

Chinatown Investigation in a Syste.

Morning.

The system attic inspection OF the Chinese
quarter by the Board of Health, with a
view to finding out just how many build

will begin this morning under the super
vision of Inspectors Kenney and Fay,
who reported at the Health Office yester-
dav that everything was in readiness for
the arduous task that is before them.
It is expected that the Chinese, who are

force of inspectors and police will be di-

taken to see that no nook or Granny of the
quarter is left UNEMPLOYED.
The work of each squad for each day
will be cut out for it beforehand, and the
results will be written out for the benefit
of the Health Officer each evening. The
canvass Will be made from house to house,
the blocks on each street being taken in

escape the scrutiny OF the inspectors.
Where buildings are deemed to be imme-

IN A GRIP OF IRON
How a Bulldogs Characteristic
Tenacity Brought Him
to Grief.
Crowds Gather to Witness the Man.
ner in Which His Jaws Were
Made to Relax

George Thackeray, of Twenty-second
street, near Fair Oaks, has very sick dog.
A night or so ago John L. Williams and a
handsome Gordon setter were taking a
promenade, neither man nor dog thinking
of trouble. Suddenly Mr.. Williams missed
his dog. Turning about, he saw the ami
NAL with its face apparently glued to Mr..
Thaekeray's fence. He drew near to In
vestigate the situation when a low growl
admonished him to keep where he was.
Peeping discreetly over the fence he saw
that the Thackeray canine had his own by
the muZZle and would not let him go.
A ten-Ioot pole was called into requi-
sition, but with indifferent success, the
only effect OF its use being wild duet of
yelps, grOwls, whineS and frantic yells,
which soon filled the street with people.
Thackeray came forth to reprimaDd his
bulldog, but the brute hung on with a
grip compared to which that of wise was
hand. Sticks, stones, hot water, bricks
and Goals were employed with no avail,
though the crowd cheered Justify.
An obliging neighbor, seeing that other
energies were powerless, furnished carv-
ing knife, wherewith the bulldog was cut
and hacked in order to make him release
his hold. In the darkness Mr.. Thackeray's
left wrist was severely cut; but the dog
held on. A desperate remedy was mployed
at last, the bulldogs jaw being laid bare
by deep, jagged cut. Faint with loss of
blood, the lusty warrior lay down, his grip
relaxing only when his bleeding body had
become Inert. An officer OF the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
offered to kill the mangled dog, but Mr..
Thackeray promised to have him cured,
as he might prove of use in case of inva-
sion by some hostile power.
Mr.. Williams pet, though much bat
tered in the melee, is paratively unin-
jured. His facial beauty, to be sure, is
much impaired, but "in other respects he

Found to BE of Great Strategic Talus to
Germany.
BERLIN, GERMANY, Aug. 1.-THE plan
in connection with the German naval
maneuvers to test the strategic value OF
the Baltic North Sea canal has been car
ried out without hitch. Thirty-nine
warships have traversed the canal in thirty
hours without an accident of any kind
happening. This performance, in view OF
the adv erse foreign comment upon the un-
certainty of the canal, is regarded as a
fact that greatly enhances the use of the
waterway, showing, as it does, the rapidity
with which warships can pass from one
sea to the other. Emperor William is de-
lighted with the result OF the maneuvers
and is particularly pleased with the sue
cessful passage of the warships.
