A BIG SHOW COMING,
RngIing Bros. Famous Circus to Exhibit in
 Birmingham October 90.

There is no city in the union where a
 good thing is better appreciated than in
 Birmingham. Therefore it will be pleas
 ura ble news for the show-going people of
 this city to learn that a new show, a big
 show and a show that has never been
 seen in this city, will exhibit here for the
 first, time Friday, October 30. This big
 circus, popular elsewhere as Ringing
 Bros. Worlds Greatest Shows, will un- douhtedly be revelation to the people Of this city. The Memphis Commercial-Ap-
 peal calls it the 'best and ceanest big show ever seen in that city," and every where it exhibits press and public unite in it's praise.
 The performances to be given will be identical in every way with those pre- sented at the immense Tattersalls Am phitheater, in Chicago, forforty-five con secutive performances, during which the great structure was crowded day and night by thousands of enthusiastic spec tatorS. Among the arenic celebrities are many European specialists entirely new
 to this country. Chief among these are the French family of expert bicyclers and
 roller skaters Le Fleur, the intrepid
 French diver; the Three Picados; the acrobatic Brothers LeRoy, and the Lan- dauer Troupe of nine classic models from
 Berlin. Among the many other sensa-
 tional features are the incomparable
 Nelson family of nine lady and gentle
 man acfobatS, the highest Salaried arenic
 act in the world; the Flying Dacomas;
 Mime. Irwin, the human top" Mike
 Rooney, Elena Ryland and dozen other
 male and female riders of world d-wide
 reputation; three herds of performing
 elephants, including the only herd of
 baby elephants in the world Mons. Ma
 talie's Imaginable pig circus; the Worlds
 Greatest Menagerie, embracing the only living ChimpanZee in the United States, genuine blood eXuding hippopotamus, and more other range and interesting wild animals than any dozen geological gardens can boast of; a revival of the | ancient Roman hippodrome races on a scale of unparalleled grandeur and com pleteness, and a grand introductory spec tacle, typifying the wealth of color, the richness of wardrobe and the classic gorgeousness of the famous Festival of Olympus. An original feature with Ring ling Bros shows is the fact that nothing | is advertised that is not presented in the performance precisely as announced. An other departure particularly commenda- ble in this day of equvocation and mis- representation, when so many shows are masquerading under obsolete titles, is the fact that the show is owned, controlled, managed and accompanied by it's five famous proprietors, who make it their personal pleasure to look after the com fort of their patrons and thus guard them from the impositions that are too frequently permitted by other managers. Circus day will be inaugurated with a grand street parade in which all the bril- liant professional features of the show will be exhibited free upon the citys streets.

MT. A ustin's Protest.

MT. Austin's Protest.
 At this juncture the secretary read the following communication which was a mo- tice of contest from MT. c. w. Austin, a candidate fur the aldermanic nomination from the Third ward.
 To the Honorable Executive Committee of
 the Democratic Party for the City of Bir-
 mingham
 Your orator, c. w. Austin, respectfully shows unto your honorable committee that he is candidate for the democratic nomination for alderman from the Third ward of said city of Birmingham, and that at the primary election held to select the nominee for said office, on Tuesday, the 9th day of October, 1S96 he received a sufficient number of the legal votes cast in said election to nominate him as such alderman; but that the managers of said election counted and returned enough illegal votes to so change the re- suit that one J. T. Mcknight, and not your orator, has upon the face of the returns been selected as nominee. More particularly your orator shows that one C. F. A. Stuckler who does not reside in the city of Birmingham, was permitted to vote for said Mcknight, and the vote of said Stuckler was counted for said Me- Knight; said Stuckler being all the time a resident of Woodlawn in Jefferson county, Ala bama. Also, contrary to the regulations made and provided by your honorable committee, certain ballots were cast on which no one of the names of the several candidates for alderman in said ward were cancelled; but said ballots were marked with a cross mark oppo- site the name of said Mcknight, and that said ballots were counted for said Me Knight as though same had been duly and regularly marked and cast for him.
 And your orator shows that according to the returns from said ward as they now stand, your orator lacks but five votes of receiving the nomination over said Mcknight, and that were the vote of said Stuckler thrown out and the other illegal votes wrongfully marked as afore- said thrown out your orator would have received a sufficient number of votes to elect him. Wherefore your orator most solemnly protests against said Mcknight being declared by your honorable com

supported Mckinley. They told him they
would act with the party in Congress

that in Wyoming and other -,,mountain
states. the silver sentiment had increased
rather than diminished since the election
and it was of the highest Importance to
the Republicans to enact legislation pro-
vidiDg for an international monetary con-
ference.
Mr.. Clark declared that the selection
of Senator Sherman, or any man looked
