The Robinson-srank,in Show.

For the first time in two years Mar
ietta was visited Wednesday by an
orthodox circus and menagerie, that of
the combined John Robinson and
Franklin Bros.
Inside the vast tent tremendous audi
ences assem- bled both afternoon and
evening, and they saw what to our no.
tion were frst-class performances. The
acts were many, and all very well
done. There were u number of attrac-
tive and difficult novel feats performed.
The horse show of itself was worth the
admission price, and the admirable
way the pretty fellows went through
their PAGES called forth the greatest
applause.
In the menagerie were many fine
animals. all in good condition, and
some of them were extremely rare.
The American people think it is well
nigh duty to go to a menagerie and
circus, and it is in it's way an educator
and good thing. Especially is this
true of the Robinson Franklin attrac.
tion.
They show today at Canal Dover.
