Wards Circus Coming. - Advance
car No. 2 of the Wards Great London
Shows arrived in town Wednesday night
and early Thursday morning the town
and surrounding country was abaze
with bright-hued pictures announcing
the forthcoming of the worlds greatest
one-ring show museum, and trained an.
imal exhibition. For % years Wards
London shows have enjoyed prosper
Gus tour of the West and South and this
season Mr.. Ward is reaching out for new
fields to conquer, and judging by the ex-
celent notices given by the press of the
various cities in New England thus far
visited, the Ward shows must be of more
than ordinary excellence.
Speaking of the performances given in
Boston the week of May 10th the Herald
OF that city says: mot only were we
surprised at the clean performance given
by the Wards London show, but it was
a treat to return to boyhood circus days
and look once more upon the one saw.
dust ring and the genuine young clowns.
AS for the performance we could wish for
nothing better. 1t has been our pleasure
to watch the performance of many
trained horses, but never before have we
seen the equal Of Prof, Van Vrankin's
educated horse, Forrest" and dumb as
the animal creation may seem, this noble
animal does everything but speak. The
LaMoths gave clever exhibition on the
flying trapeze, introducing many new
feats. Tucker Bros. ground and lofty
tumblers and Morris Beauvis, the sensa-
tional one-arm acrobat, were other
features, in fact the entire performance
OF 16 acts were all features"
Wards London shows will give two
exhibitions on Railroad street, St. Johns
bury, next Monday, at two and eight p.
m. See advertisement for further in
formation.

Boy Lost and Found. -Alphonse, the

Boy Lost and F0und.-Alphonse, the
14-year-old son of Louis Gingras, desir-
ing to make vsitin Canada, ran away
from home last Friday. He left here about
s o'clock, walking as far north as Lyn-
donville, where he took the II o'clock
train and made his next stopping place
in Sherbrooke. The little fellow had no
money, but the conductor let him ride
when he said he was only 1 l years old.
A thorough search was made for the boy
and Sunday the father telegraphed to
Sherbrooke. Following the instructions
of the telegram the boy was recognized
in the railroad station, put on train
and sent home, reaching here Sunday
night. He spent the time in Sherbrooke
wandering about the streets and said
that all he had to eat from the time he
left home until his return were few
crackers. The boy has probably had
sufficient experience in the tramping line
and will not soon be anxious for another
runaway trip.

The School Exhibition.-Th Town
hall was thronged last Friday and Sat
urday with parents and friends OF pupils
of the schools in town, over thousand
adults, to say nothing of the many
children, visited the exhibition during
the two days. Every school, but one Of
four pupils only, was represented in
some way, and each pupil from Oldest to
youngest had some specimen of their
handiwork there. Neat and legible spec
linens of vertical penmanship which put
to shame the writing of most of the
elders OF the present day, were one Of the
notable features OF the exhibition.
Drawing from nature and objects. maps
illustrating the products and where
found, of our own and foreign countries;
flowers, birds, original designs and
copies, were all remarkably well done;
kindergarten weaving, sewing and de-
signing by means of straws and peas
showed how early in lite one can be made
to develope the ingenuity and talent in
various ways. Many other lines of
work in the various grades were shown,
all demonstrating the progress in the
modern methods of instruction. This is
the first exhibition of the kind ever held
in st. Johnsbury, and besides the large
local attendance there were many school
directors here from the other towns in
the county. The exhibits were all ar
ranged by schools and each teacher ex-
planned to the interested visitors the
work OF her pupils. This exhibition
showed what excellent work our schol,
ars are doing and the school directors
and Superintendent Kelly, who has
been hard worker for the best interests
OF the public schools. with his efficient
corps of teachers, have every reason to
feel that their Efforts have been crowned
with success.

New York, March 4.-TO-day's market
was active and marked by an enlarged
volume of trading. Over 226000 shares
being sold on the stock exchange. There
was a wide variety Of properties dealt
in. But the tendency of the market
was distinctly reacti0nary and the de-
clines were notable in many stocks. The
early gains were soon lost and heaviness
overlook the entire market. There was
slight check to the downward trend due
to a rally of Ia in Chicago Gas ON re-
ports of good prospects for consideration.
The rally in the general list was unimpor-
tant and the downward course was re-
sumed.
When the Presidents inaugural ad-
dress had been published and had been
read by the traders, the paragraph on
the subject of trusts was seized on by
the bears and an extensive raid organized
on the industrials. These succumed
readily and precipitated a further fall in
the whole market. The market was
very active from that time up to about
delivery hour.
The bond market continues to exhibit
pronounced strength regardless of the
| feverishness of the stock speculation,
| confidence in the general financial and
commercial outlook is reflected in keen
investment demand for railway and mis-
cellaneous mortgages which carried many
issues up substantially. Governments
were neglected at the board, slight ad-
vances in bid prices failed to bring out
any offerings, but the outside dealings
| were very heavy.
