THE CIRCUS.
Some Feats Not Seen With Other
Tent Shows.

Gollmar Bros circus was a great
deal better than advertised, and in
these days of over-advertised shows,
this is saying a great deal. In the
first place the circus allowed no skin
games to be carried on around it's
tents, and all of the employees were
courteous and gentlemanly in their
work and business. The ticket SELL
ers we're as honest in their transac-
tons as Nature intended them, and in
case ticket buyer made a mistake
in change whereby the seller got too
much money the buyer was called
back and the surplus money handed
him.
Of the side show, which was packed
from noon until the big circus opened,
it can be said that there were not as
many features as there generally are
with larger circuses, but all of the
features were first-class and the crowd
was highly entertained. In the side
show the animals were kept. Gollmar
Bros. make no pretensions to carrying
a menagerie with them, and hence
whatever they displayed in the line of
menagerie was an addition that the
people had no right to expect The
animals showed were worth seeing,
and were curios for the children, as
we'll as some of the older people to
look at.
In the big show tent there were ex-
hibitions which the writer has never
before seen, and without egotism, it
can be stated that he has seen Bar
NUNS, Forepaugh's, Ringling's, Sells
and good many of the other circuses.
The performing hogs we're little bit
in advance of anything ever seen.
There are human hogs, and other kind
of hogs that can he taught something,
but when you take brute hog of the
razor-back stripe, and crowd knowl-
edge into them, it shows work on part
of the instructor. The feats of these
two hogs we're wonderful, and all who
witnessed their acts will acknowledge
this. The bareback riding was also
excellent, while the dog tricks, the
donkey act, and the Herculean exhibit
ton of the two brothers in white, we're
something ahead of anything we have
ever seen. On the trapeze the chair
balancer went step ahead of all com
petitors in his act by balancing on the
forelegs of the chair.
The best part of the whole circus
was that it was strictly moral show.
The clowns. while haying one or two
ancient remarks, confined themselves
to refined humor, and made no utter
ance that could be excepted to by the
most fastidious. This was pleasure
to local circus goers and won for Coll
mars many favorable comments.
In the afternoon of Saturday the
tent was packed and good many
people were compelled to find seats
on the ground. In the evening, as is
the case with all Redwood circus
audiences, the crowd was very light
and the programme was cut short, as
consequence. The grounds were too
| far out. Of town to call for a crowd in
the evening.

The money for the various revenue
and road and bridge funds of Red
wood county amounts to considerable,
and the different townships will carry
on the work for good roads more than
ever. The work is meritorious one,
and speaks as we'll for the residents Of
the county as do the fine farms, etc.,
and the roads are as important to the
farmers and residents of the county
even more so-than they are to the
tourist wheeling over the county. The
funds for each town are as follows:

Governor Hastings yesterday heard argu-
ments in favor of the appropriations to
the Pottsvile Hospital, the Chidren's
Home and the proposed hospital for the
Mahanoy Valley There WIS a large dele
CATION of Schuylkill county people on hand
and the Governor gave them every oppor-
tunity to present their claims. Hon. c. &.
Schrink headed delegation in the interest
Of the Pottsvlle hospital, while Senator Coyle
spoke for the proposed Mahanoy hospital.
Those who accompanied him were John A.
Reilly and Christ. Schmidt, Shenandoah; L.
S. Siliman and David NJ. Graham, of Maha-
noy City; Supt. E. w. Ash, of the Schuylkil
Traction Company; Deputy Controller Burd
w. Payne and Register of Wills f. G.
Reese. This hospital is not erected yet,
neither has site been secured The plea
made by Senator Coyle was for friends to
erect it, contending that it wasvery badly
needed. He was followed by L. S. Silliman,
Burd w. Payne and f. c. Reese. 1t was con-
tended that the people of the township, poor
as they are cannot afford to maintain a hos
pital as well as build IT, Many Of them are
miners, and need assistance. Most Of the
townships sick now have to be sent to the
Philadelphia hospital, 125 miles away. The
miners, they contended, will put up the
hospital ITSELF but ask aid for maintenance.
The Governor sent the delegation to the State
Board of Charities with a request that the
committee should lay the subject fully before
the members

Party Once Again.

Party Once Again.
Louisville, KY, July 15.-Notable and
unique to a degree beyond any held
.or more than a score of years in Ken
lucky was the convention which yes
ierday and last night brought 10 Louis
vile from all parts of the Bloody
ground" the sturdy sons of Demo-
cratic forefathers with the purpose, as
they put it, of sustaining true Democ-
racy and bringing back to the folds
those men who have strayed after a
silver idol.
The most prominent Of Kentucky's S
statesmen were in attendance. There
was almost a constant flow of oratory,
led by Secretary Carlisle and Henry
Watterson, of which nearly a thou
sand delegates did not weary. and
every face revealed the zeal which was
felt in the cause which led to their as
scmbling. 1t may be said, too, that
firmly as they were imbued with the
principles which underlie cheir party
Of national Democracy, little of bitter
rcss towards free silver brothers founl /
expression. While determined TO fight
without compromise or yielding the ad-
vocates of free silver, 1t was almost the
unanimous conviction that the true
spirit should consist in a tireless effort
to ''reclaim" those who had parted
from them, and once again enable Ken
lucky and every state to present a solid
united Democracy to oppose the Re
publican party or any political foe.
Complete satisfaction with the work
of the convention was to be read in the
face and bearing of all of the dele
gates when final adjournment came,
and confidence was freely expressed I'm
the ultimate winning of a victory
which would lead to a national sue,
cess in the next presidential contest.
Hon. John r. TIindman, of Adair
county was unanimously nominated
on the first ballot for clerk of the court
Of appeals.

QUAY-HASTINGS AFFAIR.
No Rupture For the Present. and Probably
None at All.

HARBIsBURG, Pa, July l5.-It is ap.
parent that the politicians who have cx.
peCted a serious break between Governor
Hastings and Senator Quay are somewhat at
sea. Senator Durham, who had q conference
with the Governor yesterday, at the latter's
request, did not bear the air after the in
terview of a man who had left a breach be-
hind him. 1t is true that the Governors
business with Durham was about other mat
ters than the United States Senatorship, and
had TO do with some political legislation local
to Philadelphia, not taking in the Becker
bill, but the satisfied manner Of the two
gentlemen after their talk somewhat em-
phasized the impression given out that
neither Governor Hastings nor Senator
Durhams friend, the senior United States
Senator, were drawing political daggers at
each other.
But the Governor will veto the Becker bill,
and will keep aloof from factional party
quarrels. He will not, however, take oc-
casion in his veto to attack Quay or Quay's
friends, as has been reported. In short, the
situation, so far as the material results are
concerned as between the Executive and the
Republican Senatorial leaders, remains as it
did before the visit of Quay and Penrose here
last week
Before leaving here Senator Durham said
that he was not here ON harmony mission,
and that he had asked the Governor to sign
a couple of bills making appropriations to
Philadelphia institutions among them the
colored hospital. Senator Durham also said
that he talked a little politics on the side,
but it did not refer to the alleged unpleasant
ness between the Governor and Quay
The impression grew in political circles
yesterday that the reports of friction be-
tween Senator Quay and Governor Hastings
had been highly colored, and that there was
no probability of a fight between Quay and
the Governor materalizing This was the
opinion of men who are friendly with both
the principals, and it was stated that the two
leaders are still ON friendly terms, notwith-
standing the impression that the Governor
will veto the Becker three-ffths bill.
