difference between gold Democrat and
a gold Populist is as follows: A gold
Democrat is one who has gone to gold,
because he believes in the gold standard
lie believes in higher money and cheaper

A Marvellous Feature With Ringing Bros.
Famous Big Show.

| In adding the marvellous Locihar'
| comedy elephants to their already SUI
pendous enterprise, Ringing Bros, have
not only dumbfounded their would-oe
competitors, but they have offered TO the
American public a novelty that mas
created more genuine interest than any
event in the amusement world during
the past half century. None OF the
familiar tricks and numbering, ungainly
acts performed by other elephants are
included in their repertoire. They are
literally animal actors. They present
complete comedies, properly costumed
and with appropriate scenic effects, and
they perform their artistic work with a
sense OF it's value and an appreciation OF
its humor such as no human comedian
could surpass. In one of their ludicrous-
ly funny comedies, the clown elephant
becomes intoxicated, and, Keeling about
apparently in the last stages OF inebria-
ton, is apprehenjed by an elephant
policeman, armed with great club. and
marched away to the office OF the near
est magistrate. This legal dignltary,
ensconced in his high judicial chair, and
gowned and bewigged as BELTS mis- high
office, sits III judgment upon the offender,
and having heard the evidence and wise
" pondered upon the enormity Of the
offense declares in unmistakable panto-
mine that the culprit is guilty and is
committed to Jail. The policeman ele-
plant Immediately acts upon the orders
OF the court, seizes the commitment pa
pers. catches the offender, now fully
sobered, by the ear, and hustles him OH
to Jail. In his place Of durance the un-
happy culprit is visited by MS bewailing
and greatly scandaliZed family, who
finally accomplish his rescue by over
turning the jail and forcibly setting the
cuiprit at liberty. All the actors in this
laughabie comedy are elephants. Not
word of command is spoken; and so well
have the elephant comedians learned
their difficult lesson that they never
falter for moment in their unspoken
lines. The police court scene is. how
ever, only one Of several intensely anus
ing comedies performed by these eie-
phant actors, and, in addition, they pre-
sent a complete vaudeville program, en-
bracing jig dancing, Waiting, playing
on musical instruments, intricate mill
tary evolutions and other feats that are
credible only TO those who have actually
seen these marvellous elephant come
dams. Ringing Bros stupendous insti-
tuition viii exhibit in Wichita. Thursday,

Some Royal Titles.

The kings and queens of England
were not always styled his or cher

bestowed upon Victoria - cher most

"his grace" Henry VI "his most ex-
cellent grace" Edward ", "high and
mighty prince" Henry VII, "his grace
and his majesty" Henry VIII, Ibis
highness" and afterward "his males
ty." Subsequently the English kings
were styled Ibis sacred majesty. :"
While on the subject it may not be I'M
interesting to give the meaning of some
royal titles-thus: King means father
kaiser and car, Caesar, or autocrat, a
contraction of Samoderebeta; duke
means leader; emperor, commander
hospodar, master of the house; khan,
provincial chief; landgrave, land reeve;
margrave, border reeve; nizam, ruler;
pharaoh, light of the world; shah, pro-
