THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

$1,000 in Prizes for Races and Sports of Every
Kind-H Monster Parade.
This week the committee in charge Of
the Fourth July celebration have been
greatly in evidence and ae the efforts of
those in charge are not likely to be;
crippled by lack of cash, the program
will eclipse in magnitude all those of
previous years. This year an immense
industrial parade is being gotten up, in
which every business firm in Langdon
will be represented by gaily decked
float. The ladies have in preparation an
important spectacular display in which
the school children will be utilized in
representation of the different states of
the Union with the Goddess of Liberty
and Uncle Sam as central figures. The
brigade of jolly Calithumpians and other
allegorical features of the parade, as we'll
as the full dress bicycle display, are in
charge of DR.. Smith. on whose shoulders
this part of the celebration devolves.
In the way of sports a match game of
base ball between Langdon and Hannah
and champion La Crosse match be-
tween two Manitoba clubs for purse of
s1OO, and side bet OF $500 help to fill in
the forenoon of both Saturday and Mon
day, in addition to which a program of
other athletic sports is now being laid
out by the committee.
A speed program of running and
trotting events for purses aggregating
81 200 will be held each afternoon on the
rebuilt track of the Association which is
now one of the fastest and safest in the
state. The program Of races is as fol-

to Exhibit in this City.
The mere announcement that the John
Robinson Greatest of All American
Shows Is to exhibit in Langdon, on
Thursday of next week should be suffi-
cient to crowd the tents of this great
amusement institution to overflowing.
For "a years the John Robinson Show
has been Americas leading circus, and
year after year it has been so greatly i'm
proved and augmented that it's would be
competitors have never come. within hail
ing distance of it. Strange to say, it has
preserved it's great and distinctive name
through three generations, and it is still
a John Robinson who holds the helm and
guides it on it's career Of uninterrupted
success. This season the management
has again demonstrated its enterprise
and regard for the public by securing
what is undoubtedly the most startling
arenic feature ever presented with an
American circus. In presenting Louis
Cry, the Canadian giant of strength, as a
unique special attraction of the show, all
records of managerial enterprise have
been broken. Mr.. Cry is the strongest
man in the world and he receives more
than double the salary ever paid to any
single circus attraction, either in this
country or in Europe. Mr.. Cry is, how
ever, not the only great feature of the
show. The rooster fairly scintillates with
the names of world-famous performers,
among whom are the Brothers LaRole,
the flying meteors; the Harvey Family of
acrobats; Samuel Burt, the wonderful
ladder equilibrist: the Miller Family of
bicyclists; Julia and Cecil Lowande, VIM.
and Nellie Dutton, and dozen other
great somersault riders, and hundreds of
other specialists in new, novel and start
ling feats of skill, daring and dexterity.
A superb menagerie, a thrilling real Ro-
man hippodrome and horse fair con-
tanning over $50 of the finest blooded
horses are among the many other attrac-
tions of this greatest Of great shows.

shelves on which TO stand the shining miikpans
