GOMEZ LETTER
! Jacksonville. Fla, April l2-The Cuban
/ junta here received very important let
ter from General Gomez yesterday via
Key West. While It's contents have been
/ guarded carefully and the main portion
sent to the New York junta, yet It is as
certained that II brings news that Gomez
| is preparing TO cooperate with the United
States forces in case Of war in an attack
| upon Havana.
Calixto Garcia has passed the trocha
and he and Gomez with some 1900 troops
are now marching westward. The insurg-
ents are recruiting in all sections and
from good authority it is ascertained that
Gomez promised to have from 500 to
! 5000 troops behind Havana to aid in re-
ducing IT,
The letter added that the Spanish Off
| GERS there were greatly worried over the
news OF Gomez approach and that troops
had been called into Havana and that
much work was being done throwing new
earthworks up in the rear OF the city
| and otherwise strengthening the forts in
that section.
The insurgents. so the dispatch said
hailed with joy the Intervention of the
| United States and their ranks are being
rapidly increased daily. Gomez and the
United States are now in close touch and
the news OF the declaration OF war will
be carried to him by means of private sig
nails without loss OF time so that he could
move with knowledge Of what the United
States is doing. A campaign is all ar
ranged according to this authority.

A BRILLIANT PAGEANT.
Ringling Bros, the Grandest Display
ever seen in America.

A thirty-section street paradel
This is the startling novelty which
Ringing Brothers, the noted circus
managers, offer the public this year
as the latest evidence of their orig
inlIity aud munifcent expenditure.
The idea OF dividing circus pro-
cession into DIVISIONS is in itself a
novelty, and the leading newspapers
everywhere declare that Ringing
Bros. street parade is the most
noYel, the most unique, the most
gorgeous and the most royalty
resplendent street display ever in
augurated by a circus management.
And even this does not tell the full
story of its wonders. Each section
represents some distinct national
characteristics, either in this or
other countries, or some noted his
toric era, while the costuming, the
tabIeaux, ornamentation aud vari-
colors of the huge dens and cars of
state are so arranged as to blend in
harmony or to create striking and
effective contrasts to the artistic
eye. Among the notable features
in the thirty sections into which the
parade is divided, characteristic re-
presentations all the most noted
military organizations in the world,
in their national uniform, properly
accoutred and mounted on magni-
ficent war horses; a military convoy
in the Punjaub, with its FOUNDER
GUS elephants, drawing great, lum-
bering cannons and bearing East
Indian sharpshooters in their oscil-
lating howdahs, together with
guides, native soldiers and ali the
impediments of an Indo-British
army on the march, a blood-quick-
ening reproduction of the Derby
day meet, with huge tally-hos,
slender spiders, pretty T-carts,
blooded racing stock, Londons So
ciety leaders, jockeys, touts and
other characteristic features of
English racing lite; brilliant pic
ture of Roman and Grecian spendor,
as pictured in the great spectacles
of Rome and Athens, together with
the Olympian games and chario-
teering of the historic DAYS of Au-
gustus; caraYan crossing the
desert: complete children's pa
rade, with pony chariots, tiny tab
leaux, miniature cages and other
novel effects delightful to the child
ish sense; 10 bands of music, over a
hundred dens, cages and tabuleaux
cars, and many other unique repre-
sentations. each presented complete
in its indiyidual section, and COM
prising in their entirety the most
bewilderingly beautiful and effec-
tive street display ever conceived or
successfully organized. 1t is this
wonderful new and noyel procession
that will inaugurate circus day in
Texarkana the coming Tuesday,
October %.

Three State Conventions have me
and concluded their llb0rS, and have
presented to the people three tickets
from which the voters may select the
officers who will administer the affairs
of the State for the next four years
succeeding January 1890. While the
Journal does not wish to question the
purpose or ability of any of the gentle
men named on the other tickets, ii be
lieves that the nominees for Congress
and State officials made by the Silver
Party State Convention, will best sub
serve the interests of Nevada and her
people. at this time and under present
conditions.

place hunters, extravaganza, mls1nan-

showing the management of State at
fairs for the last four years are ON
pared with those Of the Republican of
fcials for the proceeding four years
the taxpayers must admit that the

Silver party officials and as far as
place hunting is concerned, judging
from the results OF the last three days
