retold, there is but one great cir
Gus which is in every particular and
detail the greatest and grandest of
the entire world S circuses and that
is the Lemen Brothers worlds mon
ster shows, which is coming to
Rapid City on Wednesday May 18th,
in all it's regal magnificence, It's un-
rivaled splendor, its unequaled num-
bers and vast proportions. Under
the greatest city of snow white
tents ever erected on any grounds
will be seen fully one hundred
count them fully one hundred ex-
allied stars, who will give one hun
dred and fifty superior and supreme
acts, too numerous to classify, too
many to name, too multifarious to
describe. Bareback riding, hurd-
ling, trick fancy and manege riding,
aerial acts, grand gymnas tics, tum-
bling, vaulting, leaping, athletic and
controton feats, Juggling, equili
bristic pole balancing, breaking, lad
der, and other acts. Unique, state
ly, astounding, aerial, stage and
arenic performances, not seen else
where. Many of them by foreign
artists, plenty of them by home
artists. Remember the date, and
do not miss the big show.

Big Suit for Damages.

Deadwood, S. D., May 6.-This
week suit for fraud was filed in the
circuit court at Waukegan, ILL.,, by
B. A. Dunn & Sons against the
DeKay Brothers for $25, 900 dam
ages. Last fall Dunn & Sons trad
ed the Waukegan Daily Register
for the Whitewood Plaindealer and
the Belle Fourche Bee, two weekly
papers devoted to the stock business.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
the DeKay Brothers have grossly
mlsrepresented the true value of
their papers here in the Hills, max
ing too large estimates of the cir
culation, advertising patronage and
the general standing. The case will
be tried in the October term of
court.

at the Worlds Fair in 1893 The
streets of Cairo, the Turkish
theater, the German village, The
big rock they are all here, and new
attractions are under process OF con-
struction. The midway, with myr-
lads of "Hoochie-koochie" attrac-
tions will play an important part at
the exposition this summer.
Lying off to the south of the mid
way is found the live stock, apairy,
creamery, agricultural machinery
and irrigation exhibits, each having
an immense building of its own.
The state buildings lie west and
north of the court Of honor and 30
states and three territories will be
officially represented, though not all
will occupy separate buildings.
The Nebraska building is very prop
erly the banner one among the state
buildings and the surroundings ale
all that could be desired. Graveled
walks, myriads OF green trees, spout
ing fountains of water surrounded
by lawn which is perfection it.
self, here and there intermingled
with beds of flowers now bursting
into bloom, the reader can imagine
that the state buildings are sur
ronded with those things which will
make the sightseer remember the
spot as one of almost unquall-
ed beauty. Little signs of keep
off the grass greet the eye on every
hand-you must stay on the walk.

and a score of other fakes, which
always attend enterprises Of this
character It will take at least a
week to take in everything at the
exposition and do the job up right.
The show will be just four times as
large as the average man who has
not yet paid the site visit thinks
So much to the credit of Omaha,
Nebraska and the great Trans Mis-
sissippi region.
We cannot go into detail in giving
a description of each building and
the exhibits it contains, but the
famous white city, at the worlds
fair did not surpass this court of
honor in grandeur and magnificence
Many of the party of inspection who
had visited the Columbian exposi-
ton at Chicago in 1893 stated that
iE size only did the world s fair
overshadow this enterprise and that
in beauty of architecture this ex-
position will far outclass the one at
Chicago. At least a dozen foreign
governments have taken space in the
buildings and their exhibits are now
being placed in position. No pen
picture which might be given would
in any way convey to the reader the
grandeur and extent of this enter
prise.
