A GORGEOUS sPEcTAcLE.
RiDgIing Bros New Military Display
Creates Sensation.

A new patriotic military spectacle is
the latest colossal novelty introduced by
the famous Ringing Brothers as a pre-
lude to their unriYalled Worlds Great
est Shows. There is something in
human nature that demands beauty and
light and color, and which finds its
highest qualification in the gIories of
spectacular display. None knew this
better than Cesar Augustus, Alexander
the Great and even Napoleon Bonaparte,
and these great leaders of men and
nations controlled the hearts and won
the loyalty of the people as much by
the magnificence of their public spec
tacles as by the power of their legions.
While partaking in large measure of
the military character of the times, the
Roman and Greek spectacles artistically
modified the glare and panoply Of war
with the sumptuous arts of peace, the
sentiment of a classically poetic age,
the love of luxury and the delight of the
populace for glittering display. In their
new patriotic spectacle Ringling Bros.
have conceived and brought to realiza-
tion display that dazzles while it de-
! lights, that mingles startled wonder
with gratified astonishment, that awak-
ems all that is noblest and best in human
nature through the thleefold intelligence
of the eye, the ear, and the intellect.
The comprehensive and striking title OF
Ringling Brothers new spectacle is

play or the possibilities of gorgeous
ornamentation and brilliancy of apparel.
The display is a magnificent reflex of
the regal splendors of the ancients,
com bined with vivid portraiture, upon
scale of unequalled magnitude, of the
stirring events of the hour. Liberty is
typifed by a series of allegorical
tableaux, in which are tbrillingly pic
tured the genius of American Institu-
tions and the glorious triumphs oi
American arms on land and sea. In
the varied scenes of the spectacle there
are utilized over a thousand characters,

SIeeping Ills Life Away.

"There goes the happiest man in the
borough said a Norristown barber.
pointing out of the window to a little,
elderly man, dressed gayly. who walked
with his eyes fixed complacently on his
new but old fashioned yellow shoes.
THAT fellow continued the barber,
became rich suddenly, after a life of
hard, uninterrupted work. Now that he
has money, he knows of nothing better
TO do than sleep. He sleeps all the time.
and it is running his health. In the morn
ing he comes down to breakfast at his
boarding house. messes with the food a
little, and then, as soon as his bed is
made, skates up stairs for q snooze. AT
dinner lie tries hard to eat, but his appe-
titc is bad. He plays with his food and
blows to the other boarders about the
fine maps he takes while they are work
ing hard. and if they pretend to be en-
vious lie shows that he is delighted. OF
course he sleeps all the afternoon, but at
night. although he denies this, it is well
known that he rests poorly.
Il suppose it is better if you are rich
to ruin your health by sleeping too much
rather than by drinking or dissipating in
the other ways, but just to sleep seems
to me foolish thing to do, because when
you sleep all the time you might as well
be dead."-Philadelphia Record.

A CASE OF STAGE FRIGHT.


''All these graduating exercises and
grandeurs recall it," said the long,
thin man who collects on q. percent
age for half dozen Detroit firms.
I'm a graduate myself. Before l
was out of the high school l was

tory and debate. The old men com
plimented me and freely prophesied
that my voice would soon be heard in
the halls of Congress. One or two Of
the more enthusiastic anticipated the
Presidency for me, and l did not
think them oversanguine.

most Insignificant gesture. The hall
was gayly decorated and crowded. 1t
was the proudest moment of my life
when l bowed before the cheering
audience, the size of which had made
it necessary to throw open the local
opera house.

A HARD KICK,

A family out in West Philadelphia
lately imported a colored boy from
their former home In the wilds of
Western North Carolina, and though
the lad has been in Philadelphia not
yet quite two weeks he has already
learned something he will not soon
forget. 1t was told this way:
OF all the manifold chores that fell
to his lot none gave him half the de-
light of the hose which he was won't
the bit of green in front of the house
and to sprinkle the street. This was
a modern invention which had not
penetrated to his mountain home and
its wonderful possibilities as weapon
against the teasings of the boys in the
neighborhood impressed him greatly.
The other evening he was engaged in
his favorite occupation of sprinkling
the yard. when some urcbin began,
from the other side of the street, to
lombard him with volley of sticks
and stones. Here was an opportunity
not to be lost.
Elevating the nozzle, he directed
the stream point blank at the offend
ers, but, unfortunately, before it
reached the other side of the street it
came in contact with trolley wire,
and in an instant the ebon importa-
ton was executing a series OF back
somersaults that finally landed him
up against the.house.
As lie recovered from the effects of
the electric shock he was heard to
murmur, "Speck dat must er most
broke OATS mules leg, he kicked SO
hard"

GOOD MANNERS.
From the Normal Instructor


Courtesy and consideration for
others are demanded of a gentleman
under all circumstances, and especial
ly in trying situations. Good man
ners show themselves in respect for
women in work and deed; in manly
regards for the feelings Of equals; in
prompt and cheerful submission to
disappointment and in honor, kind
ness, tirmness and justice toward the
helpless. Vigorous health, great
physical strength and the excitement
of competition frequently render men
brusque, uncivil and even boisterous
in their manners. The true athelete,
however, will never lose sight of the
necessity for mistaken good temper
and perfect urbanity and gentleness
of manner, no matter how great the
heat of the strife or the magnitude of
the provocation. 1t is in the critical
moment that the chance is given him
to show whether he is a brute or a
gentleman.

FISHEkMANS LUCK IN ARKANSAS

A Memphis man is telling of an incl
dent which occurred to him last Sun,
day while he was fishing in lake in
Arkansas. II was having good sport"
he says, and had caught string of
fish, which were in the bottom of my
boat. My temperature dropped thirty
degrees in half an hour, and the rain
also dropped hard and fast-just how
hard may be imagined from the fact
that the boat began to fill, not only
from the rain which fell, but also from
the lake water which splashed into it
by the rain dropped on the surface of
the water. The boat filled to the gun
wales, and right before my eyes that
string of fish swan off in perfectly
straight column, leaving me too aston
ished to make any move toward their
recapture.

Tennyson was exceedingly chary
throughout his life of replying to criti-
cism or clearing up obscurities in his
works, but letter of the poet shows that
on occasion he departed from his custom
airy rule. The letter in question was ad-
dressed to Mr.. Edward Campbell Tainsh
in acknowledgment of copy Of his
"Study of the Works of Alfred Tenny-
son." the following lines having been
cited by Mr.. Tainsh as an instance of
mechanical supernaturalism:"
Though family, mcrrily, far and far away,
He heard the pc@ling OF his parish bells,
Tennyson replied: "a friend of mine told
me that he had heard his own parish bells
in the midst of an eastern desert-not
knowing at the time it was Sunday. H: &C.
counted for it to me by stating that there
was n ringing in his ears which his old
associations nodded unconsciously into
the sound he heard. There is nothing
really superna tural, mechanically or 9TH
erwise, in e. AS hearing bells, though
the author most probably did intend the
passage to tell upon the reader mystic
ally"
