THE MIDWAY
Will Arrive. In Town
Tomorrow.
Two Hundred People Employed
Full Description.

The Big Midway Show will ar
rive in Akron tomorrow morning
about 10 o'clock on its own special
train via the Erie from Middletown,
Ohio, where it has been furnishing
the carnival feature for the Elks'
street fair. The midway moves with
all the system and precision of a
circus. Ten cars are required to
transport the elephants, camels and
other animals, scenery, parapher-
MALTA and the two hundred actors,
performers and attaches. BY sun
down tomorrow evening all will be
in place, the tents for the different
theatres raised and everything in
shape for the grand opening on Mon
day.
The Streets of India will undoubt-
edly meet with the greatest favor of
all the midway attractions. In Day
ton, Columbus, and in fact all the
cities in which the midway has ap-
peared, it has been customary for the
smart set to indulge in midway
parties during the fair, the Streets of
India being the. place of meeting.
From there tour of the theatres is
made lasting until the hour set for
Phillion's appearance upon the
spiral tower. After that comes a
luncheon at a popular cafe or at the
home of the entertainers.
1t really requires several evenings
to fully explain the midway in order
to appreciate it in all its varied
phases. An entire evening can be
spent upon the streets of India, rid
ing the elephants and camels and
witnessing the performance of Has
san Ben Ali's wonderful acrobatic
Arabs and the mysterious magic of
Prince Ishmael, the Hindo magi-
clan.
Another evening can be spent in
simply watching the crowds on the
midway and viewing the free eXhi-
bitiOns given in front of the several
theaters and then the act of the
matchless Philion as he descends the
spiral tower in a fountain of flame.
At least two evenings are required
to properly ''do" the theaters. There
is always something new, strange
and interesting to be seen upon the
midway.
