state were compelled to borrow money.
Up to 1894 they had borrowed 100000 10

VILLAGES A GOOD CIRCUS.
The Threatening Weather Cut Down
the Afternoon Attendance, but the
Night Crowd Was Large, and
Everybody Was Well Pleased With

the Show.
Wallace's circus came TO town yester.
day and gave afternoon and evening
performances at the Bridge park on the
Island. The threatening weather Gu.
dowE the afternoon attendance to q
considerable degree, but In the evening
the big tent was crowded. In the morn.
Ing u fine street parade was given. and
In fact compared well with cIrcuses
that make more extravagant claims.
One OF the most pleasing features Of
this circus is the grand concor. by a
band OF twenty-elght pieces as n pre-
lude to the entertainment proper. being
given during the period when the crowd
is arriving. This is q novel innovation
and one worth copying by other circus
managers. The Nelson family OF aero.
bats made decided hit, as did the
trained pigs. the Stirks in bicycle and
skating specialties. the statuary artists,
the Livinsstons in aerial work, the
Sisters Vortex on the trapeze-and In
fact every number on the programme.
