the only big circus that will visit this
section of the state this season is the
Great Wallace Show, which will be in
Montpelier on Saturday, June 6.
Referring to this show the Daily
Telegram, of Ashland, Pa, says
The best circus that ever visited
Ashland. That was the general ver-
dict of the people who attended the
Wallace show yesterday afternoon and
evening, and it was an opinion that
was deserved. Many of the principal
features were entirely new, and the
trapeze work, and the performance of
the Nelson family, land scores of other
high.claSs people were irst-class in
every particular. The hippodrome
and racing events were close and cx-
citing, and were watched with breath
less interest, and some of the audience
cheering to their feet.
