Not long ago there was an indictment
found against Nolnnd for adultery with
the wife Of Hile. The trial on this
charge resulted in the acquittni Of No
land, and the general impression was
that the scheme had been blnck-mail,
as there was a damage suit also
brought by lille against holland for
alternating his wife's affections. The
acquittal of Noland quashed the dam
age suit. Hlle and his wife parted, but
they are now living together again.
They were going to remove from St.
Mary's to-day to Whiskey Run, where
Htle was employed as a pumper on an
oil lease. Before going HE expressed
his intention OF killing NOlGnd, with the
result of being killed himself. The sym+
patlly Of the community is all with Mo-

in self defense.

That this announcement will meet with
general favor there Is no doubt. The
show came to Seattle last year. practi-
cally unknown, and made one OF the
greatest hits ever made by circus on
the Coast. The show was mammoth In
its proportions II was clean In its meth

up-to-date 1t drew enormous crowds
and was thoroughly worthy of the great
reception II received.
This year. II is declared, the show ia
bigger and better than ever. Many new
features have been added and the mem
agerie has been greatly enlarged. All this
should insure another big engagement.
and there IL little doubt that circus day
this year will equal or surpass that OF
