R.NGLING BROS GREAT SHOW.
This Stupend0us Amusement Institu-
ton to Exhibit in RitzyiIle.

Ringing Bros popular Worlds
city Tuesday morning, Aug. 2S, Mt
IL O'Clock. 1t is needless to say that
this will be an amusement event of
the first Importance. Ringing Bros
circus is not only the largest arenic
institution in the whole world, but it
is also the most colossal travelling ex-
hibition ever organized either in
ancient or modern times. In novel
ty, in up-to-date uniqueness, in the
sumptousness of its displays, in the
beauty of its matchless horses, in the
number of its hIgh-priced performers,
in the wealth of its pageantry and in
the generosity OF everything that
goes to make up a superlatively great
exhibition, it has no. equal on earth.
Other shows have endeavored to
initiate it, but never with success. 1t
has an individuality all its own-a dis
Effectiveness that gives it a recognized
character for originality all over the
land. IL has repeatedly been said and
with truth that. Ringing Brothers
can showmen, but IS school which
has no successful pupils. TO an
nounce the coming of this great show
is sufficient to insure public attention.
The pictured presentment of the five
famous Ringing Brothers upon an
advertisement is an absolute guaran-
tee Of perfection in arenic amuse-
ment. Unlike other circus managers
Ringing Brothers are never content
to rest upon their laurels. Tie
present season has witnessed a notable
increase in the magnitude of the
show as well AS Il most unprecedent-
ed gathering OF American and old.
world novelties. The three Iings,
double stages, aerial spaces and huge
ourth-mile track are fairly alive with
diverting performances, OF a character
never before seen with any arenIc
exhibition. The most thrilling mid
air exploits, the most graceful of lady
and gentlemen riders, the most aston.
ishingly expert acrobats, vie in inter-
est with the most sensational and
wonder-creating exhibitions of train
ed animal intelligence. Surely the
world has never seen anything to COM
pare with the marvellous Lockbart
elephant actors, Marchand's pugil.
istic proboscidians Of Herr Souder's
elephant brass band. Amy one OF
these newly-imported great features
would be sufficient to stamp show
with merit and distinction. Equally
remarkable is OBrien's sixty-one
horse act-over three-score high-bred
equines all performing in one ring at
one time, under the direction Of a
single trainer. a superb menagerie
and a most exciting reproduction OF
the exhilerating sports and racing
contests of imperial Rome are inn
portant incidents of the great show.

which inaugurates circus day is the
most gorgeously Respondent gratuit-
Gus display ever given in any land
