few people only had vague idea Of

rade had passed, as horses after horses
and carriage after carriage, and den
after den passed did they fully grasp

tracks, doubling back on Washington
ave. to Poplar ST., and ended by cir
cling the Poplar Walnut st. business
block. The streets of the city were
thronged with people, and to say that
they enjoyed the parade expresses 1t
but very mildly. In the parade were
wild and ferocious animals, (dogs in
chicken coops), with their. fearless
trainers; every curiosity imaginable;
rough riders; Squating Bull, the In
dian chief, and his followers; chariot
racers in true Roman attire In the
city's carts; clowns and Rueben's ga
lore; Rube band that marched to
waltz time; free exhibition announc-
ers; Somers First Regiment Band in
regulation uniform; Prof. Bartholo-
news trained horses; thS finest and |
most costly steam caliiole that was
ever on parade. Prof Jas. Lawler, the /
"organist. told us on the side that his
renditions on this cailiope wonld have
been, to use his own words, "simply |
could he have only Sc

is required to get up the best steam.
And, too, our people saw in this parade

IMPROVEMENTS IN
THE NEWMAN HOTEL.

Col. I. A. Newman, who recently
went to Chicago to purchase furnish.
ings for his hotel is to be compliment.
ed over his selections and the way the
hotel is overhau!ed and furnished.
The floors of every hall is covered
with beautiful carpets, while the walls
have been tastefully papered in rich
colors, and the Wood work painted to
match
There is not room In the hotel but
what the floor is covered with new
mating, and contains new iron beds,
soft cotton mattresses and new bed
clothes. In each room the paper is of
different shade or design, and with
their white, downy beds, centre table
and other bedroom furniture, presents
an inviting appearance. Hotels in no
city could have no more comfortabl
rooms for their guests.
The cafe of the hotel, which started
only year ago, has grown so in popu-
arity that Col Newman has moved
the counters back and put in small ta-
bles for the accommodation Of his
guests. and theatre parties, which he
serves nearly every night perform
ance is at the opera house. He ex-
poets in short time to use the entire
room for the restaurant and cafe. The
choicest the market affords constitutes
his orders. and whether prices are up
or not you pay the same price and no
red tickets are found at your plate with
an extra charge because of the rise of
meats and vegetables, as is done in
restaurants of the East.
Mr.. viii Newman assists Ills father
mostly in the management of the ho-
tel. He has made himself popular like
his father with all the travelling men
by his many fayors and courtesies.
Nothing is too hard for hlln to do for

GREENVILLE'S
CITY ENGINEER.


We agree with the Times in the
need of a city engineer. But in max
ing the selection, if IL is to be OF any
service to the city, the council must
get beyond personal favoritism or pre-
iudice and select man who will do
his duty thoroughly, intelligently and
impartially. The salary should be
sufficient to justify man to fill these
requirements to accept the Office,
Our system Of drainage will become Of
great importance on account Of the
sewerage, and as help to its beneh-
cent influence, If Eian Of vim, vigor
and good sense be selected for city en-

Macaroni, the queen Of bareback

to mention, we're very laughahle and
well executed This act closed the cir.
ems performance, after which Prof.
Bartholomew introduced his wonderful
trick horses. The wonderful inteilf4
gence displayed by his horses would
hardly be believed by one who did not
see their actings.
The whole circus was under the
management Of Mr.. w. Z. Haskell, Of
St. Louis, who has successfully put on
the burlesque In many cities for the
different Elk lodges. He came to our
city we'll recommended, and our local
lodge adds good, strong endorsements
to his already large number Of them.
The entertainment was given for a
worthy purpose and the Elks feel graf
flied with their success. They GER
tainly deserve great credit.
Mr.. vii. Donnelley, advance, and
one OF the proprietors OF the Barlow
Minstrel Co., took charge Of the ticket

nelly has many warm friends in this
city by whom he was given an open

many friends among the ladies' as well
as the men. While in the city he was
