meat was given by Major Lille to the
Indians for a buffalo dance. The In
dians have been dancing and pow
wowing ever since. They claim the
vast herds of buffalo are coming back
to this country, and many Indians
have notified the white lessees to va
cate their ranches at once, as they
wish to lay the fences low, so the
buffalo viii have full sway of the
country The white people in the re-
mote parts Of the reservation are com

placed mounted guards around his
buffalo sanch, as the Indians are

intend to liberate the herd and per
hapa kill them.
The United States Indian agent at
that point has been notified, and has

A poor complexion is usually the
result Of a torpid liver or irregular
action of the bowels. Unless natures
refuse is carried off it will surely
cause impure blood. Pimples, bolls
and other eruptions follow. This is
natures method of throwing of the
poisons which the bowels failed to
remove. DeWitt's Little Early
Risers are world famous for remedy
ing this condition. They stimulate the
liver and promote regular and healthy
action Of the bowels but never cause
gripping cramps or distress. Safe
pills.

The Circus Departs
But its Memory Lives.

The circus has come and gone but the
boys are still talking about the savage
rhinoceris, the only living giraffe the
performing elephants and the clowns.
There was an exceptionally large num-
ber of these latter this year. In fact
the comic element was given larger
place than in proceeding years and 1t
seemed to take we'll The clown band
was not new but it was amusing. The
comic mule act made every body laugh.
Besi des this was the imitation giraffe,
the clown dance and the funny old man
who misses his jump on the trapeze and
parallel bars.
II 10 easy to say that the show given
by Ringing Bros. yesterday was the
greatest and best ever seen in Tucson.
The menagerie is q complete course in
natural history and is sufficiently out Of
the ordinary to have kept the tent in
which it was contained, packed to the
limit last night up 10 the very moment
OF st&rtibS the snow.
Behind the scenes OF Q big circus like
the Ringling Bros, there is another
show about 40 interesting as that given
TO the public. The equestrian director
has everything and everybody in his
place. 80 the men and animals move
like clock-work. The dressing quarters
are cramped but everything is placed so
as to economic time. Two hours after
the evening performance concludes the
circus 10 loaded on the cars, bound for
the next town where they are to exhibit.
All OF the five Ringing Bros. were
with the show yesterday. Al Ringing
has been in Chicago but he Joined the
circus few days ago.
1t is estimated that about 5000 peo.
pie attended each performance yester-
day. When all the seats are in the
main tent, it will seat 1900 people.
The arena as it was yesterday will seat
about half that number.
The circus. the aide shows and the
concert were all good with the price.
Even the red lemonade and pink pop.
corn tasted good. But the circus ia gone
and Tucson Is not disappointed. 1t
comes bat once q year. and that once
