THE PASSING OF VICTORIA.
tBy Edwin Mark ham. !

Homage and hush of heart belong
to Death,
When at the door the Dread One

The still withdrawal of that inward
Thing
That gives the shapen clay the

Sends on all hearts the ancient won

And, with no heralds telling her re.
Has gone the august unattended
way
Gone down the way where, all OF
earth recedes,
Leaving behind fragrance Of good
deeds,
A wreath of memories forever green
Above her name, mother and friend
and Queen.
Whatever fortune came to shape

She cnrried in her heart the Good

Andsurely, too, since that far fra
CANT hour,
When first the boughs of Eden broke
to flower,
Nothing has shined more kfngly
than kind deeds.
10, out of these the Golden Heaven
proceeds!
The memory of good deeds will ever
stay
A lamp to light us on the darkened
way,
A music to the ear on clamoring
street,
A cooling well amid the monday
heat,
A scent Of green boughs blown
through narrow walls,
A feel of rest when quiet evening
falls.
The kindly deed will live In memory
When London, in far centuries
shall be
AS stu us Babylon and both a
When London dead shall be some
poets theme.
When all her tombs and towers shall
be fight
OF ghostly arches in the noiseless
night
Then as some bard on legends borne
along
Shall build her faded glories into
song,
Some Homer sing her darings and de-
fcats,
Filling with crowds again the grass
grown streets,
Placing dead kings back on their
crumbled seats
There suddenly will start into his

ANEW CIRCUS IDEA.
Modern Comforts introduced by Ring
ling Bros. in Their Big Show.

All the comforts and conveniences of
a great modern theater are at the conn
mand OF the patrons of Ringling Bro
Tiers Circus, the famous big show
that is to exhibit in Topeka. Tuesday,
August G.
The idea is SO novel. and has been
carried out SO successfully, that 1t de-
serves to be recorded as one of the
greatest innovations ever introduced
by a circus management The nav sys-
tenn begins with the ticket wagon, and
is carried through every department of
the show. Instead of q crowded ticket
wagon, with limited facilities for hand
ling the great crowds desiring to pur-
chase tickets, there are now large aid
commodious ticket offices, with = Dozen
compartments, from each OF which tick
cts are sold. This entirely does sway
with the unpleasant crush and excite
ment that was unavoidable under the
old system, while, to still further con-
tribute to the comfort of the public,
uniformed guards are placed at con-
venient points to direct the crowd and
to furnish information. NotWitkstand-
ing these. complete arrangements for
conveniently and expeditiously selling
tickets on the show grounds, there is
always a downtown ticket office. the 10
cation of which is advertised in the 10
cal newspapers, where admission tick
procured at exactly the same price as
on the exhibition grounds. Another
innovation is the new system of en-
frances a. the main door. Ins7ead of a
single entrance there are now a half
dozen, so that the largest crowd can ne
handled without discomfort or tosrIing
In the menagerie the passa geway be-
tween the central exhibitional space
and the outer row of cages has been
broadened into a wide esplanade, at
fording room for a multitude to pass
or to linger at will. Each cage has its
uniform ed attendant. and every ques-
ton IL courteously and intelligently
answered These are things that all
can commend, but ladies especially will
appreciate the commodious dressing
veniently placed for their exclusive
use. These rooms are furnished with
handsome marble lavatories. hot and
cold water and an abundant supply
of clean towels. Similar accomn oda-
lions have been provided for the men
in another part of the menagerfe pa
vilion. What this means to tired Wo-
men and children, and even to men,
can readily be appreciated In the
main hfppodrome tent an entire new
system of seating has been fnaugu-
rated. adding greatly to the comfort
and pleasure of the public With all
these modern comforts and accessories
in conjunction with the greatest circus
performance ever given in America. 1t
is not surprising that Ringing Bros
circus should be universally recognized
as the worlds greatest and most pro-
gressive shows. The only living giraffe
