comprehend the immensely of the

line and forethought required to vic
tual and care for the vast army mus
tered, is astonishing"
The cost of introducing these living
pictures of Western and international
history is enormous. Undoubtedly to
a great many people the above para
graph savors strongly Of egotism, but
the fact is that it happens to be an ex-
tract from fve-column editorial arti-
Gle in the sedate and Unconditional New

iteration of what has been penned and
said thousand times, or more. More
over, since it was written the grandly
original and realistic enterprise of
which 1T speaks has been notably
changed and enlarged. and now pre-
sents a greater number of men and
horses than any other ever had.
Included in this years entertainment
is number of selected men from both
the English and Boer armies, platoon
Of Canadian mounted rifles and North
west mounted police, corps of the
United States life saving service, with
