Brought to Carbondale by the En-
terprising Young Men Who Have
This Work in Hand-What Can Be
Said of Their Entertainers.

Of some of the entertainers that are
certain to appear during the course.
The young men have sought the
Rrockway Entertainment bureau, which
has unmistakably the finest entertain

ing before the American people. Among
these may be mentioned Elias Day, the
impersonator, whose work has been
stamped with the mark of highest ap-
proval by scores of branches of the
Young Mems Christian association,
under whose auspices he has appeared.
His work is refined, refreshingly free
of caricature or buffoonery and he
makes you laugh or he pleases you by
his effort, because he is truly natural
and presents characters as you see
them about you.
Marc, the magician, is an entertainer
finement. He is without a peer in his
line, and anybody who doubts this
statement can find hundreds in Scran-
ton who will readily refute any con-
trary statement, for Marc appeared in
the BroCkway course at the LyCeum
theatre last season, and there was no
greater favorite than he proved HIM

pecially desired in the long series
leading up to the modern horse.
The skulls are reported to be the best
that have thus far been found, and
this discovery is an auspicious opening
to this special series of explorations.
Protohippus belongs to the Pliocene,
and is believed to be the immediate
ancestor of the true horse. Whereas,
Hipparton, the PlioCene horse of
Europe is now found to be not the
ancestral horse but representative of
a side line. All recent researches go
to prove that the phylum of true horses
belongs to North America.
