HAS SPLENDID SHOW
Carnival This Week is a Complete
Success.

Now that the EIks street fair is draw
ing to close, this being the last day,
Americas can look back upon a week
of unalloyed pleasure, to which
the shows of the Cincinnati Carnival
Co. have contributed no little.
They pleased Americas and are in
themselves most excellent.
Manager Sturgis, a veteran show
man and most courteous and agreeable
gentleman, promised the Elks clean
and good list of attractions, aud his
promised is fulfilled.
Until the shows were seen by the
people here there was some little oppo-
sition to the carnival. but this was dis
sipated when the people viewed the
score of fine attractions and saw that
every one was clean and entertaining.
And this can truly be said of every
show in the midway here.
The very best people of Americas,
including ministers, their wives and
children, have enjoyed the perform.
q ices aud not one word of criticism
has been heard against the shows.
The electric theatre, the hall of fame,
Thelma, Lunette, plantation Ministries,
the trained dog show, the monster
snakes, the turtle boy, the snake eater,
the Streets of India, Stanley the high
diver, Pearl and dozen others make
up the splendid aggregation of the Gin
cinnatI Carnival Company.
Manager Sturgis takes his attrac.
tions to Tuskegee, Ala. next week, and
the Tlmes-Recorder can heartily COM
mend this company to the good people
OF that city, assuring them that it is
first class in every respect.
