There's going to be circus
In our town today.
You'd better come and see the run
And watch the monkeys play.
There's going to be an elephant
And great big kangaroo.
A lion that roars-weli. Just like mad
And striped zebra too.
There's going to be a fellcr
Found standing on his head
And 6erce old growing tiger
Just waiting to be fed.
There's going to be great big tent
And mighty enc parade;
There's going to be some gingerbread
And perhaps some lemonade.
There's going to he an or-kes-try.
With flute and drum and horn.
I'll bet you never heard the like
Since ever you were born.
We're all Of US 10 be the band,

There's Minnie. George and Winifred
And Snip, the dog. and me.

New York, Nov. 4-When the trial
Of Roland &. Molineux for the murder
Of Mrs. Katherine ]. Adams is resumed
Wednesday morning, counsel for the
defense will bring witnesses whose
testimony, they believe, will effectually
demonstrate the innocence Of the ac-
cused man. These witnesses, 1t Is as
serted, comprise woman who will
swear she saw man, not Molfneux.
mail the package Of poisoned rbromo
settler to Harry s. Cornish and a de-
tective who saw the purchaser of the
silver bottle holder and will swear posi-
lively it was not the prisoner. In add.
ton the defense will bring handwriting
experts who will swear that Molineux
did not write the address on the poison
package and was not the author of the
famous Barnet" and Cornish" letters.
The story told by the mysterious wo-
man, the wife, it is claimed, of Brook
Ign policeman, IL she is placed ON the
stand, may not only free MOlineux, but
cause the Indictment of another man
for the murder of Mrs. Adams.
The extraordinary but partly corrob-
grated tale Is to the effect that on Dec.
%, 1898, she had been doing some shop
ping and in the afternoon went to the
general postoffice to mail package to
a friend in the west. Because of
crowd she was forced to wait some
time. In the line Immediately In front
of her stood man carrying small
package. She saw the address. and it
read, she says, "Mr. Harry Cornish,
KnickerbOcker Athletic Club, Madison
Avenue and Forty fourth Street, New
York"
Told story to Husband.
Afterward. when the papers were
filled with the story of the murder she
recalled the incident and told her hus-
band. The family physician was called
into conference. He advised them to
20 to the district attorney. Fearing
she might be called as a witness. she
delayed, but finally went to the office
of Molineux's attorneys and told her
remarkable story. Investigation Of
her statements brought the wrapper
ON the package she had mailed. 1t
was postmarked with day and hour
identical with the poisoned package.
The woman was taken to the court
room, where she declared firmly that
the prisoner was not the man she had
seen, but she is said to have picked
out another as the one who mailed the
package As no defense was made i'll
the first trial, she was not called as r
witness.
The case will probably go to the Jury
next Saturday. The defense is con-
| tident Of acquittal.
A grewsome phase of the situation is

ing done ia sporting circles on the re-

"When Forbes wakened from his

with powder, his eyes red and in

and dust; he was dreadful picture.
He had been compelled to assist the
communists In defending triangular
space upon which three detachments
of the Versailles troops were firing,
and had actually taught the citizens
how to build barricade."
BY aid of dummy dispatches ad-
dressed to Lord Granville and the
queen, Forbes escaped from This
