the shows. They will be open
every evening this week.
The Rock Hill Journal refers
to this carnival in the following
language: The street fair and
carnival which has been here
all the week is furnishing
amusement for everybody. 1t
is being well patronized by our
people and is deserving of this
patronage, for it is the best col
lection Of shows thet has ever
visited our city. Good order
prevails under the tents and on
the grounds and there is not a
single Objectionable feature
about the entire show. The
proprietors have excluded all
gamblers, thieves, ETC., which
generally follow such shows.
Junette, the flying woman,
who floats about in the air as
light as feather without any
apparent support, is simply
marvellous and worth the price
Of admission. The mysteries Of
India is another wonderful sight
worth seeing Walking canes,
swords, bayonets, ETC., are
swallowed by a man and wo-
man. The woman also swal
lows an electric light, all done
with apparently as much ease
as the ordinary person swallows
food Boscoe, who eats snakes
alive, the old plantation, the
electric dance are all very inter
esting and amusing.

is attributed to the prevalence OF 1ntiu-
