THE WRATH OF AFRIC.


That peculiar circus-smell--the blended
exhalations of animals, bruised grass, fresh
ly turned earth and sawdust, so sweet to
the nostril Of the small boy--was present
in even the dressing tent With it, how
ever, we're mingled the more pungent odors
of liniments and face paints; and occasion
ally the acrid fumes Of burnt hair driited
from booth where some female bareback
rider or trapezist was making an overhasty
toilet. From the main tent came the
dulIed blare of bands, the crack of nng-
masters whips the trumpeting Of perform
ing elephants, cries Of vendor, aud ever
aud anon the rumbling applause Of the
multitude.
The dressing tent itself hummed like
beehive. Through the wide, eurtained
doorway leading to the biz tent there
flowed, in opposite directions, two streams
of painted, powdered, bedizened humanity,
The incoming performers were either flush
ed with triumph or dropping with fatigue
the outgoing ones were igh-struBg and
expectant or coldly confident. The heat
in the stuffy dressing rooms was certainly
fierce. aad the circus-folk remained inside
no longer than their toilets required. Not
so long, indeed, some worthy people might
have thought, as here and there sweat
ing ''artist popped through eurtained
aperture into the cooler air outside, and
complacently gave his trunks final hitch;
or. if it beypened to be a woman, made
snug her half f-laced bodice.
Not far from the entrance to the main
tent three clowns sat on IA trunk, awaiting
their call. Their eyes shown through gro
tesaue circles of white paint with fairly
sinister glitter, seen thus close at hand,
and made them look more like demons than
boobies. On the shoulder of one Of these
men-her husband apparently-leaned
the Human Fly, shapely young woman
in lavender tights, swinging by strap the
strangely soled shoes in which she was soon
to take her daring head down walk.

snaky thing writhed on the ground, as If

After making a thorough investiga
ton of the prevailing condition of at
fairs in the Philippine islands during
the last year, the inspector general OF
the army, in his report, pays a high
tribute to the courage and kindness
with which military operations have
been carried on. The highest tribute
is also paid to the celebrated Hostel

over this broad land, because of its
reliability in cases of sick headacre,
vomiting. heartburn. Indigestion. dys.
