CIRCUS AT THE UNIVERSITY.
Large AssembIaee Witness Novel Per-
formanoes.

The. largest assemblage that ever at
tended university function was present
at the university armory last evening to
witness the first annual circus and me-
nagerie given by the department of phys
ical culture of the university. Every seat
IN the big auditorium was occupied. and
before the performance began standing
room was at a premium.
The afternoon performance likewise
drew out large and enthusiastic crowd.
and the promoters of the venture have
decided to repeat the performance to-
morrow night. half Of the proceeds to go
to the committee having in charge the
raising of funds for the Scandinavian fam
Inc sufferers. The entire bill will be re-
peated tomorrow evening, and several new
features will be introduced, so that those
who were unable to attend either of the
performances yesterday will have an OPP
portunity at that time will not miss any
Of the big show.
The Idea of a university circus and me-
nagerie originated with DR.. Cooke, the
director of physical culture at the "U,"
he being aided in carrying out the idea by
his assistants in the department Dr. Lit
zenberger, F. R. Seweitzer and E. B. John
son. The proceeds of the two perform
ances will be used to defray the expenses
OF Of the track team which will be sent to
Champaign. Ill, to compete in the West
ern intercollegiate track meet in June.
The menagerie contained all the animals
to be found IN an up-to-date zoo, besides
many others which were exhibited for the
first time yesterday. The freaks, which
We're the contributions of the various lit
erary societies, would do justice to a first
class museum, and the side shows in
which they were exhibited was constant
ly thronged with spectators.
One Of the best numbers on the pro-
gramme was the work of the strong mems
class in their pyramid building. No true
circus would be complete without the use
of gunpowder, so that it was left to the
junior mining element to provide this ele-
ment of the show. Armed with pistols
and rifles they acted the role of Buffalo
Bill and rescued the stage coach which
had fallen into the hands Of the In
dams.
The flying Zenos, a trio of one-legged
trapeze artists, concluded the perform
ance with daring feats and astonished the
spectators with their clever work. At
the close of the regular performance
concert was given, the numbers being
provided by the university glee and man.
dolin clubs. band and soloists. All dur
ing the performance the audience was
and the peanut and pink lemonade Vends
ors did a rushing business, despite the
frigid condition Of the atmosphere.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL,
Few People Know How Useful II Ia In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfect-
ant and purifier In nature, but few real
iZe its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more you
take of 1t the better; 1t is not a drug et
all, but simply absorbs the gases and i'm
purities always present in the stomach
and inteSttneS. and carries them OUT of
the system.
Charcoal, sweetens the breath after
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectuaIIy clears and irnprovaa
the complexion. 1t whitens the teeth and
safe cathartic
It absorbs the injurious gases which COL
lect in the stomach and bowels; 1t disin-
fects the stomach and bowels; It disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the poi-
son of catalrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably, the best char
coal and the rnost for the money is in
Stuart's Absorbent LoZenges: they are
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal and other harmless antiseptics
in ia let form or rather in the form Of
large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the char
coal being mixed with honey.
The daily use Of these lozenges VIII soon
tell in much improved condition of fhe
general health, better complexion sweet
er breath and purer blood and the beauty
of 1t is that no possible harm can result
from their continued use, but on the con-
tfaTy. great benefit.
Buffalo physician. in speaking OF the
benefits Of charcoal, says: IT advise Stu
arts Absorbent Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas In stomach and bow
els. and to clear the complexion and puri-
fly the breath. mouth and throat; l also
believe the liver is greatly benefited by
the daily use OF them; they cost but twen-
ty-five cents box at drug stores. and al
though in some sense a patent prepara-
ton, yet | believe I get more and bettcr

kMES' WIFE TO
Be PRESS AGENT
Mrs. Ames and Attorney
Make Effort to Prove Him
a Victim of Others.

Mrs. A. A. Ames, wife Of the ex-
mayor Of Minneapolis, has taken ac-
tive charge of a campaign of educa-
ton with headquarters at Hancock, N.
H, by means of which she hopes to
convince the people Of Minneapolis that
Mayor Ames is more sinned against
than SHINING, and thereby to indu7
ence public sentiment against his be-
ing returned to Minneapolis in his
present state Of health.
United States District Attorney
Hamblett defending Ames insists that
Ames is not insane. The district at
torney is understood to have written
Ames' friends in this city that the ex-
mayors brain is perfectly clear at this
time, that the eX-mayor's manner OF
life during recent months has been
such as to restore his mental faculties
to nearly their original acuteness, and
that he is dying Of cancer of the liver.
A publicity campaign has been start
ed for the purpose of showing Ames'
physical unf1tness for a long Journey.
1t is proposed to educate Minneapolis
to accept the belief that Ames is more
sinned against than SHINING.
Mrs. Ames appears to be the inspir-
taken. Attorney Hamblett, acting for
Ames, is in constant conference with
Mrs. Ames. She is a remarkably clear
headed and determined woman. Her
mind is concentrated on the prevention
of Ames' removal to Minneapolis. She
is working every wire within her con-
troll to gain this end.
Under Mrs. Ames management 1t
hP6T1 hot Ty. che
on Monday next meet representatives
of New York and Boston papers to
whom he will explain the measures he
took to prevent grating in Mime
apolls and the manner in which the
famous Conspiracy" which has been
the keynote Of his defense from the
beginning, came to be formed.
1t is understood that Irwin A. Gard
ner will be denounced as an archcon-
Epirator, who, with police captains and
other officials of the force, including
some who are now in jail and another
who is dead, formed a plan to keep
Anes in the dark concerning what was
actually going on in the police depart
ment.
In following this line Of defense the
ex-mayor will necessarily have to in
clude among the renegades whom he
charges with having deceived him, his
own brother Frederick w. Ames, at
that time superintendent of police.
DR.. Ames has given out the state
ment that he believes he is dying,
and Attorney Hamblett also issues a
statement that Ames cannot live two
months. The ex-mayor is therefore de-
termined that his last conscious effort
shall be to vindicate himself before
the American public, and especially
that portion Of 1t which is familiar
with the career Of A. A. Ames. It is
understood that in his statement to
the press on Monday DR.. Ames will
combat and contradict the statements
