1t is not at all surprising that Worm
wood and his trained animals appearing
at the Garrick this week is a feature OF
great interest for the little folks. The
act is probably the most remarkable
one of its kind before the public. A
child may care little or nothing for the
perfectly trained horse, no matter how
intelligent the horse may be, but a bear
or monkey always attracts. Worm
wood has a trained bear that is at
tracting extraordinary attention wher-
ever it appears, and during it's recent
engagement at Dreamland. Conoy Is
land, the bear was the chief centre OF
interest. In addition there are hall
hundred or more monkeys and dogs
who do all sorts of laughable stunts
and keep the children Interested ant
delighted from first to last. Every chill,
In town should see Wormwood's ami
mails at the Garrick this week.

CANNON ON THE ISSUES
Speaker of Congress Addressed Mass
Meeting at Camden, N. ].
SCORES DEMOCRATIC ARGUMENT

Says They Object to Manner In Which
Panama Canal Route Was Secured,
But Arc Willing to Accept the Stolen
Goods.
Philadelphia. Oct 26.-Speaker Can
non, of the national house Of represen-
tatives. was the guest of honor at a
luncheon given by prominent Repub-
licans Of this vicinitTsat the Union
League. and later crossed the Delaware
river to Camden. n j.. where he ad-
dressed q large mass meeting. Speaker
Cannon's party was met at the Penn
sylyania railroad station here by Con-
gressman Loudcnslager, of New Jer-
sey. and J. Hampton Moore. president
Of the Natiolel League Of Republican
Clubs. Among those at the luncheon
was Edwin c.. Stokes, Republican
nominee for governor Of Now Jersey. a..
The meeting in Camden was held
in the Camden theatre, which was
crowded to its capacity. Mr. Cannon.
IN his speech, said:
"Our Democratic opponents object
to the manner in which our party Sc
cured the Panama canal route, though
they admit that they are willing to ac-
cept the stolen goods. If they are cor
rect, then | say that / would rather be
a thief, for that takes courage. than
to be concealer of the goods after
stolen.
Democrats point to strikes of the
last few years, and assume to be hor-
ror-stricken. Strikes result from a
quarrel over the division Of profits.
There have been few strikes during
Democratic administrations because
the profits were too small"
Speaking on the tariff question, Mr..
Cannon said that for the last 4S years,
except for the four years under the
last Cleveland administration. the
people. from an economic standpoint,
have worked out their salvation by the
system of protection. The Republican
party. he said. is ready to be Judged
by results. and the Democrats must be
judged by the same method
with regard to the charges of Re
publican extravaganza, Spea'.er Can
non said:
I'VE plead guilty to keeping house
in a liberal way. How has money been
spent? A great deal of It has gone TO
better the rivers and harbors and for
coast Notifications We have so for
tilted the coasts that even the mug
wumps Of Boston need not fear an at
tack from the sea. as they did few
years ago when in their terror they
moved many of their goods inland.
Money has been spent to make an
other such disaster as Galveston had
a few years ago an impossibility. And
yet, in spite of such expenditures. the
Republican party has been able to
clear away $l72,OOO,0OO for which Mr.
Cleveland mortgagcd the country dur
/ ing his administration"

PARKER is COMING.

A big train with the Parker spe-
cial will arrive in Reunion Park
Sunday afternoon. There will be a
large crowd out to see the big train
to see for themselves if it was real
ly as large as reports had told
them. No one will be disappointed.
The train will come direct from
Springfield where the big Parker
Amusement Company exhited last
week. The loading will not be
started until after midnight on
Saturday and il is at once apparent
that there will be some hard work
accomplished to get the big organ
ization packed up and loaded and
here by Sunday noon. The train
will come in two sections. The
long cars have the appearance of a
big circus.
After the arrival of the train the
unloading will be at once COM
menced. The grounds have been
measured and laid out by advance
representatives of the organization
and there will be no confusion, spite
of the fact that there was much to
do. Every employe knows just
what to do. Traction engines and
several teams will be used to trans
fer the paraphernalia and animals
from the cars to the carnival
grounds.
The company carries the engines
and their own horses for this pur-
pose. Everything transported in
big wagons and these wagons are
built so as to open up and form the
fronts of the various shows. This
makes the unloading as systema-
tic as circus.
The carnival will be open in full
blast by Monday morning and
everything will be in readiness for
the biggest crowds ever seen in Re-
urion Park. The Parker Amuse-
ment Company differs from all
others in it's plan of organization.
All the shows and their equipment
belong TO the the company which
employs 9 manager for each. In
this way everything IL conducted
