The most startling feature of the
show. however. was the manner in
which It was advertised.
A great stand of bills was erected at
the entrance to Cologne Cathedral. The
entrance to the famous belfry OF Bruges
was hidden by twelve-foot stand of
posters.
Special booths. twelve feet high and
fifteen feet long. were built on the side

The famous Castle of Konigsburg

THE CIRCUS IN EUROPE

y 1887, having concluded a brilliant
and successful season in America,
the circus management resolved up
on another trip 10 Europe.
To visit Europe required that the en-
tire railroad equipment Of the show
with its seventy-five sixty-foot cars
should be placed on board ship and
transported across the atlantic
The large cars were lifted bodily from
the tracks in New York and safely
placed on the tracks in another country
II took three of the largest steamers
on the Atlantic to successfully trans
port the 100000 worth Of property. the
100 people attached TO the show. the
$50 horses. the 100 wagons and floats.
and the 80 elephants
To simplify matters a large advance

These books received a wide distriDa-
ton in the circles where they would DO
the most good. The railroad manage
ments throughout Europe received
copies, as did the armies in the various
countries through which the show

has caused scores Of reforms in trans

With the aid OF photographs the man
ner in which the great cars and Gags
were loaded on the steamer was first
described The methods employed were
a revelation TO the most experienced
dockman. The railway cars were lifted
in great sings ana swung quickly TO
their place on the steamers deck. The
horses and elephants were driven quick
~ down runways and from their long
training with circus parades boarded
the steamer as quickly as they would
walk into their stalls.
The circus book also dealt with the
superiority OF American railway coaches
over the European models, The old
