THE AURORA ZoUAvEs
A Popular Feature Of the Great
Circus.

Instead of being a matter of record
the career Of the Aurora Zouaves reads
more like romance of twentieth GEN.
fury knights. 1t seems almost in
credible that a company organized in
a small city of Illinois. in inst tha
same manner that militia comnanies
are enlisted in other towns of like size
should, through their self-acuuired nro.
ficiency. become the acknowledged
best-drilled soldiers in the world and
have that title bestowed upon them I'm
far-off Europe where the Profession of
the soldier is the lifetime avocation Of
countless thousands and the snrest
road to honor.
And yet it is true. They began
drilling under an experienced drill
MASTER Captain A. H. Tarble. who
learned the lessons of the drill from
service in the Illinois National Guard.
OF course he is a genius in that line
he must be to accomplish so much with
such crude material. The boys went
at their work with a will and proved
most apt pupils. About a year after
they began they had the temerity to
enter Il drill contest in neighboring
town, Streator, Illinois. To the aston
ishment of everybody they gained
second prize, and lost the first prize
only because their uniforms and equip
ment were not so fine as those of the
competing companies. When they re-
turned home their fellow-citizens
awakened to the heroes among their
own sons and supplied the necessary
funds to obviate that deficiency in
future contests. The same year the
Aurora boys met the same competitors
and others in an interstate contest and
| easily walked away with the first prize
by Il great margin of thirty points.
Since then they have never taken any
thing else than first prize, and they
have been in numberless contests.
Some five years ago they visited New
York ard gave exhibitions at Madison
Square garden. The press of the
metropolis voiced the commentator of
the public in most enthusiastic terms
of praise.
A little more than two years ago
they decided to send drilling squad
to Europe and get the verdict of those
nations of professional soldiers and
enormous standing armies. Their
stupendons and unqualified success is
| now a matter of history.
While they We're still in Europe
negotiations for their appearance with
the Forepaugh-Sells combination We're
begun. At first they would not listen
to any overtures to that end. They
We're flooded with offers from various
European managers which, if accepted,
would keep them busy for more than
the next three years. However, after
they had been away from home for Il
year and their families and friends at
home and their business interests be-
gan to demand their return, and
through combination of influences.
they were induced to come back and
travel during this summer with these
shows. At the conclusion of the pres
ent season they will. doubtless. return
to Europe to accept the standing offers
of engagement they brought home
with them.
Meanwhile they will be seen here
with tie Forepaugh-Sells shows when
they exhibit here tomorrow.
