street parade will start from the show
grounds Monday morning at $50

firm. The show has grown to enor-
nous size. The big tent will hold about

almost as big and the animal collec-
tion il contains is claimed to be the
most valuable in America.
Among the odd creatures of wild ma
ture to be seen in the natural history
department of the great show are the
only rhinoceros in the country, two
giraffes, a horned horse, baby tigers,
panthers, forty elephants and a real
baby elephant still unweaned. The cir
Gus acts will be given in three rings, on
two stages and amid a forest of over
head trappings. The hippodrome races
will be run on a track one-fourth of a
mile long.
The big spectacle of Jerusalem and

fifty pieces and a tremendous portable
pipe organ.
Nearly all the circus artists are new
to San Francisco, they making their
first appearance in America with Ring
ling Brothers. The four Eldreds from
England, the four Bedinis from Italy,
the seven Clinserrettis from Germany,
the Tasmanian troupe from. Australia
and the eight Colini-Cairons from
France are among these.
The riding feats of the sEldreds and
Bedinis are novel and made a great
hit in the long Chicago engagement of
the Ringlings. The Dacoma family.
Dollard troupe. Rio brothers, Fortuns
brothers, flying Fishers, three Alvos,
TybeH sisters, Kaufman family, Jack
son family and Genaro and Theoll are
foremost in long list of circus celebri-
ties.
The trained elephants. performing
seals and educated horses are striking
numbers in the big circus programme.
Ringing Brothers are said never to
have had so big or satisfying a circus
programme as they offer this season.
The street display Monday morning
promises to throng the streets with ex-
pectant sightseers. The sensational
thriller" of the circus programme is
the much-talked-of ''leaping the gap.
Walter Lowe, the performer, who dares
death by a desperate ride down an al
most perpendicular plane about two
feet wide and then flies on his wheel
through space for fifty-two feet, land
ing on a padded incline, has caused
more sensational interest than any dar-
ing performance brought forward by
a circus enterprise within a generation.

.LIPPMANS PUT ON
POLICE DOCKET
TOTAL OF FIVE CHARGES
MADE AGAINST FATHER AND son
BY THE POLICE.

Among other Things They Are
Charged With Doing Business
without n License-'This Brings Up
Col. Garrard's Decision That Free
Licenses for Veterans Are Not Lee
gnI-That Phase of Case Will I'm
doubtedIy Go to Highest Court.
Five cases were docketed yesterday
against the Lippmans connected with
the ticket brokers' Office, which is be-
ing run here.
Two cases are against Leonard Lipp-
man, who is running the place, and
three against Lewis Lippman, his
father, in whose name the Confeder-
ate veterans license was issued.
The most important cases are the
two which charge both father and son
with doing business without a license.
This charge was entered against both
of the Lippmans and, of course, was
made in view of the recent opinion
of Col. Garrard, the city attorney, to
the effect that the law allowing the
veterans free lincenses is unconstitu-
tional.
While the Mayor and other city au-
thorities believe the city attorney is
correct in his opinion. no effect will be
made to MODEST those veterans, who
are manifestly entitled to the licenses
and are using them themselves.
The opinion of Col Garrard which
they believe would hold in all cases,

BAZAAR OF GEORGIA COMO OPENS
UNDER AUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES
Tempting Display of Wares in Presence of Large
Crowd of Fair Ladies and Gallant knights

With pretty women and gallant
Knights on every hand, the bazaar
given by Georgia Company No. /, X
of P, was opened last night. For sew
eral hours the hall on the third floor
of the knights of Pythias building
was thronged with visitors, who bought
freely of the wares offered. 1t was
Calanthe Lodge night.
AS was intended by the management
the occasion was a social event, as
well as a profitable venture for the
company. ITS a grand success in
every way" was the way one of the
managers put it.
Inside the hall the arts of the lady
friends of the company were exer-
cised with effect. Along the walls
were ranged the booths upon which
were displayed the various wares.
Ranged for the inspection of the pub
lie were a great variety of objects,
large and small. Some of them the
purchaser could carry away in cor
ner of his smallest pocket. while 9TH
ers would require a horse and wagon
for their proper transportation.
In the center of the room were two
bales of hay, contributed for the oc-
casion by an enterprising dealer. but
the horse dealers did not arrive and
the dried grass stood as an ornament
rather than as an object for purchase.
Some of the visitors perhaps suspected
that the hay was there solely as an
ornament, instead of being for sale.
Great Variety of Wares.
In one booth was displayed jewelry,
cravats, watches and perfumes, while
down the line were boxing gloves.
writing paper. shoes, bicycle lanterns,
tapestry, razors, umbrellas, clocks,
combs. rifles. bisque figures, garden
hose. pictures. music boxes, suits of
clothes, flowers, and a bewildering
maze Of other wares.
on a wooden horse was displayed a
set of harness. while a little further
down was a baby carriage, rockers
and other heavier goods. A huge cake,
thickly iced. ornamented table. and
around it were ranged glass Jars OF
fruit.
one Of the best patronized of the
booths was that given over TO refresh
ments. Ice cream trade was very
brisk during the evening and neat
sum was realized from this feature.
Cigars and bottles of various sizes
were also for sale.
Signal for HELM.
In the way of decorations the loft
was gayly hung with flags of the navy
like those used for signaling. The sig
nal last night was Help send the COM
pany to Louisville. 1t viii advertise

most OF those who attended, but that
did not prevent them from giving the
a substantial lift.

"DIXlE."
From he New York Times.

From the New York Times.
Undoubtedly the Southerners, if they
try, can improve the words of Dixie"
they can, that is, produce words that
will go with the tune, and, instead OF
being incoherently humorous and ut
terly absurd, give to lofty sentiments
and expression that would pass muster
with the critics who select poetry"
for the newspapers-but what an ut
ter waste of time it will be! Dixie" as
it is, serves a purpose and has served
it extremely wen for many years.
There is not the slightest reason for
supposing that it will not serve that
purpose just as well till the end of
time If let alone. Just what the pur-
pose is can be more easily felt than
defined but if there was ever any
thing wrong about it. the wrongness
has all evaporated now, and the pop
ularity of the tune has spread far be-

fined it. And, as matter of fact, the

where. The absurdity of the words

body every took the trouble to learn
more than a line on two of them. The
emotional thrill comes when an orches-
ira, or band revives the associations
that cluster around the tune. There
is some reason for believing that our
revolutionary ancestors thought a good
deal Of Yankee Doodle" and we all
do still in a way, but nobody ever
thought of revising its words of which
only one stanza has survived outside
the collections Of literary relics. ana
that stanza, II not quite at uncouth as
some in Dixie" is quite as far from
definitely expressing any sentiment
now compreh ensible. The merit. in the
sense Of the popularity and lasting
qualities, of songs is a very mysterious
thing. dependent upon no known rules
