SOMETHING STARTLING.
Daring Deeds Most Deftiy Done in
the Big BarnUm 6 Bailey Shows.

A large number of excursion parties
have already been arranged for the pur-
pose of visiting the famous Barnum Il
Bailey Greatest Show on Earth when it
exhibits in Toledo, May 2S, 1901 All
transportation lines give cheap exucr-
sion rates to the big show and thou
sands of people in this vicinity will
take advantage of the opportuu ity to
see this collosal modern exhibition.
The Barnum & Baily Show was not
only the original combined circus,
menagerie and hippodrome, but it has
kept so far ahead of all other shows
Oh these distinct lines that it is beyond
the range of rivalry or comparison. In
New York City, wherethe great show
opened a five weeks season in March
Bishop Potter voiced the sentiment of
the public after the first performance
by declaring: &" 1t is the best l ever
saw" From the time the doors open
and Carl Clair's splendid military band
begins its grand preliminary con-
cert, until the final thrilling chariot
race III the hippodrome contests, there
is something interesting to see. First
there is the splendid geological collec-
ton of L re and valuable wild animals.
Thirty elephants, Il herd of four almost
priceless giratfes, twenty camels and
dromedaries, and over fifty cages of
other wild beasts form a display both
interesting and of distinct educational
value. In the hippodrome pavilion,
whtre seats are provided for nearly
$4,000 spectators, there is trlple-ring
circus performance SO sensational at
tractlYe in It's varied features as to
dwarf ANYTHING in the arenic line ever
before offered the American public.
The program opens with a gorgeous re-
production of the great Durbar of
Delhi. Following this scene of OrIen-
tai life 200 aerialists, acrobates. and
other specialists introduce scores of
sensational feats of skill and daring.
| This part of the program is brought to
a fitting climax by the almost Incredible
featS of Volo, the Volitant, who loops
the aerial arch on bicycle, and of
Ancillotti who performs the latest and
greatest of all bicycle acts by turning
sOmersault on wheel in great loop
with an open gap. The gorgeous free
parade which inaugurates circus day
will take place on the morning of the
opening exhibition.

The Cossacks on some of the rivers in
Russia have a singular method of catch
ing the finny tribe in winter They cut
long trench across river when froz-
en-, and run net from one bank to the
other; then, riding several miles up the
stream, they form line across the froz-
en- surface and gallop their horses down
towards the nets. The fish, hearing the
noise and catter of thousand hoofs,
become frightened, dart in the opposite
direction, and are thus entangled in the
net.

PORTION OF VARIED lNDUSTHlES BUILD
ING WORLDS FAIR
cession covers eleven acres of ground,
is surrounded bya wall and the streets
are laid out and buildings erected in
exact reproduction of those in Jeru-
salem. Guides are supplied who
conduct the visitors through the
streets and explain all interesting
points. We were first taken to the
Mosque of Omar, thence to the
Mount of Olives and then through
the street represention those through
which our Lord, bearing his cross
passed on his way to the crucifiXion,
the various places where he stopped
to rest being indicated. There is
also a reproduction of the Savior's
tomb. Before entering the Mosque
each visitor is compelled to put on
holy shoes over his own or he cannot
enter. The people are the same, the
streets and buildings are the same,
their method of living is the same
and in every respect everything looks
the same as in the real Jerusalem
even the sleepy eyed camels, the lazy
.donkeys and the swarthy camel men
and donkey dryers. No visitor to the
Fair should fail to spend his 2oc for
admission to Jerusalem.
A pleasant feature of the grounds
is the intramural railway which en-
circles the grounds and which for a
ten cent fare saves many weary mile
of travel to the visitor who soon learns
that the St, Louis exposition is city
of magnificent distances, and that he
has travelled many miles before he
begins to feel that tired feeling
which comes to all without the asking.
The members of the press were
provided with passes to everything
that was within the gates of this
greatest show on earth, and it was
our pleasure to "have look" at
everything to be seen.
1t will be impossible to tell our
readers all about it in one article, but
we wish to impress upon their minds
that visit to st. Louis is money well
spent.
The expense? No, the stories told
in some of the papers of robbery and
extortionate rates are not correct. We
found the prices no higher than those
prevailing at Chicago and Buffalo

CANADA NEEDS MORE

Donald Grant Discredits Re.
ports That It Expeis Amer
lean Experts -.4 3

The alarmist reports that have been
sent out from the Canadian capitals
regarding the expulsion of American
railway engineers from Canada re-
gard as having very little foundation -
said Donald Grant, the Faribault rail-
road contractor, who was at the,s Mer-
chants hotel yesterday.
1.-The fact is there is employment for
every competent Canadian engineer in
the building of Canadian railroads, but
there is no Disgusting the situation that
5000 miles Of new railroad and impor-
tant changes in the lines of existing
railroads cannot be built with the few
engineers who are citizens of the Cana
dian provinces. The men must be
brought in from outside countries, and
since American engineers lead the
world in railroad building, there can
be no valid objection to employing
them on work which must be done
this year. :
THE reports of wholesale deporta-
tons are unqueStionably inspired by
interested Canadians. Of course, in
the building of railroads subsidized by
the Canadian government preference
should be given citizens of Canada
and l do not think that American con-
tractors will object to this statement
of fact"
Grant left last night for Kansas to
inspect the line of a proposed railroad
While he admitted that the Job in
volyed big deal, he refused, for bust
ness reasons of the promoters, to state
what part of the state the new road

CARS TO WHITE BEAR
Lake Village Grants Franchise
to Railway Company

The last barrier in the way of the
street railway company's proposed ex-
tension to White Bear village has been
removed by the franchise granted to
the company by the White Bear Village
council. The franchise is for twenty
i've years and was granted after a long
fight in the White Bear council.
The street railway company. in ae-
cepting the franchise, agrees to have
the extension completed and in opera
ton within one year. and further agrees
to maintain through service between
White Bear village and ST. Paul dur
ing the busy morning and evening
hours of the summer. During other
hours it will be necessary for White
Bear passengers to change at the point
where the White Bear line connects
with the Wildwood line.
In the passage of the franchise the
company wins the point for which it
has been contending, that of 2e-cent
fare between White Bear and St. Paul.
The White Bear villagers have been
holding back for 15-cent fare, and the
fight for the lower fare has caused a
delay of several weeks in securing the
passage of the ordinance. The point
was finally yielded to the company and
the franchise was passed by a close
vote.
The board of county commissioners
at meeting held some weeks ago,
granted the company a franchise for
the extension from the Wildwood line
to the village limits of White Bear.
