hardly seems possible to give so muel.
for so small an admission price. The
two menageries themselves are fully
worth what is asked to see everything
Then the curious human freaks and
the queer entertainment in the menag-
erie tents is another complete exhibit
ton, and one so full of novelty and so
instructive to everybody as 10 prove a
notable show in itself. Three herds of
elephants also afford much amuse-

amazing Two droveS of camels and
many cages of rare wild animals give

In many respects the Barnum & Bail

performances are so numerous and at

AT one time nearly as many as a dozen

kind and Of such a high order of merit
as 10 justify its presentation by Itself

itself. There are so many of these
special features and high-class acts
going on at once that all the spectator
can do is 20 rivet their attention on one
of them at a time. which will be suf-
fcient to stamp the entertainment as
the greatest ever seen. If only one of
the three equestrian rings or one OF
the three elevated stages be watched
by the visitor he will see Just 20 acts
