LARGE CROWDS ATTENDED.
Public in General Very Well Pleased
With Circus.

Despite the threatening weather and
the morning showers, the Sells q Downs
circus was greeted by two large audi
ences at their performances in this city
yesterday afternoon and evening. and the
public in general pronounced the snow
up ito their expectations.
Many expressions of surprise were
heard on the streets yesterday morning
when the parade advanced through the
principal thoroughfares exactly on sched-
ule time This is the first time in the
history of Wichita circuses that the ex-
pectant throng have not been kept wait
ing until weary and disguised before the
parade would put in an appearance
While the parade was not OF great
length, the bright wagons, the we'll
kept horses and the new, clean costumes
of the performers We're very pleasing.
AS usual the clown was surrounded by
his crowd Of small boys; and the end Of
the parade was announced by strains
from the calliope.
BY . o'clock the main tent was well
filed and promptly at O'Clock the open
ing march was announced by the trumpet.
The opening act was the performance
of two splendidly trained black horses,
with Joseph Berris and Mile. Hillard in
charge. The cake-walk feature was es-
pecialIy good, the horses keeping perfect
time
Professor Winston, who is we'll known
to Wichita audiences, exhibited some
trained seals that were especially fine.
The Juggling seal made a decided nit.
The muddy condition of the rings inter-
fered greatly with the bareback riding,
but Notwithstanding this fact, some good
work was done by VIM. ROLAND in the
north ring.
The five Martells, who can ride any
kind of a wheel and ride it well were
especially well received. Little four-year-
old Edna was pronounced wonder.
The Jay Raft on the center stage
was the funniest thing done by the
clowns during the afternoon. There were
seven clowns.
Miss Dutton did a decidedly good act
on the swinging rings.
The Silverton wire walkers and the
"Garcenetti' tumblers were especially
featured, and did good work. The wire
trio making an especial hit
One of the best features of the show
is the spIendidly drilled troupe Of Pom
tiac Zouaves, whose marching. pyramid
work and wall-scaling is excellent.
The hurdle jumping horses. driven by
John Holland, ELECTED much admiration.
The performance was closed with the
usual races. during which the lady
wins as is always customary. new
feature was the small boys foot race.
The circus embarked late last night
over the Santa Fe for Oklahoma City.

A Good Thing to Keep In the House.

Compound tincture of benzoin
will stop an aching tooth instantly
if a little cotton is saturated with
it and put in the tooth. If any of
the family cut themselves, paint
the cut thoroughly with benzoin.
Painted on burn, it will stop the
smart and heal the burn. We use it
for chapped or cracked hands and
think there is nothing like it. The
simple tincture is fine if few drops
are put in the water with which to
bathe the face. The simple tincture
is toilet preparation, and the com
pound tincture is medical prepara-
ton. 1t forms an air tight coating
wherever applied.-Woman's Home

OVERS WITHDRAWAL

A BETTER ARGUMENT in favor of the re election
of Governor Peabody could scarcely be written than
contained in the letter of Judge Overs withdrawing
from the populist ticket.

republicans claim and that just what the peo
pie of Colorado do Who heard
of Colorado being passive when great questions

prevail if Adams is elected will at least give and
enable reflect and work and pray. 1t would be

them work their murderous schemes under the Smiling

that Colorado have that point where

Laundry Lines.

A spoonful of borax put into the
water in which white clothes are
rinsed has the effect of whitening
them.
When washing lace do not blue it,
but give it final rinsing in skim
milk. This will give it the creamy
tint so much admired and also a
slight stiffness.
The water in which a small guam
tity of rice has been boiled until it
is gclatinous makes an excellent
starch for fine lawn or canvas col
lars and cuffs. Dip them in and
iron between two cloths.

To Peel Tomatoes.

Nearly every cook or recipe book
says, Pour boiling water over ripe
tomatoes, then skin them" But
this is a very vague direction. The
correct way to peel tomatoes is to
cover them with boiling water for
half a minute, then lay them in cold
water until perfectly cold, and the
skin can be peeled off without diff

Tulsa Defeated in Splendid
Contest by Score Of 2 to O.

The Vinita boys doubled back on
the Tulsa Braves yesterday for their
defeat of the day before. McBurney
and French were the battery for Tulsa,
while Henderson and Stevenson held
the points for Vinita. 1t was splen-
did game, only two men succeeding in
making the circuit. McBurney struck
out nine men and Henderson eight.
Three hits only were made off Lige's
delivery, our boys batting safe five
times. The home team made five er-

mark against Vinita. In Vinita's half
of the third inning Meade was given a
pass to the initial bag. He went to
second on Hendersen's safety to right
and to third on Etters' safety and
