dency 10 wiring out his dishcloth and
the clouds gathered thick and dark
from all sides this afternoon. A great
many people came in 10 town for
the circus and half the town was on
the streets In the morning to witness
the parade. The clouds did not pre-
vent a big concourse from faring
forth TO the circus grounds and enter.
ing the big tents, The show In every
feature Is the best one that has been
here In several years.
The circus trains arrived early
from the south. Unloading was done
before the usual curious throng hap
pened around. II a II o'clock be-
fore the boarse notes OF the caliope
announced the start Of the parade.
The procession IA gorgeous and
gilded enough. From a distance il
looked like a section OF the British
army on the march. The uniforms of
nearly all the paraders were red, the
huge wains were red, the flags were
red and pretty nearly everything
else was red. There were the usual
number OF eQuestrians in their gay
costumes, acrobats. queens OF various
kinds. open and closed cages. and by
all odds the best looking circus
horses ever seen in the city. The pa
rade presented an UNNECESSARILY su.
perior appearance 10 that of the
Campbell Brothers outfit which was
here a couple of weeks ago.
The same a be said for the
events OF the circus. Sells & Downs
carry some wonderfully clever people.
The ring performance is spectacular
and daring, the trapeze work and &C.
robatic features uncommonly good
The company does what it adyertises
to do which is unusual enough to be
particularly gratifying. There are
two rings and a platform. but when
the best things on the platform or in
the air are going on the ring perform
ance Is stopped.
Sells g. Downs give a wholesome
fresh and In many respects edifyins
