CIRCUS DAY.
The Great Adam Forepaugh and Sell:

The circus is one Of the big
things of America that has made

attracted the curious study of mill

great bodies OF men, and huge
business institutions. II is this
marvellous management that draws
multitudes of people TO the train

horses that take part in this big
spectacle are freshly groomed ev.

Most circus parades are firing af
fairs, because Of the unkempt ex.

horses are apt TO be slow moving
and worn, and the people, as a
rule, strongly suggest the idea of
strenuous times. At last, thanks

night passed strong resolutions CON
demning the actions of persons VINO
have been fighting Boysen, and calling
upon the Wyoming delegation in con-
sress to assist Boysen in every legltl-
mate manner possible. The reSoiu-
tions state that Boysen was granted
certain rights in the reservation, and
the business men demand that ne De
granted these rights. The blowing up
Of Boysen's diamond drill outfit IS con-
demned in strong terms, and heavy
reward is offered for information that

that these have all been provided and
that, although various public improve

has done more than the small revenues

1t alleges that the records show the
actual ownership OF Anne leans OF lan1s
