GREATER THAN EVER
Ringing Brothers Shows will Exhibit
At Chickasha Thursday. Oct. 5.

This world-famous circus firm,
always modern and progressive,
have had for years the biggest and
best show on earth, which fact,
however, has moi deferred them
from going into fnrther enormous
expense for this season by the adj
dition of new cars, hundreds of
horses, gorgeous parade features,
imported ring novelties and even
entire new shows. The crowning
novelty this year is the stupendous
spectacular production Of The
Gield OF the Cloth of Gold, " inter
preted by 200 characters. The
costumes Of the spectacle are his
toricaly correct and radiantly col
orful. There are ? 500 designs of
the picturesque styles belonging to
the days when knight errantry was
in flower. The scenic accessories
of this production are carried in an
extra special train Of fifteen cars,
and the lighting effects of the the
ater are used for the first time un-
der canvass to give the charm Of
atmosphere to the swiftly changing
incidents and pictorial scenes. The
tent of the circus is the largest
ever made, and is brilliantly light
ed by electricity. This departure
is in keeping with the progressive
spirit that has always characterized
Ringing Brothors' great circus.
The monster street parade, always
fascinating attraction with Ring
ling Brothers shows, has been en-
larged and is now glittering pag
cant more than three miles long.
The band chariots and musical We
hicles are massive structures,
gracefully fashioned and beauti-
fully colored. The animal cages
and dens are newly built and Of
differing shoyey patterns, which re-
lieve this procession from the
deadly monotory that overshadows
the street display OF the familiar
circus. Elaborately carved and
richly decorated tableaux wagons
bear character types of the great
nations Of the world, and cavalry
troops, equipped for service, illus
trate the army dress and national
pride of all countries. A division
of Lilliputian cages for children's
delight. forty elephants, the larg-
est herd in captivity, twenty CAM
els and hundreds Of high-strung
horses Of blue -blooded origin,
scores of wild arimal dens and fifty
clowns for rollicking fun-and in
good fellows they are-are
other captivating features in the
remarkable free street display. In
the ring performances Ringing
Brothers introduce 375 performers
and more than 100 sensational
acts. Many of the artists appear
in America for the first time, and
all stand at the head Of their class.

SHORTAGE GROWS LARGER,
Defalcation of San Francisco Tax Col
lector Will Total About
$4,000

San Francisco, April 20. - It is esti-
mated by the experts at work upon
the books of the city tax collectors
onice that the alleged shortage of Ed
ward J. Smith will amount to total
of at least $6S,000. They discovered
to-day one item Of $4,000, which had
not been entered and also detected
several smaller shortages. The meth
DDS used by the tax collector to con-
ceal his operations are declared to
have been many, involving much labor
on the part of the experts to trace
them. The police believe that most of
the money taken from the city was
spent by Smith for the benefit of WON
en- friends, one of whom is alleged to
have accompanied him in his flight.
1t is the intention to make full exam
ination of the books of the county
treasurer and probably of others who
have the handling of public funds.

O'Brien is a captain, acting inspec-

handing eye, the unf1inching valor,
that make men like Byrnes and Will
liams in a tight place worth ten ordi-
nary fellows. O'Brien served as the

lynx-like eyes, his silent patrolmen

Workers have said could never be done
this side of London.
And so, passing again all his in
spectors, tainted many of them with
suspicion, McAdoo put the one man
who had "done things" in the depart

MINERS MEET DEATH.
Twelve Killed by Explosion Near Du-
bois, Pa.-Ten Dashed to Pieces
at Wilkes barre, Pa.

Dubois, Pa, April 29-An explosion,
the exact nature of which is as yet unex-
planned, occurred in the Eleanora shaft
near this city, Thursday night. Twelve
were killed and one had both legs and
both arms broken. He will probably
die. An examination of the bodies as
they were laid on the floor of the little
building near the shaft indicated that
death had come instantly Those that
had the black dust washed from their
bodies showed evidences of having been
burned, scarlet spots showing all over
their bodies. Their clothing tears as
though it were made of paper. There
could not have been much flame, how
ever, as the hair of the victims was not
scOrched.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, April 27-Ten min
ers were instantly crushed to death
Wednesday at the Conyngham mine of
the Delaware & Hudson company, To-
Gated in the northern part of this city.
The men were being lowered into the
mine, and when $50 feet from the sur
face the rope broke and the cage fell to
the bottom of the shaft, distance of
400 feet.
A rescuing party was at once organ
lied, and they found the bodies of the
men In the stump at the bottom of the
shaft beneath mass of debris. They
were terribly mangled. Most of the vic
tins lived in the vicinity of the mine,
and when the rescuers brought the
crushed forms to the surface large
crowd was in waiting. The grief of the
relatives of the dead was heart-rending.

Liabilities Of $3,277 900.
Milwaukee, April 2S.-The latest
step in the career of Frank G.. Bigelow
the former bank president who de-
fault7d in the sum of $1OO0,000 is the
filing OF a petition in involuntary
bankruptcy. The revised schedules
show total liability on the part OF
Mr.. Bigelow of 1927, 900, of which
$l,975,C00 is wholly or in part secured.
OF the remainder, $1,1OO,00O is a sec
ondary liability on notes and bills dis
counted, in which Bigelow figures as
indorser
The balance, $4,000, represents un-
secured loans, the largest one being
an Indebtedness of 100000 to the
Broadhead estate, Of which Bigelow
was executor.
The assets of the banker are esti-
mated at $1,849,S00, against which a
homestead exemption of $4,000 is
placed. The rest of the assets con-
sist chiefly of stock in various indus
trial and other enterprises and 1000

started the Equitable row? The
rumor, due likely to the prominence
OF E. H. Hartman in the society, that
standard Oil men were trying to buy
the Hyde holdings, which controlled
the great company. Hartman is the
standard Oils hired man in railroad
management; he is a director in IS
great financial companies. The pos
slplllty that Mr. Rockefeller, by merely
buying at whatever price $4,000 in
shares of the society, could control the
Investment of nearly $5O0,OOO,OOO of it's
money assets, was startling enough.
Inc price quoted varied from $780,
900 to $1O,000,000 for this little batch
OF stock limited to Z per cent. in
come. That price measures the value
OF the privilege of investing the as
sets, OF being able to buy Smiths
bonds and turn down Jones', when
both Smiths and Jones' are equally
good.
No one doubts that the investment

serVatlVe. Anyone. is at liberty to go
over the list of investments in the
published reports. He will find a few
such items as the bonds of Mr.. Nor

life insurance company, but in the

value
That's not altogether the point.
There is a law proposed in Albany
now to forbid any director of finan-
cial corporation taking a "tip'' or fee
for granting a loan or buying bonds.
You wouldn't think such a law was
necessary? Well, it is. The German
bank in Buffalo was wrecked by alb
sence of such a law.
