times to delight in reserving the most inglorious
endngs for the most brilliant of careers, and the
case of Professor Curie has many precedents.
Thus who can forget the case of that German
scientist and explorer Dr. SclnitEler, who was
SO much better known by his Turkish name OF
Emin Pacha? When both England and Egypt
withdrew from the Soudan in 1888, rather than
attempt to hold It against the Mahdi, Enin,
who was Governor of one of the most important
provinces. declined to Withdraw on the ground
that he could not bring himself to abandon to
the sayaeery Of the dervishes all those natives
who had remained faithful 10 his rule-people
whom he had learned 10 love and admire and
who we're far too numerous TO be sent out of
the country. For several years Enin was cut
~. from all intercourse with the outer world.
Nothing certain was known as TO his fate. and
the information concerning him was based on
unsupported and untrustworthy rumors TO the
effect that he was holding his own against the
Mehdi and had checked his advance toward the
south The idea Of this white man fighting ali

ton against barbarism without any support or
encourae cement from without. ended by appeal
ing not only TO his countryTnen, but to all
r,uroue and America. Popular sentiment IN
every part Of the globe demanded that he should
no longer be left TO his fate Accordingly
costly expedition was equipped, regardless OF
expense and placed under the command of the
most famous African explorer of his day
namely Sir Henry Stanley. for the purpose of
finding and rescuing the gallant Emin. After a
march from the West Coast of Africa lasting
nearly a year, Stanley finally came up with

about my resignation in an eastern
paper while in New York. There isn't
a bit of truth in it,
The rumor was given little credence
here, as no intimation of such move
had been given, and Mr.. Elliott's man
agement of the great property is
known to be satisfactory. The rumor
was discredited particularly because
the time of his retirement was given
as July /, only two days after the
notice of 1t. Many big changes in
railway management are done under
cover but there are few instances
where the cover does not leak little.

FIGURES ARE CONVINCING.
They Demonstrate the Magnitude of
RnaIina Bros Wonderful Circus.


Ringing Bros Wonderful Circus.
While every reader of this paper is
satisfied that Ringing Brothers cirsus
and menagerie is the biggest and best
on earth, a few facts and figures con-
corning this wonderful tented amuse-
ment enterprise attract more than us
ual interest The big show with it's
three miles of parade glories, it's fa-
nous menagerie, its beautiful spectac-
ular production of The Field of the
Cloth of Gold, and its unexcelled arenic
attractions, including the flower of the
worlds greatest performers and the
most remarkable trained animal exhi-
bition ever presented to the public,
calls for the assistance of 1880 en-
ployes. The canvas tents that enclose
the wonders of this great circus cover
fifteen acres of ground. Six hundred
and fifty horses, all of them perfect
specimens of the equine race, are used
to draw the numerous wagons and to
act in the three rings and on the mon
ster quarter mile hippodrome track.
In the sublime production of The Field
of the Cloth of Gold, 1900 characters
are shown. These characters are rich
ly costumed in the finest fabrics OBJ
tainable, and small fortune alone was
expended for the silks, salts, velvets,
cloth of gold and silver and for the
armor, coats of mail, shields, spears,
lances, horse trappings- and aeeeutre-,
ments. The entire production is given
on the largest stage ever used for ex-
additional purposes. In the colossal
menagerie are 10S cages. lairs, dens
and tanks filled with beasts of the for
est, plain and jungle, and a host of
queer water fowl and animals whose
natural element is the water. The fea-
lures of the menagerie include Baby
Boo, the first baby elephant ever born
and reared in America pair of full
grown CRATES, the last of their kind,
and the only rhinoceros in captivity.
The Ringing parade is glittering pic
ture Of color, action and entertaining
novelties that never fail to delight the
eye. The circus is transported in five
long trains of eighty five care, each
car being from sixty to seventy feet in
length, hTeir carrying capacity is
equal to ITO ordinary cars. The par
ade and two performances will be Civ

Considerable interest is taken by
citizens in the repaving operations on
Broadway and there has been some
misunderstanding as to how the paving
work would be carried on.
The plan is to lay the concrete foun-
dation on the east side Of Broadway
for three blocks first. AS soon as the
concrete on the first block between N.
p. avenue and the N. p. tracks is set,
the cedar blocks will be put in place
and the opposite side of the street viii
