BARNUM & BAILEY CIRCUS.
Local Engagement of the Big Circus
 Is Now Definitely Announced.

Local Engagement of the Big Circus
 Is Now Definitely Announced.
 The reported engagement of the Barnum & Bailey circus has been con firmed, and the big show, it is an- nounced, will exhibit here June 12.
 Probably the most remarkable of the new acts. and the one that has created the greatest comment and wonder, Is known as the Dip of Death" In this startling act heavy road car flies forty feet through space, with machine and driver act ually upside-down. Then, as though this thriller was not sufficient to sat isfy the public demand for sensation alism. two daring bicyclists tempt in jury and possible death by turning somersaults in mid-air on theiI wheels. This sensational act is de- scriptively entitled the 1.-Two Twirls of Terror" and Is said to create { furore wherever 1t Is seen.
 The performance opens with new spectacle entitled Peace" It is founded upon the Russo-Japanese war, ana descrlDes, m an allegOrlcal way. the presidents successful efforts to bring about peace between the warning armies in the east The circus performance follows. There are three rings. two stages, a quarter-mile hIp- podrome track and series of i'm mense aerial spaces. and all are util- ized by the 300 Europeans and Amer ican artists in the circus company. The big sensational features are in- terspersed through out the arenic pro- gram. The comedy element is provid- ed by what Is said to he the merriest lot of clowns ever seen with cir GUS The hippodrome races are render ed especially interesting and exciting by the introduction of thoroughbred racers. and jockeys and charioteers of established reputation.

Add to the above parties making for friction the body of French socialists. and some idea. If adequate. is had of the points of attack against the stability of republic.
 One class cries. anything, anything to keep down anarchy. to maintain commercial prosperity, maintain peace. Another class plots for the overthrow of republican aristocracy and the return of Royalist aristocra- cy. Another class dreams of mili- tary genius. an unknown general that shall lead to victory, restore the army to It's glory.
 An article in the Fortnightly, en- titled The Royalist Movement In France declares that to-day the re- public is upheld only by the sympathy of the populace. the support of the so- cialists, and the momentary adhesion of the officials. That In the banking world hostility is gaining against the present regime. That constitutional Catholics. breaking with the republi- can cause, are turning either to roy alism or to the empire. That "at the present moment, as happens always in France, the republic is on the eve of being replaced by a military dictator ship or consulate. which will be the preliminary either to the empire or the monarchy. Out of hundred Frenchmen, 75 are eager for the crisis and the end of the present regime. Every day which passes sees the mum Der of Republicans diminish.
 The same writer asserts that the war against clericalism. which has been causing SO much disturbance the last few years. is purely c war for spells, the Republicans greedy to lay their hands on the monastic property. A the time of the first revolution the spons fell chiefly to the middle classes and a few thousand peasants. but in the present scramble for riches the socialists are taking hand. much to the chsgrin of the middle classes. And much 10 the disapprobation of the f'nanciers. whose valuable aid was given Gambetta and has backed up Cambettais successors. To-day there is an exodus of capital to England. Bel gium and Switzerland. The strong prop of the republic. the Haute Fi- nance. is at the point of withdrawing protection. Slerics. Royslists. Bona psrtists, fnaneiers arrayed together, present a rather formidable union.

Prince Victor. a man of fev words. recently gave e1- pression to thfs opinion: Some years ago did not see very clearly into the destinies of France The restoration of the empire appeared uncertain: but today me fate of my country energes from the uists and I clearly perceive

The Italian band is larger than be- fore. Altogether 1t is fine, great, sonor0us feast of music. There is col or, and rhythm. and excellent time, and, most of all, sentiment.

Gallup Republican.
The Arizona & Colorado railroad Is
surveyed to cross the Navajo Indian
reservation from north to south and
the Indians are greatly Interested In
the coming of the road.
The Indians have many strange
ideas about the railroad, some of the
more advanced of the tribe being an
xious for the road to pass through
their country, others have to be
shown. An idea that they absolutely
own the reservation possesses some
of the Navajoes and they cannot un-
derstand how it is that the powers at
Washington can grant a right of way
TO railroad to cross the reservation
lands.
The A. G. c. r. r. has gained per
mission from the department OF the
interior to build across the reserya-
tion and already two surveys nave
been completed One survey is some
distance west of the other and the
Navajoes would rather that the road
ht Duiil over tHe survey W Tue east
rs they contend that over the eastern
survey the road would not pass
through so much corn and grazing
land
The road Will pay for any damage
that may incur to titled land and will
pay for water used from springs own.
ed by Indians The water from the
springs along the route would not be
| of sufficient amount TO operate the
road with and the matter will be de
veloped, no matter which survey IL
used for the track.
