The opening Of the coming carnival
is the anniversary not only Of the
showman's birth, but is also the thir-

career. On the same day OF the

Parker show left Abilene. II was .
dinky affair In the full sense Of the
word. 1t consisted OF q little merry
go-round, the memory Of which makes
its owner smile today. The sunaower
special OF that day consisted Of four
wagons and 1t was not very impoS'

and In the following IS minutes con-

two towns was covered before the
frightened horses were stopped. I'm

proceeded and the opening was . good

that time, but the people turned out
and spent their money. In just

1t is needless to elaborate upon the
cleanliness Of the Parker Pike, IL to-
ing too we'll known In this commun.
ity. The name Of Parker stands for
the best and the cleaneSt in the
am usement line. Nothing off.Color is
ever tolerated, gambling 10 prohibited
and the attractions are all such that
no offense 10 given to the most refined.
The Pike this season 10 out Of the
ordinary and embraces some Of the
greatest novelties ever presented with
a carnival company. One 0. these is
The Volcano, an electrical and me-
cbanical wonder, wildly depicting
Mt. vesuvius in eruption. II 10 b
product Of the home factory and the
fhest piece Of workmanship ever
turned out. In view Of the recent
activity in the real vesuvius this will
undoubtedly prove a drawing card.
Another novelty is The Phantom
Minstrels, never before seen with any
carnival company. An explanation
of this attraction would be inadequate,
but it is safe to say that 1t is one Of
the most unique entertainments be-
fore the public.
Hale's Famous Tour Of the World
Is another extraordinary feature with
the carnival this year. Since its re-
cent introduction to the amusement
going public it has proved veritable
sensation.
Among the fun producers will be
The Marionettes, the Plantation Show,
Penny Arcade, Ferris Wheel, Carry.
Us-All and others. Creation and Ty-
rolesn Alps will also be presented.
Never before has Abilene seen such
an array Of sensational free attrac-
tons as will be presented. Always
in the lead. The big company this
year features one Of the greatest Of
daredevil stunts, and one appropri-
atsly termed The Limit. The fearless
performer rides down steep incline
on bicycle at break-neck race, and
while In mid-air suddenly leaps from |
the wheel, shoots out like 9 rocket
over an intervening space Of seventy |
feet and drops into shallow tank Of
water.
Another attraction, the equal Of
which no other company can boast,
is the high diving queen, Florence
Spray, the only lady high diver in
the world. She hSi been featured at
all the Big sxPosltions and will this
year be seen In Abilene. Sensational

HEROISM AT SEA.

Thrilling Acts of S~elf-Sacriice as Cadet
Ship Sank.
Hamburg, Germany.-The survivors
of the Belgian cadet ship Comte de
Smet de Mayer, which 'foundered at
sea, landed at CuXhaven and came to
this city. Their story shows that no
storm or sudden squall was responsible
for the disaster, but that it was due to
a mysterious leak, which was not no.
ticed for some time, presumably on
account of the cement in the cargo
soaking up the water. When 1t was
noticed It vas too late.
All hands were called to the pumps,
but the hand pumps failed and then
the steam pumps gave out. AS the
water rose In the hold the ship set sig
nails of distress, which were unavail-
ing. When it was finally decided to
abandon the ship great difficulty was
experienced in launching the boats, the
sea then washing over the decks.
Two of the boats were sunk, but the
third got away with twenty-four per
o n in her.. Commander Fourcault,
First Officer Barns Van Suylen and
Chaplain Kuypers refused to leave.
Each was at his post when the ship
broke in two and sank, carrying them
down with it. The last seen of the
chaplain he was making the sign of the
cross.
The first officer was picked up by
the lifeboat after the ship sank, but
seeing that the boat was too heavily
loaded, he threw himself o~VerDoard
and was drowned.
