Jim Crow silists Turned Down

The prize fight between Kid Raymond
of Seattle and Kid Harrison of Spokane
was booked for Friday night in OTIS
Hall.
1t seems that the reputation of these
fighters flew on to Ritzville and in ad-
vance Of them. Both boys being in bad
odor did nothing to help the sale of tick.
cts by hanging around the saloons all
day. For some time before the fight
was scheduled to have taken place it was
noised about town that the exhibition
was to be fake. Of course we all real.
ize how susceptible we are. but it is ab-
solutely ut of the question to allow a
pair of notorious grafters clean up our
loose money after the fashion of the So
called glove artists.
1t might be well tor the city authorities
to inquire more strictly as to the nature
of such contests and Judge accordingly
whether or not permit shall be Issued.
Ritzville may be in need of amuse.
ment, but when it fails to amuse it takes
another name. No right thinking citi-
zen will try to place ban on athletics
that is, athletics of the cleaner sort.
Let US hope that in ths future Ritzville
will hold out inducements that will at.
tract the better class Of performers.

CIRCUS DAY
IN Rr1zvILLE
Those Who Attended the Per.
Torrance Given By Forepaush
& Sells Bros Show Film flamed

{ Something happened last Friday
which will long be- remembered by the
"oldest inhabitant" as one Of the best
stories to tell when arguments arise as
to the most freakish stunt of the weather
man ever perpetrated in Adams County.
The sun was particularly sluggish about
making his appearance this morning in
question and the blue haze in the
east betokened little rain Or breeze.
AZ though coming to sudden real
ization OF his lsziness, old Sol threw
up bis rays in ono, mighty burst Of
glory and flooded the land with gold
en- light truly wonderful day for .
circus. People in riggs, Surveys,
market wagons, sulkies and on horse
back trooped into town in one SEEM
ingly endless trsiu. Most Of the fore
noon the circus troupe with their wild
animals, horses, donkeys and band,
paraded the streets with mnch osten-
tation and made the surrounding
wheat hills reverberate with the sound
Of their trumpets, drums and the
bowls and screetches OF their much
advertised ensgerie. Midday saw
the people almost too restless to par
take OF any refreshment in the way
Of dinner or luncheon. Early in the
afternoon crowds began 20 wend their
dusty way to the circus grounds to
spend their money for Lemonade pop.
corn, peanuts, red balloons and Coney
Island fan at the entrance to the
great show tents. This usual psstime
INDUCED in. the now great mass moved
restlessly toward the "bleachers" in
the big tent from which seats thsy
expected to see the "Wonderful Fire
Scene" and "hundreds OF other attire
tions" offered as Entirely Newl The
usual grand march was started with
. wonderful display Of red, yellow and
purple intermized with gold
and silver, but when the march WAS
over with, little color could be seen
owing to the tho density Of the a.
mosphere. There were many acts
which appeared doubtful on paper,
but which might have been pulled
of successfully that afternoon behind
the great cloud Of dirt which filled
the tent-nobody knows. Someone
saw part Of the fire spectacle and fat
ly denounced it a. the rawest OF raw
fakes and within the last day or two
that tho man who witnessed the
wonderful show Of bravery and empty
water tanks. is = man Of great integ.
rity.
But to come back to what the "old-
dest inhabitant" will tell in the fu-
ture to his friends seated about bis
hearth in reverential silence and
waiting for the awful climax. It will
be this, "Children, although the day
was mighty hot, it was q complete
FROST as q circus day."
