The Forepaugh-Sells circus had a
thriving Monday attendance. The
morning parade seemed to put all Los
Angeles on watch for the good things
behind the canvas city, and this curios-
ity should reach its height at the final
performances today.
The three rings and two stages with
the endless extras and overhead num-
bers keep all eyes employed, and 1t is
no small task to try to see everything
that goes on during the performances
1t is, in fact impossible to see
everything. Each ring and stage is
a show in itself, continuous and en-
tertaining.
The equine, the wild, the athletic and
acrobatic. the clownish ana the thrill
ing alternate with such celebrity that
it seems incredible how much talent is
really concentrated In few hours of
circus life. Evidently the manage
ment wishes to cater to all tastes and
I'm catering to get the best representa-
tive bills i'm each class of entertain
ment
