The report, that the circus clown
is passing away and would soon

report, which has gained currency
rom the report that one or two
big tent shows have this season
disrrnsed with the services OF the
merry Pierrot.
"a circus without clown would

| man. "Why, my only recollection
of nv first circus is of the elepll-
ant and the clown with the wide
pantaloons and the merry laugh.
The clown always has been and
always will be identified with the
circus. But Will tell you one
thing there is trpmendOn" diff

"Long ago a clown enter a ring

would come to a halt while he pro

"The clown OF the present does

succeed he must be a man OF lnven

They work in relays on the hip
podrome track and are never al

performers. They are permitted
the use of aids known as proper
ties. TO illustrate: A tall, hand

The clowns make love to her.
One wins her favor and suggests
a dance. During the waltz the
lady comes apart a. the waist line

a small boy in the skirt. Two of
the clowns work with goose that

"The clowns this season have
formed a club and have some gooG
times among themselves. To my
mind the average clown is like the

DISHONEST MORTAR THE CAUSE



San Francisco, June 20.-"Dishonest
mortar-a corrupt corglomeration OF
sea sand and lime was responsible for
,earlv all OF the earthquake damage in
San Francisco said DR.. T. Nakamura,
nrofessor OF architecture OF the lmper-
ial university Of Toxic and member
Of the committee dispatched to this
citv by the Japanese government to in
vsstiqate the effects OF the tremblore
and FIRE. DR.. Nakamurs will sail on

eminent.
az find." said DR.. Nakamura yester-
dav. "tbat much OF the damage TO San
Francisco from the earthquake was due
10 poor mortar and faulty construction,
and the greater portion OF the damage
to the class A buildings by fire was
the result OF misguided use OF hollow
thing and so-called fire blocks instead
OF concrete.
"There has developed as result OF
the earthquake in San Francisco, great
prejudice against brick buildings. How
ever, they are largely employed in
Japan, where earthquakes OF greater
severity than the one experienced In
this city are not uncommon. The &C.
cret Of their success, however, lies in
the fact that good mortar is used. The
mortar should either be composed Of
one part cement to two parts nf sand,
or OF one part cement, three of lime
and five of sand. The bricks should be
wet before being laid, and
when the mortar has set under these
a wall becomes practically
one stone."
