PAWhEE BILL IN
 DOUGLAS SEPT. q

DOUGLAS, Sept. 13.-(Speciai.)-
 Pawnee Bills wild west and great far east show, one of the biggest and foremost of it's character of tented shows, will spread it's tents here on September 27 and give afternoon and evening performances. The enter prise travels in fifty cars, and comes with a metropolitan demonstration of supremacy and with a record of more than a score of years of ever increas- ing popularity and full of the honors of Europe.
 Its crowning feature, the great train robbery, is the creation of Arthur VoeRtlin. famnus as the originator nf the greater New York hippodrome stage triumphs, and was the sensa- ton of New York city last summer. A thirty-ton engine and two regula- ton passenger cars are employed. In it's final scene when Jim Dalton and his fellow outlaws hold up and plum der the express car and passengers it is a grimly realistic portrayal. The chase by the sheriff and his posse fol- lows, over real ties and tracks,
 through gulches and canyons over tow ering mountains. They rush into a somber forest where a battle to death
 ensues. The inception of the plot has it's scene in a rugged mining camp, with hotels, streets, dance halls, gambling dens, and all other features and figures of the frontier.
 Pawnee Bills explorers have ran sacked many remote countries in
 their search for amusement novelties, and have returned with horde, India was the object of their special indus try. For months they sought the most adept men of magic the country yield ed, and the result is an exposition | that startled American eyes-triclHs that for centuries have puzzled scien- lists and Iaymen.

 Pawnee Bill is of course the cen l tral and conspicuous figure in the
 wild west division of the show. He ] is a product of the days of the trail
 and the range, and typifies them gal lantly and picturesquely. The annals
 of the early west affords no more | lively and adventurous career than his. and he reproduces without illu- sion under canvas the life and en-
 yironment of the chapter of AmeH
 can history which he had conspicuous part in making.
