The largest crowd of people
that has been seen IN this city
for some time was here to-day
to see Gollmar Bros enormous
circus The people come in
crowds from every section of
the country and not one of the
many went away disappointed.
The show gave a big street pa
rade at 1920 and it is no exag-
geration to say that such a mag
niticent parade was never wit
messed in this city before. In
fact they exhibit more in their
street parade than most shows
have at their performance. The
The performance was far super
ior to anything in the circus
line ever seen here and was
most literally patronized. One
feature of Gollmar Bros circus,
worthy of special mention, is
the absence of gamblers, pick
pockets. grafters and hold-up
men. The show is absolutely
free from all such chara letters
and was highly complimented
by it's many patrons tor their
good conduct and wholesome
exhibitiou.-The Citizen, Pop
