and everything put in the best Of
condition for summer
The board decided to erect band
stand at Garfield park, and to place
enough benches there for the accom-
nioation Of crowds at the concerts.
1t is hardly probable that a grand
stand will be erected at the bark,
as the baseball enthusiasts desire.
The clerk was instructed to ad
vertise for bids for sandstone side
walks to be laid on both sides of
Henry street from Darius 10 Buckeye
on the south side of York street be-
tween Laturette and Flies avenue,
and on the east side of Scranton
avenue between Silver street and the
south line OF lot No. 4312. The bids
Will be opened at the meeting to be
held April 16. The board decided
that in the future. 1t will open bids
and let contracts at the regular
meetings instead of az noon as has
been done heretofore.
III. w. Mann was awarded the
contract for laying 5000 feet Of six
inch and $500 feet of 2 and 1-2
inch sandstone cross walks. The
total cost Of the work will be $3.50.
Member Morganthaler reported
that he had talked to a large num-
Der Of persons in regard to the
arches over the public square, and
all estimated the cost of the pro-
posed Improvement and repairs at
several hundred dollars. The board

electricians to do the work and will
pay them by the day.
Mayor Scherff was present at the
meeting ana talked to the members
IL regard to the failure Of contract
ors to take out building permits. He
said that through the issuance of the
permits, $64,504 had been added 10
the tax duplicate In the past three
months. Council has instructed the
mayor to keep after the contractors
and make them take out permits
II is stated that many times the
houses are constructed without per-
mits, and it is several years before
they go on the duplicate.
The mayor stated that he will
assign policeman TO make trip
over the city and bring to time
those who have failed to comply
with the ordinance. After that is
done George Blum, the street com
missioner will report as far as is
possible the new houses that are
being erected. Every offender
brought before the Mayor will be
fined and made to secure permit.
II Is believed that the practice will
be stopped II this method Is car
ried out.

Big SHOW COMES SOON
Adam Forepaugh- Sells Bros.
Circus Now Biggest of all

| 1t Is pleasure to once again an
npunce the coming to Marion of the
Adam Forepaugh and Sells Bros.
shows, the date Of the exhibition be-
ing Monday, April 90.
Since last seen in this section OF
the country. this circus has added
to, frightened and strengthened its
various displays, until today there is
no question that IL stands foremost
among the circus enterurises of the
world. With three rings, two stages
and vast hippodrome course, It's
exhibitions are displayed beneath
the greatest spread of canvas ever
made into one tent. Another tent
almost as large. is used to house the
menagere which Is practically q
complete geological collection.
Some idea of the magnitude OF the
Adam Forepaugh and Sells Bros
circus can be had from the fact that
s2 double cars are required to trans
port 1t from place to place; the
employees number 1,200 men, women
and children; there are 500 horses.
the three largest herds of ele-
plants in America, and canvas
enough to cover seven acres. The
free street parade represents an out
lay of one million dollars-spent in
giving 1t novelty, a grandeur and
variety to be seen in no other street
display. This parade is twice the
length OF any other and not one
feature Of it can be seen with anoth-
er show. Costly and gorgeous as It
is, as varied in its attractions and
striking in its surprises, 1t but faint
lly expresses the superior quality and
novelty of the performance.
The 300 performers are for the
most part European talent. new to
this country, the aim of the man
agement being to get completely
away from what other circuses are
presenting and give the people the
best. Another fortune has been
spent on the spectacle of Fighting
the Flames" which precedes the reg
ular performance. A city filling the
entire arena with pedestrians, trolley
cars. automobiles and other vehicles
and with every semblance of a great
commercial center, is thrown into
confusion. by an immense fire. A
battalion Of forty professional fire
men with latest improved battery of
engines, hook and ladder wagons
and hose carts, arrives on the scene
and great battle with the FLAMES
and the rescue of women and child
ren from high windows ensues. It
is the most absorbing dramatic spec
tacle ever devised.
The trained animal features are
other striking novelties. Chief
among these acts are the bears of
the great Spessardy, seen for the
first time in America. Some of the
most ferocious of jungle beasts per-
form astonishing acts in a steel
arena. Other great acts are those
o: the Flying Fishers. the LIE Vans,

Nettie Carroll, the worlds greatest

ReoGustnent

The present financial furry is ap-
parently nothing but REIMBURSEMENT
from speculative to real values. This
applies not only to securities, but to
every article of commerce. Prices
were driven upward on the plea of
great national prosperity until re-
action was imperative. AS sign of
the times it is noted that Cudahy, the
Omaha packer, has reduced the price
of meat ten per cent.
There is no such thing as finan-
cial panic, nor is there sign of COM
ing hard times, because the distur-
bance is local, that is, it is confined
to the United States. Hard times are
the result of over-production through
out the world. The past experience,
1S92-1S97 began with the failure Of
Barring Bros.
The contraction of values from
speculative to real will have the effect
of placing our financial condition
upon a sounder basis, and must con-
duce to more general as we'll as a
more protracted prosperity. There is
no danger for any conservative bust
ness. If people will keep cool ant
attend to business as usual, the pres
ent condition will be relieved in :

PRESS POINTS.

THE RIGHT POSITION.-We
agree with the school directors that
measures should be taken to prevent
the ostractism and illtreatment OF
the children of Italian, Syrian and
Russian-J Jewish parentage, but it
strikes us that the proper measures
to be taken are not the segregation of
"the races" but by impressing the
teachers that a part of their duties
is to preserve order among the
children. These teachers should
make it known that any infraction o.
school principles, or INSTRUMENTATION
on the part of the children will be
promptly met by punishment, and IL
repeated, by expulsion of the malcon-
tents. If these anti-alien displays
are beyond the school limits, then the
laws of the state of Mississippi can
be invoked by the victims of PERM
cious practices.-New Orleans Jewish
