 Four hundred and fifty perform CTS left Pine Bluff carly this morn ing on a special train of Pullman cars for Chicago, New York. Phila.. delphia, Cincinnati and other points throughout the East, West and North. The fact that the Cotton Belt carried out majority of the Iclrcus people amply shows that the work of the several Cotton Belt representatives yesterday was ef- fective. This road evidently got the larger bulk of the circus busi- ness, the patronage being distribut- ed over various lines at the termi- nus of the Cotton Belt road.

The circus trains upon which were loaded the horses, wagons, animals and paraphernalia at the close of last nights performance, left Union station at intervals this morning. Three special trains departed dur ing the night; one train. the last of the four, will leave Pine Bluff this afternoon. All of the trains are routed over the Cotton Belt to Cairo. Part of the show will be sent from that point to Baraboo, Wisconsin, and the other half to Bridgeport, Conn. Winter quarters have been established there by Ringling Brothers, who own the torepaughS Sells show, and who recently purchased the mammoth Barnun and Bailey shows, giving them control of practically all of the large circuses throughout the world.
