fact that a warrant had been issued
against Lipas at the instance of Pet
roczi by Jefferson county magis-
trate but the man had never been ap-
pretended, no Indictment having
been returned by a grand jury and
the sheriff therefore had no record
of the case.
Magistrate Gordon has sent papers
of the case to Governor Dawson and
the latter will likely communicate
with the governor of Ohio who may
issue acquisitions papers for the pris-
oners If the proper legal proceedings
are compiled with at the instance of
the plaintiff, in Jefferson county. In
such event Lipas viii be taken back
to Jefferson county for a hearing.
Magistrate Gordon fixed the prison
er's bond at $500 but the man could
not furnish it. The prosecutor is
anxious to have the prisoner punish
ed as he says he lost a leg by the
wound the man gave him.

Forepaugh and Sells Bros Circus
Due on Sunday, Nov. 10.

Again comes the announcement that
Adam Forepaugh and Sells Bros
circus is to exhibit in Lafayette. on
Sunday. Nov. 10, and the news has
additional interest because of the won
derful growth of the organization
since it was last seen in Hhis part OF
n country.
SO much that is novel has been
added and so many of the 800 per-
formers are from Europe that Il cir
Gus of entirely original ideas and alb
solute newneSs is the result. With
three rings, TWO stages and a vast hip
podrome track, the performance takes
place under the largest canvas ever
made into one tent. The circus en-
piovs I.2O0 men. women and children
and 800 horses and has besides three
herds OF elephants, 800 other animals
and the brightest and best equipment
ever owned by a circus.
The free street parade represents an

shows itself in one long line of sur
prises, unfolding themselves in endless
variety. There is twice as much to the
parade as there is to thai of any 9TH
er circus, and every feature in it is ex'
elusive. AS to the performance, it
is the par excellence of scenic en-
tertainment, filled with European nov
elites, and Offering only the best and
newest. Thus the management has
gotten completely away from the path
well beaten by other ~circuses.
Another fortune has been spent on
fire spectacle, Fighting the Flames
which takes the place of the old-time
grand entry. 1t represents a busy
city on a fete day threatened with de-
structiou by a fierce fire. A battalion
OF forty professional iiremen battles
with the flames and rescues women
and children from high windows by
mean OF life-nets and ladders, The
climax of this fire-drama is most
thrillingly beautiful. The mimic city
