Magnificent Performances At Don Luis. = Wonderful Ex- hibition Of Feats Of Every Description.

Ringing Bros. world famous circus. with all it's attendant excitement, pleasure and confusion, has, for this yesF at least, become . thing of the past. But for many days it win live again and again in the thoughts of hundreds of young folk who visited the fairy wonderland of magic, gilt ter and mystery. Many of the acts will be rehearsed, and the goal of many a boys ambition has become definitely fixed
 The performance took place at Don Luis, four miles from the city. Excur- sion trains were run, and the "S. R. O" sign was most decidedly in order. In the afternoon, owing to the late ness of the show train in arriving on the grounds the program began a lit tie late, but the evening performance began on schedule time.
 The crowd, after round of looking at the animals, drifted into the i'm mense tent covering the scene of the performances and although the croYd seemed immense before being seated there was room for several thousand people left.
 In accordance with the custom q circuses since the time when the mem ory of man runDeth not to the con trary, the events of the evening were preceded by grand parade. In this was much that was instructive to those who would observe. The cos tunes of many orders of the Middle Ages were faithfully reproduced, the gorgeous trappings of the elephants as used by the monarchs of India were there, while the array of fine horses was well worth the price of admission to any lover Of horse flesh
 Then came the main performance in all its bewildering complexity. Many were the expressions of regret that all of the rings could not be watch. ed at one time. A man with an extra pair of eyes for sale could have made fortune in a very few minutes.
 The numbers were all up to the very highest standard of etCai'cncn knpwl to the circus world whI!o many oi the stunts" weie astounding in their revelation Of wha the physical man can be made to do. None the less sur prising were tk feat spceformed by trained animals. Noticeable among these was ther elephant who rolled nine pins and beat the drum with his tail: the horse who disrobed and went to bed and the one which kicked the rubber ball thrown at him high into the air; and the donkey, which with artificial horns, impersonated in re markedly life like manner Spanish bull in a fight with torreadoTs. The bi-and-mono-cycle riding, the tumb' ling. the trapeze work, and every oth' feature, were of the very highest or der. and all who attended expressed only the most favorable opinions of Ringing Bros. circus, which made en- tirely good the claim that it has the best show that is to be seen in this or any other eountryJ

CONVENT SCHOOL WILL OPEN
 M0NDAY A|llNN[lAAY
Enrolment Of Pupils Begins Al 8:30 O'clock This Morn ing.-Building Rapidly Ap- preaching Completion,

Although the final preparations in connection with the opening of the new convent an Higgins Hin in Tomb stone Canyon will not be finished un- til next Monday. the work of enroll ing the pupils will be taken up this morning by the Sisters of Loretto, constituting the teaching force.
 During the past few days the sis ters have taken charge of several rooms in the new building and done a great deal of work toward preparing them for the reception of the pupils this morning. Those parents expect ing to enter their children at the school for the coming term are ex- pected to either send them or bring them to the school building this morn ing after S:30 o'clock to have them enrolled.
 On next Monday morning the school term will be commenced, but that portion of the building which will be provided for boarding students will not be finished for some little time, as delays in the finishing of the in terior of the structure have been such that it has been found impossible to have this department prepared.
 The opening of the Convent school means much to the Warren district in the educational field as it brings to the work corps of women who have devoted their lives to the train ing of the young. and add an educa, tional institution of the highest merit to the already large list of first class schools.
 It is expected that at least 150 or 200 pupils will be enrolled in the new school during the first month. al. though there is no way in which accu- rate figures on this can be obtained.
