RINGLING BROS. SHOW SOON
-
Il Has an Array Of FOREIGN Tai.
ent New to America.

The greatest circus in the world-and
that is Ringing Brothers-is announced
for one performances in Tupelo on Fri
day Nov. the 9Th.
Since its last engagement in this neigh
borhood this great enterprise has grown
to such an extent that the question of
transporting it from place to place is
taxing the railroads TO the limit. AS
great as its size are the many acts which
go to make up a program that all other
shows combined cannot equal. 1t is all
novelty from start to fnish-nothing to
be seer that vas ever before presented.
From Italy m Daisv Hodgini, the
worlds greatest woman bareback rider
the Borsenis, who do an acrobatic act
while balancing on rolling globes, and
RiccCbono with marvellous horses, one
of which pulls off boot and trousers,
lights a candle and goes to its bed.
Persia has sent to this show the great
est acrobatic act the world has ever
seen-that of the Mirze Golem troupe,
who perform on pedestals. From
France have come the Legard acrobats,
whose work is not anything ever seer
in in this country. and the Patty Broth
ers who walk on their heads with their
hands held tight to their hips. In Ger
many was found De Kock trio, with
a dog that sits upright on the head Of
one and holds another upside down, bal
ancing with his head to the dogs head,
1t is like the ordinary three high stand
ing act-with a dog in the middle.
In Spain were engaged twelve great
performers whose acts are especially at
tractive. Principal of there are the Mar
nello-Marnite quartet of acrobats, who,
with bells fastened to their arms and
legs, play operate music while turning
h~andsprings and double somersaults.
Others are Alvarez a remarkable aero
batic head balancer; the Toreodors, who
do a grotesque bull fight that provokes
great laughter, and Marno, the funni-
est of clown gymnast. The Holloway
family. performing most wonderful
feats on a high wire, are of English i'm
p~ortation.
Besides these are the Bedini family,
the worlds greatest riders; the Clark
, o%niars, the best aerialists who ever liv-
60, the Belfords, presenting a new and
rtt sarlonal acrobatic act the Kaurmann
fanily of u~nicycle riders; the Jourdans,
. in me biggest trapese act ever presen-
ted. and Marguerite and Hanley, fam
Gus in the old world for an original con
ce, zion that defies description.
Novelty is the dominant note of the
great circus. 1t has nothing about it
that anyone in this country has every
seen before.
