MANY GOING TO CIRCUS.
RingIins Bros. Expected to Draw
Crowds from Wood County.

The circus seems to be the popular
topic Of conversation these days and
many are making arrangements to
visit Toledo when Ringing Brothers
exhibit there ON Monday, June 18th.
The splendid new parade at 10
o'clock in the morning, the greatly
improved menagerie, a brilliant in
troductory spectacle, the sensational
mid-air automobile double somersault
and the greatest European company
OF artists ever seen under one canvas
are the features of this years exhi
bition, which the press and public
of cities where the show has been are
praising to the skies.
The Ringing Brothers are celebrat-
ing this season the twenty-fifth jubi-
lee year of their splendid enterprise
by giving the public circus enter
tainment that exceeds anything ever
done in the past in the way of amuse-
ments. They have searched the world
for novelty, they have imported at
great cost the most wonderful Euro
pean and Asiatic acts, they have had
builded in foreign studios and shops
the finest outfit ever used by a circus,
and they have so enlarged their al
ready gigantic show that twelve
acres of ground are now required for
their many tents.
The circus this year NUMBERS 1880
men, women and children, $50 horses,
80 camels, 40 elephants, 110 cages of
animals, 85 double-length railroad
cars and 300 parade vehicles. The
main tent is the largest ever built
The great program is given in three
rings, on two stages, in a vast hip
podrome track and in the spacious
dome. There are 375 performers, 300
of whom are making their first tour
of America under the management of
the Ringing Brothers.
In addition to the dangerous and
thrilling automobile double somer-
sault act presented by Miss La Belle
Roche of France, here are few other
remarkable features never before
witnessed in America: The Great
Mira Golem family, from the court
of the Shah of PERSIA the man from
France who walks up and down stairs
OF his head; Riccobono and his
Good Night" horse, which wears
pants, coat and boots, from Russia;
the pig that skips the rope and shoots
the chutes; the ape that stands on its
head the twenty-camel team in the
parade, and the remarkable zebra
tandem-riding act.
