1t must surely be because the big tent

In the way of circus attraction. the

AS ADVERTISED.

There was Il thriller, though, which
surpassed all others in the length,
depth and breadth of thrills admins
tered in its accomplishment That
was, of course, the double automobile
loop the loop-stralghtaway act and it
was a marvel. There was no trick of
foOlishness about the auto act-it was
just as advertised on the posters-the
red car went down the steep incline
first and described a forward somer-
sault in mid air and at the same time
the white car-each containing wo-
man securely strapped inside the
cushioned seats-dashed down the in
cline and by throwing of levers was
given n straightaway lung which sent
the car flying through space I'M
mediately under the red car as 1t was
describing a circle in the air above.
The white car and its occupant dashed
over an incline to the ground while the
red one came down on all tours, at 1t
were, with a great resoundiug thud
which showed there was no "shenani-
gan" about II. The women were UNI

none the worse for their thrilling aerial

GOOD MENAGERIE.

The menagerie was a source of sat
isfaction 10 young and old. The fea-
ture of the exhibit was undoubtedly
the baby elephant, which was born on
March 4 of this year. at Woonsocket.
The infant is now about two feet high,
weighs 200 pounds, and is the "cutest
little thing ever seen, He partakes
cluded in his daily menu being 16
quarts of Pasteurized milk The
baby's father, Mandarin, is an ele-
phant of 1000 pounds weight so
the tot" has yet 10 grow some to
keep up to his paternal ancestor.
Another feature was the exhibit of
kangaroos, and the crowd around this
cage was large all day. large zebra,
with markings more numerous and
distinct than any other specimen ever
brought to this city, was also an OBJ
iect of much interest. Several baby
camels which had. however, largely
outgrown their "babyhood" were
centers of interest. while three great
spotted. long-necked giraffes calmly
chewed their cud in altitude which
would require sky-scraper elevator
to get into close acquaintance with.
These animals were brought from
Abyssinia, and are among the few
specimens now in captivity.
ORPHANS ENTERTAINED.
The circus management made the
hearts of the orphans of the city glad
with mplimentary tickets to the big
performance. The little ones were
gathered up from the State street, st.
AIMS and Canyon Crest institutions
and taken down TO the big tents
treated to circus lemonade and pop
corn, escorted through the menagerie
and circus and back over the street
