To parade or not was question
that the big circus magnates pom
dered over with much deliberation
during the meeting of the advisory
and executive committees of the big
amusement combine. For the past
three years Barnum and Bailey cir
Gus has not given a parade, but as
that show has become a possession
of the Ringing Bros. the question
of change of policy was brought up.
For time it looked as though the
circus parade would be a thing OF
the past, but Norris & Rowe heid
out tenaciously for the street pagent,
and won out in both committees, ana
as result all of the three big cir
cusses will continue the parades, put
will put them on much more elabor-
ately than heretofore. BY the ar
rangement of territory the Barnum
& Bailey circus will be seen In the
New England states; the Ringing
Bros. in the Middle west and south
ern states and Greater Norris q
RFowe circus, museum, menagerle'
hippodrome and congress OF nations
will be seen in all the cities west OF
the Rockies BY this arrangement
the territory will be equally divided
among the big shows. The Barnum
& Bailey circus opened their sea-
son in New York; the Ringing
Bros, in Chicago an dthe Greater
Norris & Rowe circus in San Fran
cisco. where 1t exhibited for thirty
DAYS to 279,S73 paid admissions,
which is more people than ever be-
fore attended circus In that per-
iod, in the history of the west. The
performers that they engaged for
this seasons tour are mostly of Eu-
ropean reputation. The show has
been enlarged to such an extent that
1t now compares favorably with the
two big circuses In the combine. The
press of San Francisco were unani-
nous in proclaiming the Norris &
Rowe circus to be the best ever seen
in the city. The public, evidently
concurred in this opinion, for they
attended the performances, and theil
applause was sincere and prolonged
| The big special features of the Norris
| & Rowe circus this season Is the con
| gress of nations, wonderful spec
tacular production, in which repre-
sentative athletes from all quarters
OF the globe, decked out in the vari
colored costumes of their native
lands appear. The Norris & Rowe
circus will be the only big show t
| visit the west this year. They vii

Pennsylvania Farms Produce Won
derful Crops.

derful Crops.
Crop reports from ever the state
indicate that Pennsylvania farmers
will accomplish some remarkable
feats during the present year, If the
rural correspondents of the Phila-
delphia papers are to be believed.
Stories are coming in by the dozens
regarding the products of Pennsyl-
vania disciples of Luther Burbank.
and in many instances the plant
wizard of California is hopelessly
distanced.
From Wilkes-Barre comes the We
racious story of wise agriculturist
who has perfected succotash plant
by crossing sugar corn with beans.
The resulting plant is said to afford
remarkably fine quality of succo-
| fash.
Another Burbank, residing in Ris-
| ing Sun, has taken the lemon tree,
the soda bush and the rye plant and
crossed them in scientific manner
and produced cross between tree
and a bush on which grows the fin
est quality of rye highballs.
| Abraham Sell--the name, 1t Ia
hoped, has no special significance
is an Acorn farmer and has SO i'm
proved his own private brand OF
corn that the stalks have been grow
ing so rapidly that the noise they
make resembles battle. Several
persons residing in the vicinity OF
Sells field have been driven almost
to distraction and threats were made
to have Sell arrested for disturbing
the peace, until he succeeded In per-
fecting a mechanical device which
prevents the corn from growing al
night, thus allowing the neighbors to
sleep.
| Less startling but equally wonder
| full is the story that comes from
/ truthful correspondent at Murphy'i
Cross Roads, where John Slavin hal
crossed the common Irish potato O.
commerce with the butter bean ant
thus produced butter potato. A
Gainesville, it is reported that an In
vestigating agriculturist has effected
a cross between ordinary oats and
burning bush, thus growing oats al
ready cooked. Next year he will at
tempt to graft the milk weed, to tn
end that the morning dish Of cerea
may be ready for eating.
Many other stories of remarkabl
agricultural and horticultural exper
iments have. been sent to Philadel
phia papers by rural reporters, Blu
some Of them appear to be slight
exaggerated and the careful new
editors of the Quaker City will re
frain from giving them publicity un
, til the facts have been carefully al
certained Eek.

Bisbee daily review., 1908-02-29

President ocsevelt is keeping his
pen and mouth going concerning what
he is goinget to do to those who are
guilty of violating the laws of the
land. The president win not be crit
tied because of his desire to bring
the criminal trusts and railroads to
book, but the belief is growing that
the president could do more good and
less harm il he would, allow the pub
lie to judge of his policies by the
good accomplished. 1t is well known
that so far as legislation is concerned
the administration of President
Roosevelt is now practically at an
end. There is no likelihood of any
important measures recommended in
recent messages from the president
being enacted during the, remaining
lays of the present congressional SEES
sion; the republicans will follow their
old time policy of doing nothing just
the eve of a presidential election.

Bisbee daily review., 1908-02-29

Sims Ely, private secretary OF Gov
ernor Kibbey, is out with a three-col-
umn article in the Phoenix papers,
answering some points made recently
by the Hon. ]. c., Adams concerning
his trip to Pima and Cochise county
Adams was bold enough to state that
the republican delegation from Ari-
IONA to the republican national con-
vention should go uninstructed and
that no federal oficeholder should be
found on the delegation, and this was
sufficient to get under the hide of the
boys who are feeding at the. pie count
er and who are trying to insure a con-
tinuance of the political provender
in their direction. Word comes from
Phoenix that Adams has put his po-
litical '1njuns" in training for the
combat in Maricopa county, where it
is proposed to have a delegation op-
posed to instructing the republican
delegation from Arizona. And in the
meantime Yavapai, Yuma, Pima and
Cochise county are said to be prac-
teal unit against the proposition to tie
the delegation to Taft or any other
candidate.
