DesperAdo Tsmpts the Grin Rsspss
10 a New and Awful Circus
Thriller.

The spectacle OF a man 1eaping
from the dome of a circus tent and
landing below ON his chest IL the lat
est creation in circus thrmers, and
az usual with all new things, 1t is
one od the sensational offerings nf the
Barnum and Bailey Greatest show
on Earth. wffch will exhibit In Ma
rion on Tuesday, June 15.
1t, is impossible to describe this
DARING act. Desperado rs the only
man on earth who ever even atteanpt-
ed to do 1t. In all Europe his rash
performance created sensation and
IL is now being seen for the first time
In America. 1T is shock TO the
nenyes to witness the act, and al
ways during this number many eyes
are turned away.
Another sensation on the long ball
Is the act of Jupiter, a magnificent
horse, which ridden by q beautiful
girl, goes up in a balloon and comes
down amid a shower OF freworks
More than usual interest Is added
to the Barnum and Bailey Greatest
Show on Earth this season because OF
the fact that the free street paraSs
feature, omitted for the past several
years, has been etetstablished-in
in hts previous form, but O sthoBand-
fold more elaborate, Incorporating the
ideas of five years OF labor and
thought by artists ana designers from
Asia and Euope and the gathering
together during several seasons of
foreign travel on all the strange
peoples from many lands and remote
savage corners Of the earth.
This great circus is known never
TO repeat itself. When Il seemed
that the worlds materials, suitable
for parade exhibition, had been ex-
hausted, the street spectacle was
abandoned temporarily. Artists,
agents and inventors were sent to
every quarter on the globe in search
of novelty. Their labor OF five
years IS this season expressed in
street pageant the like of which has
not been seen, in all ages. 1

The native elephant driver never has
to bother with step ladder In mount
ing his beast after he has trained him
for a little time, for. the easiest way
to get up is to ascend by way of the
trunk. Standing In front Of the ele-
plant, the driver grasps him by the
ears, this being a signal that he wishes
to mount, and the obedient monster
promptly arches his trunk so that the
master can easily step upon it and go
right on up to the top of the elephants
head.
