Worlds Greatest Circus Soon to Visit
Fargo.

With an entirely new outfit and the
hearty endorsement of New York City
to it's credit. Ringing Brothers
Worlds Greatest Shows will, on
Thursday, June 30.-give two perform
ances in Fargo.
Each season finds this circus larger
and better. The progress that will
be noted this year is exceptional. 1t
manifests itself first in the new
pageant, built by foreign artists and
designers at the European workshops
of the show in Stoke on Trent, Eng
land. When visitors approach the show
grounds the size of the city
Of tents fills them with
amazement. The menagerie has been
increased and the main exhibition tent
is the largest in the world. 1t is a
labyrinth of stages, rings and gym
nastic and aerial equipment, filing
the arena from ground to dome. There
are 375 performers. Over 800 Of them
are Europeans. There are at least fifty
sensational acts on the long pro-
gramme.
There is an Introductory spectacle,
built on a scale Of magnificence never
attempted in the past. In it, 1900
people, over half the Elephants in
America and hundreds of horses are
used. The magic touch of the Ringing
management is evident throughout ev-
cry department Of the circus. New
York city unanimously, through it's
newspapers, stamps this show as the
best ever seen in Manhattan. The
programme is delightfully."- fresh and

IDEAL CONDITIONS
FOR AIR FLIGHTS

New York, June 13.-Such a little
thing as broken guy wire could not
keep Charles K. Hamilton on the
ground Sunday. In a pouring rain
Hamilton left the ground at twelve
minutes past six, last evening and for
ten minutes and three seconds circled
the lower end of Governors island
and lowered over the harbor.
In making his preliminary run over
the sand surface end of the island.
Hamilton bumped surveyors stake
and smashed guy wire He knew it
himself but nobody else did until he
alighted after beautiful flight and his
mechanics began to wind up the loose
ends.
There was almost no wind and the
heavy moisture laden atmosphere is
what an aviator likes. The heavier
the air, the better the heavier than
air machine lifts. So Hamilton circled
the island seven times at a height Of
perhaps 200 feet and then came down
with dive like falcon swooping to it's
prey. Twice he ventured over the wa
ter to chase ferry boats while pas
sengers craned their necks to see him
pass over and the captains footed their
whistles.

new and varied enough to suit all
tastes.
This is the twenty-seventh year Of
the Ringing Brothers as showmen On
April 3. 1888, they gave their first per-
Torrance in the public park of their
native city, Baraboo, Wis. The tent
was homemade. The seat planks
were borrowed from neighboring
lumber yard. The boys made their
own ring properties and gave the
performance. They had but one
horse. They all doubled in brass. 1t
would be impossible to begin a smaller
way. They had the right stuff in them
and they did not know there was such
word in the dictionary as fail"
During their first summer they did
not go many miles from Baraboo,
They had to travel entirely by wagon,
and their one horse was not equal to
the task Of a long tour. The following
season they had three horses. and
sometimes showed as far away from
their home town as a hundred miles
Today their one horse is suppIanted
by a train OF over one mile in length.
In a single season they often go from
Maine to California, and from Canada
to Mexico. Their history between that
one horse and their $50 horses Of to-
day reads like a tale from the Arabian
Nights.
There are five brothers in the firm.
Al Ringing is the equestrian director.

in the world can equal him in the

spoke at the courthouse here at Rug
by last evening. The courtroom was
comfortably filled, many of them
farmers. The address was listened to
with close attention and proved in
structive and entertaining. The speaker
had message to deliver and made a
very favorable impression. He had
many friends here before and made
many more, who will exert themselves
to secure his election.
It's the general impression among
voters that Professor Aaker has great
advantage over Mr.. Buchanan as ex-
perience, training and ability, besides
Mr.. Aaker represents the true spirit
OF the primary election law, while
Mr.. Buchanan seems to be Tom
Marshall's and the eliminating CON-

very well that vote for Buchanan is
vote to disregard the spirit OF the
primary.
