Frs TENTED WoRln 10 BE
EXHIBITED HERE ON
ITHURsDAY.

The roars Of the big lions. the rum
5iihgs Of the mammoth elephants. the
slirleking notes Of the caliope, and
sharp terse commands Of hey, YOU
lfeliers, ( bring that bunch Of poles, this,
way and get a move on you Or 1'll,,8sy
etcs win soon be heard IN this city
once more, as, bound in this direction
and ue to arrive In Fairnfcnt; next
THURSDAY are the Adam Forepaugh'
and Sells Brothers Shows. and Of
course there is no lessening in the In
terest that always precedes the arrt:
val OF a big circus. The Forepaugh'
and Sells Brothers Circus should be
of exceptional worth as both toured
the country atone time as high;class
cfrcuses and. as the result of putting
the best features Of both together this
season should be a very inviting and
enjoyable one. Besides the united
shows have been rebuilt at a great
cost OF money. There are many novel
acts with the Forepaugh and Sells.
Brothers Big Shows which are certain
to be well received in every city lucky
enough to secure a visit from the con-
solidated enterprises. There are acts
which were never seen in America un-
til this show opened Its season Of
1910, for the reason that there was no
amusement enterprise great enough to
AFFORD the large salaries which the ar
lists demand and no institution with
sufhcient prestige TO attract the at:
tention of such celebrated performers.
This great big, handsome, newly re.
built Circus also exploits q grandly,
interesting geological display of ex.
ceeding; rare and odt.of-the-ordinary
animals The beautiful parade will be
the cause Of much sitting up and TAX
ing notice. e
Bessie and Tessls the famous Ger.
man lioness twin cubs, arrived from
Germany recently and Joined the Adam
Forepaugh and Sells Brothers Big Uni
ted Shows in Charleston and are now
demiciled in brand new cage, where
they will hold daily public receptions.
The sisters were greatly fatigued
after their long Journey in crates but
after a BATH and breakfast the twins
1faade friends all around with the 9th.
eft animals, and examined their sur.
rdpndings with interest. Nine. Mona,

GhaperpnsofSth naTcomsgs; and the
entente cordiale was established
through her Justly famed diplomacy;

Gus features are OF the very highest
class this year. The horses are the
finest ever carried with. tented en-.
terprise. The clowns are the funni.
est; elephants the largest; sea lions
the. best trained; acrobats the most
supple; aerialists the most daring;
riders the most wonderful; in fact ev-
cry feature stands out as the best,
that could be secured in Europe.
superlatives are also necessary to
describe the beautiful street parade
which leaves the show grounds daily
about 10 a. m. in which hundreds Of
well groomed and well matched hors-
es are attached to the band wagons,
open cages and massive carved floats.
The parade alone is worth coming
miles to see.s Everything absolutely
new and different with Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers circus this year.
