Some time sinst we published in
the Bugle big subscripshion offer
in the biggest type we could find in
the office, to the effect that if they
as wasn't regular subscribers would
send us the insignificant sum Of 50
we would send 'em the Bugle for
the period Of a year and a half,
which would be giving 'em this
newspaper six months free gratis
for nothing.
We stated furthermore that I'M
less we could raise some ready cash
within the ensuing 10 DAYS the Blu
gle would likely be obliged to sus-
pend publicashion for a week or
two.
In response to this fervent appeal
we received just So, representing
one subscriber, who told US he in
tended to subscribe anyhow.
We have now been editor and
proprietor Of the Bingville Bugle
for 10, these many years. In that
period the Buglc has seen many
vicissitudes and few hard winters,
but we have stuck to the helm of
our Washington hand press and
steered her safely through the
shoals of adversely. We have allus
stood up for the town and have
never lost an opportunity to say a
good word for our municipality, al
though we sometimes had to lie to
do it. We have faithfully chronicled
every birth that has took place in
our midst; we have reported in the
columns of the Bugle every mar
riage that has took place in our
we have wrote some beau-
tiful notices of people when it ac-
tually hurt Our conscience to do il.
being as they owed us several years
subscription at the time.
Loyalty to Bingville has been
our motto, and yet when we get tip
a big prize subscripshion offer in
order to get little money to paw
running expenses all we get is So. |
Do the citizens of this town think
we can run the Bugle on wind?
There are several people of Binp- |
vile who wear good store clothes
and go to church on Sunday. and
yet the unprincipled cusses haven't
enough loyalty to take their home |

also the ones who are always run

CIRCUS!
That's What Come to BingViIIe
Like a Theef in the Night, as
You Might Say. Il Was a AW-
ful Big Surprise and Was
Worth the Price Of Admission
---PaTtickleTs as FOIIeTs:

There was a turriblc big time in

trapper. had went out into his back ward
10 get some kindlings 70 build fire

10 look up and seen a animal passing
along the street in front OF the house.
which made Wessc's hair stand right
up straight on his head Wes said he
had never seen such a Critter i'm all his
born days and never expects to again.
II stood higher than a horse and was
a dark mud color, and what's more II
had tail on both ends and was NOV
ing along silent ard quiet like in the
middle OF the road. but Yves didn't
know whether it was going backwards
or forwards. WeS he was lust going tO
run into the house after his Old nuzzIe
loader shot gun, when he made out
man walking along beside the critter.
who Yves hollered to and asked what
IN thunderashion that was anyhow he
had with him, and the man said If was
a baby elephant, and told Yves that the
rest OF the circus was bringing up the
rear.
News that there was circus in town
travelled like wild fire. Il seems that
they had showed the day before at the
20. seat and had travelled all night so
as to give a performance in Bingville
Thursday afternoon and ev'g. The
manager of the circus hired Cy Hos
uns' pasture and by o'clock the tents
was up and word had been carried from
mouth to mouth until everybuddv in
Blngville and the surrounding country
for miles and miles knowed about the
circus being here.

there was a awful rush for tickets.
which was 25 cents each and IS cents
for children under u years. As editor
and prop Of the Bingville Bugle we
got in on a free pass. and what we
seen for nothin simply beggars de- |
scripshion.
There was also a side show, which |
charged 10 cents admisshion and con-
tanned fat lady, a human skeleton and
a snake charmer. As for the fat lady. |
she wasn't very much 10 look at and |
It was a general opinion that she didn't |
weigh much more than Mrs. Alb Snyder
OF Bingville. After Mrs Alb had saw |
the fat lady she said she guessed she |
and Alb would break " Housekeeping
and start side show themselves, with |
her as the fat lady and Alb to take
tickets. Alb says he believes he could |
make more money that way than he
could farming.
Everybuddy felt sorry for the huu1an
