CRAZED SPECTATORS

Very Fortunately no One Was

Dropped by Boy in Bleach

(American News Service)

Schenectady, N. Y, May 21.-The
main tent of the Barnum & Bailey cir
Gus caught fire this afternoon during
the performance when the great can
vass walled enclosure was crowded
with 1900 persons, and burned COM
pletely within less than an hour.
in an instant thousands were engaged
in a mad scramble for exits. Circus
employees kept their y heads and
worked valiantly to check the excite
ment, but in the rush for safety they
were swept aside. Several of them
were knocked down and trampled un-
der foot by the frantic crowd.
Men, women and children tumbled
off high decked tier seats to scramble
and fight with one another in heaps
upon the earth below. Regaining
their feet they ran into the rings, en-
tangling themselves in guy ropes and
falling over the show gear

verely and hundreds tainted and were
carried out by policemen. firemen and
show people.
The fire is thought to have started
from lighted match that was dropped
by boy in the bleachers. The blaze
started on a guy rope and climbed to
the roof which burned as if it had
been coated with oil.
Flames spread fast, feeding on the
acre wide stretches of dry cloth and
painted poles.
First reports were that a number
of persons had been injured, but the
circus management was able to assure
the city authorities that only single
spectator had been hurt and that while
few circus people had been injured by
falling debris, none of them was in a
serious condition.

TAIL WAS NOT LOST
(American News Seryice)

Chicago, May 21.-Prof. E. E. Bar
nard to day stated emphatically that
the comets tail has not been lost,
thereby disagreeing with his co-lab-
orer, Prof. Edward Frost.
"The tail is still with the comet
where is belongs" he said. ''It is only
because of the atmospheric conditions
and the bright moonlight We have been
having that we are unable to see it.
We may not be able to see it Sunday
night, but Monday night the condi-
tions will be propitious. Then the
moon will be eclipse and 1 am pretty
certain that the tail will be found to
be in it's accustomed position-with
the neuclus or head. and in the west

mules.
But there is another phase of the matter not
shown in the map. This is, that the mules we're
not raised In the South. but bought from the
Northern and Western breeders, and paid for out
of the Southern farmers crops. With only mules
on the farm you cannot raise mules and while
the mule is probably the best work animal in the
South, We should keep more horses and mares and
raise the mules instead of buying them.
