thousands OF their relatives, friends

greatest parade ever held by the or

uniforms were fittingly set of by the
beautiful decorations of the streets and
buildings. and the scene was one that
will not soon be forgotten by those
who we're fortunate enough to witness
It.
This magnificent parade was the
climax, in a spectacular way, of the
thirty-first triennial conclave of
knights Templar. which opened here
on Sunday, Aug. z. In accordance
with the time honored custom of the
grand encampment, the doings of the
week began with divine service.

he then took the shape of very
quiet, ordinary little man The public
particularly enjoyed seeing the go
rilla swing from the horizontal bar
by his tail. an appendage which is
very slightly developed in the species
as a rule.
This tail was a masterpiece of in.
genuity 1t was made of flexible steel,
and SO contrived that when it took

position until it was released by the
gorilla touching spring concealed
somewhere near his waist. The thing
worked splendidly for a long time,
until one day the gorilla put his tail
through the bars of his cage, and q
lady standing by took hold of 1t.
Well. the tail acted automatically,
as usual. and of course when she felt
1t tighten around her wrist the lady
screamed The gorilla pressed the
hidden spring to no purpose To make
long story short, the men. standing
by came to the lady's rescue, took
hold of the tail and pulled 1t off!

IN C|RCUSES
People Are Strangely Fascinated
by the MonStroSitieS.
When the "Domesticated Gorilla" Got
the Show Into Trouble-Hot
Water Spells "Mermaid'
to Uncover Fake.

London.--It seems strange that
freaks, from the legless wonder to the
two-headed calf, should possess such
a strange fascination for nine people
out of ten. yet this is undoubtedly
the case
Of course, there are many so-called
freaks which have no business to be
called by such an unpleasant name,
for II one argues from the dictionary
a freak is a monstrosity, and mon
strosity, in the generally accepted
sense of the word, is something hor-
rible The giant and the dwarf are
interesting and unusual, but certainly
should not be called freaks"
Hunchbacks were an exception to
the rule, for all kinds of powers were
attributed to them. There are some
very sensitive people to whom the
sight of anything in the nature of
monstrosity is absolute pain, and
women are fortunately few and far
between who fall in love with mon
ster because of his monstrosity, as
In the case of Victor Hugo's 'L'homme
qui Rit."
The ordinary individual comes
across very few physical freaks, and
one cannot but wonder whence the
showman's rank and file are recruited.
Perhaps. If the truth were known,
more than half of the show freaks are
flakes" There are many good stories
told of these sham freaks, who, owing
to some contretemps, have "given the
show away" The two following are
good examples:
Among the freaks of certain show
was "domesticated gorilla" to quote
the handbills. and he proved one Of
the finest draws the show had ever
had. After the performance no one
could have recognized the gorilla, as
