William Roddy, agent Of the great
Sells-Floto Circus. is visitor in town
today. MIR. Roddy states that this pop
ular circus will be with us on the
25th day of May. and while here, de-
voted himself to making contracts for
supplies and doing the hundred and
one things necessary in order to
smooth the path for such an immense
attraction as he represents.
That the Sells-Floto circus will be
more magnificent in every way, larg-
er and better equipped, is an assured
fact, because the list of attractions
given by him presents one of the
most remarkable bills ever seen under
big tent.
The Sells-Floto tent this year has
been greatly enlarged and will be
capable Of seating comfortably 10000
people.
The price of admission will be %
cents or half that usually charged by
all the big shows. This policy OF pop.
ular prices commenced by the manage
ment of the Sells.Floto Circus last
year was so successful that il will be
continued This is probably the most
remarkable offere made in the his.
tory of amusements. II Is hard TO i'm.
agine how the Sells,Floto people can
make 1t pay, but the fact that they
still adhere to the innovation is the
best answer.
The usual parade will be given here
ON the mornig Of the performance at
10 o'clock, This will be the best meth,
cd OF judging conceTnig the merit of
the entertainment that is to FOLLOW

House, Corianton, with thoroughly

ment of that we'll known actor Luke

Joy is a prize unbousht and is

heaven, as a place, will compass it.
You must carry it with you, else it

Of eternal springs that hide the wa

RAILROAD MEN TO WYOMING
They Will Be Largely Represented
at Meeting of Wool hen.
BIG DELEGATION COMING HERE
At Conclusion of Sessions In Chey-
enne Delegates viii Board a
Train for Omaha 10 Attend
the National Meeting. -

a dozen or more prominent railroad
men are preparing to make their pres
ence felt at the annual convention OF the
wyoming Wool Growers association in
Cheyenne next Monday. They will leave
here Sunday
The Burlinston will be represented by
assistant General Freight Agent Mont
morenoy and John Petric. general live
stock agent. and ali OF the local live
STOCK agents who cover western Ne
oiaska and Wyoming. Among the North
western men will be General Freight
and Passenger Agent Miller: ]. Lever.
freight and passenger agent OF the WV
oming lines, and d. d. Cutler general
i've stock agent. While the Union Pa
cific will not send any men fron, the
general offices, all OF the live stock
agents who work western Nebraska
wyoming and Colorado, will be in at
tendance.
Here the Union Pacific freight men
viii resolve themselves into reception
committee to assist In entertaining the
delegates to the national convention of
the Wool Growers association that con-
Nenes in Omaha Thursday.
The Omaha men who 20 to tho -bsy-
enne meeting expect to remain until the
close OF the convention, accompanying
the delegates to this city. or those who
attend the convention at Cheyenne it is
expected that fully 600 will come to
Omaha for the national meeting. They
Will probably arrive on a special train
over the Union Pacific some time
wednesday night or Thursday morning.
They Are EntS asiastic.
Omaha railroad men are all enthus,astIo
over both the Cheyenne and Omaha meet
ings. They anticipate a large attendance
at both places and two very important
ana interesting meetings. They say that
the wool growing industry of wyoming
and the states tributary to Omaha trade
on the west has grown to such an extent
during the last five years that at this
time 1t completely overshadows the i'm
portance Of cattle raising. They point TO
the fact that all over the west cattle are
still raised, but instead Of the size of
the herds having increased they have
constantly and gradually diminished. On
the other hand, both the size and the
number of the flocks Of sheep have in
creased MANIFOLD.
Up in the Medicine Bow country, 100
miles or more north of the main line of
the Union Pacific in wyoming, where a.
rev years ago all of the ranchmen were
engaged in raising cattle most of them
have since turned their attenti-n to sheep.
AT the present time I'm this section there
are hundreds OF thousands OF sheep, most
OF which are eventually bound to come
10 the Omaha market Similar conditions
exist along the line Of the Northwestern
from Casper all the way through to Ian
der and along the Burlington from the
Nebraska state line to the Big Horn
basin.
