After Nine
O'clock.
WRECK REPORTS FALSE

OFF Because of
That.

The Adam Forepaugh e. Sells
Brothers shows are with us TODAY.
and will give two performances In.
tact Since it was last seen in this
section of the country, this great
show has grown vastly. The i'm.
provements told wo1 ssrful tale OF
enterprise. In other places where
the circus has exhibited this season
the unanimous verdict is that the
Forepeaugh & Sells Bros. circus.
from start to finish, is in every sense
the best on the road.
Here in a nut she'll are the salient
features OF the splendid performance:
the marvellous aerial ac, of the
Human Butterflies the Ty-Bell
Sisters. a gorgeous and costly Europ-
can importation; the remarkable per.
formance of two men and superior
troupes of trained seals; the best
trained elephants in the world. the
funniest company of European clowns
ever seen; a complete aid startling

nous Rooneys and Correas; the great

ly the Alpine Company, the Hines
kimball troupe and Ranchette Broth
ers
1t would take columns to adequately
do justice to the show which is here
today.
The performance, this afternoon,
began at o'clock; this evenings at
s. 1t may be taken for granted that
the night exhibition will be practical
ly the same as the day-there will
positively be no hurry-up or cuts.
Forepaugh & Sells Bros. follow this
rule invoilably.
The following from an outside
newspaper tells the story: 1.-TWO hours
and half of solid pleasure was given
those who attended the. Forepaugh &
Sells Bros. show yesterday after
noon or last night 1t was not only
the biggest show that has pitched its
tents here for several years past, but
the best. The attendance at the af-
ternoon performance was large In
fact, it was beyond the expectations
of the management. In the evening
the big tent was filed to its capacity.
Country folks in large numbers came
into town early in the day, and the
lines and trains brought many more.
1t was gala day for the small boy,
and his little sister, too, for that
matter. Vendors of circus lemonade
did big business and circus peanuts
found ready sale.
The menagerie proved Of much in
terest to all the patrons Of the show.
1t included the elephants. camels,

crowd will tax the capacity of the

the logical place for holding it.
After plans for holding it have
been worked out some kind of a suit
able program will be worked out and
1t is possible that an out-of-town
speaker will be secured to inject
some additional enthusiasm into the
gathering and talk upon some special
topic in which the association is in
terested.
The association also believes that
an affair of this kind will be a good
one at which to enable Mr.. Dewitt
to meet the subscribers of the organ

no street parade was given at noon,
and disappointment was general. 1t

but lateness Of the hour in leaving
