The Sheffield choir, OF Sheffield,
Eng, which was heard In Detroit
April f5, finished its tour OF the Uni.
ted States and Canada last week and
sailed from Seattle for the Fiji isl
ands On its way around the world. The
American tour was complete fail
ure financially, according to reports
Of those connected with the business
management, the only large audiences
attracted being in Detroit and Chat
ham, Ont. Just before the choir left
St Paul, Mimi, to go up into the
Canadian northwest, the advance
agent, William Gay, attached the box
office receipts and all available effects
for salary due him, in his capacity
as publicity promoter. According to
newspaper reviews and reports in the
musical magazines of the country, in
no city in the United States or Can
ada did the organization seem to
strike the populace as measuring UP
to the standard claimed and expected.
The last Of the monthly musical
services for the present season will
be given by the choir Of the Fort-st.
Presbyterian church, Sunday evening.
On this occasion. Maunder's beautiful
cantata, "Penitence, Pardon and
Peace" will be sung. The first per
Torrance of this cantata in Detroit
was by the Fort-st. choir In 1899,
since when il has lain on the shelf,
although Its many beauties deserve
more frequent repetition. At this
service, Mr.. LAWN will sing the fam
Gus "Ingemisco." from the "ManZoni
Requiem" by Verdi. The choir con-
sists OF Mrs. George s. Owen. so
prano; Mrs. c. II. Clements, alto;
William LAWN, tenor; Charles M.
Clohecy, bass, and N. ]. Corey, organ
list and director.
Lewis Weary will give q program
OF readings, serious and humorous,
and coster songs, assisted by Mrs.

excellent work Is well-known to De-
troiters and a most enjoyable eve

like Chevalier, Mr.. Weary does not

Can words describe the sensation
that you experienced when you be-
held for the first time In your life a
circus parade? Probably not. Lots
OF us were In arms and too young to
become thoroughly interested. But q
little later In life, when you were old
enough to walk and could understand
the names OF things and could distin-
guish between a brass band and a
steam whistle, or dump cart and a
gold chariot-it was at that age that
you really saw your first parade. for
that age is probably as far back as
your memory can carry you. 1t was
about this time that circus day took
precedent over every holiday on your
calendar.
You looked forward to the Fourth
OF July, you looked forward to the ten
weeks vacation from school during
the summer, and Thanksgiving and
Christmas were on your list, but the
circus led the procession and trotted
In class all by itself. You recall

how the first advertising car arrived
In town. You began to save your
money. And. finally, circus day ar

the parade. You stood on the side

way; or perhaps, you were perched
on tree or on lamppost. How you
did stretch the cords of your neck
looking for the first chariot with the
band and would look again In the d.
rection from which the parade was to
come. First came the big looking
glass chariot with the band on top.
Then some more gold chariots, drawn
by four, six, eight and ten horses.
Then some cages with animals. and
more wagons and more cages. Then
some riders on horseback and more
cages and another band. Finally the

with the glare of flaming arc lamps
that make the interior like day, open

to be had Of the Detroit river, has

The novelty Of the big canvas APP
peals to the crowds that throng the
popular resort these warm summer
evenings. High-class vaudeville aud
music by the Harris orchestra are the
attractions. The bath house at River
view will be a surprise to everybody.
They are entirely rebuilt. The open

Well, that was your first circus
parade. That was the first real cir
Gus thrill that tingled the blood In
your veins From that time on you
had the fever, and circus day became
the star day OF the year on your en-
gagement book. Circuses have
changed since those days, and
parades have changed. Year by year
they have become better, larger and
more stupendous and more gorgeous.
The Carl Hagenbeck and Great Wal
lace shows combined. present this
year an excellent pageant. Not only
in this day do they EXCEL all previous
efforts but the performance itself Is
given by the greatest aggregation of
artistic talent that money can hire.
The wonderful trained wild animal ex-
hibition that bears the name of Hagen
beck Is considered the most exciting
and most novel Of all circus exhibits

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Other
changes are to take place In Presi-
dent Taft's cabinet.
Look out for surprises" is the
warning of q man close TO the ad'
ministration.
That Mr.. Taft Is getting ready TO
throw over his entire cabinet-all ex'
cept the new appointees. Fisher and
Stimson- Is the remarkable predic'
ton made bu some of his friends.
According to this story the presi'
dent has In hand the designations Oh
Secretary of State Knox, treas
ury, MacVeagh: navy. Meyer; agri
culture, Wilson; commerce and labor
Nagel, Postmaster-General Hitchcock
and Atty. Gen. Wickersham.
These men are TO be succeeded, II
is said, by men more like Walter
Fisher and II. l.. Stimson.
The report Is entirely credible
Since the appointment OF Fisher and
Stimson nothing is impossible.
Time FOR Deliberate Action.
The explanation Is simple, It can
be best given in the words OF one OF
Mr.. Taft's best and franKest friends
This man said:
"The political situation from the
point of view OF Mr.. Taft Is desper'
ate. The president Is not very ex'
perlenced politician, but 1t does not
take a veteran to see how hopeless
are his prospects. His administration
has been failure. The November

is a time for. heroic remedies. Carry
ing the load of public disapproval,
which resulted In the Democratic and
progressive victories, Mr.. Taft knows
that he stands no chance TO be elect
ed, even X he can get the nomina-
ton. Even the nomination now be
gins to look vague. Something must
be lonesome way must be found to
unload
"why not dump the cabinet? Mr.
Taft honestly feels that nine-tenths
OF his political troubles are to be
traced to the kind Of cabinet with
which he has been surrounded. When
ne started his administration he pick
ed reactionary cabinet. Seven out
of nine were corporation lawyers

but to carry them out In differen
way, He proposed to carry them GU

made so much trouble for his pre-
! decessor

mistake. He finds that the advic'
given him by Aldrich and Cannon
was not good. The tariff which he LEI
