JOY RIDING

Last Saturday evening two
young couples from Ebert went
JOY riding. They went to Kiowa
and after taking in the sights of
that great city, started at late
hour for Ebert. When near the
old Kiowa cemetary the machine
baked, tn y tried for some time to
start the old thing but without
success. The only thing left for
them to do was to walk to Elbert
distance of 64 miles, but this
was not so bad considering the
circumstances. They arrived in
Elbert in the wee sma' hours
of the morning. They secured a
team from Mr. Len Grin and af
ter soaring all of Orins chickens
off their roosts and awakening
everyone in that neighborhood,
they all started back to pick up
the machine. We do not know
exactly what time it was
when they arrived at home. but
rdmor has it that they got home
in time for breakfast. Perhaps
the next thing they will be irving
will be a moonlight walk to Den
yer, for they claim that the roads
are not a bit crowded and walk
ing is certainly fine.

SEASONS FIRST CIRCUS
BROUGHT CROWD HERE
ThrODgS OF People Filled
The Streets

1t was show day" in Americus, was
yesterday, the occasion which appeals
so strongly to young and old alike and
to the rustic black brother in rartic-
ular, and throughout the day the
.streets were crowded with gOod-natur-
ed thousands, bent upon seeing all
that came their way.
Every train brought in teeming hun
dreds from the surrounding country,
while the Tickety one horse shay from
down on the farm brought the color
ed farmer and his family OF uncoun-
table numbers.
The street parade was, of course,
the feature of the morning, and then
the multitude sprinted to the racing
park. where the city of tents was
spread.
Il was fact glaringly apparent that
the human color scheme here yester-
day was decidedly dark, eyidencinS
the fact that the other show soon 10
come here was borne in mind by other
thousands who probably preferred the
sawdust arena to the wild west article.
Despite the great crowd here, ex-
cellent order was maintained and
there were no accidents or casualties
reported by the police last night.
