the Stadium are equally as strong. If
not as sensational. It is undoubtedly
the Stadium par excellence; it out
ranks in quality and quantity any
thing of the kind ever before attempt
ed. Other attractions on the Midway
that claim the attention of visitors are
the Katzenjammer Castle, where mys-
terry and fun abound. Here the Kat
zenJammer Kids are allowed full sway
and many practical jokes are played
upon the unsuspecting public. The
Crazy House is also a home of fun. In
the imagination of those who teke a
trip IN the Crazy House, everything
turns upside down, although when the
trip is ended everyone is righted. The
Palace of Mystery is an attraction
worth seeing. Feats of legerdemain.
Juggling, vaudeville sketches present
ed by attractive artists.
School Days is a bunch of merri-
ment in a school room, where Ger
man teacher has considerable trouble
in keeping his charges in order It is
replete with ensemble songs. popular
sayings, and brilliant comedy. Emo,
the Turtle Boy, is a really and truly
curious freak of nature. His arms
are curved like those Of turtle, and
he stands only a little over one foot
in height; delivers an interesting and
intelligent lecture upon himself, and is
rather proud of his ability to do So
for he was born and raised among
the Cannibals in the South Sea
Islands.
The Darktown Swells, a colored ag-
gTegation of performers, dancers,
singers and jokers, are up to. date
and gain much applause from their
audience. The Electric Girl is a mar
vel, who will exude shocks from her
body and lights articles simply by
touching them. She passes an enorm-
Gus voltage Of electricity through her
body with perfect impunity; electric
flames radiating from the ends of her
fingers, the nap of her neck and ears,
also from her toes.
The Alligator Girl is another plat
form freak WHO claims Georgia as the
state of her nativity. She has been
exhibited in every state of the union
and throughout Canada, creating a
genuine Juror wherever she has been
shown. Nothing has ever been seen
that has attracted more attention and
created more talk than this little girl
of 10 or 16 summers. She is accom-
panied by her mother and father.
The beautiful Orient is a replica Of
the sports and pastimes <of the coun-

BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
Chicago, Nov. 6.-Charles SchultZe,
a baker, made good a boast last night
that he would not be afraid to tackle
an armed robber" and today lies per-
haps fatally wounded in a hospital as a
consequence. Schultze had barely
spoken the words when two highway
men, armed with revofvers, walked
into a Wentworth avenue saloon and
ordered the baker, with several other
men, to throw UP their hands. True
TO his steel, Schultze sprang upon one
of the thugs and tried to wrench the
weapon from him. In the struggle
that followed he was shot twice.

His wife heard the shots and, running

ing dexterity, they lapse into graceful
acrobatic work without missing their

dance. They came to Mr.. Barkoot's

Der, direct from their third engage

the leading rife shots OF the world,
the lady shooting objects from be-

Although yesterday was the third
day since the trial began, the taking
of testimony in the case of Fannie NJ.
Sutherland vs. the Escambia Electric
Light & Power Co. was not completed
when the circuit court adjourned for
the day yesterday afternoon. Most of
yesterday was consumed in the hear

witnesses introduced by the defense,
and it is hardly probable that the case
will reach the jury before late this
afternoon atsthe earliesta
Much interest is manifested in this
case, because of the fact that this is
the second time it has been on trial in
this court, the former trial having
resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff,
but being reversed by the supreme
court some months ago.

the number is small. and when a
