an unbiased reader Of the Light who,

the same conclusion as 20 their in-

If the building of Chinese wall
around the city of Waxahachie
would be- calculated TO promote the
growth and development of the town
and the prosperity Of the people
then the adoption OF either this
abandoned rider" or the proposed
general ordinance, would act as
an incentive 10 the furtherance OF
the interurban proposition. 1t is be
ing contended by those who are ia
thering this proposed law that it is
practically a copy of a city law now
i'm effect in Dallas. Granting that
such law may be necessary in Dal-
/ las, does it stand to reason that like
/ conditions exist here as do in the

a difference between Waxahachie

may be in favor Of Waxahachie in
much that is vital, a sense of fair

Another startlingg feature is pre-
scented by Albert Schumann's com
| pany of performing horses. Schu-
man is the proprietor of the Circuses
Schuman at Berlin, Scheveningen
and Frankfort, Germany. At his pro-
fession of training horses he has
made a fortune of $40, 100000. He
is the greatest animal trainer in the
history of the world The act that he
IS now presenting to Americans is
the master work of his lifo. IT is the
first time real trained horses have
ever been seen in America. The
horses enter the arena concealed in
large beer barrels piled on a brewery
wagon They are not discovered by
the audience till they kick the heads
out OF the barrels and jump into the
ring
Other European novelties are Of
fered by Prof Emory's troupe of
performing baby elephants, the most
remarkable act ever witnessed In
addition there are three herds of full
grown elephant actors, including the
famous Hello" elephants. Other ia
nous names among the European
specialists are the Alex family, aer-
ialists; the Croker family of Gypsy
riders; Alfred Loyal and his dog
somersault rider juggler and aero
bat; the Bonesetti family of aero
bats and the Cottrell-Powell eaues-
trians.
Great attention has been given to |
this years menagerie. It is a com |
plete new collection, secured by the |
