RINGLINc CIRCUS
At New Albany Tuesday Oc-
tober First. Great Spectacle
of "Joan of Arc" Added
to Their Show.

Ringing Arothers' Circus and
newly added $500, 900 spectacle
of Joan of Arc," will exhibit in
New Albany on Tuesday, October
/. The spectacle in itself is an
attraction that should bring
thousands of visitors from the
surrounding country. 1t is be-
yond question the greatest pro-
duction of it's kind ever seen in
America.
The worlds most skillful
scenic artists, costumers, prop
erty-makers, chorus directors
and stage managers were en-
gagged to mount the production.
A stage bigger than a hundred
ordinary theatres was built and
mad portable so that it can be
conveyed from town to town and
erected each morning in the
main tent. Thus the circus pro-
prietors have made it possible
for those who live in contributory
towns as we'll as in the large
cities to see this magnificent
wordless play with its cast of L.
200 characters, a ballet of 300
dancing girls, a grand opera
chorus of 400 voices, 600 horses
and a train load ofspecial scenery,
costumes, properties and mechan-
ical devices for producing such
stage effects as thunder. light
ming, storms, fires. and the
sound of battle.
In the old market place of
Rouen, France, there now stands
a monument by which the French
of today have sought to redeem
their part in the execution of
Joan of Arc, who on May 80,
1431, was burned to death on the
false charge of heresy after
having delivered her country
from the English and having
restored the crown to Charles
VII. History records but the
meager facts Of this strange
heroine of eighteen years, who
lead the armies of France victor
ious through English invasion,
and then, deserted by all. even
the indolent monarch whom she
preserved, died by the cruelst
tortue known with the name of
the master upon her lips. I'm
sung in poetry the name of this
simple peasant girl has come
down through the ages to be
reyered as that of a saint, and
whose wonderful powers and
whose bravery are verify believed
to have been of divine inspiration.
On the triumphant incidents,
the victorious engagements, the
final defeat of the English
armies, and the coronation of
Charles VII, all achieved by the
frail Maid of Orleans, has been
founded the inspiring spectacle
which gives Ringing Rrothers'
circus a new significance and
makes an attraction such as the
world in searching for amuse-
ment has never before found.
The regular circus program is
more than ever attractive. Its
company of 375 foreign artists,
its double menagerie and it's new
street parade will prove a great
surprise to those who attend
from this city. The event is one
that should not be missed.

 There has been a demand from thea tre-goers in every part of the United
 
 drama tization from the now famous story of Gene Stratton-Porter. It was up to A. G. Delamater, the well known producer of clean pIays,'' to comply with the popular wish and so the play will be seen at the Park Theatre, Tuesday and Wednesday, Oct. 29-30 There has been more popular play seen in New York or in any other city than "Freckles'' if capacity audiences are any standard. The millions of readers of the book and the millions who have not read it, are of one opin- ion, that it is the play of the decade. The dramatization is by Neil Twomey and the music by the Viennese com poser, Anatol Fsrieddand the songs this musician gives F'reckles to sing are among the sweetest he has composed; i; sweetest he has composed; they are catchy, and are sure to be the rage wherever heard. The presentation of this play in any city is an event in theatrical history and so it will be in this city.
