RING CIRCUS
HITS SALEM THIS MORNING AND
FOR ONCE YOUNGSTERS GET UP
AT FIRST CALL-GREAT COL.
LECTION OF WILD ANIMALS.
AN EDUCATIONAL SHOW.
It's here. kids!

It's here, kids!
The AL G.. Barnes big Three Ring
Wild Animal circus arrived in Salem
early this morning for two per-
formances today on the show grounds
near the s. P. depot, Long before
the average small boy was awake,
the rumble of red circus wagons
could be heard on the street
AS usual a large reception" was
at the depot to welcome the show
men AS quickly as the cars were
parked in the yards of the Southern
Pacific, the work of unloading began.
To the average business man, the
work Of unloading a circus train is
one Of the most pleasing incidents
on the program of circus day
Altogether 1t required three separ-
ate sections of 80 cars to transport
the show. Only the stake and chain
wagons, tent wagns and such bag
gage as necessary to the immediate
wants Of the encampment was car
ried on the first section. The No. 2
train arrived 30 minutes later and
brought the principal animal train
ers and attendants together with the
members of the executive staff and
the remainder Of the baggage wa
gons. On the third and last section
was carried the dens and cages con-
tanning the animals. AS fast as the
circus trains arrived, the work of
unloading commenced
The first part of the circus pro-
gram was the street parade, Headed
by four trumpeting military bands,
the monster pageant of the AL G.
Barnes circus this year was the
most pleasing ever seen here Many
Of the cages containing rare and
costly beasts were opened to the
public.
Promptly at 1 o'clock the doors to
the big show were thrown open. For
one hour students of nature had an
opportunity Of viewing the largest
collection of wild animals ever gath
cred beneath a tent. Preceding the
performance by 80 minutes a concert
of popular and classic selections was
rendered by the AL. G.. Barnes Mill
tary band of 2S soloists under the
direction of Prof Il. H. Markham.
The performance of the Barnes
circus, like every thing else this
year, is all new. Many of the old
circus features remain but for the
most part the program of two hours
is given by wild animals from the
jungles under the direction of theiI
trainers and keepers, Without 9
doubt the most pleasing Of the s!

Altogether It was a most pleasing
and thrilling performance and /
: more than pleased the big crow,
which filled the tent. The final per

doris to the big show will be opene,

SPORTING AFFAIRS.

LOS ANGELES, CAL. In one
of the most terrific, desperate battles
ever fought on the coast Jim Flynn,
with face beaten almost to a pulp,
was declared loser in the sixteenth
round of his scheduled twenty round
fight with Luther Mccarthy. After
the Pueblo fireman had twice been
sent to the canvas, Referee Charley
Eyton stopped the slaughter. Had he
not done so Flynn would have been
knocked senseless on regaining his
feet.

new PARTY MEET is
BROUGHT TO AN END
Roosevelt Returns East after
Progressive Conference.
Party Would Make Big Fortunes
Source of Income-Commissio to
Investigate Abroad-Matter of
Membership Dues Passed On.

Colonel Roosevelt said his last
'goodby' to Chicago loyalists when
he swung aboard a Lake Shore train
bound eastward.
He left Chicago convinced that the
machinery of the new Progressive
party is in working order for four
years steady campaign, the culmina-
ton of which, his admirers say, will
be his nomination again for president
in 1916. This is the result of the
three days conference here, now
ended.
In the organization scheme George
w. Perkins of New York, Medill Nc
Cormick of Chicago, Senator Dixon of
Montana and William Finn of Penn
sylvania Will be the guiding hands.
AS with the old party organizations,
the executive committee will have the
last word in planning the future of
the party.
Hits at MuItimilIionaires.
A plan decided upon at a session
of the national committee hits at
multimillionaires. 1t is comprehend
ed in the authorization of a commit
tee of seven, who are to go abroad
this spring to study the operation of
social justice laws in force in the old
world The executive committee is
to make up the membership of this
commission.
The commission is to take up the in
come tax question and graduated
inheritance tax.
The Socialist party plan for. dues
for membership in the new Progress
;sive party was passed up to the
executive committee to work out, il
that body deems it wise.
In the scheme of the party machin-
cry clause was inserted in the plan
adopted by the national committee
providing for the recall of officers of
the national body. This may be in
stituted upon petition of % per cent
of the membership. Politicians say
the old parties may now depose an
officer by a majority vote.
Provides for initiative.
The initiative is also provided for
in the report. A 25 per cent petit
ton will operate to cause the nation
al committee to take up any particu-
lar proposition such as percentage
of it's members deem necessary. The
Is per cent petition is to be directed
first to the chairman of the executive
committee asking him to act. If the
1oS 70 Ic
bership of the national committee is
to meet and take the proposition up.
Other features of the national com
mittee report contemplate:
Permanent headquarters establish
ed in New York with a branch in
washington.
Legislative reference bureau ere
ated. To be directed by three experts
who will work for uniform social JUS
tice laws in all states and in the ma
tfonal congress.
Money pledged by national commit
and guarantee of annual support
made.
Bureau to Be in, Washington.
The legislative reference bureau
proposed will be in Washington, d.
c.. and be in charge of three experts.
The executive committee was author
lied to name a committee of three to
supervise the installation of the ref
erence bureau. Miss Jane Adams,
DIR. Charles McCarty OF Wisconsin
and William Allen White of Kansas
probably will be named on the COM
mittee.

When Negroes We're Not Much in Evi-
 dence at the Chicago Convention

In an article from the inside" at the Chicago and Baltimore conventions in the September American Magazine, appears the following:
 The money placed among the overseers of the Southern vote, according to the accepted report, was enough to run the presiden- tial campaigns of both parties thirty years ago when we were simpler people. The Taft man. agers took no chances on the ne- gro delegates getting away from them and encountering tempta- ton from the Roosevelt people. Usually the negro delegates are prominent figures in the ante. convention gatherings. They
 
 like to display themselves in public, strutting around the ho> tel corridors with their breasts covered with badges. But at Chlcgo it was almost impossible to ind negro delegate on the Monday night preceding the op- enlng of the convention. They were actually under lock and Key One bunch of fourteen was held In Pullman car in Ohio and only rushed up on the morning or the opening day in time to vote TOT Mr. Root for temporary chalrman. Others were detained Ill rooms at the hotels until their readers marched them to the convention hall. What will YOU uo II they try to break away in tue conventin?' a Taft leader was asked. They wont dare to- he sad. The police would throw them out.

What They Ouarreled
 About

T never can understand why wom- an wants to keep room as dark as pocket!"
 And 1 never can see why a man cant read a paper without having every blind in the house wide open."
 Sunday noon-a cloudy Sunday when Paul had felt too tired to go to church and Frances had gone alone. Returning in the state of readiness for irritation that often follows spiritual uplift, she found her husband in the parlor, haloed by tobacco smoke and encompassed by Sunday papers. Every shade was up to its full height, every curtain pushed aside.
 The sermon had been on "The Sins Of the Tongue" If it hadn't been for that Frances felt she could have said volumes as she went about the room, strengthening curtains and shades. As her efforts narrowed the light which fell on her husbands paper, he looked up with some annoyance.
 You make l. so dark can't read" he commented.
 There's no sense is having every thing sprawled wide open like that. It makes the house look horrid to have the shades clear up to the top of the windows"
 Then came the remark with which this began and Frances retort. With the words a recollection of the sermon flashed into her mind and she shut her lips tightly and stopped to pick up the scattered papers.
 Here, I'll do that" said Paul. ris- ing lazily. But what's the sense of picking them up before I've done read Ing them?"
 They 1ook so untidy!" 1t except us, and certainly don't mind it!"
 And certainly dol" q beg your pardon. Of course, if they don't suit you they must go!"
 Do just as you please! don't care how you keep the place!"
 And Frances left the room with dig nifty, her head very straight To go to church and say your prayers and come home feeling happy and good, and then to be met by thing like this the moment you got into the house! What was the use?
 Like a profane echo came the mur- mur from the room she had quilted: "Oh, hell, what's the use?"
 Frances stood still. Should she go upstairs and cry or go back and laugh. Then-was 1t the sermon or the swear?-she began to giggle. That saved the day. She dropped into a seat on the bottom step and broke into shriek of laughter.
 "Hullo! Whats the matter?" from Paul
 Its so funny! Here I come home feeling pious and prayerful, and lose my temper the first thing and scold. and you swear! Say, isn't it funny ?'
 'Tf that's the way you look at it-'
 Well. 1t is! Leave your old papers all over the room if you want. and put the pesky shades out of the win- dows if you like don't care! I'd rather have any old mess than a row. Let's be comfortab&e!"
 Paul made circular grab at his pa pers. ''They may go hang for all of me, I thought you were going of to cry"

 Well, I'm glad to know how to break up a weep. One little 'cuss word worked the cure. By George, I'm glad I married a good snorti"
