the public today, takes it's place as
a standard show among the best in
the country.
At great outlay of money and
hard work these progressive gentle
men have been gathering together
from all over the world and adding to
their shows all. the extra attractions
that go to make up the best.
Famous acrobats. gymnasts, equili-
brists, contortionists, aerial perform
ers, dancers, fun-making clowns and
sensational specialties; besides the
daring riders and exhibitions of
handsome highspirited trained horses
and trained elephants, ponies, mules,
and dogs go to make up an enter
tainment that is unequalled.
The menagerie annex contains the
most complete and valuable collec-
ton of wild animals and ferocious
beasts from all parts of the world.
At 10 a. m. every morning, rain or
shine, takes place Campbell Brothers
great sensational street parade with
its hundred of horses with glitterine

HAVE HAD WONDERFUL GROWTH
What Campbell Bros. Have Accom-
piished in Past IL Years Is
Almost Miraculous

AS the CampDell BfOtnerS Gredt
Consolidated Shows are to be in our
city on Wednesday, June 19, a few
words in regard to the start and
enlargement of this show might be of
interest to our many readers. Some
II years ago they launched a small
show with the motto attached, Hon
orably Conducted, Truthfully Adver-
tised.'' This motto has made the
show what it is today. Their shows
have always been conducted on a
high moral plan, they never having
allowed any gambling, short chang
| ing or petty thieving in or around
their shows. Being imbued with the
spirit of progression, after years
of hard work and strict economy,
they became the proud possessors of
their first elephant and camel. The
was to them the proudest day OF
their lives. From that time on, every
dollar made has been invested to
the betterment of the show; from one
they have increased their elephants
to a large herd, also their camels.
To those of our readers who have
never had the pleasure of visiting a
circus in it's winter quarters, de-
scription might be interesting. Camp
bell Brothers winter quarters are
situated on beautiful farm, one and
one-half miles from Fairbury, Neb.,
On the Little Blue River. The first
building to attract your attention as
you approach the farm is the mann
moth horse barn, wherein during the
winter months, are stabbed their 25O
head of horses, which are used with
| the show Next to the barn stands
large building made of concrete
| blocks, known as the Cat building,
which is the winter home of their
| lions, tigers, leopards, cougars, hy-
| enas, monkeys, birds and so on. Next
| to this comes a large frame building
| tnown as the elephant house, the
home of their herd of performing ele-
| phants Then comes the Camel barn.
| the Shetland pony barn and the ring
barn This later building would be
Of special interest to anyone, as it is
where the cake walking horses, the
dancing elephants and Shetland po-
| lies are taught their tricks, and
| where the ladies and gentlemen rid
ers who appear before you in their
costly wardrobe and pleasing acts,
practice during the winter months.
There are many different depart
ments with a circus, each one having
it's manager and assistants. The )usi-
ness is conducted on plan or sys-
tenn equal to that of our Uncle Sam,
ise all would be confusion. Think
of your family increasing to 300
people to feed three times a day; of
moving your effects, which it takes
25 cars to hold mile, set up your
house, entertain 5000 people; tear il
down again, move back to the train
and railroad 100 miles to the mex,
town, and do it every "a hours;
and you may have some idea OF
what it is to handle a circus

ball and throw him ont. | crossed my
legs, and the first thing knew the ball
whiZzed past my head about two
inches from my nose. and when l got
through ducking and wondering how
escaped being killed l chased it to the
stand. The runner scored from Sec
oud, the other reached second and
scored on hit. and New York beat US
out by one run.
Egan had seen that he had lost the
runner going to first, and as he recov-
cred the ball he shot at third. figuring
that the runner coming up from sec
ond would make the turn and run up
toward home and that fast play
would catch him asleep around the
hase. 1t didn't. I was the one caught
asleep. If l mad been watching the
ball we would have caught that run
ner by twelve feet. standing still. and
5aved the game right there.
The play taught me that it wasn't
safe TO cross legs and take maps dur
ing baseball games, firstly because it Is
likely to lose the game, and secondly
because you're liable to have your
block knocked loose.

BY WILLIAM F. DAHLEN
Manager Brooklyn Team, Who While
a Player Was Regarded as One of
the Greatest Third Basemen
the Game Ever Has Known.

II has been so long since | made any
mistakes | really have forgotten them.
I haven't made a mistake of any kind
since | became a manager, and those
that I made before are nobody's bust
ness. It is just barely possible that,
when 1 was a player, l may have made
what other people thought were mis-
takes, but they weren't. Besides, If
ever did make mistake. or bone
headed play, I'd be the last TO snitch
on myself.
Yet 1t seems to ME that Trecall one
little slip. 1t was made when | was
Just starting in the business. 80 it must
have been forgiven long time ago. l
remember I took all the blame for 1t.
which shows that in those days ball
players weren't there with the alibi
on every play. Besides. most every
thing 1 ever did was blamed on me.
It was in a game shortly after l
Joined the old Chicago White Stock

you'll count back you'll see, by deduct
ing from my present age. that | broke
into the major leagues at the age OF
twelve, just one year Younger than
Clark Griffith was when he com

ladies used to say It was a shame for
such little boy to be out playing with
the old men. I WIS on third. replacing
Tommy Burns. who had been the idol
Of Chicago fans. and that made the
Job nice. Egan, the one we called
Bad Bill" was on second. It was In
a close game against New York, and
late in the game, forget whether the
seventh or eighth inning, New York
needed a run to tie us up, and had a
runner on second base with one out.
The ball was hit sharply to Egan and
it looked a certain second out, but he
fumbled it. The runner going to first
was very fast and Il was plain that
Cyan hadn't a chance to recover the
