Friday was circus day. Howe's Great
London Shows arrived during the night
rom Mechanic Falls, and at early day
light the people began to gather to see
hem unload from the trains. The tents
we're set up on the fair grounds, and at
10 O'Clock the parade started. The five
elephants and five camels were as always
great attractions, the horses were sleek,
Sandstone and we'll matched, and the
costumes were brilliant and immaculate.
4 Altogether 1t was about the finest circus
parade that ever went through these
streets. Afternoon and evening the big
;ent of the show was filed to the extent
Of its seating capacity for the two per-
Iormances. There was such variety to
The acts that it would hardly be possible
TO pick one or two or three that were
pleasing. 1t was all good
and clean, and was certainly one of the
best shows that ever pitched its tents In
this plain. The only criticism of 1t is
that the clowns rather Overdid their
part, but what would clowns be If they
didn't overdo?
