plain that he didn't know that the
circus was comm to town" The last
person to arrive in town is the twenty
-four hour man He liz the last word
in preparatory tactics. He goes to the
lot and sees that everything is all
right; then he sees the chief of police
and they lay out the parade route. At
the depot he arranges to have all the
crossings guarded for the wagons.
Then he picks ou the route from the
depot to the lot that will be easiest
on the horses.
This man also sees that all the feed
will be on the lot, and orders from
butcher. baker and groceryman every
thing for the commissary department.
You may see him casually go into a
butcher shop and order three or four
hundred pounds of lamb and one hun
dred and fifty chickens with the ease
of man doing little private market
ing.
Circus people follow the early to bed
and rise maxim willingly, and by six
o'clock in the morning when the sun

taking an early survey of the earth
four or five hundred pile drivers will
be on the grounds working as If their
breakfast depended upon their speed
as indeed it does. For a while every
thing seems a world of confusion, but
order comes out of chaos, and by the
time the three miles of parade won
ders start from the lot things are we'll

nance. Wonderful, indeed, is the or
ganization of the circus.
This season, in addition to their
promised array of aerial, acrobatic
and arena marvels the Ringing Bros
have produced a gigantic spectacle,
Joan of Arc, on monstruos stage err
ected in the big top. There will be
twelve hundred people taking part in
all, three hundred ballet girls and a
large chorus. This is said to be the
most elaborate and sumptuous pageant
ever presented in this country. 1t Gre
ated an enormous sensation at The
Coliseum in Chicago. Also there will
be many new sensational features,
such as the Ty-Bell Sisters, who give
an original serial act, and Caesare,
the Human Top. The zoo contains 100
specimens.

Tho Earl and the Ahaler.

One Of the earls Of Mimic had a
kindly nature. One day Hawick an
gler was throwing his line on the river
near Mimic when tall gentleman
came up to him and inquired what
kind of sport he was having. The
fisher replied that it was not very
good and that he could do better It
he were at the other side Of the water,
adding. "Pll gle We sixpence ii yen
carry me across" The bargain was
struck. and the gentleman. getting the
angler on his back, carried him through
the water to the other side. True to
his promise, the angler produced the
sixpence. which he proffered to the
stranger. who. however. smiled and
remarked. Give it to the first beggar

An invading army that batters down
the outposts of gloom and enthrones

the long yellow trains of The Ringing
Bros, circus will come into Richmond
tomorrow, bringing with it over 1900
souls, a caravan of wild beasts and
$50 horses, and all the necessities of a
little, modern city. Tuesday morning
flags will be waving and huge pillows
of canvas will be erected on the show
lot, saw-dust will be sprinkled over
show speiler will remind the early
corners that THE parade, ladies and
gentlemen, will not be back for one
long hour, so meanwhile see the Won
ders that paralyze wonder and beckon
the marveling imagination"
Each year the circus comes around
with the tardy arrival of the spring,
after taking, it would seem, a long
winter sleep. This, however, is far
from being the case. The Ringing
Bros. Circus wintered at Baraboo.
Wis, and all during the long months
men were at work on properties, fur
nishing band wagons and parade equip
ment, and keeping alive the machinery
that sets the circus in motion when
the signal is given to take to the road.
Those of the performers who do not
go abroad live in the town where the
circus winters, and during their vaca-
ton are busy rehearsing new acts and
lending variety to their old feats.
1t is an interesting fact that nearly
all circus people are well fixed f1nan-
cially-but this is not really SO strange
as it would first appear. The teamsters
for example, must not be judged by
their rough exterior. The bronzed
faces and weather beaten figures seat
ed upon the heavy vans have many of
them been with the circus for years.
Not few Of them own their own
homes, for during the show season
they receive their food and board free
and often let their entire salary re-
main intact until the end of the sea-
son. 1t is curious, but the toughest
character, when he joins the circus,
quiets down; if he doesn't there's no
argument-he is merely requested to
settle up and walk off the lot"
The performers are, as a rule, hard
working people, whose people were in
