he had an alteration with another

A GREAT SPECTACLE
Joan of Arc" a Feature of
Ringing Bros Circus.

Joan of Arc" spectacle costing
100000 to devise and produce, if Of
fered this year by Ringing Brothers,
appearing here, May Z, as an introduce
tory to their regular circus program.
1t is presented on stage bigger than
100 ordinary theaters and with a cast
of 1900 characters A trainload of spe-
cial scenery, costumes, and stage pro-
perties are requested.
The story of Joan of Arc" simple
peasant girl who became the deliverer
of France, and at last, betrayed by all
was burned on the public square on
the false charge of heresy and witch
| by Ringing Brothers in a masterful
way, retaining to the end it's pathos,
/ it's sentiment and it's thrilling dramatic
interest
| The play begins when Joan, just six
teen years old, comes from her father
pasture at Dormemy at the command
of the Archangel St. Michael to the
court of Charles VII at Chinon. In the
/ light of thousand torches she is
brought into the presence of the king
lin the great palace which throngs
with the mobiles of France. The recep-
ltion which the king gives to the peas
liant girl is filed with impressiveness
md suspense. The second climax of
. the great spectacle is reached when
: J0an, dressed in armory, crosses the
: ritter, at Orleans, and rides at the head
Of the French army into the gates of
the beleaguered city. One of her her.
aids presents himself at the English
camp. Respect to the messenger of a
reputed sorceress is denied and the
. herald is threatened with death An
, other messenger Is sent to defy Talbot,
and to declare from the girl that If any
harm is done hi NIT shall be retaliated
on the English prisoners.

depart. This they refuse to do. At the

his songs on the big paper pad in
