One of the big events in the
Sun Brothers performances this
season, is the Superbly Trained
Animal Ensemble. 1t is claimed
for this section, Of the show, to
be the surprise and wonder of all
beholders, Here will be found
horsesi that are clowns, acrobats,
musicians and dancers; Ele-
plants, with the wits of human
beings and with a sense OF hu-
NOR, these pachpderms are the
sensation of every city and town
visited, in fact they have appear
ed in all parts of Europe and the
big cities of the United States,
and forms in all, the most pic
turesque, laughable, comical, as
founding display of elephant
sagacity ever conceived. There
is also bunch of wonderfully
trained bears, babboons, mules,
lions, camels and zebus, in fact
more trained animals than ever
before seen with one single show.
The Sun Brothers shows, for
this season also present many
distinct European "thrillers" and
novelties, including feats and
features absolutely new to the
American public and vastly sup
erior to those of past seasons.
The wild beast and animal dis
play is, a big affair and serves to
exhibit a superb collection of the
finest specimens from all parts of
the jungles Of Africa, India and
Asia.
AS usual and in vogue for near
ly a quarter of a century with
this show, the management is
following it's famous policy of
allowing no gamblers, ticket
scalpers, camp followers or i'm
moral issues with the show at
any time or place. Two complete
performances will be given at
Belington, w. Va, on May 81,
1913.

A FAEIRLESS SHOW.

The Sun Brothers, Worlds
Progressive Shows, that are
heavily billed to exhibit at Being
ton for two performances, is one
Of the legitimate outdoor amuse-
ment institutions Of this country.
1t has record Of twenty two
years of continuous service be-
fore the people Of this country
and further has the distinction Of
being the very cleanest tented
exhibition that ever traversed
the good old United States: 1t.
has never allowed any Gamblers,
Fakirs, Fortune Sellers, Oriental
dancing girl concerns, no catch
penny devices, no ticket scalpers,
no short change artists, no people
to follow it from town to town
with questionable prize schemes,
no street corner ropers-in and in
fact nothing that can in any way
reflect on a first class, well con-
Quoted, educational, attractive
and real entertainment enter
prise. The policy of the manage
ment is to be entertainers of the
public and not part and parcel of
a bunch Of grafters.
The show this season is the
finest and best ever devised by
well known and liberal firm Of
managers. Many new wild beast
subjects; Ell new big top artists;
new band and orchestra; new
tents and in fact a brand new
splinter show all around, and
with no increase in the prices of
admission.

that, therefore, he should be SAVED
from TEMPTATION, MUZZLED like

TEMPERANCE RALLY AT SPARR
yOuI .,
GRANT COWAN.

Special Cor Ocala Banner:
The temperance rally and picnic
at Spar on Friday, the 9Th inst, was
a success indeed. Quite a large and
enthusiastic crowd gathered, and
promptly at II o'clock they were call
ed to the Baptist church by D. l..
Grantham, master of ceremonies, and
who is also clerk of the church, and
who, after a few we'll chosen words
of welcome introduced as the first
speaker Mr.. w. T. Gary. Mr. Gary's
speech was to the point and was real
ly the champion speech of the day.
Mr. Gary was followed by Hon. w. D.
earn, who also made some very
strong points.
At this hour-one o'clock-the mas
ter of ceremonies announced dinner,
and a bountiful spread was partaken
of and greatly enjoyed.
At two o'clock the crowd went
again to the church, and Mr. Neil Fer
guson was introduced, and after his
we'll composed speech came the Hon.
L. S. Ligth, who never fails TO have
figures and statistics that cannot be
denied, and he knows how to present
them. Following Mr. Light came Hon.
w. J. Crosby, who in a few we'll chos-
en- words gave his reasons for being
a dry man.
Tehn came one of Sparr's products,
Mr.. Frank Huffman, who made his
first public speech, and we must say
he deserves many compliments on his
maiden effort.
Then came Hon E. L. Carney, who
in his usual pleasant, congenial man
ner brought out some very strong
points in favor of the temperance
cause. Mr. Carney has many friends
in this section who are always glad
to see and hear him.
Quite a number were present from
Ocala, Redick, Lowell, Anthony, Fort
Mccoy, Citra and other places.
At intervals during the speaking
hours the choir rendered several
beautiful selections. Those compos-
ing the choir were Miss May Gran
tham. organist; Miss Miriam Ste
phens, Miss Isabel Burton, Ray Luff-
man, Terry Young and Grover Gran
than.
