Fine Horse Acts In Robbins Circus

Every circus that comes to Elkton has
horse acts. 1t would not be circus If
it did not, but none of them have such
performing horses as the wonderful
troupe of imported German stations,
brought to this country for the Frank A.
Robbins All-Feature Circue, which APP
pears here twice on Friday, October 3D..
At an expense of 500, eco these eight coal

King of Horse Trainers, and without a
peer in the show business today, the

evolutions in the ring, the whole act

group, walks out of the ring on his rear
legs, to the plaudits of all who witness
the remarkable act.

EXPLAIN THIS

IF a man is an unfit" candidate be-
fore primary, how does he become
fit" candidate after it? If he is unfit
on Monday, how comes it that on fles-
day he is all right and proper Here is
where the so-called party spirit becomes
the very curse of good citizenship. We
recognize, of course, that men may enter
primaries on opposite sides without the
question of fitness or unfitnesS beng
raised; in which event it becomes quite
in order to support the nominee. But If
you refuse your support in the primary
to a candidate because you regard him
as unworthy himself or untrustworthy
in his alliances, how does he become
any more worthy of your support sim
ply because he secured a party nominal
ton? Does the counting of a primary
vote in his favor baptize him with clean
water and bring him forth a new man?
We do not ask that sort of question
OF everybody. But we do ask it of the
men who claim to be good citizens.
We can never hope for any improve
ment in public service; we can never
expect cleaner and better politics, until
men of thought and conscience refuse to
be whipped into line by the old party
cry, which is the sheet anchor of the
fellows who make business of politics,
but which is the ruination of all hopes
for better things in our public affairs
Don't you understand my dear friend,
that in this and every other community,
there are political runners who look on
the whole thing as a game" by which
they can be personally profted? They
care nothing about public interests and
public questions. They only care TO win
for their own personal ends; and they
expect to line you up for themselves by
the cry OF vote the ticket And whe-
Their they succeed in lining you up or
not depends on how much of sucker"
you are

Among the most destructive inhab itants of the ocean is the sea wolf-a kind of dolphin, which attains when full grown length of fourteen feet. When a mother walrus sees q sea wolf she endeayors to throw her cub on an iceberg, if one is near. Failing this, with it above water. But often this does not save it. Diving far below, the fish of prey comes up with tre- mendous force, striking the mother and jolting the cub off her head into the water.
