sells-FIoto-Berni Giant serenadum

Even if you do not care to visit
the performance of the Sells-Floto
circus when it comes here on Tues
day, May 9th, it is suggested by
the management that you go down
to the circus lot and listen to Ber-
mis- Giant Serenadum, which will
give continuous concerts during the
afternoon and evening.
This is the largest musical instru-
ment that was ever made portable
so that it could be carried on wheels.
1t was built at a cost of $20,0Oo,
and rivals in excellence the great
organs of Salt Lake or st. Peters.
Its repertoire includes all the popu-
lar selections, operate gems and
lassi ccrenditions. You will find it
near the main entrance of the Big
Tent. The concert is free to all
those who care to enjoy it
Added to this, you might spend a
profitable hour examining the mech
anism of the huge wagon which con-
vey the circus paraphernalia from
town to town. Ask some of the
attendants to show you Curtis Fool
proof Wagon-it will demonstrate to
you how modern ingenuity protects
the laboring man against his own
carelessness. After that, you might
take look at the Sells Floto hors-
es. They are considered the best OF
their kind.
The price of admission this year
is still 25 cents. The seating capac-
ity of the circus has been increased
until there are now seats for ten
thousand people and there are three
rings instead Of two as formerly.
