H g
Ringing Brothers Circus and newly
added 100000 spectacle OF Joan OF
Arc" will exhibit in clarksburg Fri.
day, April 18th. The spectacle in it
self is an attraction that should bring
thousands OF visitors from the sur.
rounding country. 1t IS beyond dnes.
lion the greatest production OF Its
kind even seen in America.
The worlds most skillful scenic ar.
lists, costhmers, property.makers, cho.
rus directors and stage managers we're
engaged to mount the production. A
stage bigger than a hundred ordinary
theatets was built and made portable
sc that It can be conveyed from town
to town and erected each morning In
the main tent. Thus the circus pro
prletors have made It possible for
those who live in contributory towns
as well as in the large cities to see
this magnificent wordless play with
its cast of 1900 characters, a ballet OF
300 dalcing girls. a grand opera cho'
rus Of 400 voices. 600 horses and a
train load of special scenery, costumes,
properties and mechanical devices for
producing such stage effects as thun'
der. lightning. storms. fires, and the
sound Of battle.
In the old market place Of ROuen
France there now stands a monument
by which the French Of today have
sought to redeem their part in the eX'
ccutlon OF Joan of Are, who on May 30,
1881, was burned 10 death on the false
charge Of heresy after having deliver
ed her country from the English and
having restored the crown 10 Charles

France victorious throug Il English lii,

the indolent monarch whom she pre-
served, died by the cruelest torture
known with the name of the master
Upon her lips. Unsung in poetry, the
name Of this simple peasant girl has
come down through the ages to be re-
vered as that of a saint, and whose
wonderful powers and whose bravery

divine Inspiration.
On the triumphant incidents, thG
victorious engagements, the final de
feat Of the English armies, and the cor
onation of Charles VII, all achieved
by the frail Maid OF Orleans, has been
founded the inspiring spectacle which
gives Ringling Brothers CIRQUE a new
significance and makes an attraction
such as the world in searching for
amusement has never before found
The regular circus programme is
more than ever attractive. Its Cun..
pany of S75 foreign artists. its double
menagetie and its ne" street parade
will prove great surprise to those
who attend from this city. The even.
is one that should not be missed.

DESPITE THREATENING SKIES THIS MORNING LARGE NUM-

Despite the threatening weather this morning, the crowd at the fair grounds this afternoon is immense, being only slightly smaller than that of yesterday, which was record breaker.
 Today is 'Old Confederates" day, and no less than 150 of the men who fought for the Lost Cause are in attendance An address of welcome was delivered by former Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Samuel Frauenthal of Little Rock, to which Col. c. w. Bruce responded. Ad- dresses were also made by former Attorney General Geo. w. Murphy and Secretary of State Earl w. Hodges of Little Rock. The speakers were introduced by Prof. Charles J. Greene of Hendrix College.
 At noon today, dinner, in picnic style, was served to the old soldiers and their wives, and widows of ex- Confederates, by the Conway camp of United Sons of the Confederacy. fThe old soldiers greatly enjoyed the entertainment, as we'll as the relation of "reminiscences of the war days by various veterans.

At The Theatres
THE GRAND.


 Loves Quarantine" is the title of a screamingly funny Vitagraph com edy that will be presented tonight st the Grand. In order to gain access to the girl he adores, her lover makes up as a doctor and, calling to see the cook, who pretends to be sick, an- nounces that she has smallpox and that all in the house must be quaran- tined. No one but the doctor will be allowed to visit or leave the house. The indiscreet talk of two of his friends, who make up as policemen and pretend to guard the house, re, suits in the discovery of his trick and the angry papa makes short work of the bunch of them. 1t is an inde- scribably funny story and is sure to make a great hit with the patrons of this ever popular theater.
 Other pictures to be seen at the Grand tonight are "The Dream Fairy" an Edison drama, and Easy Money" Pathe comedy.

BUFFET SUPPER A PLEASURE
Takes Work From Hostess. and Guests
Are Pleased With the Novelty
of the Thing.

The buffet supper is coming more
and more into vogue, especially for
the informal Sunday evening sort of
entertainment. This has come about
partly because of the unwillingness
OF the average maid to give up her
regular Sunday afternoon and eve
ming holiday. She can not be depend
ed on to serve even the simplest kind
of supper on Sunday, and so her mis-
tress must plan to do things the cas-.
lest way possible.
1t is good idea to have the sup
per prepared earlier in the day and
to have only those dishes that will
not be any the less palatable for q
few hours standing. Sandwiches, cold
meat or chicken, salad. tarts and small
cakes can be prepared and placed on
the dining table at the proper time.
Coffee or tea can be made at the last
minute and served from a small serv.
ing table. The silver and napkins
should be placed on the buffet or side.
board, and with everything 80 con.
veniently arranged each guest may
serve himself to whatever pleases his
fancy.
Quite number OF people may be
entertained in this way without the
AID OF q servant. The very informal.
ity OF this form Of hospitality appeals
to most people, and 1t solves a prob.
lem for the hostess who finds that she
