MANY GOING TO CIRCUS.
Barnum & Bailey Attracting Thousands
with Many New Novelty Features.

The Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show
on Earth is attracting unusual interest
this season with its wonderful program
of European novelties, its rebuilt par
AIDE, its complete menagerie, and its re-
Gently added 100000 wordless spec
taele Of Cleopatra, Z all Of which will
be seen in Racine on Thursday, July IL.
The parade, which takes place at 40
o clock in the morning, is three miles
in length. In the menagerie will be
found the only baby giraffe on exhibit
ZION anywhere on earth. The inaugural
spectacle of Cleopatra is produced
on the biggest stage ever devoted to an
open ali amusement. 1t is erected in
the main tent of the show. There IS a
cast of 1880 characters, a grand opera
chorus of 400 voices, an orchestra of
100 musicians, ballet of $50 dancing
girls, $50 horses, five herds of ele-
plants, caravans of camels, and an en-
tire trainload of special scenery, cos
tunes and stage effects. This is the
greatest spectacular, theatrical, and cir
Gus event in the history of amusements
in America.
Among the many European novelties
on the regular program which follows
the spectacle, are Miss Bird Millman,
the wonderful high wire artist, and
novelty feats by company of japanese
warriors and Jul jitsu experts, Win
stems riding and juggling seals, the
Herr Koenig' s troup of statue building,
dancing and jumping horses, a brass
band of stations, Berzac s mule and
monkey circus, the Siegfist-Silbon fam
lily of high air yaulters and somer-
saulters, Mae With, the greatest bare
back and somersault rider in the world !;
the Five Baltons, worlds greatest
strong men and women Vittoria and
Georgetty, strong arm dancers. Les
Jardy and Les Deko families of aero
oats, five herds of trained elephants,
and the fifty funniest clowns in the
world.
The Barnum and Bailey circus for
more than fifty years has stood at the
head of the world s amusement affairs.
This year it is more interesting than
ever before, and twice as big. 1t trav-
els on a train more than mile in
length, covers fourteen acres of ground,
and has nearly 1900 employees, 700
horses, nearly two-thirds of the ele-
plants in America, ITO cages in the
menagerie and over 1000 wagons and
other vehicles. The two performances
that will be given i'll Racine will be
exactly the same as those presented at
Madison Square Garden, New York,
where the season was opened in March.
Not one detail has been changed. The
great spectacle was said to be the most
notable dramatic event in the history
Of amusements in that city, while the
circus proper was credited with being
the best ever given there. advdW

FRANK MARTIN Would Reopen Saloon at
ST. Milwaukee Avenue This Year.
Frank J. Martin, whose application
for license at 90l Market street was
recently turned down by the common
council has filed an application with the
city clerk asking that he be granted a
license to conduct a saloon at 3l7 Mil
waukee avenue This is the location
known as the Bad House. The
building is owned by the. Brand Brew
ing Company, but it was abandoned for
saloon purposes last March when, after
the filing of complaint for the revoca-
ton of the license, the agents of the
company came before the council and
asked to be granted a suspension of the
license. 1t is probable that there will
be a strong protest on the part of sur
rounding. property owners against the
granting of license for the reopening
of the place 1t is claimed that the
building has never been successfully
used for saloon purposes.
