CENSORED NEWS OF THE WAR.

FTHE news from the seat of is censored that is
difficult to get thorough understanding of the sit
Il uation. Places where fighting is going on are in
many not mentioned and even when they are
the stories nearly all censored by side the
other that the real event is couded Each side that
the sent out is not unfavorabe to it, and most of
the from the French Belgian side it is only
fair to make allowances for prejudice and discount
to extent the reports of victories The first story
direct from Berlin reached the world yesterday through
Karl Won Wiegand the United Press correspondent who
unable to get out of Berlin went over into Holland
and from there sent detailed statement of the situation
in Germany
The coseness of the censorship and the utter isolation
of Germany from the worlds shown in the fact
that up to Thursday the of the death of President
Wilson's wife had not been heard in Berlin almost week
after it happened and Wiegands story held up and
censored in London This story refuted all those from
other telling of the execution of 100 socialists and
Others and also contradiced other tales of similar import
From this it will be that Dame Rumor spread her
stories promscuousy in Europe this side of the

MARVELLOUS ACTS TO

son had a wonderful engagement in
Madison Square Garden in March, at
tracting thousands of visitors to New
York, where the "Greatest Show on
Earth" was pronounced by press and
public as "the last word to be written
in circuses. " Barnum & Bailey will
exhibit here Thursday, August 81.
Everything is new but the name.
America S youth demands with each re-
curing spring and summer the circus
visitation and it demands that it be
none other than Barnum & Bailey's.
The youth of this country Is not to
be denied and when the circus reaches
his native heath he never lets up until
his parents have pledged their word
that he can go to the circus. Then
his cup of happiness is complete.
The name Barnum & Bailey is a
household phrase and the flashing of
those names on the billbOards and in
the newspaper means to the community
more than mere words can explain to
countless numbers. This season the
Greatest Show on Earth" presents as
its opening feature the mammoth Orien.
tai spectacle "The Wizard Prince of
Arabia" which has proved revelation
of pageantry and ballet interspersed
by 2l5O persons, including 300 dancing
and singing girls in dazzling and mag.
nificent costumes.
While the Barnum & Bailey manage.
ment has not overlooked a single detail
this year, particular attention has been
given to the arenic features and some
marvellous acts have been imported
from Europe for the circus showing
only. This alone has cost the circus n
pretty penny, but the great demand for
something new each year has resulted
IN the circus going across the seas to
get it. ~
New York voted the Barnum & Bailey
circus the biggest and best in recent
years, and this stamp of approval only
strengthens the general belief that in
the circus realm there is only one great
circus, and that is the Barnum & Bailey
organization.
