HIGH GRADE SHOW.

Away from the old time methods of
presenting tented amusement enter
prises, is Jones Bros and Wilson's
Trained Wild Animal Circus. AS its
title denotes, wild animal features
predominant, but do not by any means
form all of the program; high class
European circus novelties, and high
class horse, pony, dog and monkey
acts are interviewer into the program
with such varied effects, that the on
locker is taken from one enterprise to
another with such wonderful rapidity
that he hardly knows what to expect
next, and it is in the arranging of the
program so as to take advantage Of
these surprises wherein lies the charm
of Jones Bros and Wilson's perform
ances.
A noticeable feature OF tie show is
it's absolute freedom from anything
suggestive that mars so many per-
formances; it's clean wholesome fun,
the real comedy clowns, in burlesqu-
ing important topics of the day, and
grotesque impersonations of people
prominent in the limelignt, is real
humor and greatly appreciated.
The high standard of excellence
maintained throughout vne entire pro-
gram, stamps it as an attraction in a
class by itself. Unrivallec by any
other amusement enterprise ever
seen in this section of the country.

GREEKS L0ATHE THE TURKS.
An Incident That Shows How Deep

An Incident That Shows How Deep
Seated 10 the Hatred.
The extent to which the Greeks
hatred Of the Turks goes is illustrated
In "A Child of the Orient" by Demetra
vaka. The authors Aunt Kalliroe was
an old Greek woman, whose feelings
were the most anti-Turk. She had
bought a large Greek homestead. for
which she had no use and which she
could not at all afford, solely to keep it
from falling into the possession OF
Turk. The author writes:
1.-The next time we visited Aunt Kali
liroe she was installed in the Spathary
homestead. Just within the front door
stood a small table. covered with q
white linen tablecloth. such as an
orthodox Greek woman spun herself
for the purpose of putting on the table
where the ikons were laid-a table
cloth always washed by the mistress
herself in basin kept apart from the
other dishes. On the table lay Greek
ikon. brass candlestick holding three
candles. all burning. and q brass In
cense burner. from which a column OF
blue smoke was rising. filling the house
with the odor Of incense.

aunt?
They have been burning since
moved into this house. and they shall
burn for thrice forty days. to cleanse it
from Turkish pollution
".But since Baky Pasha never
bought 1t and never lived In it,
"'No. but q Turk coveted 1t. and that
is enough to pollute a Christian
home.'"

GLENWOOD.
From the Herald.

The people of our city were shocked
Monday afternoon when the news of
the death of H. A. Myron was spread
around town. While it was known
that Mr.. Myron's health had not been
of the best for some time, no one
suspected that he was in a serious
condition. Last week Mr.. Myron was
in the store attending to business as
usual. The latter part of the week
he admitted that he was not feeling
well. Sunday a doctor was sum-
moned. Monday forenoon he was in
the store part of the time. After din
ner he was obliged to lie down. Doc
tors were again summoned, but they
were unable to do anything for him.
He died shortly after three o'clock.
Death was due to heart leakage to-
gether with a complication of other
diseases.
Mrs. Myron, who was visiting with
her mother at Northrorx, was mott
fed of his condition and arrived home
short time before his death.
Funeral services were conducted
yesterday afternoon by Rev. G. T. Lee
at the home at 1880 o'clock and at the
Lutheran church at two o'clock. The
church was appropriately decorated
for the occasion. Floral offerings were
many and beautiful and the large at
tendance attested to Sae respect in
which the deceased was held in the
community. AS further token Of re-
