Animal Circus which is to appear

About the best circus that has
amused Gardner patrons in years, La
.Tena's Wild Animal Circus played to
a well filed tent on the Conant street
grounds yesterday afternoon and eve
ming and the big crowds were thor
oughly satisfied that they had got
ten their moneys worth.
There were "a big acts, all of
which found favor. There were pony
drills, performing lions, trained seals,
elephants, acrobats,. performing
bears, bareback riders and wire
walkers, and they all deserved the
applause that was accorded them.
The elephants, as is usually the
case, were objects of interest and the
tricks that they performed with Wal
ter Allen and two assistants showed
remarkable intelligence. Capt. Yves
ley's seals were a novelty.
Another act which furnished
thrills was by Capt. Hagen, who put
five lions through numerous stunts
not without danger. One of the
beasts had a spring that carried him
to the top of the cage.

say they are short on foreigners.
because he cannot fill his job if
they can fill it with one of them.
This is why | say this must become
a hard country to live in.
The milk industry did look very
promising but the business is on
the decline and going fast. It's
tact thai a dairy COW that once
sold for $3.50, now brings only SIS:
the steer that sold for II cts Der
ID. is now 7 cts per pound; and the
same is true-in proportion of pigs
and sheep. So you can see at once
how it has gone. But if you want
to buy beef steak it costs from
Is to rs cents per pound.
That goes to prove that a class
is fast getting hold that will make
this-the northwest-the hardest
place in the United States to live
in.
So tell all our boys who are
thinking of coming to this country
to just keep their money and buy
some young live stock, for they
have not even a gamblers chance
in this country.
The timber in the northwest is
all we ever could boast of yery
much and forest fires are burning
it now, as I write this letter by the
millions of feet and the vast wealth
of our country going up in smoke.
Many of our people would DENY
this, but if you doubt it, come and
take look at our hills after a fire.

after the timber is gone 3-4 of the

AS | see it the South is the one
country that must come to the
front, It grows the things that all
the world must have. cotton. grain,
live stock and many other things
could mention.
If l was young man looking for
a home, I would settle in the South
and especially western North Caro-
lima, from what I have seen.

ton before Judge Ferguson W no is
trial Judge at Robbinsville court to
have the case against Hardy Wig
gins and Merritt Miller for the mur-
der of R. L. Phillips of Tulula NOV
ed from Graham County to Chero-
kee.
The trial of these two defendants
will draw great crowd to Robbins
vile, if the motion made before
Judge FuTgeson is overuled. The
murder of Mrs. Nancy Phillips. her
daughter Mary Runyan and son
Charlie on May 1st and the am
bush of the husband and father R.

ed more excitement than anything
that has occurred in that county
for many years.
CORNER friends and relatives of
the defendants have taken little i'll
terest in establishing the innosence
of the men, because all reports of
the evidence is of such a strange
strong and convincing character as
to discourage and repel them.
