REAL CIRCUS DAY
Bingling Brothers at Y. M. C. A.
Was a Big Hit.
Crowds Saw Parade and Show
-125 i'm the Acts.

1t isn't necessary to go out of To-
peka for real circus material! The
Bingling Brothers put on real circus
parade to the tune of the fife and
drum on Kansas avenue, and there
were plenty of clowns and freaks and
other characteristics that go to make
up an up-to-date parade
Several thousand persons lined Kan
sas avenue at seven o'clock Friday
night and the small boys shouted their
approval of the effort to stage a gen.
uine circus procession without going
to the ends of the earth for the talent
Of course the advance man" adver-
tised that a collection of freaks had
been gathered from all parts of the
earth, but it was taken for granted
that this was purely bunk.
But at any rate the crowd was there.
Hundreds of persons flocked to the
Central Y. NJ. c. A to see the circus
The side shows were the attraction
between 1880 and SIS O'Clock when
the main performance started in the
big top (gymnasium).
In Gemmell hall were gathered the
freaks. The bearded lady, the tat
tooed man, the fat lady, the dwarf.
the giant, the snake charmer, the wild
man were all there. And then there
was a new specimen. suffragette.
The wild man gave a dance character
istic of those seen in the 1ungles of
fact he had actually been there. An
excellent water exhibition was given at
the same time in the swimming pool
The show in the gym" gave the
physical director of the association,
Joseph z. Reisner, the opportunity to
give the public an idea of the nature
of the class work done in the gym
Nearly 125 persons participated, and
the manner in which the drills and
stunts were carried out showed care
full training There was plenty of
comedy, too. The clowns were quite
up to snuff" and furnished enter
tainment that the members of the
younger generation present particu-
lariy enjoyed. Harry c. (COrk) Sny-
der as ringmaster directed the opera
lions. He was a star in his top hat
and special toys.
The drill work under the direction
of Roland Seibert, assistant physical
director and acting boys secretary,
was particularly good. In fact all the
stunts were well put on, and it is not
necessary to mention them individ-
ually.
These were the features:
Grand parade, all performers; base
ball stunt; parallel bars, advance
gym" class; duck hunting stunt; OK
dance. older juniors; ring stunt
strong man. A; Priebe; umbrella
class; jitney stunt; fancy marching,
younger juniors; trained elephant
stunt: elephant drill, older juniors;
Chicago fire stunt: dancing Dixie
Rubes, senior class; see through stunt;
Indian club swinging, Joe Whitmere;
spot sparring stunt; horizontal bar,
advance gym class; skyrocket stunt,
clowns; tumbling and ladder pyra-
n1ids. tUmbling team; shave" and
you are next" stunt; final chariot
race.
The parade and show will be re-
peated tonight-parade at o'clock.

lIaMP SO YEARS OLD.
Age Hasn't Improved 1t and 1t Is
the Kind to Discard.

One of the members of the Edi-
son Company's force of illumina-
ton engineers found an old style
incandescent doing duty at the Ii
brary that was SO years old, doubt
less one of the first manufactured
1t had but a single string of wire,
doubled, like a swing This lamp
probably sold, when purchased, for
rs cents, although it has but ID
candle power. Now one can buy a
modern Mazda lamp for IS cents
which will burn only half as much
current and give three times as
much light as the old incandescent-
A good many of these old incan-
descents are in use They should
be abandoned and modern lights
substituted. They burn twice as
much current and give only half
the amount of service as the mod
ern Mazda lamps
Contrary to some opinions, the
Edison Company doesn't desire or
make an effort to keep these old
incandescents IN use, but very
much .ef.YS that every consumer
use only modern Mazda lamps
They save the consumer money,
give more light, keep him satisfied.
and really increase business. The
theory being. that a satisfied Gus
toner is more valuable than a dis
satisfied one.
