terday from Dickinson, where he went
to see the shows, and was very much
pleased with them. The shows will
the city for the remainder Of the
week. Mr.. Hofer will extend an in
titation to the members Of the city
commission and local press represent
atives to have dinner with the lions
Friday night. From advance infor-
nation, Mr.. Hofer's little dinner par
ty is apt to be a rank "tizzlc," as few,
if any, of the guests are very keen
on playing the Daniel part.
When the governor of a state rec
ommends a carnival it goes without
saying that the said carnival must
have some highly pleasing qualities.
The Workman Shows are recommend
red by the governor Of the state of
Texas as the cleanest and best that
he has ever seen.
In the point OF cleanliness, Mr..
Wortham is emphatic and it is his
boast that no Objectionable features
can be found on his midway. Own
ing, as he does, all the equipment, he
is not relying upon outside showmen
for any Of his attractions and is in
a position to dictate the policy Of his
entertainments and does it rigidly
when the qQuestion of decency comes
in, -@. 2..'- =
The o~ld-fashioned, girl show is on
spicuous by its absence; the show
with so-called Oriental dances is also
tabooed. In their place will be found
attractions such as The Miracle Girl,
presided over by Miss Eta Louise
Blake, one of Americas host promi-
nent producers, who gives an up.to-
date entertainment, replete with o
city in the way of clever illusions,
mirthful music and poses Of the most
artistic nature, representing the we'll
known works of such painters as
Landseer, Turner and Millais, and
"Zetta" and her Tango Queens, who
produce musical comedy of the most
approved description, giving ta5loids
Of the latest metropolitan successes
and introducing the latest dances and
songs.
Neptunee's Daughter is a water
show Of the more up to date stand,
ard, in which Miss Lillian Cooley, the
di ing Venus, will be seen to great
advantage. The young lady is said
to rival the famous Annette Keller
mar in her graceful diving and the
rest Of her performers are all we'll
known water artists.
The Trip to Mars will be found to
be a novel device, which is built for
fun-making purposes only. The Crys-I
tai Tangle will serve the same pur-
pose and the two are among the most
novel of all carnival attractions.
For the benefit Of the children there
are a number of riding devices, which
include a SO, 900 merry-go.round and
a gigantic Ferris wheel. The Worth
am Shows, being constructed espec-
tally with a view to give pleasure of
the little ones, there will be a big
street parade Monday evening.
