Robinson Circus Coming.

The circus that has been entertain
ing the American public for the last
eighty-nine consecutive years-the
John Robinson Ten Big Shows, is
coming here on Tuesday, July 4.
The advance ws-pilot-the press
agent, has been here, and so has a
brigade of more than a score of bill
posters, bannermen and program dis
tributors, and that spells publicity
the one very important element in the
van of any itinerant amusement or
ganization.
With all their multitudinous arenic,
menagerie and side-show features and
novelties, the John Robinson shows
are said to be a bewildering triumph
of under-canvas entertainment This
of course, does not include the mons
ter free street parade, with its long
procession of carved and gilded wag-
ons, gaily caparisoned horses and
ponies, the glittering spangled riders,
uniformed bands of crashing music
and the shrieking steam calliope, all
of which collectively should be a
substantial alibi for any hookey-play-
ing boy or girl in Twin Falls and its
environs. Don't blame the Riddles if
the little chores are neglected on cir
Gus day. Just lay the blame to the
innoculation of the circus germ and
remember that all you grown ups
were boys and girls yourselves once
upon a time. And for that matter, the
same little bug may get hold on you,
too, before the paraders return to the
circus lot. Just you wait until you
get a peep at that pink lemonade,
hear the familiar shouts of the side
show BARKER" and get Whit of the
palatable roasted circus peanut. If
they don't take you back once more to
the kid days, then it must be that you
are a confirmed crouch or else it is
time to call in the family doctor.-Adv.

conex Islands Start.

Coney Islands Start.
 The first man to realize the great possibilities vf Coney Island as sum- mer resort was Austin Corbin. a bank CT and railway official. From the be- gining of the last century the beach at Coney Island was frequented by many New Workers. but it remained for Corbin to initiate the movement which has made "COney" d synonym for a certain kind of amusement. Cor bin started his financial career at Dav- enport. la, but in 1865 he opened banking house In New York, and In 1873 he purchased the eastern part or Coney Island. There he c"eated the great resort known as Manhattan Beach. He also became president or the Long Island railroad and played big part in the development of all the summer resorts on Long Island. In the last forty years Coney Island has be,.ome the greatest popular summer resort in the world. and in addition to . the millions of transient visitors from the city who go there for the day many thousands are regular summer residents of the hotels and cottages which line its shores. = New York World
