 Amusements For All.
 Besides the midway the fancy of the every day crowd will be pleased by numerous vaudeville stunts in front of the grand stand. "Cats', the daring aeronart, will make a balloon ascension daily at 2 o'clock in the He does single, double and triple drops from parachuts. Then there is Oliver, the high diver, who throws himself off a platform from an elevation of 100 feet and dips into a shallow tank at the bottom of the cen- | tury, just a mild form of exhiliration. l The Montrose troup of acrobats amuse l the crowd between races and the Saw l ages, fancy hands with the rifle and | revolver, furnish an interlude. Ma dame Va1lecita with her half dozen | performing leOpards comes in for a share of applause. Miss Vallecita, by 1 the way, has shown her trained ami | malls in every zone and cline under l the sun with the exception of China | and Siberia. She was exhibiting in | London when the Zeps raided the l world famous city and had 8 lively ex- perience lodging explosives and in fammatory shells. She was booked for the Arabic on her last fatal pas sage and only cancelled the voyage when one of the leopards was taken sick The Arabic, as will be recalled, was .torpedoed by a German subma- rine.
