WOrtham's Great Alamo Shows.
Largest En- Tour. .


The Workman Great Alamo
Shows that opened their weeks
engagement in this city Mon
day night, is a large and most
pretentious carnival organiza-
tion; in fact, it is the largest of
it's kind en- tour.
Fifteen new and novel, as well
as pleasing and amusing, at
fractions and rides occupy a
most beautifully and well lighted
Midway, with its thousands OF
electric lights. The show carries
a very well organized concert
band under the able leadership
of one of the best known musical
directors in the outdoor show
world, Park B. Prentiss.
The main show, or the big
show as most call it, the trained
animal and hippodrome circus
royal, is certainly all that the
name implies, with its seven big
acts, including trained high
school horses, high school ponies
and riding monkeys, the Salome
dancing bear, tableau horses,
and the big sensational lion tam
ing act, with Miss Ernestine La
Rose, considered the peer OF all
animal tanners, who feeds them
raw meat from her bare hands,
making them form pyramids
Jump through hoops of fire, and
presents a most daring and
thrilling fight for life in the big
steel cage with those four man.
eating beasts. This act alone
is worth the time and money ex-
pended.
The other main attraction, the
underground Chinatown and
Barbary Coast, showing how in
real life the users of opium, the
morphine needle and the cocaine
users live their lives of shame
and degradation. The famous
dance halls of old Barbary Coast
where hundreds of girls first
meet and take the path that
leads to shame and suicide,
where the "'chunps,"' as famll-
iarly called in the underworld,
are "taken" for their hard earn
ed cash and "bank rolls also
the different gambling games In
full operation, and the Wholesale
hop and drug joints in full sway.
If you miss paying this attrac-
ton a visit while in the city you
will have missed one of the main
attractions direct from the San
Francisco and San Diego fairs,
and in fact the only and original
production en- tour.
The other attractions include
the big circus side show and
freak museum gathered from all
parts of the old and new worlds
under one canvas and for one
price Of admission; fifteen to
sixteen attractions and distinct
shows. The crazy loony Bug
house, which will be the talk
of the town for many days to
come, so be sure to drop in"

formed aquatic experts, that

they will be made.

CASES
OF RECISTRANTS
MARRIED MAY IS

The county attorneys office re-
ceived instructions from the adju-
tant general this morning to appeal
all cases of registrants under the Sc.
lective draft, who had married since
May 1S, 1917. to the district exemp-
tion board, to be heard there before
the final classification is made.
There is only one exception to the
order and that Is those who have
been married since that time and
have been placed in class one under
the QUESTIONABLE.
The theory upon which the order
Is based is that these men took de-
pendents upon them, knowing that
they were subject to the draft and
for that reason they will be taken
into the service unless it is shown
that it is for the best interest of al
concerned that they should not b.
drafted. S. c. Durbin, secretary o
the local board, stated this morning
that the only cases that would be ap
pealed by the government would b.
the ones in which the board ha'
granted exemptions. In other case
where the registrant had not bee
exempted, even though he was NAL
ried within the time mentioned, hi
case would not be appealed on tn
part of the government. So ia
there are about twelve cases this
win be appealed by the goyernmea

thereby hangs the tale of the 27 to
26 score.
At the same time, no credit must
be detracted from Ell Reno. They
played with a dash and confidence
that made 1t extremely difficult for
the Chickasha clan to gain and hold
the offensive. Weaver, at center, is
a mountain. This applies to height
as well as girth. He is nearly as tall
as Phillips and is constructed ON de-
cidedly more generous proportions,
as to girth, outweighing the local
center some half hundred pounds
or so. Incidentally he was the prin-
cipal marksman for the invaders and
to him goes the credit for the great
est number of baskets. Hill for
Chickasha outshot his opponent on
free throws ringing UP four out of
seven trials.
The girls game did not materialize
for the reason that Amber failed to
show up. Likewise, the Junior high
Bradley game, scheduled for Bradley
last night, was not played. The
Chlckasha team started to make the
trip in cars, but became stuck in the
mud and were forced to return to
ChicBasba. The game was cancelled
this morning.
Lineup of the game:
Chiekasha-Hi and P. Riddle, for
wards; Phillips, center; B. Driskell
