DEAN OF CLOWNS
 WITH D|G CIRCUS
Mammoth Circus Will Show Here Wednesday of
 This Week

Throughout the realm of spangles there is none who can tell as wonderful stories as Al Miaco, dean of all the clowns in circusdom.
 During the more than SO years that he has devoted to making youngsters and grown-ups happy with his art as' pantomimist he has had many ad. ventures. Often of an afternoon, when he and other performers are waiting to go into the mammoth main-tent of Ringing Brothers and Barnum & Bai- ley combined shows, someone will ask him to tell of the days gone by.
 Miaco likes best of all to tell his stories to the younger performers Re- citing adventures experienced with the old Dan Rice show when that historic institution was famous up and down the Mississippi river a half century ago.
 Miaco is now 7S years old. Yet he is as agile as any of the army of clowns that make merry on the hippodrome track of the great super circus that is coming here next Wednesday. He can turn a "flip-flap' with the youngest of them. Bright of eye, erect of car riage, and quick of wit and gesture, he is indeed the daddy of them all"
 Supreme in the art of pantomine he this season plays an important part in the great new pageant. He heads the long list of artists who have been en- gagged to portray the principal charac- ters in the fairyland and nursery-tale groupings that are distributed at in- tervals in the processional
 The big pantomimic panorama is the opening feature of the main-tent pro- gramme. It is followed by almost three hours of arenic novelties and sensa- tions. Many displays of animal actors including a Quarter of million pound' elephant act and scores of su- perb horses supplement the men and women stars The gigantic programme is the result of merging the finest fea- lures of Americas two most famous circusces and adding many acts en- tirely new to this country.
