Fifty merry mummers will add
hilarity to the ring performance of
the Ringing Brothers and Barnum

hibits in Washington.
The clown is a multiplied fea-

sawdust jester has been crowded
out of the arena. Years ago it was
between the rests of the bareback
riders that he cut up didoes with
the ring master and got a sharp
crack of the whip for his good
natured foolery. In the Ringing
Brothers and Barnum & Bailey
circus there are fifty of these droll
fellows. nor are all of them of the
traditional white face. streaked in
red and black and loosely dressed
in the costume of dotted white

some are policemen, some are over.
