street, have lighted Moose Way"
with vari-colored electric lights and
erected an arch near the entrance to
it's "lot." Including the numerous
kewpie stands, knife racks and div

exposition probably has more con-
cessions than any show ever visiting
this city.
Aside from the rides. which are
always popular, the attractions hav-
ing the biggest business Monday
night were the wild west show with
its outlaw horses, rope spinners and
crack shots; the society. circus, an
exhibition Of equine and canine in
| telligence, and the diving circus.
| Other attractions include over the
| Waves" and Barrel of Fun" two
crazy, house devices; LAKELAND min

Coast, a museum depicting life in
San F'ranciscos old untamed district;
Coney Island side show and the Big

Girl With 1000 Eyes" the latter a
mystic offering.
Because of its late arrival the
Frisco show was not entirely ready
for opening Monday night. A few Of
the shows were not opened and the
motordrome was not completely set.
The lighting was not Of the best
Monday night but, the management
had q promise Of better service for
this evening.
Brundaue Shows.
| With the concessions and shows
laid out in circle, conferred by a
Ferris wheel, merry go-round. whip
and earoplane swing, the Brundage
Shows, have a neat layout that is
pleasing to the eye. All the shows
did a good business the opening
night, those drawing the big crowds
were Mack Sennett's Bathing Beau
ties, a clean exhibition OF fancy and
high diving, and the athletic show.
Others are the motordrome, two
crazy houses, dip he-loop. fat lady,
mystery exhibition and an education

There were the usual number of
baby racks, and kewpie doll games,
all of which were we'll patronized.
