BARNES SHOW IS
LARGER THAN EVER

Ferocious animals and charming
bits of femininity are curiously in
termingled in the performance of the
AL G. Barnes four-ring wild animal
circus, which exhibits in Winnemucca
on April 20, and which no doubt will
be jolly holiday. From the opening
pageant to the closing feature, SEN
sational thrillers pass in review; lions
ride wild bronchos like regular cow
boys; tigers dance the fox-trot; thirty
tons of elephants perform in one act |;
men and women trainers tempt fate
with reckless abandon; huge Siberian
tigers rage and roar, and finally do
as they are hidden by one demure lit
tie damsel.
There are acting cameTs, racing os-
triches. ridden by wild Arabs. musi-
cal elephants, boxing contest be-
tween a polar bear and grizzly bear.
Captain Ricardo tackling the winner,
also there are forty chorus girls on
horseback, who sing while the horses
dance; there is a whole flock of
clowns. and a shimmying hippopota-
mus and enough ginger and pep to
last until the Barnes show comes
again.

STRIKE ENDS AFTER
VOTE OF MINERS
TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY EIGHT
MEN VOTED YES WHILE FIFTY
SEVEN OF THE RADICAL FORCES
REFUSED TO RETURN TO WORK

Telephone advices received by the
Reno Journal last night from Tono-
pah stated that the Tonopah miners
on strike had decided, by vote of
268 to fifty-seven, to return to work
this morning. The meeting was called
at ) o'clock last evening and a vote
was taken shortly afterward. The
radicals were said to have cast the
only dissenting votes. .
No disorders or arrests were re-
ported in the Tonopah district yes
terday, but some trouble may follow
the return of the union miners this
morning. The district attorney, in
a notice given out Thursday, when the
strike was first limited, announced
that men desiring to work would be
fully protected by the law and that
picketing, intimidation and duress
would not be tolerated and that vio-
lators would be punished.
All mines were reported to be work
ing in the Divide district yesterday
but the Tonopah mines remained
much in the same condition as that of
Thursday, when sixty per cent of the
miners failed to report for work and
the mines were forced to operate on
a very limited scale.
