ELEPHANTS WORKED
Overtime THURSDAY

Considerable difficulty was expert
enced by the Carl Hagenbeck-Walla
shows in getting out of Richmond
Thursday night as result OF the
continued rain. The ground, after the
departure. of the big crowd attending
the circus in the afternoon, was liter
ally a sea Of mud. It was with the
greatest difficulty that some of the
heavily loaded wagons were drawn to
the train. In one instance, twenty
horses were hitched to a wagon, and
it was necessary to call upon two
elephants to put their heads to the
rear of the wagons and "boost". In
this manner the wagons were gotten
underway and the trip to the railway
begun. The big animals were used
more than usual while in the city last
night in getting the show QUITO the
railway yards. One of the circus men
stated that there might be some in
Richmond who were disappointe d at
the circus not staying for a night
show but added that if they had to
walk through the mire to get into and
out of the tents they would appreciate
the early departure of the circus.

years, sustained the injuries as a
result of the fastening of the rope

surgeon with the circus was call
ed and the injured performer was
taken to the hospital compart-
ment in the circus train. Miss

How Diphtheria is Contracted


One often hears the expression, "My
child caught severe cold which deve-
loped in to diphtheria" when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly sus-
ceptihle to the wandering diphtheria
germ. If your child has a cold when
diphtheria is prevalent you should
take him out of school and keep him
off the street until fully recovered, as
there is hundred times more danger
of his taking diphtheria when he has
a cold. When Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is given it quickly curses the
cold and lessons the danger of diph
liberia or any other germ disease be
ing contracted. Apri
