SAME OLD CIRCUS.
BUT AT ITS BEST
/. EVER IN NEW SUIT
H andSome Women and
Trained Animal Acts Are
Outstanding Features.
By Charles DarntOn.

Talere was a momentary hush, then,
shattertng the spaces Of Madison
Square Garden, came the mighty
voice:
'TAA-ITns AND GEN TEL MEN,
I invite your ENTIRD ATTENTION

The supreme moment had been
reached, the highest point Of Ringing
Brothers and Barnum and Baney's
Combined Shows-come one, come
all, and don't forget the sideshow!
IL was Saturday night with every
body on his toes or his heads and
the scent of sawdust in the air.
A pretty little woman-that Is, a
woman not very tall, yet-well, you
know-stood bowling in a glare OF
light that shone through her shock
Of blond hair. Throwing Off her re-
splendent cloak she looked very
charming in her new Easter tights.
The band struck up and she went
twining up a rope on which she swune
herself head over heels like a human
ptnwheel so many times that you for
got to count in your amazement at
her strength and skill and endur-
bowed her way out of the arena Her
success was echoed in a roar OF ap-
plause, through which she picked her
way daintily all smiles and grace

This years circus is distinguished
above all others for its handsome and
clever women and its trained animal
acts. These are the outstanding fea-
lures, though everything is exception
ally good. Never before has circus
exhibited such talented performers
They seem to have come from every
part Of bhe globe, and they are SC
skilled that the big show on Saturday
night moved along without a single
hitch. Oven the clowns, spread al
over the place, were more original In
their ideas and costumes than ever
before. For example, there was d
large lady who lost her protuberant
hustle from time to time, but It al
ways rejoined her In her majestic
promenade.
The other ladies wore nothing tc

deceive you, and there were enough
charmers to stock half a dozen
Broadway musical comedies. The
cowgirls, who went yip- yipping and
zip tipping around the track were
as fresh and exhilarating as a morn

any young man TO go West and settle
down in a saddle. or course, he
would have to "go some" to keep up
with them after he got there, but
what a lifel II these girls get out OF

fine Hungarian stations that are put

horses finally execute an intricate

Sixty years ago at
the end of March, 1861

Market Street In Philadelphia and
Broadway in New York were paved with
cobble stones, over which cattered the
old-fashioned two-horse omnibuses. The
horse cars were Just beginning to appear.
There were no telephones, typewriters,
electric lights, nor other inventions which
have revOlutiOnized our mode of life in the
last half century and transformed exist
ence into a thing Of light and ease.
The DGr came on Dith shot
The drum beat never stopped, day or
night, until the regiments were in COM
mission and on their way to the front.
Scores and hundreds of the big, old
firms were compelled to go into bankruptcy
or into liquidation.
There are very few names on business
signs that were there sixty years ago.
1t has been a long, hard climb, year by
year, day by day, to the heights whittier
we have come, but the high regard of the
people and their encouragement, particu-
larly in 1920, have been far beyond our
expectations, but we are well rewarded
by the confidence and support of those
who know us to be worthy and who cheer
us to make our great buildings roomier and
better and to continue to add to the ad-
vantages of those who serve with us
and to the great multitude who depend upon
us to serve them hOnorably and beneficialy.

DISARMAMENT I I
FEELERS MEET
ACCEPTANCE

Washington. June 10 Informal re-
sponscs OF a favorable character have
been received here from several OF the
governments to which the United States
recently addressed informally the sug-
geS;Ions for international negotiations
regarding disarmament.
Although nothing Of definite char
actcr has been done in the way OF actual
diplomatic discussions. the intimations
received here are understood to have en-
couraGcd the administration In Its pre-
liminary steps towards a disarmament
conference. 1t was indicated today that
considerable time might be required to
actually bring such L conference about
hut that officials thought the situation
was developing rs rapidly as could rea-
sonahly be expected.
1t was not revealed from what nations
the responses had come, nor exactly
how definite they had been. Since tho
subject was broarh"d by this govern
mcnt, however. officials have been care
ful TO describe it as wholly informal
and as intended only TO lead up to
more concrete discussion later.
