HAGENBECK-WALLACE
WILL PARADE AT II
SATURDAY MORNING
Only One of Big Crcuses
to Maintain Free
Street Parade.

The Hagenbeck-Wall Circus, the
aristocrat of the circus world, which
still retains the parade feature of cir
Gus day, which will be here Saturday
for two performances. has already two
score of men arranging the various de-
tails, getting the 10, in proper shape,
buying feed for the carnivori and stock,
and meat, milk and groceries for the
employees.
/. When the Hagenbeck- Wallace viii
lage is established and the seventeen
canopied white tops are erected. seven
acres OF ground are covered and almost
every trade and profession is r.pre-
sented. There are BARRIERS. resta.ran-
tours, lawyers, doctors, blacksmiths.
wagon makers. detectives, bakers and
so on down the line of village life,
and there is everything that goes with
well regulated village except a char
ter.
Nearly every language is spoken in
this strange colony OF 7GO men, women
and children, and all religions are rep
resented. Most circus performers have
strong religious leanings and rarely
Sunday goes by that the majority of
them may not be found in the church
of their choice.
For a long while this winter it
looked as if the parade feature of
circus day would be relegated to the
things that were. as the free part of
the Hagenbeck- Wallace circus takes up

Splendid Session by -
Clubs Music Section

e The Music Section of the Wom-

t'husiastic and well attended meet
ing yesterday afternoon at the club
house. Following a brief business
session where plans were completed
for the program which the section
will present before the club next
Thursday, Mrs. s. H. Embury took
charge of the musical current
events, assisted by Mesdames w. s.
Holbrook, w. II. Lavayea, and El
mer A. Todd.
The program was then turned
over to Mrs. Mont j. Reid, who
with the assistance of several mem
bers Of the section, gave n worth
while and entertaining sketch of the
Metropolitan opera house, and fam
Gus artists who have appeared
there. First giving the history of
the erection of this great opera
house, which is the center of the
musical world in the western hemis
phere, Mrs. Reid told Of some of the
obstacles overcome before it at
tanned its present fame.
Mrs. Reid then presented Mrs.
John Rice, who told of the achieve
ments of Patti, Melba, and Calve;
Mrs. f. J. Mack of Sembrich, Nor
dica, and Eames; and Mrs. Elmer A..
Todd of Phantom, Caruso and Jean
and Edouard De ResZke.
A number of records of the most
famous songs of these artists were
then played on the phonograph the
section being indebted to the I'm
perial Valley Hardware Company
for this pleasure.
According to the new custom
which is being inaugurated by the
section this fall, no refreshments
were served. This plan seems to be
meeting with the unqualified ap-
proval of all the members.
At the next meeting of the music
section, the study of the Metropol-
itan opera house and it's artists
will be continued, still under the
capable direction of Mrs. Reid, who
with her assistants, received many
compliments on yesterdays pro-
