BISMARCK MIDWAY » WELL PATRONIZED Dozen Riding Devices and Score \ of Shows Amuse Visitors to Goodman Shows The Goodman Wonder Show, which opened an engagement of one week here Mondey night, hit Bismarck like the storm of Sunday night hit the show while en route here. It was a deluge of patronage and favorable comment, In the early evening the Fraternal Order of Eagles’ band turn- ed out to lead an oddity parade stag- ed by the show. In the line up were fat girls, pretty girls.in profusion, midgets in half dozens, the wild man, and the color- ed band from the-Dixie minstrel show, all of which whetted the amusement palate of the community. This was appeased by @ visit to the grounds at Twentieth street and Broadway. There in a blaze of glory was the most brilliantly lighted midway in the country facing the 10 big shows, In the center were the dozen riding de- vices. The whole made up a fine pic- ture of a traveling Coney Island. Vis- itors first were amazed by the mag- nitude of the show, and then by its quality. Every offering received its quota of patronage, and the show folk were happy. The show is under the auspices of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Its members were much. in evidence on the grounds. Saturday the show will stage a children’s matinee when there will be no gate charge and each show apd cach ride will be 5 cents for each cl le There are more than 90,000 mem- Bers. of the American Medical asso- ciation.

Russell Reid, superintendent of the state historical society, said plats of the de Mores cattle ranch shows an irrigation project just below the blufé on which is located the rambling cha- teau which the Marquis built 54 years ago.
