TKULY THE GREATEST SHOW, Some of the Wonders of the Barnum & Balley Circus. The Barnum & Bailey shows have made a return in many respects this season to old fashioned circus acts, but with such ampli- fication and improvements as are needed to fit them to the use of the greatest show. on earth. Thus there Is umbling and leap- ing by a big aggregation of circus talent, and there are also talking and singing clowns, this feature being represented by “Billy’ Burke and “Pete’ Conklin, two old- favorites. Things are kept merry for the children by seventeen other pantomimic and acrobatic clowns, This scason there are also a number of sensational novelties in the show. The Ethnological congress, or Midway Plaisance, in which a greater num- ber of different races and tribes are ex- hibited than were seen in Chicago last summer, Is one of these. The animal cir- cus, in whick many diffcrent kinds of ani- mals are made to perform in a barred arena, even lions and lambs taking part to- gether, 1is another sensational feature. Chiko and Johanna, the only two giant gor- fllas ever exhibitzd ier, attract deep irterest from both the scientific and curious. The three Eugenes do one of the most dar- ing aerial acts ever scen, this being their first tour in this country and their first sea- son under a clrcus canvas. There are six- teen bareback riders, among them grace- ful, pretty and daring Rose Meers, and the great_trio, Willlam Showles,Frank Melvillo and Willlam Demott.

It was shought by some members that it was not good policy to open the sohools this week, as Monday was a_holiday and the fair would have a materigl effect on the at- tendance during the first two or three days.
