¥ * RINGLING SEOWS REPEAT SUGCESS Big Circus Strikes Popular Note Just as it Has in Years of the Past. SPEOTACLE 1S A WINNER. “Marvelous in magnitude, match- less in merit, majestic in magnifi- cence,” just about expresses one's “feelings after attending the Ringling Brothers' circus. The big tent would not hold all who wished to gain ad~ mittance yesterday afternoon and eve- ning, but the management adhered to their rule, to not admit more than the seats’ will accommodate. The pec- formance in every respect was a strik- ing illustration of advancement in cir- cus entertainment. The effect of an efficient organization was evident in every department, “Cinderella,” a fairyland spectacle, was the opening feature of the pro- m This cnmncinf pantomine the attention of old and young. It was the most pretentious circus spectacle ever seen Eere, and the mar- vel was how such an elaborate pro- duction could be staged within the limitations of a circus. In this spec- tacle were shown the regal pomp of : monies, brilliant settings, and a iryland atmosphere which carried e spectator back to his storybook . days, The guad procession of the : pru and his fnmoul entourage 5 md the full length of the. outer ring challenged the admiration everybody.

Plattsmouth Will Welcome Former Tads with Music The former barefoot boys of Platts- mouth, now talking law over the bar in Omaha, managing railroad lines, superintending manufacturing plants and directing the operations of de- artment stores, are training hard to eat Nebraska City's record for a home-coming day. 2 Plattsmouth is to have its home- coming week in the early part of Sep- tember, and the Omaha crowd of for- { mer Plattsmouth boys have already arranged for a Burlington special to take them out at 9:15 on the morning of September 1. That will be Fri- |day and Omaha day at the Platts- mouth home-coming. A committee, of which Henry Ger- ing is chairman, has been appointed to hustle up the crowd, and already the committee has a written list of 150 men who expect to make the trip, G. ‘W. Holdrege of the Burlington used to roll up his trousers and wade in the mud puddles after a rain at Plattsmouth, and he is anxious to let that cool mud ooze up between his toes just once more. C. Ramsey and Henry Gering nursed their first legal ambitions in that town, and a flock.-of barnyard chickens they put to flight with the thunder of their Phillipic oratory. So the memories are dear as they are dear to Gerald M. Drew, Calvin H. Taylor, Dr. W. R. Elster, F. E. White, Byron Clark, Jesse Root and a hundred others who are planning to make the trip.

Will Search Home 0f Morrison for Golden Hoard Chicago, Ill, Aug. 28.—Seeking a hidden hoard of gold, appraisers will. search the premises of Edward W. Morrison, the eccentric millionaire, whose wasted fortune is the subject of investigation by the federal court. Attorneys for the receivers will ask for a formal court crder tomorrow, directing a search for the missing gold, The garden of the old man’s home will be spaded by the seekers after buried treasure and the walls of the ramshackle home will be probed. That vast sums of money have passed into Morrison’s hands in recent years is asserted by attorneys. It is also claimed that while the aged million- aire spent and gave away his money with a reckless hand, he had a passion for hoarding gold coins and would never part with one. As there is no trace of any large sums of gold being banked it is believed probable that a secret hiding place may be located at Morrison's home. Tomorrow Attorney J. R. Ward, who holds deeds to $2,000,000 worth of Morrison’s property, will be asked to produce his books and records in the federal court.
