Pageants and ballet spectacles have been seen before under circus canvas. This is | the first time, however, that the scenic appointments of a theater have been used | to tell a story. acters, choristers, 200 dancing girls, 2000 costumes, special scenery, electrical and calcium effects and original music sign the importance of this fe: e. This novelty will take up about thirty | minutes of time and precedes the circus | programme proper. There are more than 300 acts in the arenic bill and the performers are gath- ered from the four corners of the earth. Among the far-famed in their different | way are the Dollard troupe, the Nelson | family, the Fortune brothers, the Rios, |the St. Leon family, the Tybell sisters, | the Leon sisters, the flying Fishers, the | Potter family and the Alvo trio. Among | the accomplished horsemen and horse- | women are John Rooney, Mike Rooney, | Rhoda Royal, Reno McCree, Albert Cran- dall, the Hobsons, Dolly Julian, May Davenport, Ida Miaco, Daisy Leon and too many more to mention here.

LOUR Ton Weight Is Officially Credited to One Cheese. "Oranges Are Pledged by Car Load to Advertise | the State. e California commissioners to the St. Louts Exposition held an important meet- ing In this city yesterday. They declded | definitely that the California building at St Louis must be completed and the keys in the possession of the commissioners by January 1 next. After some delay the specifications have been sent on for final | approval of the exposition authorities. An answer by wire as to whether they are entirely satisfactory had been re- quested. The outlook s good that the contract for bids for construction of the bullding will be advertised within the next fortnight. The time that it will take to build is estimated at about thirty days by Commissioners Filcher and Wiggins. Announcements were made at yesterday's | nieeting of great Interest to the State. | One was that the forestry, agricuiture | and horticulture exhibits of the State at St. Louls will surpass any ever made at | any world's fair. This has been deter-| mined to be the fact by the returns al- ready made and by comparison with what has been donme at other times. It was also announced that the biggest collection of Pacific Coast fish up to date has been secured. A great show at St. Louis in behalf of California is assured in the lies of education and arts. Southern California comes to the front with a huge walnut elephant to illustrate the walnut growing industry of the State. This elephant will be thirteen feet high and will weigh about two tons. When Commissioner Filcher heard of this he re- ported a gigantic cheese that will be pro- vided to indicate the dairy industry of | the northern part of the State. This enor- | mous cheese would cut up into enough cheese sandwiches to furnish the entire | attendance for a day at St. Louis. Fil- | cher confessed with evident pride that | the cheese will weigh one ton. Wiggins told then of the offer of the, Southern California Citrus Fruft Agency to provide a sufficient quantity of citrus fruits by the carload to keep up the rep- | utation of California in great shape, and { Commissioner Filcher said that the north- ern co would also provide | frults in great quantities. citrus | A display of Califernia apples will be made at St. Louis that will rival those of even Illinols, Ohio and all other apple | producing States that have made reputa- | tions in that line. This will undoubted- | use of surprise to the country Californ show will include | ally everything that is raised In | any part of the world having a temper- | ate climate and will also exhibit an ag- | gregation o pecialties in sofl products that cannot elsewhere be duplicated. In the apple display southern and northern counties will a be represented largely The California Redwood Lumber Asso- | ciation has informed the commissioners | to St. Louis that all the companles repre- | sented in the redwood prac lumber combine | will co-operate to make up a great show- ing of redwood. Among the big things | reported at yesterday’s meeting of the St. Louls commissioners was a sea bass | weighing 450 pounds that was caught off | the coast of Southern California. | SERRLERD S IR A Unique Advertising Campaign. } A very Interesting and Instructive advertis- | ing campaign will shortly be placed before the people of San Francisco.
