No one but a cross-eyed man could see it all and he would have to move his optics to ragtime music to | take it in. There were three rings and two stages. While one was watching the seals juggle firebrands he missed i the white horse that did a cake walk. ‘While he gave all hjs attention to the pink silk tights whirling in midair he missed the trained elephant with the gold fillings in his tusks, who turned sommersaults. g In nattiness and neatness the Ring- | ling Brothers’ show is almost too much | up to the times. The circuses of the ! days *“when you and I were young” are doomed. One can see it in the Floradora costumes of these modern “queens of the ring,” in the new stunts of the clowns and in the vau- deville aspect of the bill. | The old circus was as stereotyped as | the minstrel show. Now come female ringmasters in ballroom cloaks, tricks that never were heard of in the old ! days when one ring, some lemonade and a bag of peanuts with “La Clar- ise” breaking hoops in the one rins.i made a circus. . 1 The old timer was there. He didn't | bring Willie for an excuse either. He | was honest and simply satd he wanted ! to smell the saw dust and be young ! | again. | | “I remember ‘when I wanted to run | | away and follow a circus. It wasn't | i much of a circus, but it was more than | i#he ‘Arabian Nights' to me. I miss | something here.” - i The old fellow looked wistfully but | i sadly at the girls in Floradora picture | | hats, the girls in knee breeches and | 1girls in every sort of modern stage | | dress. Suddenly there burst into one ! of the rings a white horse, bearing a | &irl in the ballet costume of other days. ! It was a pink gauzy thing, that stood | | out stifly away from the damsel's 1 knees. On her forehead was a glitter- | | ing star of up-to-date diamond. The circus fan of days gone by chuckled and gaped like a, visitor from the egg raising distriot. “That's her. That’s the real circus lady. Without her it’s no circus. I saw her when I was a kid and had to split wood to get to the show. By Jove, maybe that's the same one!” 8o, even the old timer | was happy. | In the morning Ringling’s Theater i paraded in full force’ The animals | went two by two, just as they walked out of the ark up on Mount Ararat. ;rhere were nearly as many of them, 00. | Most side shows have been what the wise youth would call “de bunk,” but the giant and the Singhalese pigmy, and all the impossibilities promised by Ringling’s spielers are there. — e fPUBLICITY COMMITTEE i ANNOUNCES ITS PURPOSES | ! SRS S Bulletin Is Tssued by Organization | Relating to Means to Advertise | California’s Many Resources. | The State Publicity Committee, | | which was formed as the result of a conference at Sacramento of execu- | tive officers of development associa- tions of California, has issued its | first bulletin, in which the history of | the formation of the committee is re- viewed. The purpose of the commit- ! tee is declared to be to centralize pub- | licity work for the entire State and to | unify that work and effectively ad- | vertise California; also to bring to va- rious sections the manufactories and | industries that they need. A part of the bulletin referring to the plan ot work is as follows: The object of the State Publicity Committes {1s to conduct an active campaign looking to the advertising of California’s products and the bringing of desirable settiers and needed industries and manufactories to the State, Offices Wil be established by the State Pub- licity Committee in Chicago and New York, | where literature on all sections of California | will be distributed. This means that all or-| | ganizations of the State wiil have an efficient | | medium for the distribution of literature. Thess | offices will be in charge of competent persons | | who will, in addition to the distribution of | | literature on all parts of California, make, an especial endeavor to exploit California products | and broaden the market for same, and to en- courage dosirable manufactures upon the Pa- | cific Coast. | “"An impertant teature of the State Publicity | committee’'s work will be its advertising in | Bastern publications. This advertising will be s0 directed as to get the names of thousands of those who are interested in California ‘and | Who wish more information. California will | advertissd in every prominent publication, so | | that every reader in the United States and { | many parts of the world cannot fail to know | ! that he can get rellable information on Cali- | fornia by writing for jt. The inquiries from people Interested in California that are de- rived from such advertising will be far greater than the aggregate of inquiries that are now derived from advertising all _sections indi- vidually. Every vart of the State will not only rocelve more settlers, manufactories and 3 greater demand for their goods, but will bs benefited by the increase of population and the promotion of industries in the State. In | short, the object of the State Publiclty Com- | mittee ‘s to carry out a plan of comprehensive | ovértising fo make the development work more effective. Sues to Dissolve Corporation. An action was filed yesterday by the State, upon the relation of U. S. ‘Webb, Attorney General, to dissolve | the Decimal Mutual Life Insurance | Company, formerly the Los Angeles ! Mutual Life and Accident Insurance | Company. It is alleged upon infor- mation furnished by Insurance Com- | missioner E. Myron Wolf that the cor- | peration is not doing business in ac- cordance with the insurance statute | approved March 19, 1891, and also that the corporation is not carrying out'the terms of its contracts. —————— Victim of Rio de Janeiro. A petition for letters of guardian- ship over the persons and estates of Hallie and Henry Barwick was flled yesterday by their mother, Clara Bar- wick, widow of Edward Barwick, who was drowned in the sinking of the steamer Rio de Janeiro. Mrs. Bar- wick the letters of guardianship that rosecute a suit for may D! damages on behalf of the children against the steamship company, through the carelessness of which she alleges her husband lost his life. | Let what you learn in the house of a friend ' Yet it were no betrayal of hospi- S ey et O S T % A 2 B Wichman, Lutgen & Co. - s i in ‘the precinct in 10 a. m. istration places. 9DTISECCRCI000ISL 000 6000000006 60E30006060060600 You can register for the coming election which you reside: Wednesday, September 14, And Thursday, Seplember 15, From to 9 p. m DO NOT FAIL TO REGISTER.
