The clouds hung low over the city Sunday morning but when the first section of the three big circus trains arrived the sun broke forth in all tts glory and turned Sunday into a sightseeing day for thou: sands of grown-ups as well as kid dies. Of course, the circus press agent ordered the sun to come out again, | today and he so told the world, just as circus press agents always do. that the sun would shine, and they are never known to fib, so every one is looking for the sun.

But one feature that should not be overlooked is a trip to the stable tents, where the big, gray Percheron baggage horwes are stalled.
