Gollmar Brothers’ Circus Different From Other Shows.

There are many ways in. which the Gollmar Brothers’ shows differ from other circuses and a visit to this monster tented enterprise when it comes to Rensselaer, Saturday, May 13, will cause people who have been complaining that all shows were alike as to quality, to deny this statement, by adding "excepting the Gollmar Brothers’ circus.” Gollmar Brothers’ shows resemble other tented enterprises inasmuch as the performance is given under a tent. When it comes to the circus acts themselves It differs widely from other institutions which are heralded as “great” shows. A grand street parade is given in every city visited. And the turnout Is the biggest free feature offered with MW circus of the present day. The menagerie la more than twice as large as that carried by other circuses. The biggest “hipp” In captivity Is in this department. The only hybrid lion-tiger, with the tiger’s stripes on the lion’s skin, is another rare feature.
