Madame Celeste Proud of Peanut-Eating Leopard

- —— ■ —..... —..—. '

Her is Olga Celesta and.Bamara, one of the big spotted leopards with Ring Hug Brothers and Barnum & Bailey clicus.

“Festively the only peanut-eating leopard In captivity.” That is what Madame Celeste claims for Samara who p'ays the Ingenue pRTts with the troupe of spotted beauties that is daily exhibited with the Itlngling Brothers and Barnum .V Bailey Circus. According to Samara s mlatress. the animal acquired ber taste for goobers, wh ’e traveling with a small circus ID Holland last year. When not performing, Ramara and her companion actors were kept In a den which atood near “elephant row." Vow and thpn a peanut that was meant so. an elephant tumbled inside Samara's rags. From the very first she devoured them with as mum relish as she would a bit of raw meat. Unlike the elephants, the leopard doe* not care for the sheila. She holds the tid-bit between her paws, cracks the nut

with her teeth and then eats the kernel. When it Is considered that Madame Celeste's leopards have been trained to do everything from riding horses to jumping through hoops of fire. Samara s peanut eating attainments seem but a trifle. Still she is best known to the circus folks because of this unique taste and so gets as much attention as any one of the forty elephants. Jungle animals—such as leopards, tigers, lions and Jaguars—are being presented In great number lu steel arenas with the KingUng Brothers aud Baraura & Bailey Oreng this season. A big | troupe of trained polar bears and fifty acting Barbary stallions, desert camp's aud ponies sre among others that supplement the human side of the vast double show All will be seen when exhibitions are given here next Friday, July 22n(1.

Mr Bingham invited Shank to renew his membership a short time after the primary this year.

The directors are Mr. Bingham, president; Frederick E. Schortemeler, first vice president; Walter Bond, second vice president; Henry Abrams, third vice

Not as long as we can stretch our dwindling RESERVE to meet your needs! This reserve, which v/e built up months ago, is now standing between you and serious famine!

In the longest continuous hot spell in FIFTY YEARS, Indianapolis has so far had PLENTY OF ICE—--because THIS COMPANY had the foresight and the COURAGE to build up a great ice reserve MONTHS AGO for just such an emergency as this——because we increased our manufacturing facilities and built new storage houses.(and built them in a desperate race against time), and worked our plants to capacity DAY AND NIGHT and stored away TONS AND TONS of ice long before hot weather set in —and thus created a large ice reserve in Indianapolis! By this action Indianapolis, unlike other cities, has been protected against an ice famine—up to the present. OTHER CITIES, in the throes of serious ice shortage, have tried to buy from our reserve at any price. Every day brings calls from them, but we have not shipped a POUND OF ICE out of Indianapolis. Our first duty is to our own people. The natural ice crop last winter was almost a TOTAL FAILURE. When, early in March, it became certain there would be no natural ice, we started at once to build new storage houses and to run our plants DAY AND NIGHT to fill them. From that time on until current demands prevented, we were manufacturing ice at our fullest capacity and storing it for your possible needs. And NOW—when the hottest summer in

years has created the PRESENT EMERGENCY—we were READY FOR IT! So far there has been plenty of ice in Indianapolis. If this had been a normal season we would have lost a lot of money, because onr daily production is ample for EVERY NORMAL DEMAND, and onr great reserve stocks would have wasted away. But it is OUR JOB to supply ice to the people of Indianapolis—and we had to run that risk in order to DO THE JOB RIGHT. We have kept onr customers supplied with ice in the face of the LARGEST DEMAND IN 32 YEARS. Twice before during this long period of service, emergencies like the present have arisen—- . and then, as now, this company has been ready and prepared to meet the need. All of this tryingsnmmer we have continued to sell onr ice in Indianapolis at the prices established last spring—when we might have sold it in OTHER cities at a much higher price. And we will continue to sell it here—and at the same price, notwithstanding its scarcity. We can continue to keep our customers supplied with ice if our RESERVE holds out. But we must warn you that ice is very SCARCE, and is getting SCARCER. USE only the ice that you actually NEED. Conserve your supply and help us conserve ours. FAMINE is the unpleasant alternative.
