The other sketch "Keeping an Appointment" is also ably presented and is apparently enjoyed by tbe audiences which are delighted with the entire bill this week. DeVare t and Zemater, the horizontal bar comiqueu, produce the laugh while putting on some sensatiqnal acrobatic stunts.

John Robinson Shows. The' modern circus Is the lineal descendant of the ancient Olympic games of Greece. The Romans adopted this form of popular amusement from the Greeks. The name "circus" is Latin, meaning a circle; and it was used to Indicate the place in each city where chariot races, athletic contests, etc., were held The circus flourished in Rome 2,500 years ago, and for ten centuries later. With tthe decadence of the mistress of the world came a decline of the circus in character, and it was frequently debased by revolting spectacles, such as the throwing of those obnoxious to the government,' including Christians to wild beasts. Doubtless . it was this that gave the church a prejudice against the circus, which is today still held by

some extremely conservative church people. The modern' circus has about it nothing debasing. Mankind has always . held physical achievement , in high esteem; its heroes are those who have done something notable. Especially in courage, and the display of leadership on tbe battlefield held in the highest esteem. The military hero stands highest In the popular roll of fame. Physical prowess delights the average man; and in the athletic exhibitions of the circus, the racing, the display of consummate horsemanship and so on, which are the leading features of a circus exhibition, nearly everyone, young and old, takes pleasure and a pleasure that is most certainly innocent. , Within the last half century or so, the circus in America has moved to a much higher plane than it ever before occupied.. The exhibitions are unobjectionable on the score of mortality; the comfort 'and convenience of spectators are carefully conserved; there is up more fear of meeting insult or disagreeable incidents than there Is in attending a lecture or a theatrical performance. 'As a result the old-time

prejudice against the circus as a proper amusement for all classes, ages and

sexes is rapidly disappearing. The love of diversion and harmless amuse

ment for all classes, ages and sexes Is Inborn in man. To forbid them is to

turn counter t9 human nature. The Creator would not have implanted this desire for amusement in mankind were it detrimental. - The great John - Robinson Shows, the model of this tented style of entertainment come here Thursday, May 12.
