A Imlj Wonderful Sight.
"Columbus, and the Discovery of America Is bewildering and astounding In its dssding splendor, the circus is fascinating In Its varied entertainment, the double menageries an education in natural history, the whole show Is sa eagle's flight above all others." That is what a prominent paper has said of the immense exhibition Barnum and Bailey will bring here on the Fourth of July, and which Is, In fact, nothing less than "The Greatest Show on Earth." Nothing that can be written would convey an Idea of lis great magnitude and extent. To say that 1,300 persona are on Its pay rolls, and that those 1*200 persons are all the finest circus, hippodrome, aerial and
other wonderful pe/formers, conveys but a faint idea, for among them are operatic, dramatic, tragic, pantomime, scenic, classic, terpsichorean and other accomplished artists, actors, dancers and experts. The spectacle of Columbus alone embracing nearly every phase of histrionic art from comedy to tragedy, and with the most magnificent ballet ever devised, requiring 300 dancing girls. Then there are menageries of trained and wild beasts, three circus rings, elevated stages, racing track, one monster stage, 450 feet long, enormous tents, at least two acres of elegant scenery, and— well, it must be seen, it cannot be described. It will be here on the Fourth of July with a marvelous new, historical, free street parade at 9 o'clock in the morning of the show's arrival.
