MULTITUDES Of PEOPLE fROM EAR AND HEAR 11 IA dm FOR A MM The great Adm Forepaugh and Sells Brothers Unite 1 shows arrived in La Grande ths morn'ng from Baker City, and within an hour the lots cn the hi I were transformed into a tented citv. Th stupendous circus came to L Grandj after triumphs in many Utah. Idaho and Washington ckies. It also has been seen by many of our citizens, and Ue show does not advertise anything on its bills but wnat is enacted in detail within its mass ive tents. Su:h a recommendation is taken with a grar. ;f salt until the circus is seen. Al La Grande had a chance to judge the masive shows. The verdict was unani- m 3 jsly favorable to the great travel) ig city. Forepaugh and Sells Brothers carrv the largest and most diversified menagerie on wheels. It has the largest ticer in car- tivity, Maharojah by name a title which in India means "Monarch." With the giant cat is a den of lions, all beautiful specimens of the jungle kines: three oreat .' erds of elephants, three great herds of camels, a giraffe, standing fourteen feet high; and bears and deer galore. Tho vast menagerie itself is worth the price the great show charges to pass within its doors. The circus performance is a marvel The new features added to the great sho w since last it was in tie west practically works the monstrous performance into a new show. The fire scene is something grand. A hotel erected in the big pe r formance tent catches fire. The quick work of the firemen in rescui ig many people is so realistic that the observer believes for the instant that he is witness ing a conflagration. Whe.'i the firemen give up the show tent three herds of monster elephants perform tricks miraculous. The intelligence of these animals is second only to the beau tiful control which their trainers have over them. From the time the elephants cccupy the ring until the National Anthem tells the crowd the great show is over, the air is full of graceful flying performers. The trapeze performers.and acrobats -hich in the air, are applauded to the echo by ad miring thousands. Forepaugh-Sells show has a richt to call itself great, because there has never been anything in Oregon to compare with it. The show carries five million feet of canvass, eight hundred people and one hundred cars. More than a mile of wair- ons took part in the gorgeous parade. The parade feature of the circus was by no means a small one. Many of the eques-tria-s rode in it. and the comical clown hand furnished fun for the youngsters. Oh. The Circus-Day parade! Hew the brgles r'ayed and played! And how the glossy horses tossed their flossy manes, and neghed. As the rattle and the rhyme of the tenor-drummers' time Filled all the hungry hearts of us with melody sutlime!
