HAN FORD LIKE BARNUM.
Aa Big Circus Man, He Cornea Around
Once Every Year.
A candid citizen of a western state
once remarked, "My family only goes
to two shows eveiy season; one is
Barnum & Bailey's, and the other Is
Charles B. Hanford's." r rom me cir
cus to the classics, from the sawdust
arena to the forum la a far cry, yet
the compliment was a great one, and
reflected the Intellectual sincerity of
the man who uttered It. Barnum &
Bailey strove every season to surpass
all previous circus achievements, in
cluding their own, as Mr. Hanford has
done the same thing In his chosen
line of endeavor. He has sought to
bring to his performance all that
could add Interest and charm to his
Shakespearean productions. He has
searched the world of books, and sur
veyed available acting talent as dili
gently as the agents of the great mor
al tent show have explored -the jungle
In quest of strange creatures. It was
i comparison which might flatter both
parties who were made Its subject, and
Mr. Hanford's presentation this year
will be more spectacular than ever
before. A scenic revival of "Antony
and Cleopatra" has been In his mind
for a number of seasons past and lawt
year's production of "Julius Caesar"
formed a splendid preface for this
year s representation or Antony no
longer a triumphant statesman, but
the Ill-fated lover.
Monday, March 23, la Mr. Hanford's
date at the Steward opera house.
