ROBI'.jtTS, Receiver. d4-ll-5-16 Ice cream in any quantity at Blue Mountain Creamery Co. See our announcement Norrla & Howe's Circus. , To parade or not to parade was a question that the big circus magnates pondered over with much deliberation during the meeting of the advisory ar.i uskuiva committees of the big amusement combine. For the past three years the Barnum A Bailey cir cus has not given a parade, but as that show has become a possession of the Rlngllng Bros., the question of change of policy was brought up. For a time it looked as though the circus parade would be a thing of the past, but Nor rla and Rows held out tenaciously for the street pageant, and won out In both committees, and as a result all of the three big circuses will ocntlnue the parades, but will put them on a much more elaborate scale than here tofore. .-.'.-.' By arrangement of territory the Barnum A Bailey circus will be seen in the New England states; the Rlng llng Bros, in the middle west and southern states, and the Greater Nor ris A Rowe circus, museum, menag erie, hippodrome and congress of na tions will be seen in all the cities west of the Rockies. B ythls arrangement the territory will be equally divided among the big shows. The Barnum Sc Bailey circus opened their season In New York; the Rlngllng Bros. In Chi cago, and the Norrls A Rowe circus In Ban Francisco, where It exhibited for 30 days to 279,873 paid admissions. which is more people than ever wit nessed a circus In that period in the history of the west. 1 They will exhibit here Friday, May 15. 9K' We Want Your Wants f Our Want Ad Column ' Your want is placed before a thousand or more want-teektr T X . every day Can you afford to spend one cent per word of your .
