which will exhibit in Oregon City Sat
urday afternoon and night May 9th,
were brought to this country direct
from their triumphal engagement at
the Hippodrome, London, England.
These performers are American by
birth, but have spent most of their
time in the capitals of Europe, where
their sucess has been tremendous.
They are undoubtedly the highest
salaried performers in their line in
the world. During the run if the big
circus In SanFrancisco this Spring
279,873 persons paid admission during
the run of sixty consecutive perfor
mances, and the Peerless Potters had
he place of honor on the long program
that consisted of sensational features.
The press of the city were unanimous
in acording the Peeless Potters to be
the world's greatest artists. Their
flights through space are thrilling in
extreme. They turn full double twists
and tripple somersaults sixty feet in
the air and catch by their hands and
feet as graceful as butterflies. There
are seven performers in the troupe.
