- Ths society circus came to --an end
with a great flourish last night and
marked one of ths most signally suc
cessful benefit perform an oee over given
In Portland. The attendance Increased
with every performance, . aa ths fame
of tha undertaking spread snd ths de
mand for tickets last night was larger
than ever. (.'..'
- One radical way in which tha society
circus differed from P. V. Barnum'S or
Rlngler Brothers' attractions wss that
tha last night was as ' good or better
than the first performance. There was
no confusion of tearing up to leave
town as hurriedly aa poaalble for Cue

night had ths soma advantage and saw
the same things ss ths first-nighters.
- Ths matinee yesterday afternoon was
an . Inspiring sight Tiers and tiers of
school children bobbed up and down in
delighted expectation, and - laughed
shrilly at tho antics of the downs. In
many cases ths old excuse of "taking
tho children to see ths circus" was- re
sorted to and tho older people undls
gulsedly. enjoyed the proceedings.
Perhaps the equestrienne teats of tha
Portland Riding academy people gained
ths most spplauss at all the perform
ances. -The riders had their horses so
well In hand snd tho oqulnes were so
evidently on their best behavior for the
three days that It was hard to believe
none of them nad seen the circua ting

Another feature that never failed to
call out unstinted spplauss snd enthu
siasm was the drills. As one girl re
marked, "The horse drills are wonder
ful but the human drilla el way e keep
time to tho muelo snd so that doesn't
worry-me." The Multnomah youngsters
were perfectly, drilled. The Junior
Multnomah boys made pretty figures In
rapid succession and perfect time; com
bined with the Junior girls in an Indian
club drill the effect was certainly
pleasing. The grand seenlo production,
"Tho Queen of the . ' Circus." rivaled
Ringllng's "Holy City" and "Jerusalem"
spectscles, and the aylphlne lines of
the burly- 100-pound queen In a fetching

I YOU CAN TELL A
. BV THE
You Can Tell a Detlar Patron by the Smile on
... His Face So You Can Tell a Merchant by
the Confidence piat the Public Has In Hl
Store and Standing Among the People.
, Probably the most striking display of "public approval ever ac-.
.corded a merchant or store on the entire Pacific Coast ia tha patron
age bestowvd npon John Dellar, the clothier, at comer First and
Yamhill streets. Mr. Dellar announced some few days ago that he
had secured a term lease on his present store, also 6,000 feet addi
tional spaa:, and that the entire building would be overhauled' and
refitted at an expense well toward $25,000. . Before workmen can
be allowed possession of the building it is necessary that the entire '
stock now on hand and arriving almost daily be aoldV In order to
avoid the dangers of dust and dirt damage, as well ai being conv ''
. pelled to surrender over one half f the present store, Mr.' Dellar
' went at price-cutting with a grim determination to sell the goods
and not let prices stand in the way, The result is that never in
this new century has there been such a terrible and merciless slaugh
ter of High-Grade Men's and Boya Clothing, Hats, Shoes, Furnish-,
ings and Ladies and Misses' Shoes. Mr. Dellar said just the day
before the sale opened; "In these days of so 'much questionable
sale advertising I expect it will take a -week or two before the peo
ple really appreciate that all stores are not run on the skim-milk
basis. For 15 years this store has naver broken a promise it. made,
and. I, know oui customers and people that , have traded here will
come in crowds. But the rapid growth of our city has added thou-.
'sands of newcomers. , Can we get these people to understand; that
this is a store that does exactly what it promises?" ' Mr. Dellar waa
skeptical, but the sale opened, on time, and the old customers came
in crowds and brought their neighbors, and the newcomers to Port
land came by the hundreds and brought their uncles, and their
cousins and their aunt. They came the first day, and have been
coming, and the very walls seem to shower new facet daily at the
big Rebuilding Sale. There will not be any let-up. The, enthusiasm
grows with each package gr bundle that leaves the store during the
great $75,000 sale of this stock. Rebuilding is a circumstance that
demands positive and decided action. There will be a bargain car
nival every day until the, situation is mastered. - Prices must do the
work. Dellar qualities and styfcs need no flowery saying; seeing
the goods insures the approval of every man, woman and child.
That great factor, satisfaction, goes with every sale. The variety
in every department is so extensive that there ia hardly a fad, fash
ion or idea but can be satisfied. . And when you do find what you
desired, the actual saving will be from 20 to 50 of regular selling
prices. The original or regular prices are left on all articles, be it
a suit, pants, hat, shoes, shirt or collar-button. The reduced price
is also there, marked in plain figures. There is no juggling of fig
ures. The truth is good and strong enough for John Dellar, for
the truth is often stranger than fiction, and ten timet aa powerful. ,
This week will be a specially powerful bargain opportunity week.
Several thousands of dollars' worth of reserve stock will be thrown
on sale at the aame .terrific sacrifice that hat and will character
ize this rebuilding to. the last minute. With every purchase made
goes that gold-bond guarantee of Dellar 'a. It must be just as ex
pected, and satisfactory in every way, shape and manner, or bring it
back and exchange it, or get your money back if you so desire. No
frills or subterfuges at this store.: We want to tee you in the crowd -this
week. Let ut show you what real bargaina are. .
