Supt. Barclay, ot the railway mail ser
vice spent yesterday in The Dalles, re
turning from a trip to Prineville, Moro

prised if The Dalles . would hear some
thing interesting regarding his visit ere
long.
Is your father at home?" asked a

Spokane is to have a law against
throwing scrap paper on the sidewalks,
which is a good one, the mayor claiming
that recently several bad runaways have
been caused by this habit. Then, too,
they give the streets Buch an untidy ap
pearance. The Dalles would do well to
look into he matter, as that is the
cause of much of the annoyance of keep
lng'our city looking any ways decent.
Among the many visitors who came in
to the city today were two who did not
come to attend the circus, but to be life
long members of the family of Rev. D.
V. Poling. ,Tbey were twin girls, and
arrived this morning. While The Dalles
really needed young men more than
young ladies, we congratulate Rey. a .d
Mrs. Poling that they were so fortunate
as to have two of the fairer sex as
visitors. :
' The Indiana appreciate circas day
seemingly more than anyone, and the
town is well supplied with Red Men to
day. One of them, however, decided to
have a little circuB of bis own by
swallowing all tire fire water he could
get a hold of. The marshal found it
necessary to hand-cuff him before he
could be quieted down and landed in
the "ekookum bouse."
An amueing thing today has been to
watch the balloon venders and the tac
tics they use in selling their wares.
Walking np to a baby carriage or a band
of small children, they will hand each
child a balloon. Of course when the
mother attempts to take it away to band
back to its owner, the babies set up a
howl, and to prevent, a ecene she is com
pelled to buy the pretty plaything.
There's more ways than one of selling
a balloon.
Bert Bagley, of Pease & Mays' store,
is carrying his arm in a sling, the regu't
of a slight accident a short time since.
Working about the store, Bert ran a
small sliver in his right hand which he
extracted. A short time after he struck
the hand on the corner of a counter and
since that time it has been swelling and
very painful. It is now thought it is
poisoned slightly, and Bert feels some"
what anxious concerning it.
Everyone likes to see the little ones
enjoy themselves, and particularly to
see them take part in .entertainments,
and quite a large number of the parents
and friends attended the closing exer
cises of the kindergarten taught by the
Misses Taylor, which took place yester
day afternoon . A.nongother numbers
which greatly pleased all, Jessie Hos
tetler and Hartwell Woodworth sang a
duet which was wonderful for Buch little
ones. Ralph Gifford' also sang a little
solo. Ralph Gifford and Lloyd Welle,
Jessie Jones, Winifred Douthit, Jessie
Hoetetler, Bernice Moore and Ilene
Kelly took part in the finger plays.
One of the sweetest things was the

lor and JeBsiejJonee. The entire program
was splendid nd showed good training.

CIRCUS DAY.
Fodi Thousand Visitors In tbe City An
Immense Parade.
Talk about Fourth of July, firecrackerp,
peanuts and eagles. " It may eound any
thing but patriotic, but it isn't in it with
circus day, parades, balloons and circus
lemonade, taffy, chewing gum, best
fellows to swing bands with, and num
erous other enjoyments attendant upon
such an auspicious" occasion. If there's
one day above another that ought to be
a holiday its circus day, and its cruelty
to animals to keep us shut up in offices,
scores, shops, etc., when the Circus is in
town, for it is as much of a circus to be
on tbe streets as in the tent.
Its equally as cruel as keeping the
children home from the performance.
As David Harum asserts, a small boy
will remember his first circus if every
thing else is forgotten.
Everybody wants to see the circus
old and young, little and big, small and
great, and in spite of the oft-repeated
assertion "I wanted to have the children
eee the show ; as far as I am- concerned,
I've seen lots of such things and they
are all about the same," the honest
truth is that it is almost an impossibility
for anyone to resist the novelty of it.
Another assertion that can't be
proven is the one which brands the
circus as detrimental to a town, claim
ing that they take the money out of it
True, they take a great deal out ; but at
the same time bow much do they cause
to come in? Ringlin; Bros, stopped
here moBtly for the purpose of feeding
and in that way they individually leave
much here. Then the amount expended
by visitors will be enormous, not alone
in hotel bills, but our stores have been
crowded all day, and must necessarily
be the gainers thereby.
All day yesterday and today wagon
load 8 of people were coming into tbe city :
from every direction, tbe crowd com
ing down the brewery grade this morn
ing reminded one of a procession. Early
last evening every hotel and lodging
house was crowded and had to tmn
people away, while many families
camped in the outskirts of the city. It
is estimated that fully 4000 visitors are
in town.
Somehow Tbe Dalles forgot itself this
time and instead ot dealing out the
usual wind storm, even caused the same
to bide its face so that we might be
more comfortable until after the
parade. From 6 in the morning the
streets have been crowded, and by 10,
as the parade began, it was almost im
possible to pass along the sidewalks.
At 4 o'clock the trains began to arrive
and many of our citizens were on the
grounds to watch them unload, wl i h
they say was most interesting, every
thing being done in such an orderly
manner that by 8 o'clock several acres
of canvass was stretched and almost a
thousand members of the aggregation
were eating breakfast in tbe large din
ing tent.
The parade which took place at 10 was
perhaps a mile long, and the best ever
seen in this city. Among the many
brilliant features were the neat animal

Immense crowds attended the per

of it. However, judging from the re
