Salem youngsters weut to bed
last night dreaming of clowns
with funny painted faces, giraffes
with necks that reach up into the
skies, wise old elephants with
flapping ears and wiggling
trunks, pretty girls in pink lights
and short skirls blowing kisses -to
all and sundry while cavorting
about the tanbark rings on broad
beamed horses, and goodness
knows what else.
And today the dreams come
true for the combined llingliiig
and Bornuin and Bailey Bhows are
again in Salcni, and urchins are
indulging In all manner of In
trigue so as to he under. the - big
top'' for one or the other of the
two performances today. The
circus came here from Portland,
the first of the four long trains
of 100 cars arriving before rosy
fingered dawn had tinted the
landscape, many youngiters brav
ing the Ire of parents and tum
bling out of bed while tho Btars
were still shining so as to bo on
hand early to greet the red wagons
and circus folk. Urchins wore on
hand ranging from the bald stage
of Infancy to the bald stage at
tho other extreme, while quietly
and with all the dignity of a
Sunday school gathering the
huge wagons rumbled off the flat
cars and sent quickly on their
way to the show grounds.
The lnu train brought the ele
phants, camels, yaks, sacred cat
tle, zebras, llamas, nnd what the
circus people call the "led" an
imals, because they move majes
tically Into port under the men
agerie tent from the trains under
their own motive power, as con
trasted with such aristocrats of
the animal kingdom as the
giraffes, hippopotami, rhinoceros
and "cat" anlmnls who traveled
de luxe In scarlet and gold dens
and cages with nary a knothole
through which curious Juvenile
eyes might peek.
Thw was no etreet parade this
morning, nor has one been any
where given by this circus in five
years. The entire morning was
utilised In erecting the 30 tents
necessary for the days housekeep
ing, and it was not until about
the noon hour that Jim Whalen,
architect of the canvas city, pro
nounced all In readiness for the
matinee performance.
A performance is in progress
this afternoon and there will be
a last and complete show tonight
at 8 o'clock, doors being opened

escorting their parents a full hour

play ever brought to the coast.
The "big top"' beneath which
the wonders and glories of the
circus aro revealed to pop-eyed
urchins of all ages is a whopper
of an affair seating 16,000 people.
It shelters flvo rings, six stages
and the hippodrome oval, all
necessary areas of activity for the
800 men anil women performers
tho 350 trained horses and the
five herds of acting elephants.
The program Is all practically
new to Salem and is altogether
the biggest and best thing In the
circus line ever devised and pre
sented. Not even the super-
optical Col. Argus, himself, can
hope to see all that goes on when
tho circus gets well tinder way,
