self with dignity, and her sub
jects were proud ot the stately
lady they had chosen to rule dur

THE BIG SHOW.
As Seen by Representative of tlie Ga
zette Dorian; s Recent Visit- -
As we approached the Carnival
grounds we heard the bands play
ing, the lions roaring and the
merry-go-round. In fact, there
was something doing every place.
Coining closer we sighted the
nine fine waterproof canvass pa
villion witU their beautifully
(Striped side mU; Neat toe
main entrance we rntt tne mi
proprietor, Uu Arnold, ana alter
a few pleasant wordi with him,
we passed the Smiling faces of
the ticket sellers, and on into the
big Oriental Carnival. There
we saw on the mam stage acts
excelled by none: The De Gar
ros, the Roman ringr experts: the
Victorellas, the triplebar won
ders. Their hand-to haud and
foot-to-foot ballancing . was im
mense. Travola and the Doe
family fill important parts of the
show.
Prof. Home's monkey and dog
circus shows what may, ue ac
complished by months of hard
training. The dog performs
many new and exceedingly in
teresting acts. The trick- cot
tage, hoop-rolling jugglers, aero
bats and numerous other attrac
tions claimed our attention, but
by this time confetti was coming
-a . . -r
on, and we passed into tne Lor-
retta Vaudeville show. Here we
saw a revelation m nign class
vaudeville, the little ones display
ing skill, science and daring in
their mid-air gyrations.
The. actors in the Japanese
Theatre showed before royalty
18 months ago, in Tokio, Japan.
Their acts are new and their ex
hibition is thrilling and marvel
ous. The work that most astonishes
is done by Wallace's famous glass
blowers. It is a grand : sight to
see the glass machines working
in full view. -
Next we came to the Electric
Theatre. Scenes were depicted
upon a screen 15-feet square, as
clear and life-like as if they were
real, and all the great events of
late years were vididly shown.
The machine is Thos A. Edison's
very latest and the scenes are as
fine as any ever seen in Corvallis.
Now we looked up and found
we were in the plantation show
with Dick Robinson and his
troupe of sure-enough Southern
darkies. They give r an enter
tainment of singing," ragtime ana
buck and wing dancing that is
not slow.
We spent about an hour in the
menagerie. Here weres many
specimens of beasts of prey, and
after taking a number of snaps
with our, kodak, we went into the
streets o f Cairo, with the Hindoo
magicians, sword fighters, danc
ing girls, etc. This show will be
patronized by many.
We completed the afternoon
with a ride on the camel j Holy
Moses, a trip on the merry-go-
round and a swine on the ferris
wheel.
