In a review of the Greater Norris and Rowe circus, museum, menagerie, hippodrome and congress of nations which will exhibit in Dallas after noon and night, Wednesday , May. 6, Colgate Baker, the dramatic critic on the San Francisco Chronicle, of Jan uary 12 wrote : "The Greater Norris and Rowe circus and hippodrome began an Indefinite engagement at the Auditorium yesterday and were greeted by large and enthusiastic audi ences. The development of the Norris and Rowe circus has been progressing rapidly, and the variety and scope of the programme offered yesterday could not be surpassed by any circus com pany In this country. There are fif teen display feature aots exhibited, as well as scores of others, almost as entertaining and of no less importance. The menagerie has been enlarged to formidable proportions, while the cos tuming and ring management is first class in every respect. So many good things are presented that many visits will be required to the big circus, If one wishes to see all that is being pre sented. They are today In the very fore rank of the big circuses of this country. It is doubtful If a better per formance ot the kind has ever been seen in San Francisco." ' During the run of the show in San Francisco, which extended over a per iod of thirty days, 279,873 persons paid admission to see It. Their success in San Francisco was tbe most signal one ever achieved In the metropolis of the west" The entire press of the city was in accord in proclaiming it to be the best circus ever given in the oity.
