IOU. i BARNUM & BAILEY. - The . Last Cireaa et the , Season, Also the Best, . Here Tomerrerr. Tomorrow the sights and wonders of the Barnum Bailey Greatest Show on Earth are to be locally revealed. Tomorrow the bands will play, as only circus bands can play; the "grand, gorgeous and altogether glittering" free street parade will illumine the streets, .the giraffes will twist their rubbery necks watching the gsplng crowds, the elephants will go through their "stunts" with oaly an occasional trumret note of protest, the living skeleton will perform the dally task of eating three square meals and losing flesh, the flying meteors will take a few more trapexe-lmpelled Journeys through space, the champion bareback rider will turn a somersault from one horse to another, the acrobats and contortionists will violate a few physical laws and come up smiling; Volo,. the vblltant, will ride flfty feet through space on a bicycle, and Ancilottt will turn a complete somersault on a bicycle while "looping the gap," and, finally, after the string of race horses has set the nerves of the crowd tlryrllng with the Incitements of flat races and Roman standing races, and monkey and pony races, and races between two and four-horse chariots, will come as a fitting climax to the wonders of the exhibition. In other words, Monday Is circus day. The tents will be erected on the old show grounds at Twentieth and Paul streets. The two performances to be given here will be preceded, between and 10 o'clock, by a gorgeous free street parade. The perform ances begin at X and 8 p. m. sharp. The doors will be open an hour earlier. There will be much of Interest to see In the soo loglcal pavilion. The menagerie Is notably complete and is especially interesting this year from the fact that four specimens of the exceedingly rare giraffe are exhibited. There are also thirty big and little ele phants, a baby kangaroo, a baby sebu and scores of other animals well worth study. In the soologlcal department Is alse pre sented the remarkable congress of human prodigies. Including the wonderful Horvath family of midgets. The performance In the main exhibition tent begins wlth'the new spectacle, "The Durbar at Delhi," a gorgeous bit of oriental life and coloring. The circus performance, which enlists the supreme efforts of 300 clever artists from all parts of the world, follows. Owing to the great amount of paraphernalia to be handled, the sensational Volo and Ancllottl acts will be given in the early part of the program at the night show. Reserved seats will be on sale show day without any-advance in price at the store ..of the Beaton Drug Co., Fifteenth and Farnam streets. ROUTE OF PARADE.

OWNERSHIP 0F THE ALTON Control Sld to Be Vested in Harrier and Final Interests to Rock . Itland. ' News comes from the east that, accord ing to the best Information, the Alton rail way ownership Is centered in Edwin Haw ley and interests favorable to the Rock -Island Railroad company. John W. Gates la a large shareholder, but his Interests do not represent the balance of power. "It Is true," says an eastern report, "that Mr. Harriman and the Kuhn-Loeb Inter ests of New Vork wore after the control of the property and that tbey made an offer of 800 a share for the common and 190 a ' shure for the preferred sharos, but not until they had discovered the Rock Island people were quietly acquiring large amounts of the stock. The control since the reorganization of the company ha rested with Mr. Harriman through prextes held by him. The offer was for stock to be turned over to Kuhn-Loeb & Co. at prices named above and by the banking firm to an unnamed buyer unquestionably the Union Pacific. "The time under which stock may be de posited with the New York bankers at the prices named does not expire until Septem ber 28, but from the evidence now at hand it Is practically certain the deal will not go through. "The Alton la in hands not antagonists to the Rock Island company, but neither are they antagonistic to any other railroad interest. Manifestly it is to 'the Interest of any railroad to work In harmony with other railroads. Peace is cheaper than war. The purchase was made not as a speculation. but because the property would be usoful to the Interests that have bought It.- ' "It Is understood there Is very little like lihood of the property being turned over to the Rock Island.". It Is further stated that the Hawlcy-Rock Island Interests have secured enoueh stock. that they will. not be compelled to do busi ness with Colone". Gates, even though he evidently "butted into" the scheme as nr.oney-making proposition. ' LABORERS' PAY FOR DEPUTIES Klaeteea Ceats an Hoar is All Itrlk. ere Want Power's Hts to Get. A petition signed by seventv-thrM nil. Ing house strikers and others was presented to the county commissioners asking that me aepuiy.snenrrs be paid only the wages tamed by other unskilled labor In the meat business. This petition came In be cause the commissioners had rescinded a resolution In regard to the denutioa' nv and the signers understood the men were io oe paia IZ.W a day. They believed the 1 cents an hour they were themselves paid was sufficient for the deputies. The mat ter was ictt to the committee of the whole. Only two bids for the Ak-Sar-Ben elec trtcal work on the court house were re ceived and these were rejected. The Wolff Lovltt Electrical company wanted to do the work for 8240 and the Western Electrical company submitted a bid of 8280.
