IRCVSES ar great, but playing circus bas
tbe former "beat a'J bollow." All tbe
wonder aod Emyulficeuce of tbe ftrrons
tented shows are dim mod Into Inslg-
niflcacce. when compared tr the Joy and
thrill of actually "getting up" a circus and taking
pr.rx. in it.
For this reason 200 boys of the Young Men's
Chr'atlan association were supremely happy Krl
d7 and Saturday. They organized the eleventh
annual burlesque circus of the junior association
red presented it three times before capacity
crowds of admiring and laughing parents, rela
tives and friends. In the "three-ring tent," other
wise known as the gymnasium of the association
building.
- Some lads were legs of elephants or camels;
others acted the parts of ferocious wld animals
or educated beasts, while others presented the
hundred and one necsnary fatures of a marvelous
tented exhibition of the world's rarest wonders,
freaks and apetaclea.
If old P. T. Barnuni could have come to Ufa
long enough to see tbe local boys' burlesque cir
cus he would bar turned green with Jealousy and
rtge, for the youngsters really bad Barnum out
liarnumed. Likewise, Tingling Brothers, Hind
paw and Smells Brothers were all excelled by the
grand amalgamated, conglomerated and plffllcated
seance of harmless buncombe. Ingenuity, skill and
comedy which the boys produced.
