Carnival Company Coming June 26th.
The Nat Reiss Carnival Company
will bo in North Platto for ono week,
beginning Juno 2Cth. Tho company is
in Kearney now and tho newspapers
there speak Jn tho highest terms of
tho shows. Mr. Peyser, tho advance
in. arrived here yesterday and will

ung everyuunK in reuuiness ior ins

pany makes all the large cities and
that tho Reiss Carnival is tho greatest
company on tho road. In speaking of
the uarnival Uieburne, Texas, paper
says:
The Nat Reiss Carnival Company
closed a week's successful engagement
hero Saturday night. This compuny
exhibited under the auspices of the
Kintr s Daughters, nnd with the i;x-
ception of being rained out Saturday,
and ono night cnriior in tho week, tho
crowds were very largo at every per
formance and with theso drawbacks,
the company cleared expenses and tho
King's Daughters netted a nico littlo
sum for their hospital fund.
iho Nat Kolas Company is a good,
clean one. It is n new ono in the
South, but Mr. Reiss is a pioneer, nnd
an originator of the carnival business
nnd has a reputation from coast to
coast as a showman. His attractions
here were all good, but most marked of
all is the stadium act in which Nick
Chafalo makes his wonderful nnd
death-defying act of loop the loop and
gap on his bicyclo. This is two grcnt
acts in ono and nas never been equaled.
Then tho free act in which Mat Gay
makes his high dive from a 92-foot
tower backwards into a pool of .water
4 feet in depth, is worthy of especial
mention. The other attractions, such
as tho glnss blowers, tho fiyinc woman.
tho flea circus and many more aro all
good.
Tho Reiss Company gave general
satisiaciion in uieoourno and will
good business if thoy over return.
