The billboards are announcing
that the Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers' shows are to give two ex
hibitions in Columbus on Tuesday
August 15. Great interest attaches
to the news because this is the first
appearance of the world's best circus
in this city for many seasons. More
over the show will come with an en
tirely new equipment, which cost the
owners the unheard-of sum of $3,200,
000. It was built in the foreign
workshops of the show in England by
the best artists, scupltors and specta
cle originators of the old world.
Every inch of the ten acres of canvas,
every costume, every one of the ela
borate vehicles in fact every piece
of property is spick and span new.
This is the first time in the history
of circus affairs that any show has
come forth in the spring new from
start to finish. It has not retained
even so much as a quarter pole of the
old outfit. The menagerie is stocked
with a new set of animals, purchased
and captured by the show's own trap
pers at a cost of $1,000,000, and with
the aim in view of keeping on exhibi
tion only those rare creatures which in
the past have been considered too ex
pensive for circus purposes, .and
with just enough of the common zoo
logical exhibits on display to make a
menagerie a complete exposition ol
natural history.
The task of selecting the company
of 350 performers was left entirely to
the five foreign offices of the show in
Paris, London, Berlin, Melbourne and
Peking. This was done so that an
all-European and absolutely novel as
pect would be given to the perform
ance, avoiding keeping the cages open.
It can be readily seen that a rare
treat is in store for those who see the
show in this city. The parade is
such a departure from old-time page
antry that it never fails to create
great surprise, not only on account of
its change in policy but because of its
unprecedented beauty and costliness.
It is three miles long. A million
dollars could not buy it.

York it is considered the pattern of
circus excellence. Its metropolitan
home is the Madison Square Garden.
This is the biggest building in Ameri

every nook and corner of it from the
expansive basement menagerie halls
to the great glass dome. The two
performances in ths city will be ex

Underwood
Standard
Typewriter
A LEADER
The principal of construction in the Underwood was
found first in the Underwood, and every typewriter seeking
business in the same field with the Underwood which
has been put on the market since the advent of the Under
wood, has been an imitation of, and in general appearance
like, the Underwood.
The last 'Blind" advocates of importance have now
fallen into line, and there is not to-day a single "blind
writing" typewriter actively on this market. Recall all
the arguments you have heard in past years by Underwood
opposition, and you will realize what an advance agent of
progress the Underwood has been; then bear in mind that
the Underwood was the first fully "viable," has had tim
to develop and improve, and is to-day the most perfect
typewriter made.
