utiDg r.ome other sense , that he frequently
locked at me and always after thtoe ! n-
( prctiorie cmlltd like a man who finds ftome-

How long with three feeltnge. I could

lie said coolly. "I need" only detain you a
moment , .Mr. Taylor. "
'I vli wait for you , " I muttered , tin
gling all owr with a eudden hope. SVhlle
be a itiMde I could run for It.
1 Very well. " he Mid. "This waj. "
1 facrled that he had suspected nothing ,
and that perhaps I had been wrong through
out and ottrjojcd. I went with him to
the door of tbe bouce from which 1 bad
Men him emerge , ray Intention being to
be gone hot-foot the Instant hU back wa
turned The bouse was three-storied , high ,
narrow and commonplace , one of a row not
long built and but partially inhabited Ap-
parcstb he was at home there , for taking
a key from hie pocket , he opened the door ,
and ttood aside for me to cnttr.
"I will wait , " 1 muttered
"Viry well You can wait Inside , " he
answered
If 1 had been wl e 1 should have turnec.
there and thtn. In the open frtreet , and
taking to my heels have run for my life ,
and etajcd for nothing But , partly fool
and partly craven , clinging to a hope whlcl )
was scarcely a belief , that when be went
tipsta'rs or into another room I might
cUaltbllj unlatch the door and begone , I
let nyptlf be ptrsuaded ; and 1 entered. The
moment I had done co he whipped out tbe
Vey and thrusting'the door to with his Ehoul-
d r locked It on the inside ' .
Th < o the man threw off all disguise. He
turned with a laugh of triumph to where
I need trembling Jn the half-dark passage
"Now " he said , "we will have that letter
If jou please , Mr. Taylor. I have a fancy
to tee what Is In 1L"
"The letter ! " I faltered.
"Ye * , the letter' "
"I have no Utter , " I-tald.
"Tut-tut , letter or no letter , out with it !
IV ) you think 1 could not see you touching
your breast every half minute , to make
euro that you had It eafe , and not know
what was in the wind ! You are a poor
plotter Mr Tajlor , and I doubt If you will
ever be of any use to me. But come , oif.
with it1 UTilf E jou wrnt me to be rough
with you. Out with whatever it Is you
have there and no tricks ! "
He bad a way with him when he spoke
In that tone , not loudly , but between his
teeth his eyes at the eame time grow
ing toward one another , that was worst
than Ferguson's pistol , and I was alone
with him In'an empty hou e Some who
would' ' hnvc done what 1 did may blame
me. but In the ma'a the world is sersible
and I ehall forfeit no prudent man's esteem
whea I confess that , after one attempt at
t > Va Ion. iwhlch he met by wrenching my
coat open and thrusting me against the
wall eo violently that my head spun again ,
I gave up the letter.
"I warn you' I warn you ! " I cried ID
a paroxysm of rage and grief. "It is for
the duke of Berwick , and if you open it "
"For the duke of Berwick' " be answered ,
pausing and gazing at me with his finger on
the seal.Vby , you fool , why did you not
tell me that before ? From whom ? F.rom
that * cum , Ferguson' "
"From the duke of Shrewsbury , " I cried ,
rendered reckless by my rage.
"From the duke of Shrewsbury , " I repeated ,
thinking that he had not understood me.
"My God' " he eald. with a deep breath.
"And have I caught the fox at lost ! "
"You are more likely to be caught your-
eelt ! " I answered furiously. Nevertheless his
iwords were puzzle to me ; but his tone of
elow growing , almost Incredulous triumph
told something. Taking very little heed of
me , and merely signing to met to follow him ,
tie fprung up the stairs , and opening a door
led the way Into a buck room , bare and mis
erable , but lighted by the last yellow glow
of the western fky. It WMS possible to read
here , and without a moment's hesitation he
broke the seal of ( he letter and tearing the
packet opeu , read the contents.
That the perusal gave him Immense rat-

unholy Joy , was witness , no less than his

He bent hlc brons on me and I knew
that I had ce er been in crcater danger in

In this extremity , Comprehending that If I

I tried to push by him. "Gt back you fool ,
or It will be tbo worse for you. You arc ,

And refitting nil my appeals and remon-
trancK be thrust roe forcibly from the
door ; and whipping outside It , locked It
on me In tain 1 hammered on it with my
flat and called after him , and threatened
him. He clattered cnheedlni ; down the
ttalrs and I heard the liouee door flammed
and locked. I listened a moment , but all
remained quiet , and then , wild with rage ,
I turned to the window , thinking that that
way I might Rtlll escape Alas , it looked
only Into a walled j-urd , and was strongly
barred to boot.
God knows I thought mjtelf tben tbe
mon unlucky of men ; a man ruined when
( a th * point of a great slid emlngly as-
tured Eureefs ! I flung myself down In my
despair , and could have dabbed my head
against the boards But presently , In the
midst of my bewailing myrelf , and when
the first con\ulshe- of rage was abating ,
u new thought brought me to my feet In
a panic. What If Smith before he returned
fell in with Fergubon ; The meeting was
the more probable , inasmuch as. If Fergu
son succeeds ; ] In freeing himself , he was
us likely to hasten to the duke of Berwick
to warn him a to do anything else At
any rate 1 was not Inclined to sit , weighing
tbe ehances nicely , but hastening frantic
ally to tbe door I tried It with knee and
shoulder. To mr ) oy it j'lelded somewhat ;
rn which , throwing caution aside , I drew !
back and flung myself against It with all
my weight. The lock gaie way , and the
door flying open , I came ntar to falling
headlong down the stairs.
Still I had succeeded. But I coon found
that I was little nearer freedom than be
fore The passage wa now dark and the
house door when I found my waj to U re
sisted all my efforts. This dro\e me to cvek
another egreehwhich it was far from ca y
to find. At length , and by dint of groping
about , I hit on a door which led to a down
stairs room ; It was unlocked and I entered ,
feeling before me with my hands. The dark ,
ness , the sUencc of the empty house and
my hurry formed a situation to appal the
boldest , but I was desperate , and extending
my arms , I trod cautiously across the room
towlife the window should be , and sought
for and found the shutters I tried the bar ,
and to my joy felt it swing. I let it down
softlj and dragged the shutters open , and
sweating at etery pore saw through the
leaded panes the dark , dull lane jutslde ,
with a faint light from a neighboring win
dow falling on the wall opposite.
I was peeking for a part of the window-
that opened , and wondering wheth-r. failIng -
Ing that. I should have the courage to burst
the casement and run for It , when a fctep
approaching along the lane set my heart
beating. Tbe rtep came nearer and paused ,
and peering out , my face nearer the glass , I
saw a man had come to B Ptand before the
door. 1 looked , and tben , to say that my
knees quivered under me , but faintly ex
presses the terror I felt' For as the man
moved he brought himself within the circle
of light I have mentioned , and at the eame
time he raised his face , doubtless after
searching in his pocket for the k ° j ; and
through the glare my eyes met those ol
Ferguson !
CHAPTER XXVI.
If. a feir minutes before , I had thought
myself the most unlucky of men and plrced
by" that which had already happened bejond
fear or misfortune , I knew better when I
saw that tight from the window , and fell
back Into the darkness as if even from the
road and through tbe panes Ferguson's eyes
must discover me. Ignorant whether the
room in which I stood contained anthing
to shelter me. or , barewalled must of ne-
ce < .slty discover me to the firrt person who
entered with a light , my natural impulse ,
when the moment of panic passed , vas to
escape from it. , _ , , , . .
But it was not easy to do this in baste.
By that time , trembling in eery limb.
1 had groped my way Into the passage , the
key wae turning in the lock of the outer
door ; aud I saw myself within an arm's
length of capture. This eo terrified me that
1 sprang desperately for the staircase , but
stumbled o ver the lowest step and fell on
my knees with a crash that seemtd to
shake the walls. For a moment the pain
was so sharp that I could only He where I
1 fell ; nor when , spurred by the Imminence
of the danger 1 had got to my feet , could
I more than crawl up the frtalrs and crouch
down on the landing a little to one side ,
and out of cjeshot from below.
Willingly now in return for present safety
would I have forghen Fortune all her past
bullets ! For if Ferguson came up. as I
thought him sure to come up , I was lost ;
unce I could neither retreat without noise ,
nor if I could , knew -where to hide. In this
extremity , my b art beating so thickly that
I could scarcely listen and thought I must
choke , I was relieved to bear Ferguson-
after spending what etemed to me to be
an age , striking flint and steel in tbe pas
sage go grumbling Into tbe lower room ,
whence a glimmer falling on tbe wall of
tbe passage told me that he had succeeded
In procuring a light.
It was no surprise to me as I sweated
and cringed in my hiding place to learn
that hit wee in tbeworst of tempers. I
heard him swear KB I supposed at the
open shutter , then , almost before I had
thanked Providence for present safety , be
was out again in the passage I had no
doubt that hewas going to ascend now ,
and I gave mjself up for lost. But instead
he stood and called "Mary ! MaryJ Do ye
hear you hUbcy If je are hiding above
there it will be the worte for jou je d d
baggage ! Come down , d'ye bear me ? "
Surely now , I thought , getting no an
swer , be would come up ; acd my bean
ttood. But it seemed be called only to
make ture and not because be thought
that tbe wee above , for be went back Into
tbe lower room , and I beard him moving
to and fro , and going about to light a
fire , the crackling of which ga\e an odd
note of cheerfulness la the bouse. 1 was
beginning to weigh the possibility of clipping -
ping bj the balf-opeo door , on the chance
of finding tbe outer door unfastened , and
with thU in view bad rlsrn to my feet ,
when a key again grated in tbe lock , end
cuppctcing it to be Smith , 1 returned to
my former position ,
Had It been Smith It would hate been
eome comfort to me ; for I thought him
more prudent if no ICES dangerous than
the plotter , and I fancied that I had more
to fear from one than from two. But tbe
step that entered wai lighter than a man's ;
while Fergusrof greeting told the rest and
rnede tbe situation clear.
"Ha , jou are here at last , are you' " be
cried with an angry oath. "Did you want
me to break etery bone injour body , lass ,
that jou stayed out till now , and I to bate
the fire to light ? You thould have a
pretty good tale to tell or hate kept clear
of this ! D ye hear me ? Sptak , you viper ,
and don't stand there glowering like a wood
cat ! "
"I am here now , " was the answer. My
'heart leapt , for the voice was ii try's ; the
tone tullen fid weary , 1 could under
stand.
' 'Her * now ! " be retorted. "And that U

"Aye. call names ! " she answered bitterly
and it was not hard to discern that she
was beside herself with the long sick waiting

CHAPTER XXVII.
The terror that had gripped me en their
first entrance , and driving all the blood In
rny body to my heart , had there set it bound
ing madly this terror I should vainly try
to describe to persons who have never been
in such a situation or within a few feet of
death , as I then found myself That , reck
less and drhen to the wall , the conspirators
would nacrlflce me to their vengeance If
they discovered me I felt certain : and at
any moment they might come up and dis
cover me. Yet behind me were the confln-
Ing walls of the rooms whence I knew of no
exit , and before me , where alone evasion
seemed to be possible , the open door of
the room below , and the flood of light that
Issued from the doorway , forbade the at
tempt. I lay sweating and listening there
fore , while they snarled and cursed In the
black mood of men betrayed and hopeless.
"HERE FERGUSON'1 HERE'S YOUR MAN1' ! '
itreu 01 iiare uoaras aiiu UIUIH& auu an AMI
what' For those that when you have
brought them baik , you -will be as fierce to
oust , as j-ou are now to restore' And shameless -
loss it i * vou call me' " she continued -with
feverish rapidity. 'Shameless' Ha\e jou
not sent me out Into tbe streets a hundred
times , and close on midnight , and not a
thought or care what would happen to me so
long as your letter went safe ? Have jou
not Kent me. where to be taken was to be
Jailed and whipped , and not a thought ot
pity , or what a life It was for a girl ? Have
j-ou not done- this and more , " the continued ,
breathless with passion. "And more ? An a
vet % ou take oralse for feeding me ? And call
me graceless and shameless ? "
She paused and ga\e him room to speak ;
but though h& put on a show of bluster , 5t
was evident her violence alarmed him.
"O3d' nsmp and what Is all this' " he eald.
"What alls tbe girl. What has set you up
now , jou vixen ? " „
* You. " she cried vehemently. "You and
vour trade. "
"Well , " be said , -with a snort of sullen
reasonableness , "and what is tbe matter
with the trade ? What is wrong with the
trade. I say ? I'll tell j-ou this , my lass.
You would live badly without it. "
" 1 would live honestlj- , " she cried. "And
as mj" father lived ! "
"You drab ! " he cried. "Leave tbat alone. "
And that , and -when judging from the tone
of his voice I expected him to break out with
fresh oaths i d curses , there was instead an
astonishing silence , which fell for me at an
unlucky moment , for forgetting , in my de
sire to see. as well as bear , the risk I rau ,
I bad crept down the stairs , and now lacked
but a pace of seeing Into the room. The
noise ceasing , I dared neither take that step
nor retreat , and it was only when the silence
had continued so long that curiosity over
came fear that I ventured the advance , and
looking in saw tbat the girl , her fire and fury
gone , wcs leaning against the wall beside
the hearth her face averted , while Ferguson
himself , in an attitude of dejection scarcely
less marked , stood near her , his head bowed
and his bloodshot eye-s fixed on the fire.
"Ay. he lived honestly , your father. " he
muttered at last "It Is true , my lass. I
grant It But be had a fair wind , bad Alan ,
and a short course , and If he had lived to be
CO , Go3 knows ! We are what we are made.
I mind him well , and the burn we fished
and the pickle things we took out , and joar
mother that played w ith ua in her cutty Bark
and not a shoe between us or a bodle of
money , but the grten hills round us , and all
we knew of the world , that It lay beyond
them And that was all jour father ever
knew , my lass. And well for him ! AJ- , well
for him. But woe'e me and woe to the evil
king ! "
His voice was beginning to rise ; in a mo
ment he would have reached hia usual pitch
of denunciation , of which even now some of
his many writings afford a pale reflection ; but
at tbe word king there came a sharp knockIng -
Ing at the door , and he paused. For me , I
turned In a panic , and , heedless what noise
I made , I hurried up the stairs. The steps
croaked under me. but .fortunately tbe knock
ing was repeated so quickly and persistently
that It covered the sound of my flight , and
before 1 had more than ensconced mycelf in
tbe old place Ferguson , doubtless in obedience
to some signal , was at the door and had
opened it.
Immediately half a dozen men poured
nnlsilv In breathing hard and growling in
low tones , and passed into the room below.
But until the outer door was closed and
secured nothing I could catch , though fear
sharpened mv ears , was tald. Then , as
Ferguson went in after them , one of tbe
newcomers raised his \olce in answer to a
quettion and cried with a rattling oath ,
"what Is up ? What is up. old fox' Why all
is up' And we'll all swing for It before the
month is over if we cannot clear out tonight'
You are a clever one , Mr. Ferguson , but you
are caucht this time , with better men. Goi !
If I had tbe sneak here that peached on us I
would cut his liver out ! I would "
Two or three voices Joined in to tbe fame *
Um d drowned bit words , one asking
where Prendergast was , another where Porter
was , a third Indulging in threats 10 horrid
end blasphemies so profane that I turned
t-old where I crouched. I began to under
stand what bad happened , and my situation ;
tut that nothing might be spared me.
Fercuson. in a quavering voice that proved
all was news to him , asked again what was
th m t r
"The Blues are nwed , " cried three or four
at once. "Ttey were marching out when we
left. Tbe guards at Kensington are doubled ,
and tbe orders for tbe king's bunting to
morrow are canceled. Thejwere hurrying to
and fro calling tbe council when we came
away , and messengers were beginning to go
round the taverns They have seired tbe
borrfcs at the King of Bohemia's Head. "
"But i it certain I" Ferguson asked , with
a break in Ills voice.
"Ay , as certain * tbat we thall bang if we
do not cet over. " was tbe brutal aniwer.
"And tbe captain ? "
"I have been at bis lodgings. He has not
been beard of tinc noon. He ordered his
horte then , and they eay took tbe road ; and
h 1 to It. If that is eo , beis half way to
France by this. And cafe ! Sife. you devilt ,
and we are left here caught like rats ! "
"Ay , we'll go farther than France ! " one
shrieked. "As for me I am off. I eball "
"No , my God. you don't1" cried another ,
and flung hlm&elf as it seemed to me. be
tween him and the door. "You don't go tnd

all they might go out as they bad come , I
could so far keep my terror within bounds.
Not so , when I heardPerguoon bid the
man mount and fetch Utieikeg Had he
come w Ithout a light -blight still have
controlled myself and kffp.g&'ulet ' , and , hold
ing my breath , though ! 4were suffocated ,
and silencing mj heart Ihough I died , might
have lain and let him pasa Jn the darkness
I Naj- , had I crouched low , he need not have
observed me , with a light' : for I was a little
beside the stairhead , and o enter the room
whence I had broken out oe need not face
me. But when I heard him ( tumbling up
wards a sudden sense lot the loneliness of
the house in that Jarscorner of the town
came on me ; and with it , an overwhelming
perception of my helplesepess and of the
life and death struggle to xwhlcb the men
below were committed so tfiat death seemed
to be in the air ; which together eo far over
came me that I did tbe last thing I should
have expected. As the man came tip the
stairs , tbe light in his hand , I rose up and
stood gasping at him.
He paused and held up the light. "The
devil ! " he said , staring. And then , "Who
the are you ? llere Ferguson ! Here's
jour man ! "
Th5 only answer from below was a roar
for liquor.
"What are you doing here ? " he went on ,
puzzled as much by my silence as my
presence.
"I am going , " 1 stammered a desperate
hope rising In mj- breast at sight of the
man's perplexity. He might let me pafs.
For aught I know he would have done so ,
and It Is possible tbat I might have gone
unseen by the open door below and gained
tbe street. But as be stood staring a second
end man came into the passage , and looked
up and saw me "Hallo ! " he eald , "Who is
that ? "
"Ferguson's man , ' Keyes answered "But
boll me , if I know what Is tbe matter with
him ! "
The other called Ferguson , and he came
out and saw me. looked and , with a scream
of rage , sprang up the stairs. In the fury
of his wrath be threw himself on me so
suddenly and with so much violence and in-
tentioa that I waa a child in bis bands ,
and but for tbe other's exertions , -who. rot
understanding the matter , tore him from
me , I must have been choked out of hand.
As it was , I was black in tbe face , dizzy
and scarcely conscious when they freed me
from him. nor in much better case for the
respite. Tor with all they could do he would
not release my shoulder , but , dragging me
down , cried breathlessly and continuously
to tbe others to listen to listen ! Tbat he
had the traitor , that I wae the informer ,
the spy , the blood seller ! And with that ,
and as he partly forced and partly tugged me
dov.n , tbe men thickened around me , until
dragged Into tbe lighted room I foi-nd myself
hemmed In by a circle of lowering faces
and gloomy eyes , a circle tbat look where I
might presented no breach or chance of es
cape , no face that pitied or understood. He
who sermc-d to be ID the highest authority
among them afterwards I knew him for
Charnock , the unfrocked fellow of Magde-
len. who suffered with King and Kejcs
did inded make Ferguson let me go ,
tbrustirg him back and calling on him to
tell his tale , and ha\e > done with the blas
phemy But though I turned tbat way in
momentary hope of aid , I read no encourage
ment In a face as fetera and relentless as
it was fanatical. A lamp booked high on
cue wall , and eo that It threw Its light down
ward , obscured half the circle and flung a
bright glareon the other half , but In lighter
or ehade. seen or unseen , and whether drink j | 1
fluthe-d It. or passion blanched it , every face
that wet mv shrinking gaze seemed to be
instinct wltb coming doom.
In such situations fcar nbich spurs some
minds paralyzes otbera ; alnly I tried to
think. Tbe glare of tJiorjdainp dazzled and
confused me To Fe'gdeon's passionate iter
ations. "The IJOT& has delivered him Into
our hcnde ! There is your informer ! I swear
it ! I can j > roie It , " 1 could find no answer
except a feeble. "I am not ! I am not ! " which
I continued to repeat while one plucked
mo this way that he might see me better.
ind another that waj- until Kej-es struck
me on the mouth , and thrusting me back
bade me be tllent , I

Plainly. Say what j-ou know ; and bate no
fear. If whet you allege be proved we will
do justice on him ! " '
"Ay , by J" cried Caaifls , tbe Bwearer.
"A life for a life. "
"But first what do jw 'know ? " Charnock
continued bruwjuely. "Speak to tie point ,
\Ve must hate gone by midnight if we are
In saie ourselves. "
Then and tben only I think. Ferguson
hitherto blinded by rage , became fcentlble * |
of tbe fact that he stood hlmt-elf in a
dubious petition ; end that to tell all. and
particularly to reveal tbe vUlt which the
tecretary had paid to him at his lodgings ,
would even with tbe addition of the attempt
he had made on tbe duke's life place his
conduct in a light far from favorable. Not
only were the men before him in no mood
to draw- fine distinctions' , or take all for
granted , but it waa on tbe credit of hia
name and as his tool that I had come to be
mixed up ) n tbe matter and gained my
knowledge of it. It tok no great acuteness -

"What I know ? " said he. "Yon shall j

For a moment the roar of surprloe which
followed this statement rilenced him.
But in a moment he recovered himself.
"Ay. " he said , looking around him de
fiantly. "The secretary. What of It ? Do
j-ou think that you know eierjthing , or
everything is told to jou' Today , 1 * aj ,
the duke came to my lodgings. "
"Why" ' cried Charnock , between his
teeth. "Why ? "
"Why ? " Ferguson answered. "Well , If
jou will haxe It , to send a message
through me to the other duke ; as he has
done three times before since his grace has

"To tbe duke of Berwick ? "
"What other duke is there ? " the plotter
asked scornfully.
"But G ! If the secretary knows that
bis grace is in England. "
"Well ? "
"What will he not know ? "
" 1 cannot say what he will not know , Mr.
Charnock" the plotter answered with a
cunning smile that brought his wig to his
ej-ebrows. "But I tan say what he did not
know He knew nothing of your little
business For the rw t when be left me , I
missed my man here , and coming to Inquire
learned that he had been seen to Join the

to him and go away with him. That was
enough for me. J changed my lodging ,
slipped away here , and had been here an
hour when you came. As soon as you eald
that some one had peached today , I knew
who It was. Then Keyes cried that he
was here , and there he was ! "
But bow did he come to be here" " Char-
nock asked sternly , and with suspicion
"God knows' " paid Ferguson , shrugging
his shoulders 'I don't "
"You did nothing to bring him ? "
"Go to. for a fool' Perhaps he came to

"An end to that ! " said Charnock. pushing
him away roughly , "All the same , it this

"Well , it is true enough , " cried n man
thrusting himself forward while with
shaking knee * and chattering teeth
and tongue that refused to do

that might arrest the instant doom that
threatened me. "It is true enough' " he
continued , coolly. "I was on the wauh at

TOMOKIIOW IS ClItCLS DAY.
All Omnlin Ilenily to GIe Rtnullntr
Ilro ' . IMc Show n ltd ? ill Welcome.
Tomorrow is circus day. The mere an
nouncement is sufficient to set ordinarily un
susceptible nerve * a.-tingllng and to turn
young Omaha topsyturvjThis year there
are .several additional reasons beyond the
inevitable Interest always aroused by Ring-
ling Bros. ' big circus why show day should
be a gala event of more than usual Impor
tance. The show comes back to Omaha with
the perstige of a remarkably successful con
tinental tour and with its resources greatly
augmented by tbe addition of hundreds of
new features never before presented in this
city. Moreover , it comes at a time- when
the great business and farming communltj
is arousing Itself from a. long period of
lethargy and depression and when tbe dawn
of prosperous times creates a desire for
wholesome and legitimate amusement. No
shoA- that could come to Omaha could pos
sibly fill this requirement so well as Rlngllng
Bros. ' circus and there is no doubt that tbe
crowds in Omaha , tomorrow will thoroughly
demonstrate the change tbat has come over
the financial spirit of Nebraska during the
past few weeks.
The big show will reach the city during the
day and the tents will be erected on tbe old
exhibition grounds at Twentieth and Paul
streets. The picturesque scene of a big
circus in Sunday quarters is one which al
ways attracts great crowds of people and
the circus city will be tbe center of attrac
tion tCKJajRingling Bros. ' horie fair is
always open to the public on Sunday and
lo\ers of fine stock take advantage of tbe
opportunity to Inspect the more than 400
handsome horses owned bjtbe great show
The first event on Monday will be the
parade , which leaves the ehow grounds be
tween 9 and 10 o'clock , and parses over the
usual down town route. Ringling Brop.
street display this season is described as a
distinct departure from anything of the kind
ever before attempted. Among the notable
feature * in the thirty sections into which
the parade is divided , are characteristic
representations of all the most noted mili
tary organizations in the world , all in their
national uniform , properlj' accoutred and
mounted on magnificent war horses ; a mili
tary contoj in tbe Punjaub. wltb its ponderous
derous elephats. drawing great , lumbering
cannon and bearing East Indian sharpshoot
ers in their oscllliatlve howdalis together
with guides , native soldiers and all the Im
pedimenta of an Indo-BritUh army on the
march : a blood-qulckealng reproduction of
tbe Derby day meet , with huge tally-hos ,
slender spiders , pretty T carts , blooded rac
ing stock. London's society leaders. Jockeys ,
touts and other characteristic features of
English racing life , a brilliant picture of
Roman and Grecian splendor. a pictured in
the great spectacles of Rome and Athens ,
together with tbe Olympian games and char
ioteering of the historic dajs of Augustus ,
a caravan crossing the desert ; a complete
children'e parade , with pony chariots , tiny
tablaauxt miniature cages and other not el
effects dellghatful to the childish sense , ten
bands of music , 01 er a hundred dens , cages
and tableaux cars , and many other unique
repre entations. each presented complete In
its individual section , and comprising in
their entirety the most bewlloeringly beau
tiful and effective street display
ever conceited or successfully organ
ized. Rlngllng Bros. have aluaj-
been noted for tbeir glittering street dis
plays , but this eea < bon'e pageant is eald
to ecllpee an j thing eier offered by tbi e
enterprising managers.
Only two performances will be given in
Omaha tbe first at 2 o'clock and the final
one at S p. m. Tbe doort. will be open a
full hour preUously , to afford visitors an
opportunity to inspect the menagerie , which
