Long-heralded, Rlnglltig Bro ' shows arrived In Omaha from Fremont this morning for a Sunday holiday and one whole Joyous day of elephants and pink lemonade. The first of the four clrcu trains reached the Northwestern railroad yard before dawn. As fast as the section ar rived they were shunted onto sidings at fourteenth and Nicholas street. There the unloading took place and a continu ous cavalcade of wsgons, red and golden chariots and ail the rainbow trappings of Hpangletuwn wended Its way from the tracks to th Twentieth snd Paul streets show grounds. Prartercd rroupi of youngsters and thoeo grorvn-UDl Who are alwara Peter Pans when the circus cornea to town were on hand when tho first train pulled In noar the viaduct. Tbi-v watched nrf marveled at the precision of the unloading prock There was neither lost time nor reotlon tn getting the vast show equip ment from the cars to the show grounds.

Men rubbed their eves, stretched their llmha ana tumbled from the cars, each going about hl.i appointed work without hci. tsnry or doubt. Mart fir the (irusnili. Then cam the procession through th streets. And there Is always that peculiar something about the neighing of the hotees, the deep rumble of th wagon wheels end the clanking of the hsroess which every community lilies to hear nt least once a year and which affects one with that Indescribable longing for tha white tenU which, for want of a better phraae, I culled "red wagon fever." At th old clrcu grounds the scene Is one of methodical turmoil. Mon empty huge wagons and begin pitching the din ing and cook tents and stables. One mam moth affair on wheel opens Its side and. oenota: there I a twelve-foot range, which twenty minutes later ha been fired and la alive with slsxllng egg and bacon. Another wagon discloses a mammoth boiler that as quickly emits steam which, carried to Immense caldrons by means of hose, Is merrily boiling potatoes or turn ing cold water and Java Into piping hot coffee. In the meantime the dining tents have been placed, vast table have been laid with cloth and service, and, presto! all the people of the first train section r seated at breakfast for all the world Ilka soma great plcnlo party.

MILLIONS OF RABBITS A YEAR Growth of a Peat la Tasmania that Has Created m Sertoes Problem. As in other states In Australia, the problem of dealing with the rabbit pest haa been slven considerable attention by farmers and pastorallsts In Tasmania fori som time. The matter wa taken up by the Farm ers' and Stockowners' association - at a recent meeting of the council of that body. Among other things It was stated that information had been collected bearing upon the trade in rabbit skin In this state. The figures Indicated that not less than B.000.CO9 skins were exported from Tasmania each year, the value of which was under $230,000. As poison was also generally used for destroying the pest, it was quite safe to assume that as many more were killed, making the death roll equal to 10,000.000. Adding to that at least 2,000,000 left at the end of each winter to breed again, the conclusion was arrived at that the lands of the state were growing every year 12,000,000 rabbits. Taking these figure as a basis and al lowing fifteen rabbits to consume a much grass as one sheep, It waa computed that the rabbit waa occupying the place of 800,000 sheep, or. In other words, taking up about one-third of the lands, for which the state received under 1250,000, as against the value of 900,009 sheep, which would not be less than 11,600,000 at a low estimate.
