RDUG SHOWS
REPEAT SUCCESS
Big Circus Strikes Popular
Note Just as it Has to Tears
of the Past.
SPECTACLE IS A WINNER.
"Marvelous in magnitude, match
less in merit, majestic in magnifi
cence," just about expresses one's
-feelings after attending the Ringling
Brothers' circus. ,. The big tent would
not hold all who wished to gain ad
mittance yesterday afternoon and eve
ning, but the management adhered to
their rule, to not admit more than
the seats will accommodate. The per
formance in every respect was a strik
ing illustration of advancement in cir
cus entertainment lne ettect ot an
efficient organization was evident in
every department
. "Cinderella," a fairyland spectacle,
was the opening feature of the pro
gram. This entrancing pantomine
held the attention of old and young.
It was the most pretentious circus
spectacle ever seen here, and the mar-
' vel was how such an elaborate pro
duction could be staged within the
limitations of a circus. In this spec
tacle were shown the regal pomp of
ceremonies, brilliant settings, and a
fairyland atmosphere which carried
the spectator back to his storybook
days. The grand procession of the
' prince and his gorgeous entourage
around the full length of the outer
circus ring challenged the admiration
of everybody. 4 , : ,
Eos for Joe Stecher.
' Johannes Jossefton it a native of
Iceland and if the way he performed
yesterday is any criterion of what he
might be able to do in a pinch, there
is no doubt that he could keep Joe
Stecher and few others busy at the
same time. He threw three "bad
men" at one. time and wasn't a bit
tired after the feat. ' The troupe of
Japs gave an exhibition of jui jilsu
wrestling. 1
It would take a long story to tell
of the many,' many remarkable acts
ot skill included in the entertainment.
The Ringlinga have demonstrated
that a large circus enterprise may be
operated on just as substantial basis
as any amusement enterprise. The
only disappointing feature about their
engagement here was the fact that
more people wanted to attend the two
performances than could be accom
modated, notwithstanding that the
tent used is the largest now in use
in this country.
It was estimated that more than
20,000 people attend the two perform
ances yesterday. i

Roumania hit been credited with a
long-cherished ambition to annex
these provinces and at the same time
"liberate" the Roumanians now under
Austrian domination. Recently it was
reported Russia had offered Cserno
w:tx as a reward if it would unite with
the entente.. . '-' . i -'
Roumania also covets Bessarabia,
the extreme southwestern province of
Russia, on the Black sea, which was
taken from it by tha Berlin treaty of
1878. Reports have stated that Rus
sia also has consented to restore Bes
sarabia as a warvprixe, with its popula

. long Una for Attack.
Roumania has a border line as long
as the whole Russian western war
front on which to choose its point of
military attack. In what direction its
first blow might be aimed is only In-
nicateu ny us uesire to pour its troops
through the passes of the Transvl-
vanian Alps and the Carpathians into
Transylvania. .On the other hand,
Austria has been accumulating mili
tary forces at Orsova, prepared to at
r tempt to force the "iron gate" where
the Danube river touches the western
Roumanian border. Bulgaria is said
' to have stationed 100,000, or more,
troops along the southern bank of the
Danube to protect its northern fron
tier from a Roumanian invasion. :
Bulgaria and Oermany.
Aoorehension in German that Sou.
mania intends to permit Russian

to attack the Bulgarians has been ap
parent for some time. Military au
thorities in Budapest assert that the
chief factor for the consideration of
the centre! powers is not ie half mil

but the opportunity offered for a new
Russian invasion of Hungary, Rou
manian sympathizers in Transylvania
have been sent to other sections and
the Roumanian priest and churches
there have been kept under military
supervision. The Transylvania Rou
manian frontier defenses hive been
strengthened by Austria as a ore

Powerful influences of the central
powers and allies have been exerted
at Bucharest to influence its decision

Another reason for delay in it de

schools, who was injured in an auto
mobile accident last night near Chris-
man, III., is in a hospital here today
with eicrht broken ribs, a crushed

rested easy last night, but was still un
conscious this , morning. Mcrarren
Davis, editor ot tne fans (in.)

Golden Hoard
Chicago. III.. Aug. 28. Seeking a

Morrison, the eccentric millionaire,
whose wasted fortune is the subject
of investigation by the federal court
Attorneys tor tne receivers win ask
for a formal court irder tomorrow,
directing a search for the missing
gold.
The garden of the old man's home
will be spaded by the seekers after
buried treasure and the walls of the
ramshackle home will be probed. That
vast sums of money have passed into
Morrison's hands in recent .years is
asserted by attorneys. It is also
claimed that while the aged million
aire spent and gave away his money
with a reckless hand, he had a passion
for hoarding gold coins and would
never part with one. As there is no
trace of any large sums of gold being
banked it is believed probable that a
secret hiding place may be located at
Morrison's home.
Tomorrow Attorney I. ' R. Ward,
who holds deeds to $2,000,000 worth
of Morrison's property, will be asked
to produce his books and records in
the federal court.
