tion of youngsters and grownups the
trains will be met by the circus of
ficials who are in the city to-day
laying out the show grounds, select
ing the proper site for the intricate
stagings necessary for the circus
spectacle feature, "In Days of Old."
and making all other eleventh hour
arrangements for the coming of the
"white tops."
One of the officials who will meet
the trains to-morrow morning is the
"24-hour man." He will rouse the
various bosses and their laborers and
shortly after will be begun the tre
mendous task of moving the contents
of the cars from the railroad yards
to the circus grounds. Once on the
"lot" the air will resound with the
*vr--.p of sledge and stage-driver,
great blue poles will be erected, the
commissary department get its-work
under way, the thousand animals of
the menagerie be safely housed, the
block-long canvas stables be bedded
Sown for Ringlingville's regiments
of splendid horses and in almost less
time than it will take to tell the
story, the entire tanbark town will
have been completed and its inhabi
tants seated at breakfast. *
Breakfast over with the prepara
tion for the morning parade sched
uled to reach the downtown streets
shortly after 10 o'clock will be got
under way. Preparing this season's
three-mile long street pageant is a big
task in itself. The scores of open
dens must be furnished to the bril
liancy of the sun. the big teams of
dappled grays dressed in their finest
trappinas. the elephant squadron
given a taste of the vacuum cleaner,
the clowns painted to within an inch
of their lives and the many tableaux
wagons decorated in gayest garb.
While .ill this is going on the hun
dreds oPmen and women who par
ticipate in the parade are donning
their eoustumes and musicians are
tuning up for the melodies that are
peculiarly characteristic of a circus
parade. One of tWe novelties of this
season's gorgeous procession is a big
brass hand mounted on handsoma
horses. That the musicians may glv.
both hands to their instruments'the
bridle reins are attached to the stir
rups and so the rider guides his
steed with his feet. Another innova
tion on the part of the Ringling
Brothers is the introduction of pneu
matic calliopes. One placed near the
center of the pageant is drawn by a
dozen shaggy camels harnessed and
driven like horses. A much larger
calliope of the automatic air type,
and operated by a gasoline engine,
brings up the rear of the procession
in lieu of the old-fashioned "steam
piano," which used to trail smoke
through the town. This new style of
calliope was built especially for the
Ringling Brothers and at a cost of
$7,000.
Following the street parade the
sideshow will be opened at the circus
grounds. The circus performances
will begon at 2 and 8 p. m., the
doors to the 1,000-animal menagerie
opening an hour earlier. The
Ringling Brothers are said to be of
fering more arenic sensations this
year than ever before. Prior to the
appearance of these will be present
ed the gigantic spectacle of knight
hood and adventure, "In Das of
Old." This pantomime will be en
acted bv a cast of 1,250 characters
and will introduce a ballot of 300
dancing girls. Following the fall of
the final curtain on the spectacle the
leal circus will begin. Among the
hundreds of arenic stars to be pre
sented will be Lily Leitzel, the
world's smallest and greatest aerial
gymnast; May Wirth. whose forward
and backward somersaults on the
back of a galloping horse and run
ning jumps from ground to steed
promise a sensation; the great Hil
lary. who will attempt to "leap the
gap" with skates attached to his
head; Austrian woodchoppers felling
giant trees in exciting contests; the
Otagawa and Tamakl troupes of
Oriental wrestlers and stranglers;
the Johannes Company of Icelandic
"glima champions;" Ernest Clark in
triple twisting somersaults in mid
air: Ave troupes of men performing
at the top of sixty-foot poles; and no
end of other marvelous features, in
cluding wodd,famous riders, leapers.
aerialists, acrobats, gymnasts and
balancers.
Aside from the more than 500 men
and women artists the circus pro
gram will offer many dumb animal
actors. There will be five herds of
trick elephants; three troupes of
wonderful seals and seallons; per
forming and posing equines, includ-
DIDNT THINK OF
CHANGE OF TIME
Party of Marysville People
Start Early For Mountain
to Observe Eclipse
MnryaviUe, Pa., June 10.—The new
| daylight-saving plan may have some
| advantages, but then again there are
some disadvantages. The disad-
I vantages become especially evident
when people fail to remember that
the system has gone into effect'and
use some reference with the old time
as the standard guide. A particular
example of this was seen on Satur
day evening when the plan cost no
less than a score of Marysville peo
ple an hour of anxious waiting and
dire forebodings as to whether some
thing had not gone awry with the
solar system when the eclipse of the
sun failed to appear at the appointed
time.
Baer's Lancaster County Almanac,
the World Almanac and all other al
manacs, patent medicine and others,
1 said that the eclipse would be first
noticeable in this section of Central
Pennsylvania at 5.31 p. m. So. un
der the leadership of a Marysville
divine, no less than a score of
Marysville persons went to the Cove
mountains to see the phenomenon. j
They started on their journey to
tlje mountains at 4.30 o'clock that
they might be at a suitable location
when the shadow first appeared on
Old Sol. Five-thirty came and no
spot appeared on the sun; 6 o'clock
and still the planet was unclouded;
6.15 and still the sun was a bright
as ever with no obscurity, and so
the forebodings.
Then ensued a period af anxiety
until "light began to dawn" on the
would-be astronomers. Then thoughts
began to filter through the craniums
| of some of the people and the day
light-saving system was thought of.
The astronomers remembered that
the almanac had been issued before
the system went into vogue and that
they had failed to add an hour to
the almanac time.

will prevail as on the show grounds.
