Here Is a hoop-full of circus stars. Only. In the parlance of the "white
tops" the big tissue-covered hoops are known as "balloons." On the other
hand the gHily colored spheres that the public calls balloons are "cherries"
to the clrcusman—a name no doubt derived from their appearance when
carried in clusters.
The girls here pictured arc three of the many famous equestriennes who
will appear when Ringllng Brothers and Burnum & Bailey Combined ex
hibits here. The hoop is one used by May Wit'th, star among: bareback
riders. In her act site does a backward somersault through the hoop from
one galloping horse to another. There is a tirni belief among circus per
formers that the passing of a used hoop over the head will bring luck and
the accompanying picture was taken at a time when the trio of eques
triennes and one of the clowns were in the act of flirting with fortune.
Bareback riding is one of the biggest features of the mammoth super
circus that lias been formed by consolidating the better parts of America's
famous snows. May Wirth and the famous Wirth family, the live Daven
ports, the noted Hanneford troupe of jocko and comedy riders, the laugh-
J ' h wrf equestrian. Signer Bagonghi, the MacPherson clan of daring
Scottish horsemen and the ( astellos are among the host of the world's fore
most riders who will bo presented here. These but head the great congress
