Three Stages and Three Kings.
One can get a gcsid id* a of the magni
tude of the Greatest Show on Karth by
considering for a moment that three
stages, three circns rings, and a race
track are required to exhibit the 100
acts. Besides these, again, there are
any quantity of aerial apparatus to en
able the skilled artistes to execute the
thrilling acts in the air which are their
specalities. Th*n there are two mena
genes. an elephant pavilion with three
herds of big performing pachyderms, a
drove of camels, cages of wild beasts,
birds, monkeys, etc., besides all the
curious led animals llamas, alpacas,
gnanacos. aud many others. And again
there is a most delightful exhibition,
wbicb is performed In the menagerie—
an exhibition of a in wt chirming char
acter executed by magicians, jugglers,
and queer musicians, and by the odd
people in the collection of freak?.
Aside from the people who are
grest cariosities, the entertaiment
is most praiseworthy. The exhibition
of living curiosities uiven in tbe mena
gerie tent is an excellent on<;, and bris
tles with picturesque episodes and liv
ng, acting lableanx* Nearv 100 train
id horses perform at one time in three
eings, also presenting a really majestic
spectacle, while the |ierformancert»f the
sthree herds of elephants in three rings
are wonderfnl. The entire show is one
of exceptional merit and well worth a
visit—in fact, it is worth a dozen visits,
for no one can see it all in less. All will
be here on Saturday Aug 22 nd. when
the splendid new street parade prove an
index to the delightful performances in
the water-proof tents, which are electri
cally lighted as well, and contain a foot
rest for every seat.

he drove her a»ide into a woods near
Renfrew and attempted to commit an

The prosecntiou of the Wilkinsbnrg
druggists for violating the Sunday laws
took an odd turn last Saturday. The
and the < 'ouucil of the town
are not on the t>esi of terms; the Bur
»reas and the Justices of the Peace ufi
remitted the tic*sot tneoffendingdrii_-
gists; the attorneys for the pri«.*csu<in
appealed to the Attorney general of the
-<Ute and on Saturday a member >f the
fi-tii of Stone & Stone, attorneys for the
li.' jsecntor- was quoted as st vin_';
••Tne An litor General of Penusylva
nia has instructed us to pi»cee<l ag»iist
:ne aldermen and justices who have re
mitted fines >n the case of the Wilkins
on rg druggists sued for violating ,he
IS ,nday laws, and collect the tines. T'h-
Attorney General tias given his opinion
■■at the remitting of the tines is against
me intent of the law, and holds that
every cent should be collected. He
•herefore authorize the Auditor Ge:ier
il to have them collected. &
Ttone will act at once and call upon the
aldermen and justices for all fines re
mitted by them to druggists of Wilkins
t'Urg who had been convicted in their
courts "
The next question is who will pay the
remitted fines?
The people of fariß went into hyster
ics last week over tbe trial of the Hum

bankers by a story of a fortune locked
up in a eafe. pending a decision on a

noted men of the Republic, and the
spectacular aspect of the case subordi
