A STUPENDOUS AGGREGATION. Scoroa of Paesongor, Stock and Flat Railway Oars Fill tho Railroad Siding A Sunday Off in Town. HE circus Is hero and tho small boys, tho old buys, tho girls, young Indies, and thoir mothers are revoling In a spasm of delight. Adam Forepaugh's Shows arrived in town at about eight o'clock yesterday raornt n g, having left Shamokin immediately after tho close of tho performance there last night. Tho Telegram announced that tin shows would Sunday at Ashland, but they did not. They came direct to this town and before noon tbo tops of tho scoros of whito canvas touts peeped above tbo high dirt banks of tho Indian Ridge and Shenandoah City colliories. Feoplo flocked to tho grounds from town by tho hundreds all day yostorday and gazed in wonderment upon tho coliossal amusomont plant. Tho shows may justly lay claim to bo tho "greatest on earth." Tho immense strings of brilliantly dccoraUd cars, the innumer able mammoth tonts, tho hundreds 0 closed and ouen wagons, hundreds of chariots and other fantastic vehicles present a sight beyond all expectations. It is roally wonderful. But aside from the immense quantity of property lb shows carry look at tbo army of men five hundred men of-all-work alone I Ukrald reporter visited tho grounds yes terday in timo to witness the preparations for dinner. A short distance from tho immense tents used for dining purposo scoro of immense cauldrons wero suspended abovo hugo piles of burning logs. Over hundred men flitted to and fro like bees preparing tho meals for tbo thousand or more performers and others wh s'rollod about tho grounds reclined upon impromtu couches in the tents awaiting tho ringing of tbo dinner bell. In comes men with several bushel bags full of potatoes. Into tho cauldrons thoy go. Now comes tho coffee, followed by bucket aftor bucket of milk. Enough for thousands ono would think, but none too much for the army ol people that must bo kept for Forepaugb's Shows. Tbo dinner bell ringf. A small boy runs bore and there, ringing it. Evorybody is not! fled. Then the circus people stream to wards tho dinning tents. A wondorful sight. "Women in flno and plain clothes, prosperous male performers and animal keepers follow, and closo upon thoir heels are Moors, the Kybales and Asslaons. peep into tbo dining tent forms the climax. What a gathering to feed I "What a stupendous affair is tho traveling circus I Sfc "Q " a IHr& The parade of tbo shows to-day was tho grandest affair evor witnessed in tbo town It was amazing. A drum corpi hoadod tho procession. A band was unnecessary, The splendor of tho line in the roar was dazzling and the people would not have heard tbo notes of tbo instruments Twenty-four magnificent steeds mounted by handsomely dressed equestriennes and equestrians follow, and then camo tho 1 dragon car. tho Immense globo surmounted by tho "Goddofs of Liberty," lloraan chariots, vehicles carrying Japansedwarfs, Turks, clowns and other individuals, cag-1? f wild animals, cagos of animals with trainers sitting in thoir midst, herds ol gigantic elephants, drovos of omols and dromedarios, and the calliope wagon. The fake" farmer was an amusing incident. Tho "farmer" was a perfect counterpart of tho regular "bayseeder" and sat in a wagon rawn by a worn out and badly fed steod. When tbo driver saw a policeman be would drive in a zigzag fashion that throatonod to mar the parade and when an Ulcer interfered tho "farmer" would wink knowingly and pull back into lino to await another opportunity to "work" on some uninitiated. JTT The people aro warned to be on thoir guard while the circus remains in town. Fakirs and crooks aro on hand in hundreds and too strict a watch cannot bo kept. Tho managers of the shows have two detectives who will aid Chief Burgess Smith and Chief of Police Davis to spot the suspicious characters and make their arrests p issible. If any families leave their homes with. out occupants they should see that all windows and doors are securely locked, and at all times a watch should bo kept lor sneaks. In contrast with the action of tho Potts ville authorities, Chief Burgees Smith says bo will grant a liceneo to no fakir, but will arrest any caught plying their vocation. Business people are warned against the ''flim-flam" gamo. At least half a dozn saloon keepers on Main street wero duped Saturday night. An attempt was also made, to work it at tho pot office, but it failed. This gamo is an intricate ono and many havo fallen Into it when thoy sup poeed their ejes wero wido open. One Main street saioonist who oxplainod tbo gamo to some friends one night last week was bitten Saturday night, so too much vigilance cannot be exercised. The Forepaugh 6hows as seen when they were last hero aro retained. There has been introduced so many distinctive novel ties, however, as to make tbem of para mount interest. Among them is a gonuino Moorish Circus Co., comprising thirty-five mon, women and children, brought direct to America by spocial permission of the Sultan and French governments. Another is tbo famous double revolving trapeze act, performed by tho world-famous Vaidis Sisters. The greatest of them is The Fall of Nineveh, a sublime, Biblical spectacle producod by Itottlg, tho famous originator of that form of entertainment, and whoso Fall of Babylon, Iiomo Under Nero, and other spectacular productions at permanent locations are so well known. The Fall of Nineveh surpasses all the others in its grandeur and magnificence, despite the fact that it will have to bo transported al most daily from one city to another. It is unqueslionably the most brilliant display of spectacular Eplendors ever witnessed in any country and time, and its production is the crowning glory of tho triumphant career of tbo Adam Forepaugh Shows during the past 29 years.

THE THEME WAS ABLY HANDLED Dr. Whitney, of Washlnjrton, D. O., Occupied tho Pulpit In tho Methodlat Episcopal Church Sunday Morning. f ' "i HE (METHODIS T VfcT p Episcopal church, on Sunday evening, was well fillod with pooplo to hear Dr. Whitney, of Washington, D. C, who delivorod a tell ing Bermon on "The Insidtousnessand Pro- gresslvonoss of Sin." Ho is a verv interesting speaker and held the undivided attention of tho congroga- tion for an hour and a half. His text was from tho first Psalm, and aftor somo in troductory remarks ho dwelt upon tbo evils of tho drink traffic. Its disastrous effects upon tho individual, tho family, tho church, the courts, and society at largi wore considered. To keep up the army of drunkards requires ono boy to every five familios. We complain of hard times and congratulate ourselves on tho reduction 0 our taxes and forget that it costs society ?6 to protect itself against the evils of tbo traffic for every $1 that society receives from it to say nothing of tho incurable evils that remain. Tho worst form which the evils appears Is to bo seen fashionable life, and gilded saloons. It is not tho drinking habits of the drogs of society that wo havo to fear. so much as those of tho scum. Yctir boy will not stoop to the ground and crawl into a hole to drink but tho fashionabio vosti bulos of hell that are furnished with all that appeal to tho osthetical naturo may allure them. Tboro is no danger of tbem being tempted by tho bloar-oyed sot, but when the glass is extended by tho dainty hand of the votary of fashion they aro in dangor. The d?vil is not hard to resist whon he appears as a devil, but when h stalks forth as an angel of li&ht tho very elect aro liable to bo deceived. If for th first time one should propose to start the saloon business and it was announced before hand that' it would impoverish its victims dethrone their roason, desolate thoir homes, buy up our legislatures, corrupt our courts, defy our laws, mortgige our postority, th whole community would rise in majestic indignation and say "stop or die on th pot." But becauso it has risen to such bad preeminence by slow degrees and imposed its slavery upon us a littlo at timo wo submit. Ho was glad to find general awakening upon tho subjoct all along the lino. Tho Methodist Episcopal church he s-iid stood in advanco of any other ecclesiastical body in its of flcial declarations upon this question. H also paid a high compliment to tho Koman Catholic church for tho progress It is mak ing towards prohibition. He bad attended gatherings in the intorests of temperance in which from the same platform Koman Catholic and Protestant prelates together with that "uncrowned queen of America, Francos E Willard," had poured forth streams of eloquence against tho saloon and in favor of thoir overthrow. He closod bi oloquent discourse with an earnest appeal to all to abstain from all that can intoxi cato, and especially to young ladies to raise the standard of morality and sobriety in young men by receiving attentions from no young man who tampers with the intox Icating bowl.

In this country they havo equal rights with tboso of other 1 aces : and no good American is influenced against them becauso of such violent, foolish utterances. Indeed, such a circular creates sympathy for the Jews and we IbLk thoy will soon find this to be a fact. They rnuit pay no attention to the matter. It is tbo duty of Shonandoab's officials, however, to seek tho persons who aro responsible for tho circular and to punish them.
