igreatest riders
Famous Equestrians to be seen only with
Singling Bros.' Shows.
With to enterprise and lavish dis-
regard of expense entirely original
with themselves, Ringling Brothers,
the famous proprietors of the
World's Greatest Shows, have this
year engaged not only all the lead-
ing male and female riders of the
United Stater, and thus left to other
•hows the alternative of either
sacrificing this important feature of
•n arenio exhibition or of accepting
performers of mediocre ability, bul
they'have also secured every notable
equestrian that the European dr-
omes have brought into prominence
during the past two or three sea*
sons. Mike Rooney, who heads the
list of champion male rider?, is one
oI the youngest, bat already the
greatest bareback somersault eques-
trian in the world. The bareback
celebrities of the past were amateurs
compared to this superb artist.
Associated with him are William
De Mott, Chaa. Anson, Jerome
Dieel, Albert Leonard, and other
world famous riders. Among the
numerous female riders, Elena Ry-
land claims especial attention for
her finished and sprightly perform-
ance. Bbe is the personification of
grace and dexterity, and has been
justly named the "Queen of the
Arena." This beautiful and dashing
equestriene is ably seconded by
Lissie Rooneo, Josie Nelson, Sallie
Hughes, Marion Leslie and a dozen
other equestriennes, each of whom
is an artiste of international cele-
brity. In addition to this notablo
array of riders, Ringling Brother*
offer the most complete ooncourse
of bigh-alass acrobatic, aerial,
gymnastic and other arenic novelties
ever presented by a circus manage-
ment, including the wnrld-famous
Nelson Family, the greatest acrobats
of the age. Many of these artists
have been especially imported by
• Ringling Brothers for this season,
and will return to Europe im-
mediately after the close of their
engagement with theso enterprising
managers. Among many other
novelties, especial attention has
been given to the trained animal
features of the exhibition, which in-
clude three distinct herds of mar-
velously educated elephants, won-
derfully trained sheep and goats,
whole schools of reason-endowed
horses and ponies, and a complete
pig circus, combining the most in-
credible exhibitions of animal intell-
igence, with the ludicrous antics of
the porcine clown. Ringling Bros.'
menagerie is the largest and finest
collection of wild animals ever exhi-
bited, and has recently been aug-
mented by the addition of an entire
zoological garden of rare and inter-
esting beasts. The grand spectacu-
lar entry, the Festival of Olympus,
ie a dream of wealth, beauty and
classic magnificence, and the revival
of the thrilling sports, . gladiatorial
contests and racing glories of the
ancient Roman hippodrome is a fit-
ting finale to a performance that has
never been equaled even by the pro-
prietors of this record-breaking ex-
position. The two performances to
be given in Brenham Thursday
October 8tb, will be memorable
among amusement events, and the
grand street parade, whioh will be
given at 10 o'clock in the morning,
will be the most glittering, resplen-
dent epectaole ever offered by any
circas management to the American
public.

night at the Methodist church
J. D. Campbell, familiarly called
"JOff," the worthy presic^t of the
League, discussed "The Ptintftna"
from the standpoint of Bill Nye and
other eminent historians, enlivening
the meeting at different times with
wit and wisdom on things both
general and particular. Miss Pearl
Perkins took the place on the pro-
gram of Mr. C. B. Felder, whose
throat was a little lame either from
the inclemency of the weather or
from too excessive manipnlation in
behalf of his clients, and tead an ex-
cellent selection on "The Public
Services of Franklin." Miss Corrie
Low gave a most admirable paper
on "The Lessons of Franklin's Life."
Then followed "Questions on The
Lesson," by Mr. J. D. Giddings,
which elicited all the information
the Leaguers had on band about
the characters and subjects they
had studied during tho past week.
The following is the program for
next Thursday night:
"I Love Thy Kingdom Loid,"

America. By the Choir.

SUNDAY CASES DISMISSED.
The grand jury for the fall term
relumed a number of indictments
agaiu«t different parties, principally
saloon men, for violations of the
Sunday law, and in addition to these
casep, a number of old ones wero on
the docket from last term. Meter*.
Borers & Ilerbst and Searcy &
G iriett were employed by the de-
fendant and the state was rcpre^
sented by Messrs. Matthews and
Swrrengen appointed by the courton
account'of the indisposition of Coun-
ty Attomey Buchanan. ThefirBtund
only case tried was that of B Leh-
mann against whom tho evidence
seemed to be the strongest. After
an exhaustive investigation and sev-
eral hours of speech making in
which all six oflhe attorneys took
a hand, the case went to the jury
and a verdict of not guilty was
promptly returne.l.
Failing to secure a conviction on
what they considered direct testi-
mony the state's attorneys request-
ed a dismissal of tli e other caseB,
and thus ended the effort to enforce
the fourth commandment in Bren-
ham. The moral of the result is that
a fellow can get a flask to irrigate
the dryness of decline or a little
wine or beer for his stomach's sake
most any time he happens to be
need of it.
