The man with the cirous habit anu hit name is legion hereabouts, at 'all events doilbtlcil was up and waiting tot the first red wagon that reacnea the around this morning. The circus onthiminst sat ut) all night, if neces inl mirDOSe. lie saw 4 the big tents go up and the preparations made for an early breakfaat. He found a strange pleasure In watching the heavy NormanPercherotu. horses drawing! the huge canvas, pole and scat wa- gone across the uneven lot, and not one of the highly decorated aens anu cages escaped his vigilant eye.

The ponder ous tread of the forty elephants niiea him with wonder. The horse tents, with their 650 head of fine stock, en gaged his admiring attention, and when within two hours after the first attempt arrived the great tents were up, and everything ready for the circus, he looked around in a' wondering sort of way, as much as to say, "How on earth do they ilo it! Even the man who has been a faithful witness to the erection of every cir cus in his memory is puzzled to explain the clever trick by which it is done. The Ringling shows have grown to tremendous size. Eighty-five cars are necessary to haul the plant irom town to town. The big circus tent accommodates 12,000 people.

In it are three rings and a hippodrome track. There are 100 acts the circus pro-grom rendered by 375 performers. The band contains 50 instruments. Few people realize what a big thing the modern circus said the old circus man last night. "I mean one of the growth and size of Ringling they have 1,280 people on their pavroll.

who come from all parts of the world and range in color, white, black, brown and yellow. Nearly every language is spoken in the strange colony and all religions are represented. Most circus performers have strong religious leanings and rarely a Sunday goes by that the majority of them may not be found in the church of their choice. There are Greek Catholics, followers of Mohammed, Brahma and Buddha; Epis- eopaleans, mostly Englishmen; Presby terians, including the Baptists, Methodists, Lutherans and He brews. When on the road services are conducted by the minister with the showand altogether the differences in faith are so many, it is refreshing to see how reverently attentive Is each person." Ringling Bros, employ 610 performers; 125 bill posters and advertising agents, 100 railroad men, known as "razor backs;" 75 cooks and kitchen helpers, loO hostlers, or "grooms, as they are politely called, and 350 canvassmen, property men, menagerie keepers and less important people.

Every day in the week is pay day for some class of employes. The perform ers have one, the canvassmen another the railroad men one, and so on down the line. This plan makes the handling of so many pay employes an easy task The lowest salary is $50 a month. The eanvasmen, grooms and bill posters draw this amount. In this class come the clown understudies.

These clowns are made the butt of the real clown's okes. The best clowns draw $75 to $125 a month. The best riders are paid from $7o to $125, according to their ability and rep utation. Those who do sensational aerial acts and novel gymnastic feats get tho fattest envelopes. The Glinsereti troupe of acrobats, seven in number, the Dacoma family of gymnasts, the "Flying" Fishers and Frank (up-side-down) Smith, draw sal aries ranging from $250 to a shade less than $1,000 a week.

Among the riders, the Bedim family, father, mother and wo daughters, fresh from Italy, and Gilbert Eld-red, the English champion, rlraw splendid salaries because of the novelty and daring of their bare-bnek riding nets. The majority of the circus people have members of their family with them. You will find men and their wives, sons, daughters, cousins, uncles, aunts, nephews and nieces with Ring ling Bros. circus. The circus travels in special trains.

All of the eighty-five cars required belong to the management. he railroads only furnish the motive power. One section is composed or 20 sleeping cars. When the circus is spread out on the show lots it uses up 12 acres of space. There are twenty-four pavilions in all.

The circus tents proper will seat 14,000 people. It is 540 feet long and 16 feet wide. The menagerie tent is almost ns big. A huge' herd of forty elephants is lined up in the center of this big canvas. Around the sides are arranged the cages of the wild animals.

Ringling collection of wild beasts is the rarest and most valuable America. It includes such rare beasts as the rhinoceros, giraffe (two of them) tapir, black panther, alow leopard, horned horse and a nursery of baby wild animals. It costs $7,400 a dav to meet the ex penses of this big enterprise. Every body is fed bv the management, two performances are given every day, ex cept Sunday, during the season of seven months. The circus carries a doctor, haplain, veterinary surgeon, postmas ter, detective, barber, blacksmith, storekeeper and about everything that goes to make up a well-regulated village ex cept the charter.

To build up and tear own a village with a population 01 nearly people, every day, without friction or delav, is one of the wonders this age of system. The Bingling Bros. street parade started from the ahow grounds at 10 'clock this morning. This street dis- plav whs wonderful exhibition of the growth sad reourees of Ringling Bros. orM greatet tinw.

Of all the good, old-fashioned, time-worn and staple jokes, the best is that which deals with the father who has to go to the circus to take the children, for there are fathers foolish enough to try 10 tnn their neighbors with the fraud about going to the circus purely to nlease the children. The more candid franklv admit that thev co to please themselves. For love of the circus is Inborn and it lasts while life lasts. There were more men down town this morning at an early hour than on any ether morning this year, wnyi cause it was circus day. big show the biggest or next to the biggest on the road, was unloading at Mam street and offered a splendid opportunity to witness that most interesting exhibition in th nroeram.

the unloading act. It is a sight fully as good as tho parade or the show one pays to see, to witness the sBientinc unloading of a big circus from t'lie train. The men and teams work like machinery, speedily, accurately, scientifically, they have to in order to gee me iig aggregation uu me iraiu and to the ground and in place in time for the 11 o'clock parade. And it is a sight that many men never fail to see. They have enjoyed it since the days when they used to carry water to the elephants or crawl under the tent to see the marvellous slion-s or tneir youtn anu they appreciate the systematic unloading as much now as they did then, even if they don 't gaze with the same open- mouthed wonder that they did in their jouth.

Circus diiy Is always an event and it always will be. There is something about' this sort of entertainment that is different from any other sort of di Torsion. Perhaps it is the wide diyer aity of the skill shown by the performers, perhaps it is the noise and the bustle and the frank exaggeration of the aide-show spoilers; more likely it is a tittle of all. But whatever it is there in a fascination that catches the imag iniUion of the youth and stays with him through life and to the red-blooded citizen circus day is and always will be avn event. We might as well recognize the stub born fact.

Kansas never can have real sisterly affection for Missouri while the Qnantrell survivors continue to hold reunions and the university at Columbia persists in regarding the sunflower as a weed. Kansas City Journal. Kansas has a sisterly affection for Missouri, all right, but Kansas always will think it a beastly exhibition of a brutal sentiment that allows the Quan trell gang to hold a reunion in sight of Kansas City and brag about their thieving raids into Kansas; how they hot them down in Lawrence, unarmed citi.ens, surprised and helpless, many of them 111 tho back. Kansas never will endorse by silence, the Qnantrell gang of cowards and brutes, however much tho Kansas City papers may slobber over them, nor fail to resent their dirty insults transmitted through the aroresaia Missouri journals. The Western negro editors wnnt it distinctlv linderstoml that thev are op posed to statehood for Oklahoma unless there is an absolute guarantee against Crow" cars.

The negro editors ro right in their protest against such radical race discriminating laws, but have they any reasonable excuse for kicking so far as Oklahoma is concerned It is hardly possible that race prejudice will be so strong as to dominate in the legislature. There are settlements where the southern race sentiment is very pronounced, but this does 'it fiive grounds for any alarm among berfiidnred citizens. Oklahoma will be more apt ttt go republican in politics democratic enough to secure "Jim Smw" cars. A lot of Topcka children caught Governor Hoch with the old dropped pocket-book trick, and he "set up" the soda water for the crowd. The Topeka 'children must have gathered some JptfirKers regarding the Gogernor's salary and his expenses, and concluded that a fat pocket book would have superior attractions for the executive.

..1 A Peculiar Dementia, Noodcsha Sun: Yesterday afternoon a young and pretty mother with a very young baby got off the Missouri 1'acine local passenger train from the north and was taken to the Brown hotel where she asked for a room, saying ihe was very tired. The time was then about four o'clock and the lady went immediately to sleep. After several hours she awoke and went out on the streets asking the first person she saw the name of the town. When told it was Nuodesha, she burst out crying. It then developed that she did not know now she got here.

Her trip was wholly a blank, but being herself again she hunted up the long listance telephone and was soon telling her husband in a neighboring town all about it. It appears that the lady had been mentally very ill just previous and at the time of the birth of her child and for some unaccountable reason she took the train and came to Neodesha, get ting away from home without being missed. After a. short sleep the spell passed and she became herself again. Sleep seems to come to her suddenly most any time for she fell asleep afterward sitting in the parlor of the hotel carrying on a conversation.

Fortunately she took good care of the baby and is now probably safe at home again, having jeen sent north on the night train special care or the con ductor, SHE HAD TO TAKE 'EM. Presents Received by Miss Roosevelt Said to Aggregate $100,000. Washington, Sept. 28. It is roughly estimated that the presents which Miss Alice Roosevelt has received from the empress of China, the emperor of Japan, the emperor of Korea, the sultan ot Jolo and others in the far east, will reach a cash value not far short of $100,000.

Miss Roosevelt was placed in a posi ion where she could not decline any of presents without giving offense. The gifts came to her as the representative of the government, although she did not travel with any such credentials. As the daughter of the president she was regarded by the Orientals aa they regard the reigning families of European kingdoms. The gifts were tokens of friendship and good will for the United States and Miss Roosevelt could not have declined any, not even the pearl from the sultan of Jolo, without placing this government in the attitude of rejecting friends ly overtures. WHY JOHNSON CRIED.

"There's an End to All Good Things," and That was the Reason He Wept. When Nat Johnson got back from the Maine woods last summer, he told his friends that for the first time since he was a child, he sat down and cried. As he put it, "There I. was way off in the wilderness, and I had smoked my last Wadsworth "Chico," and knew -I couldn't get another until I reached civilivation. It is strange what a hold the Wads-worth "Chicos" get on a man.

They are absolutely free from all artificial flavoring, just the natural flavor of the pure Havana leaf, like that of a 25c. Carolina perfecto. They burn evenly, with a solid white asli that stays on as all good cigar ashes should. Chase Brown has the local agency for the "Chicos" and can now soil a genuine long filler Havana cigar for 5c, that is better than any of the 10c smokes on the market. There is no "six-for-a-quarter" about the "Chicos;" they are straight 5c worth 10c.

Try one and see how true this is. EXCURSIONS SOUTH, Homeseekers' excursions to "Nations Garden Spot."
