THE GREAT WALLACE CIRCUS.
The Great Wallace Show, which is
to exhibit in this city for the tii-Ht
time in its history, recently visited
Columbus, Ohio, where the excellence
of the show pleased big crowds. The
Columbus Journal said:
“Columbus had ideal circus -weather
Friday, and the Great Wallace Shows
gave the citizens an ideal circus en
tertainment. The general verdict of
the thousands of people who had the
pleasure of witnessing the exhibitions
in the afternoon and evening is that
the Wallace shows are in the front
rank of first-class tented entertain
ments, and as caterers to the amuse
ment-loving public the management
is in a class by itself.
“At the afternoon performance the
big tent was tilled to its capacity.
But all records were broken at the
night exhibition. The rush was so
great that it became necessary to close
the doors twenty minutes before the
performance began and fully 1,000
people were refused admission. That
the large crowd was greatly pleased
with the performance was shown by
the hearty applause which greeted
every number on the long program.
The Great Wallace Show will ex
hibit in Newport on Tuesday, No
