APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE..
fire Department Asks PuWir to Wait
Until Next Week ior Whitney s
Greater Shows.
The Newport Fire Department
several weeks ago, and prior to
the announcement of the coming
of any carnival company, con-|
tracted with Whitney’s Greater j
Shows for a street fair engage-'
ment here the week commencing!
November 13, on terms that were
acceptable to the mayor, council
and county judge.
The fire boys are paying the
license of the shows next week,
and get a per cent of the re
ceipts. Whitney’s Creater Shows
to be here next week are far
bigger and better than the pres
ent attractions. They number
ten big shows, six big free acts
and carry the celebrated Jac
quinto Royal Italian band.
Wait and get your money’s
worth. Wait and help out the
fire laddies. Spend your money
where it helps home people, and
also have the satisfaction of
seeing the better shows and be
ing a part of the biggest crowds.
Yours respectfully,
J. R. Mayhan,
Chief of Fire Department.
JOHN ROBINSON SHOWS COMING.
inu>rir^\ Oldest and Most Wirieiv Known
Tented Organization Billed to Appear
Here Saturday, November 18.
Representatives of the John
Robinson’s ten big shows com
bined have just completed ar
rangements for the coming of the
“Father of Shows,” and the bill
boards show an attractive line of
pictorial printing.
The show, under the manage
ment of John Robinson, is now
enjoying its eighty-third year of
prosperity, and is one of the fore
most amusement attractions of
America, if not of the world.
It numbers among its arenic
favorites some of the most ex
pensive and best acts that money
can procure. The Capt. Thom
son troupe of American cavalry
men, in expert feats of daring
and original horsemanship; Dare
devil DeBurry, who sets at defi
ance all fixed laws of nature when
he dashes down a dizzy incline,
and with the speed of a hurricane
loops the gap on a bicycle; the
marvelously educated troupe of
seals, under the master hand of
Capt. Winston; Edna, acknowl
edged princess of the realm of
horsewomanship,the world’s only
lady somersault rider and twenty
equestrian associates; forty joy- ;
ous subjects of King Momus in a
efleeful sufficiency, and more than
a hundred other foreign and
American features in three rings
and an elevated stage, and intro
ducing as an added feature King
Solomon, his temple and the
Queen of Sheba, requiring a cast
of a thousand men, women, chil
dren and horses, 100 ballet girls,
reproducing tne dances of the day
of the king of a thousand wives.
The Robinson show has always
been famed for its menagerie,
and this season finds the zoolog
ical annex the most complete ever
carried by a tented show, com
prising costly' and rare animals |
c it. ..1.1_!
irom ever} section ui tne wuuc.
This splendid array of animal tal
ent will be seen in the big daily
street parade, pronounctd by all i
as the most gorgeous and elabor
ate pageant of modern times,
comprising more than a mile of
gold encased wagons, chariots,
and 500 of the finest of American j
horses. This is the only big show'
that is not in the circus trust,
and no advance in the prices will
be made.

use Red Cross Ball Blue. It
makes clothes clean and sw eet
as when new. All grocers. tf

“I am 65 years old, and have
been a great sufferer from
headache all my life. One of
Dr. Miles’ circulars was left
at ray door-, and what it con
tained about headache inter
ested me, so that I determined
to invest a dollar in their make

that headache. The first charge
brought it down, but I contin
ued to shoot until the thing
was shot so full of holes that
I believe it will never come to
life again. I consider it the
