Hall Shows: At Wichita, Kan., Aae V, We were greeted by large crowds ot people, and the tidcsliow snd the big show recelred liberal patronage. When the parade left the groands at 10:90, the streets were well crowded, and they kept com- ing from all directions by cTCfT available means nntu late la the attcraooo. At Bmporia we did a big boslness, and the same may be said of Ottawa, the 2Tth. where we showed to good audiences at both the mitinff and ere- nlng perlormances. At Topeka the train was aiet by Mr. WUllam SeUs, who spent most of the day aroand the groood and talked very en- thnsisstlcly of his extenslTe oil Interests, re- cently mentioned In The Billboard. At Leaven- worth, the 23th, Phn. EHlsworth with his np-to dste sideshow bad a banner day, wlxile the big ahow also did good business. In tiie afternoon there were but tew vacant seats after the opening, and In tbe evening seating accomoda- tions In tbe big top were taxed to capacity. The soldiers from Ft. Lieavenworth turned out en masse, two companys of cavalry leading the parade, which was witnessed by thoossnds of people, who simply packed the principal streets where tbe parade was to pass. Beie we used the reservation groands tor show porposcs, and in the morning oor ti^k were Invited to the tort to witness a shsm battle, t^t pleased every one, and wsg most realistic and warlike.
