J., the evening of Aug. 10, owing to all of the company paying a lislt to the Leon Washburn's Circus, which played in I'assalc, N. J., Aug. 15 and 10. All scats were sold before 7.23 v. si. Before the u[K-ulng of the performance we were all in-, viicil by Mr. Wavhbum to Join him at a din- er, which we enjoyed very much. Among those present' were: L.

Notes ntott Rldgway, Pa.: Several of the leading people with the Van Amburg Show, In town Aug. 21, were with the Younger and James Wild West Show when Lee Marshall, (he cowboy rider, waa killed by a bucking I.rum-no at Dubois a few years ago. Marshall was burled the next day In Pine Grove Ceme- tery, hi Bldgway, and this morning several of I be showmen who were his comrades when be died, went up to visit bis grave. Those who were with Mr. Marshall when he met his death were: Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Kick, Tbos. Tucker, Win. Balrd, J. Key no and others. Mr. Kick picked Mr. Marshall up the day the horse fell on him, and Mr. Marshall died in M rs. .Ma rshall'a arms. The show people were delighted to And Mr. Marshall's grave so well taken care of, and requested us to teader tlielr thanks to the Bldgway people, who have been so kind to the memory of their dead comrade. After the afternoon performance the entire company marched to tbe cemetery, led by Prof. Wheeler's band. Memorial services were led by Al. Armer', followed by some very appro- priate music - by the band, closing with a prayer by Mr. Armer, and tbe decorating of the grave with flowers by the ladies, who placed several handsome floral decorations given by the members of the company. Notch miom Al. F. Wueelkr's New Model Shows.— Our trip through New York State has been very pleasing, the financial returns being far ahead of any previous season. We have had no serious accidents, very little sickness, and nearly all tbe people who opened with the show, April 20, are still on the roll of honor. The outfit is moving like clockwork, always In and up on time, and v-i- seldom leaves tbe lot later than 11.30, while the ring performance Is giving the best of satisfaction everywhere. We will stay out until October. Business In the annex of this show has been very good, and from tbe re- marks passed among, tbe townfolks, we take 1( that we are more than "making good."
