Sat- urday, Dec. 1, and the show la now In winter qumters at Salisbury, N. C. The season opened at Salisbury, April 11, and during' the Summer and Fall thirteen States were visited. The show paid in tlrst visit to tbe New England Mats* two jc.n ago. and again this season, to even better. business than on the first appearance, ue tour of Long Island was a big success; :...U the South, as alwaya, gave the show capacity business, especially In .North Carolina, where for six weeks the big top was packed twice dally. The show Is occupying Its old quarters on the Rowan County fair grounds, and through the efforts of the Industrial Club of Salis- bury, the business men raised a sum sufficient to extend the city water service to the park. Insuring a constant supply. of pule water. The sbow was given a cordial welcome, and considers Salisbury an Ideal Winter home. Tbe season was entirely devoid of acci- dents nnd tbe n-cnther was good throughout the Summer and Tall. But two performance* were missed. Those who came into Salisbury and will remain for the Winter were: Mr. and Mrs. Chsrlis Sparks. Clifton and John Sparks, Rcrt Mayo and wife, nnd Fletcher Smith. Hurry Hall and wife, the former side show manager, has been re-engaged for next sesA son, nnd Is ipcnuing ibe Winter In Boston, Mass. James Cnskey, superintendent of can- vas, Is at home In Cincinnati, but will return about the ■ Hrat of the year. James Jacobs, "the get-un-and-gcl" boss hostler. Is again at quarters looking after the stock. Fritz ltrunner, bend nnlmat man, and Lewis Reed, In charge of the .elephants, will each take a brief vacation, and Steward Al. Orcutt is In New York renewing acquaintances along the Great White Way and making occasional visits (o New Rocliclle. Joseph Sherry, pro- duclng clown, Is spending the Winter at bis homo In Oakland, Cal. The show will go out next year consider- ably enlarged and with an enttte new canvas outfit, tbe same having been already ordered. Considering the fact'that it was presidential year and the show played a long list of re- peaters, the business was remarkable; In inct. nearly the banner season In the history of the show. .. ■ Press Agent Fletcher Smith was warmly welcomed by the Press Club, and The 8aUt- ham Daily Post had a big front page story on the arrival of the show. They also gave the Bhow a splendid write-up In their anni- versary and Industrial, edition,... General Agent T. W. Balllnger Is spending a few weeks at ali,hoine-, and.Basil Mcllenry, assistant manager, Is also enjoying the com- forts of his own fireside. Al.'Anderson, official announcer .and advertising managor, has de- cided not to put out his big five In one show for' the present, owing to his failure to secure his expected freaks from Indian Island, end Is resting quietly at Jamestown, N. Y. Michael Leopole, solo comctlst of the big show band decided also' to postpone his trip to WllUmantlc, Conn., and flnds plenty of fish- ing and hunting around Salisbury.

(Special to The Clipfbb.) Col Vernon C. Seaver has sold his Interest In the Great Northern Hippodrome, Chicago, to W. R. Bennett and a party of Omaha capitalists, who will continue the policy in- augurated at this popular place of amuse- ment. The consideration, according to In- formation given by Mr. Heaver to the Western representative of The Nbw Yobk Cuvna, is n trifle over 150,000. The deal bad been hanelng fire for two weeks, and was brought to a conclusion Saturday morning, pec. 7. Mr. Seaver left on the Twentieth Century " Saturday afternoon, for New xorK CALIFORNIA NOTES. BX JOHN U. CARST. VBNtcVCal., Dec. 0.—it Is doubtful If ever .a resort sprung' Into prominence so quickly among the. theatrical people-aa has thlc de- lightful spot of Southern California.. Possi- bly the fact that Nat C. Ooodwm Was among the first to recognise-Its benefita and built himself a palatial home here may have In- fluenced others, but whin one is Introduced to Venice and tbe Venetians It becomes evi- dent. that no ' Influence la necessary. It recommends Itself. It .may seem far (etched "to convince the unacquainted that this Is the one spot on the good Lord's . footstool where Winter Is unknown, and where even ralna are an unheard of. necessity. -Whlla those less fortunate tiro toasting themselves alongside of roaring fires the concessions along the beach here and on the pier are running full blast just as If there was never such a I rung as Winter heard of. itnthers are in the surf dally, children run barefooted along the beach, and on Dec. b the Al. O. Barnes Will Animal Show gave two performances under the same canvas as was used on the road all season. It was one of the show's regular stands, nnd no one thought a circus In Winter anything out of ihe ordinary. The Venice Band gives open air- concerts dally, nnd, lu fact, there are many more outdoor amusements than Indoor. As Tom Pryor, one of the leading amusement men ou the beach, puts it: "If the Lord ever did hnve a Garden of Eden 1 am sura that It was somewhere along the beach of Venice,'' and there are many who bellcva "Tom." Up In the Santa Monica .canyons tin Broncho Moving Picture Co. works all Win- ter, and only a couple of weeks ago Joe C Miller, of the 101 Kanch Wild West, arrived. He came here Immediately after the show closed In Hot Springs, and brought with bin two carloads of cowaoys, cowgirls and In- dians to augment the company already work- ing In the canyons. He. also brought twa stock cars, filled with Indian ponies. All of these came, from hts ranch at Bliss, Oklo. The company Is now the largest wintering la Southern California. Mr. Miller la so favora- bly Impressed with Venice and its surround- ings that he Is to build. himself a Winter home here and move here with hts family. Negotiations aro under way : for the winter.. ing of tbe Iiarnefl Animal Show here, and; ia fact, their wintering horo is almost assured. They wintered hero last Winter, as did the ■ 101 Ranch Heal Wild West Show,- and twe years ago It was tho Winter quarters for the - Sells-Kioto Circus. . , ;■'■ , Since ihe recent fire at Ocean Park there has been very little to attract tbe tourists there, and, in fact, the permanent residents ' have been compelled to seek amusements else- where. It was to Venice they came, where the theatres are-open all the year aroanaV and every outside amusement device running ■' Winter and Summer, and doing as much busi- ness In Winter as In Summer. Tbe Hoard of 'Trade of Ocean Park has decided to assist ' ■ the concession people who were burned- ouf i at the fire, and with this end .In view have arranged for a big street fair .which will b* ' held the second week. In December. . All of the' proceeds will be given to. those who were burned out. and many have voluntered- their services. The contingent from Los' Angeles will turn out In full force, and even now auo- ■ cess Is assured. Hsrold Boucbee, general agent of tbe AV G. Harms Wild Animal Show. Is seriously IB. ' In his home at the llollenbeck Hotel, In 'Los AngeleB. Mr. Boucbee was among tbo the- atrical colonists hero last Wtnter, and In- tended to be with them again this Winter. He has a very severe attack of congestion of the lungs end tho physicians are very nrackt' afraid that pneumonia will follow. The St. Marks Hotel, which 1 has always been the rendezvous for sbow folks, Is be- sieged for Winter reservations, Mine host Lee says that If tbo hotel could accommodate live hundred people Instead of two hundred, as at present, It would not be large onougk then. The auditorium Is doing big Sunday night business.

While In New York I will bo Jn conference with Colonel Cummins, and -we intend to mnko the Par East exhibition as effective as It can be made. The Wild West, as n form of popular amusement, grows stronger ana stronger every year, and this department of our organization will bo kept up lo standard. My experience, brief though It has been. In rejiivenallng the old Great Northern The- ntre—a dead one—Into the Great Northern Illnnodrnme^—a decidedly live one—has been wonderfully Interesting, and It may Interest you to know that I have a couple of other "(lend ones" under consideration to which I ninv doclde to apply special treatment. In Ihe menn time, I Intend to take the first va- cation I have had In a number of years, and enjoy It on Broadway. When I return to Chicago, 1 will find plenty to do, and the first of tho year 1 -will plunge Into tho de- tails of getting the Wild West and Far East Show ready for the 1918 tour." Mr. Heaver's success In bringing life and -dinger Into the Great Northern In jcarco tlve weeks. Is a remarkable achievement and the 1.10,000 accrued from tho sale of his hold- ings In this property will help to buy a lot of "trappings and things'* for the big Wild We«t. : It Is surmised that one of the "dead ones to whl.h Mr. Beaver refers, Is the Haynarkyt Tltontrc.on West Madison Street, formerly devoted to Kohl c Castle vaudeville, but which has been dark for some time, with the exception of occasional dramatic performances by Adl.'r's Jewish plavers.
