16 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER. Februaby l OBSERVATIONS BY JOE HEPP. (Continue d from page IS.) That tbo Barnuoi A Bailey Circus fea- tured a real white elephant one season and that Adam Forepaugh, not to be outdone, also featured a made to order "white" ele- phant. After the public had seen It be an- nounced "just the same as Barnum's. That the G. 0. Grady Circus was the first to feature balloon ascensions. That Howe's London Circus was the first European circus to visit the United States, and after a few years in this country was -consolidated with the. Cooper tk Bailey* Shows. We still have a Howe's Great London Show, however,, and Jerry Mugavln'rene It. That Booth & Co., the show printers In New York City, at one time furnished all paper used by circuses In this country. It is different now. . 'That the Adam Forepaugh and ("Poughcy") John O'BrlentClrcus was conducted under th« title of Dan Bice in 1888, Dan Bice doing the clowning. ■ That Ada in Forepaugh first came out under his own name with his circus In 1800. That the John Robinson Circus has not exhibited In the State of Texas since 1800. M. S. B. TIPPETT ON THE 00. John D. Tlupctt, who for eighteen years was Identified with the Buffalo Bill and Cells Bros.' Shows, before taking up exposi- tion enterprises in this country and abroad, has struck a rapid stride In the moving pic- ture game. lie Is making "Union Features" • power In the "special" film field. He has established offices In Minneapolis, Milwaukee, lies Moines, Denver, St. Louis, Detroit, Mon- treal and Chicago. The latter is located at 112 N. La Salic Btreet. John was a. C. B. C.

Shows, Watertown, Wis., •re enlarging tbclr big top for the coming season, from a 70 foot with three 30s to an 80 with four 40s, and the organization throughout will he materially strengthened. The i], S. people are making the tops. ■ Mil. AND MRS. "PATT" ON BROADWAY. Mr. and Mrs. James Patterson spent a few hours In Chicago last week on their way Irtm Paola to New York City, where they are seeing the sights, doing a little "window wishing, and Incidentally picking up some brie-a-hiac and furnishings for a new home they are to build at Patterson's Point, near l'aoln, this Summer. A A ropuLAit rendezvous for old timers whon In Chicago is Ed. Droit us' Colonial Annex, on Randolph Street. Every afternoon finds a number of the old guard talking things over. Drelfus 1b the proud possessor of a rare collection of photographs of circus celebrities and old time theatrical programs. TRYON STARTS SANITARIUM. Dr. F. E. Tryon, for many years with the Golliuar Bros.' Circus, has established a sanl- tiirluin at Windsor, Wis., Where he went Inst Fail, following the close of the show. Dr. Tiyun is a shining example of what a firm determination to succeed will accomplish. Not being blessed with sufficient capital to take a college course In medicine, he traveled with a circus and studied at odd hours, finally reaching his goal The genial doctor says he iins not retired permanently from the show business, and may again be with the white tops. Tub new Saratoga, in Chicago, Is fast be- coming a Mecca for representative circus and carnival folk. Landlord Clyde is a past mas- ter as a host, and breezes a hearty welcome to the fraternity. Mnny marked improve- ments arc In evidence at the Saratoga. RINGLINOS' BIG SPECTACLE. According to Dave W. Watt, who recently visited Ai Rlngllng at Iinraboo, Wis., "Joan of Arc" will be the spectacle with the Rlng- llng Bros.' World's Greatest Shows, which will open tho season at the Coliseum, in Chi- cago, early in April, The 1013 spectacular freduction will bo on a much grander scale ban heretofore. Tbo ennemble will Include . some eight hundred people, and there will be three shifts of scenery during the action of the play. Several of the finest scenic artists to the country are sow at Bnraboo, and a German professor is working on the music score. New wardrobe will be In evidence I throughout, and altogether "Joan of Arc" ! will be a big show In itself. Following the Coliseum engagement la Chicago tho Rlngllng Bros.' Circus, according to Mr, Watt, will go Lost, nnd (he Itnrnnm ft Itnllev Show, leaving Madison Square Gar- den, will come West. Nenrly ninety cars will be required for tho Rlngllng BroB,' equipment this year, the train being divided Into four sections, nnd there will be In the neighborhood of 1,400 in- dividuals with the show. « I PERU (IND.) RUMBLINGS. •> Peru Is all Agog over the report that the Birnum A Bailey Show will exhibit there ay 21. The fact that Jake Newman stopped off there lately, lends color to the report. "Big Wiltey," Oldknow, the veteran boss ranvnsman, Is enjoying the Winter at bis hotel, Victoria. Harry Fink, manager of the 101 Ranch Wild West privilege car, Is spend- ing the Winter in rem. Uncle Ben Wallace bought another plcco of farm property the other day, nnd now is the possessor of 3,000 teres of land in Peru County. * John Rinolino passed through Chicago Friday, Jan. 24, on his way from White Sulphur Springs, Mont, to New York City, where he will probably make his headquar- ters at his residence, 030 Fifth Avenue, until the opening of tho Barnum & Bailey engage- ment at Madison Square Garden. chaw.es H'joo, who has recently returned from a three years' tour In India, Australia and tbo Orient, routing and booking time tor the "Hugo Bros.' Around-the-World Enter- prises," states that he found Tun Old Re- liaiii.g on sale at every point he visited, and that It was a source of much satisfaction to be kept in close touch with home affairs through thin medium. Steve A. Woods arrived In Chicago Jan. 25 from Texas, and when last seen was try- ing to make his listeners believe that lie never was n general agent. Mn. McCov, who has been managing "A Romance of the Under.rorld," which recently closed, will be 'r charge of the No. 2 ticket wagon with 101 Ranch Wild West this com- ing soason. AL. GILLIGHAM PROSPERS. A very Interesting letter from our esteemed friend, Salvall, informs me that Al. Gllllg- linm's vaudeville house, the Orphcum.ln Grand Rapids, Mich., is playing to tremendous busi- ness. "Al." always was a lucky fellow, or rather it might be more appropriate to say that he Is a good business man. His various ventures In theatrical nnd moving picture en- trrprlses throughout the State of Michigan are all successful. No use talking, the "lot" When in need of New Material, try BARRY GRAY OF PHILA.

BARRY DRAY, 1603 Fairmont Ave, Phila., Pa. •*'.! H:i:i' experience properly applied In other lines of endeavor brings results as a rule. « BIXBY GOES *WITH "101." An Interesting rumor finds Its way from the East that Charles Blxby, for ji number of years superintendent of properties with the Barnum A Bailey Greatest fjbows on Earth, has been engaged by the 101 Ranch Wild West, to assume the position formerly held by Fred Beckmnn, who Is bow associated with Edward Arlington, in the projection of a new Wild WeBt enterprise. RAY FOUND A SHOWMEN'S CLUB The writer has .been appioached, from time to time, by some of the big men of tbe tented show world, with tho suggestion that" the ball bo started rolling toward the forma- tion of a cluli with which representative fac- tors in the circus, carnival and Wild West field of amusement endeavor carl affiliate and look upon It as their home. It has been BUggepted that this club be.located In Chi- cago. You men of the outdoor amusement Arid, have you ever stopped to realize that your branch of tbe business Is the only one with- out an organization, without a club? The theatrical press agents and managers have their Friars' Club, tan actor, the Lambs' Club; the vaudevllllanB, the Comedy and White Rats' clubs; the magician affiliates himself with the Magic Club, and the moving picture fraternity with the Screen Club. Why not a Showmen's Club (by whatever name It may be known) for the vast follow- ing identified with tented entertainment? It really seems to me that the men of tbe "lot" should form an organization, one that would afford them an opportunity of getting closer together, And so conducted that It would be esteemed an honor to be counted one of Its members. Once the organization Is formed, steps could he taken to raise funds, by subscrip- tion, life memberships, initiation fees, dues and benefits towards the leasing or the building of a clubhouse. I venture to say that scarcely a single tented organization would hesitate to set aside a portion, at least, of one day's receipts towards this fund, and I am positive that arrangements can be effected for the giving of a monster benefit, ir. Chicago, for that purpose. This benefit might be In the nature of a "Carnival of all Nations," on the lot, a combination circus, Wild West and carnival attractions in one big assembly. The benefits of a permanent clubhouse in Chicago are obvious. It could be made a Winter home, In the true sense of the word, for many returning from their Summer sea- son's work. In proper hands its lnfluenco would be towards the uplift of the profession to which It is devoted. It could be made so that Its Insignia worn upon tbe lspel of a member's coat would be looked upon as a lindge of honor, the membership, of course. being limited to representative showmen of proper character. Chicago is the radiating centre, of the tent show business of America, nnd I will not be at nil surprised If this movement goes forward with a decided im- petus. The officials nnd board of directors of the Showmen's Club should be made up of men of the highest .standing, and I appre- hend there would be no difficulty In getting the "big" men to serve. Given a club wllh c gymnasium, swimming pool, pool and billiard rooms, a buffet, read- ing and writing rooms, suites and bedrooms, nnd a kitchenette tor light lunch Borvlco, the tout showronn who comes to Chicago will feel that he is n regular member In the large world of cltthdom. 1 will be pleased to get your views In this matter. .Wabben A. Patbick, 505 Ashland Block, Chicago. IlKitnr.nr A. Kzrvn, who made Chicago his headquarters during week of Jan. 20, enter- tained a party of friends with an informal dinner at the Wellington, Jon. 24. Among those present were Prank L.

Inadvertently, !n our last Issue, I men- tioned Frank Fink ns having the privilege car with the 101 Knnch Wild West It should have been Harry Fink. AVm. HiBTMAN (Muldoon), well known circus cook, for the past four seasons with the 101 Ranch Wild West, will have charge of the kitchen with the Arllngton-Beckmnn Show. Bon Martin, on attache of the Greater Parker Shows last season, is connected with the Hayniarkct Theatre, Chicago. KLINE LANDS DALLAS. The amusement committee of the Dallas State fair were unanimous In awarding the contract for Midway attractions to the Her- bert A. Kline Shows. This makes Mr. Kline's fifth consecutive season at tho Lone Star State's exposition. J. W.
