Thb onward march of progress, and- the substitution of machine labor for the labor of man, are the marvels of the twentieth century, In this advancement the circus has been in no way backward, and possesses im- Srovements to-day that formerly were un- eard of. One of the greatest labor savers Is the "stako driver," used with all the big shows. The machine Is driven by gasoline engines, saves the services of twenty-five men, and accomplishes the work In far less time. The difficulty that circus proprietors formerly encountered, when their working- men took leave of them, for the more profit- able harvest fields, Is In a great measure overcome by this mechanical device, which accomplishes the work with more expedition. The stake driver may rightfully take its place among the labor saving devices of the century. , Barney R. Parker left Chicago for Leaven- worth, Kan., Feb. 14. . _ , , Saiieo —Was de lions in do cen wlf Daniel, circus lions? Kastds —Naw, dey sho' was not circus lions. Sambo —How come you know?

Some men knock loud only to be let In: the bustle they make is animated by their private interests.—Lord Halifax. Abthds Davis says: "Some shows are so big (?) It takes half the season for the ghost to get around." ... 'If too had been hero last weekwltn your show, you would have done better.' "Contracting agents contract a hotel but don't stop there. There's a reason." Harry R. Overton Is some booster, uet this, written from Augusta. Ga., Feb. 2, 13: "Dear Joo Hepp—Everybody Is reading your page, and It Is the most Interesting matter that we've had In many months. Tls a boost to all showmen."
