Give me the man. who can always be found, ttfcefelJer who's not bought and sold; Give me tne man who stands up to the rack, The feller whose spirit ne'er bends. Give me the man who Is there with the goods. The feller who stands by his friends. He may not be cultured or dandy In dress, HisTjaroln' may be purty slim; But If be has got the red blood hi his vefeoa You can hank your last dollar on him. GIto me no fair weather, rollicking friends, The fellers -who flatter and fawn. Give mo no "Jolly good fellowship" guys Who fly when the bank roll Is gone. Gtvo me fl»e man who has hit ell the tamps. The feller who's traveled with trnth; Who knows wuurt true pain and true anguish can mean ' And Is not discouraged, forsooth.

Jim Haihaway wei.t to Columbus, O., last week, and purchased a swell combination Pullman sleeper for his 'Hagenbeck-Wallaca spectacular picture show, under canvas, which it to open about May 1. H. J.

CARMAL ACTIVITIES IN N. Y. George Donovan has returned from Porto Rico and is in New York City, following a successful engagement at the Insular Pair, Ran Juan. He writes that aW the boys made plenty of money in Porto Itlco. There are quite a number of carnival people in New , Yprk at the present time, and from the out- look there will be a lot of carnival companies la New England this year. The Greater New England Shows, managed by Harry Six, have some maiden territory. Benny Krause will also play New York States and New England. Victor Leavltt Just dropped In from Canada.

B. C. Talbott, general agent of the Kennedy Shows, was in Chicago and made bis headquarters at the Wellington last week. In an Interview with tho writer he expressed tho opinion that the season of 1013 would-be a good one for all well regulated carnival aggregations. Con T. Kennedys reputation as-a carnival manager Is established. He has always been foremost In putting forth measures toward the uplift of the business and In assembling meritorious attractions and entertainment for hit patrons. The Con T. Kennedy Shows this season will be practically new throughout _ Dumno a recent call at the Western Bureau of Thb New Yobk Cliffib, In Chi- cago, Harry 8. Noyet, general agent of the Great Patterson .Shows, which are to open at I'aola, Kan., April 28, said: "The season of 1018 certainly looks good to me. We nave framed up a treat show, and our bookings are pretty well concluded for the season. It Is probable that I will make my headquarters in Chicago more or lest of the time this Summer. The Great Patterson Shows have gained a wonderful reputation In the past, and it will be our endeavor to uphold the nigh standard of merit, established by our organisation. The forthcoming engagement of one week la Kansas City, following the Paola opening, ought to prove a prosperous one, for it will be under the auspices of Kan- sas City Retail Merchants' Association, and there will be three special nights during our week there." Herbert A. Kline divided his time be- tween Chicago and Milwaukee, last week, in making ready for the big Indoor carnival which is being held, this week, under hit direction, at the Auditorium, in the Cream City. Fostered by the representative Ger- mans of Milwaukee, the Herbert A. Kline Indoor carnival enterprise should prove emi- nently successful. In referring to the regu- lar 1918 tour, Mt. Kline said, during a call at the Western Bureau of The Clippeb : "I have no hesitancy in stating my belief that the season of 1013 will prove the best In the history of my shows. I have a wonderful line of attractions and we will play a num- ber of tho largest State fairs. The carnival form of entertainment Is steadily forging ahead and becoming a recognized factor In the amusement of the people. I firmly be- lieve that every year will find decided ad- vancements made in our line of endeavor. For my part, I am constantly on the lookout for anerltoiiouB attractions and features, and I am frank to say that I am rather proud of our enimSle this year." Extraordinary interest Is being evinced in the forthcoming engagement of the Ring- ling Bros. World's Greatest Shows, at tho Coliseum, Chicago. A world of paper is being posted, heralding this event Tin people of St. Louis will certainly have plenty of tent show entertainment af- forded them this Spring. Frank A. Robbtns' ■ Circus and the 101 Ranch Wild West will play there under canvas. It is expected that the Hagenbeck-Wallace engagement, at the Coliseum, In St. Louis, will prove a great success. From all reports It Is spparent that a' great show has been prepared for the sea- son soon to open. ' • . _. Withik a *ew days the attention of the amusement world will be directed to Phila- delphia where the Two Bills Show will play an Indoor engagement The early openings this aeason will prove a boon to tent show performers and employees. . _ . It would appear that Fred Buchanan has assembled a great performance for the Yan- kee Robinson Shows. Here Is the line-up of the rider*: Albert Davenport, Fred Costelly, Bessie Coatetlo, Marie Davenport Winnie Sweeney and Ralph Howser. The equestrian procmim Includes three tody principals, three gent principals, two (two-horse carrying acts, and three jockey sets. The big show program will also Include the Royal Toklo Japs— twelve In number; Capt. Treat's tea lions, Ross Ashcraft's ten high-school horses. Bucha- nan writes me that the Yankee Robinson parade this season will be one of the best In the show business. In Ms modest, unassum- ing way but armed with years of practical experience In the clrcuH business, and belug a shrewd business man, Fred Buchanan has made the Yankee Robinson Shows a real Cower In the circus worjd. He looks for a Ig season, and here's hoping he will have It. My I'RlENn, Harry E. Crandell. general agent of tho Eschman European Shows, writes ii)c that buslnest with nls organiza- tion continues good all along the line, and states the belief that tho Each/man Shows have had as few losing stands as any or- ganisation which has played the South this season. Thb Fred Elzor Shows, which have been ploying Florida this Winter, traveling by wagon, has gone on rails for a .few weeks to give the stock a chance to rest up. Tho transfer to the curs, which number three, wsoi made at Sampson, Ala., on March 6. Tho stock vms shipped to KnoxvHIe, Tenn., at which point the show will go back on wagons In about four weeks, C A. Kklley, manager of the Clifton* Kelley Shows, writing from Athens, Ala., March 10, to this department, says: "Dick Wyatt, C. Brown and Louis Selzer, of the St. Louis Amusement Co.. and Lewis Itergcr, agent of the Southern Shows, were visitors at Tuscumbla. A new black top for* the electric show arrived at this point, and W. H. Scott and wife, George Turner and wife and Frank Starns joined the Cllfton-Kelley Shows. Mrs. George Turner has taken charge of S. Subarl's Country Store. Harry Shields, the new general agent, Is making a splendid thowlng.' r The fourth annual tour of the Young Buffalo Wild West, Col. Cummins Far East and Vernon C. Seavcr't Hippodrome, will open at Peoria, 111., Wednesday, April 23, and will embrace roost of the principal cities Bast of Denver. This big aggregation wll! be under the personal direction of Vernon C. Seavcr. Tho general agent, F. C. Cooper, is shaping up a splendid route, end has evolved a number of exceedingly clever advertising stunts which will be utilized by the advance In heralding this attraction. Kilbr's Animal Circus, under the direction of C. F. Eller, Chicago, la now booking fair and park time. . Tub United Fairs Booking Association, Of Chicago, will feature Robinson's live cle- Shants, Yamato Jans, Five Ferris WScel Iris, Six Flying Herberts. Fink's comedy mules. Dare Devil Hurley, in tho auto cloud leap; Madam Marantcttc society horecs, along with a hundred other attractions for fain and parks, this season. ... Annum. Davis received a letter; Monday, 24, from Mrs. Davis, who Is spending a few weeks with Mrs, Jerry Mugavln, taking Uie waters, at Billy Maurice's establishment, stating that Hot Springs was billed to a finish with 101 Ranch Wild West paper, an- nouncing the opening of the season there, P A. H.' Babklbt, general agent of the Rice Bros. Colossal Shows, was In Chicago, last week, making railroad contracts. J. Schuyler Clark arrived in Chicago Monday night, March 24, on his way from New York City to Los Angeles, Cal.. and during a call at the Western Bureau of Thb New Yobk euros, Wednesday morning, said: "I attended the opening of the Barnnm ft Bailey Shows at Madison Square Garden. New York, and must say that it is one of the greatest circus performances I have ever wit' nested. The spectacle 'Cleopatra' is put on In an elaborate manner. The first night au- dience taxed the capacity of the Garden. Tho Congrett of Freaks in the annex com- pared favorably with similar exhibitions given by the same show years ago when the freaks wctc featured." - On his way to the far West "Sky" wHT-sto-n; off at St Louis, Kansas City. Denver, and may possibly at- tend the opening of t#e 0aUfrtfUKO Shows at Albuquerque, N. If. He was present at the social session of the 8. L. A., held at tie Saratoga' Hotel, Chicago, Wednesday night, March 20, . RUMESOTA LAWMAKERS BUSY. According to the' Affoaeapoltt Journal, in its issue ot Sunday, March 23, the circus may lose half its charm If expurgated advertis- ing Is compelled by a new Minnesota law, and tho death knell of gaudy pictures and small boy's Joy Is feared. Shot In tho orthographic vitals by tho un- feeling Minneapolis Advertising Forum, and subbed with tho dagger of verbal exactitude by the unsentimental Minnesota Legislature, the circus industry is wounded sore. The fure advertising law Is on. When next an ncomparablc Immensity of Inconceivable In- congruities and Appealing Aggregation of Aboriginal Attractions comes Into Minneapolis and pitches tents and brings along a painter heifer from the South St Paul stockyards, the whole establishment will be liable to go to jail if it advertises said heifer as "Tho Sacred Cow from India."' And when Mike McGlynn from Albert Lea, who has practiced up until he can hang from a trapeze by hie teeth, goes on tho bills as "Scnor Emanuel Manoa y Marco del Sponduta, from the Royal Circus of Lisbon, Portugal," be will be taking a chance, and it will be a double chance If Mike it getting |20 a t cek and the billboards make it S&OO. Mast Give Real Kama. Alas for "Senorita Aurealla Do Brabaron, of the Imperial Hippodrome, Madrid," who throws cannon balls about the ring, Mamie Smith, who got strong by cooking In a Minne- sota lumber camp, will nave to give her real name. "Any statement of fact which Is un- true, deceptive or misleading shall consti- tute a misdemeanor." reads the Minnesota pare advertising bUl. If the words mean what they say people who pay to see "The Daring Dive of Daredevil Dick from a Dluy Height Into Six Inches of Water" and see instead Bill Simmons, In green tights, fall off a platform ten feet Into a tank, will bare a legal grievance. Alas for tho good old days when legisla- tures concerned themselves with the consti- tution of the State and other like things, and When the circus poster thrived untrammeled and unhandlcapped. What will the small boy of a coming decade know of real joy, and Where will bo the thrill when tho man comes with the glaring paper and the pots of paste and tho brushes, and the word goes around, and the gang comet running and .the words go up: •Mm. John Smith will ride around the ring on a white hone" or "Henry Johnson will swing on a trapeze, and when another trapeze twinge over within two feet of him will let go one and grab the other." Thrills Gone. Where is the thrill In such announcement 1 How can a small boy get fifty cents from hie father, to see that, as he could when the bills told of "The Daring Bareback Datb of Mile. Flfl Through Hoops of Fire. Courting Death," or "The Jump for Life—the Heart-Stooping Leap from a Swinging Trapeze in Mid-Air.' 1 The joy Is out of life. The expurgated, attested, legally Indorsed circus of the future looms ahead Gloom it over all. "The Last Survivor of the Aztec Race, Found In the Fastnesses of the Moun- tains of Guadalajara." will be no more, and In his place will be "Hungry John," who can make an easy living in the elde show because he hat a sloping forehead and finds It easier than working as a section hand on the Boo Line. LILLE WILL LOAN BUFFAIO. In writing from Denver, under date of March 21. U F. NlcodemuB Imparts the In- formation that Motor Gordon w. Llllle hat offered the loan of 200 head of buffalo (prob- ably the largest herd In America) for tho "Last Grand Council of the Indiana" to be held in Denver for llvo months during 1016. This will afford Gen W. P. Cody and hit coterie of Indians, cowboys and ranchmen a splendid opportunity to put on a real buf- falo hunt. According to Mr. Nloodcmus, who Is a member of tho Board of Oovernors of the Puhllcltv League of Colorado, the "Last Grand Council of the Tribes of the North American Indians" will mark an event of his- torical and ethnological Interest of the most unusual value. 'in one great picture pageant all glories of tho patt will he unrolled for tho instruction and edification of the thousands to whom the Indian Is a sourco of wonderment and ro- mance. It will ibo a pageant such as the world baa never known before, and will never know again: a pictorial presentation of a dying race staged by thousands of the last turvlvors of the race. To perpetuate this event which will become historical, and to add a lasting character to It, It It proposed to establish a museum which will secure and keep Intact for the generations of the future a complete and carefully selected collection of Indian relics, evidences of a vanished race, Its handiwork, ltt customs, Ks observances and religious traditions.

Neb., stop- ping en route at St. Louis. During the call at the Western Bureau of Tn« M Yobs' Ci.iriBu, Mr. Buckloy stated tbat when the tornado struck Omaha It pasted within two blocks of his apartment. The building ho was In rocked like a toy house, but fortu- nately no one was hurt. The Omaha men worked bard all Sunday night and all day Monday, and Mr. Buckley declares that be has never teen anything like It, although ho was In Galveston after tbe flood, and has been through several earthquakes in Cali- fornia, including the one In Ban Francisco. Mr. Duncan, advertising manager of The Omaha Bee, and for several seasons with circuses, .was Instantly killed, and bis wife Is In the hospital. C. K.

The showmen helped out In every way at Omaha, and tho Auditorium, under manager Glllman's di- rection, was turned Into a kitchen, where several hundred were fed. John Evans, manager of the Coliseum, at Dcs Moines, la., headed a bunch of good fel- lows, Elks, Moose, etc., and went to Omaha with several physicians. Messrs. Evans and Buckley are patting on tbe "Dee Moines Women's Household Show" In tho Coliseum, and It was quite a hard* ablp for both of them to be away at the same time. Dick Collins, ono of Mr. Back- ley's first Jlentenantsj z. T. Howell and Gt Stuart Hill, of the K. & E. forces, handled the ebow wblle Mr. Buckley and Mr. Evans were away. Mr. Buckley left Chicago for Des Moines Friday night, and after tbe close of the Household Show will return to Chicago and then arrange bookings for Ferrule's Band for tbe season. During his call at the Western Bureau of Tub New Yobk Clipped Mr. Buckley learned •f Tbe Showmen's League of America help- ing the distressed showmen at Peru and at other points affected by tbe flood, and Imme- diately died his application for membership in the League, and left a substantial con- tribution for the League fund.
