The New York Clipper (April 1913)

J6 THE NEW YORK OMPPER. April 12 CIRCUS NEWS TWO BULS^SHOW OPENS. iBuffaloBiD'sWiidWestandPawnceBiD's : Far East Open with New Entertain- ment in Philadelphia. The Combined Buffalo Bill mid Went and the Pawnee Bill Far East Show had a most auspicious opening In Convention Hall, Phil- adelphia, on tho evening of April 3. This was the first opportunity that Phlladclphlans lave ever had of witnessing a show of this kind under an enclosure, and this novelty in ; itself will be a blft factor in drawing the crowds, os the Two Hills are the biggest kind of drawing cards with Quaker City audiences. The big auditorium Is located at Broad Street and Allegheny Avenue and, although quite a distance from the central section of the city, has ample transportation facilities from all points, The auditorium, which Is owned by the city, is an immense structure covering an area of f>00 by 800 feet, and has a seating capacity of 20,000. The reconstruction to lit It for the Buffalo Bill Show is well nigh perfect. There is a large, wide balcony surround- ing the arena on three sides, which provide the best seats', while on the ground floor are the cheaper priced seats. Where the stage formerly was located is eroded) a fine scenic representation offcha mountain-bound plains of the American; west ss well as an oasis la the desert. The show opened 'with a grand procestion of Orientals recruited from every section of the far East, after which Buffalo Bill, in a •mart trap, drawn by a pair of cream col- ored horses, circled the arena amidst tu- multuous applause. He then delivered an addreaa In a voice that was distinctly heard in every part of tho vast auditorium. In his remarks Colonel Cody declared that when he retired two years ago he meant what he said ; that ho was out of the saddle as a performer for good; that he had ful- filled a purpose In bringing to the Eastern mind a true appreciation of the West, making the Indian a man respected instead of a man despised; that above all, he had accomplished a public good In furnishing a generous quality of honest amusement. Pauineo Bill was then Introduced, mounted en a magnificent blade charger, and also made a neat address to big applause. Following this came Ameen Abou JIant- ned's Troupe of Bvdouln Arabs, in a really great display of pyramiding and whirlwind tumbling, Whir/h scored n big success; The next number Ja-troduced was Boris Friakin's ll'ftfrlirfmj Ruulan Dancert, dis- playing to a remarkable degree tho wonder- ful Muscovite interpretation of the. "llijht fantastic." Thl» act was received with rounds of applause. Then came What everybody;conceded to be one of the beat elephant acta ever seen, In- troducing Max Orii&cr, Hits Ornber, the Mamcte elephant, Minnie; tho stallion, "/.«- cclsior,-" the pony, "Peaoock," and the dog, all of whom, produce an act that Is both startling as well as pleasing. . This concluded the first episode, which was followed by the V. 8. Artillery Drill, showing tho old muzzle-loading methods which was followed by an International Mili- tary Tournament end Musical Ride. Intro- ducing the cavalrr. equipment and draftings of various countries in concerted maneuvres, with all their national emblems, saluting the White Flag of Peace. This brought out the complete mounted equipment of the show, and waa a colorful picture and greatly ad- mired. Tho next episode showed The Boy Scouts In a unique drill, which was followed by a series of races In which the particular fea- ture w*« a pair of racing buffalo, driven by Bote Vrtntworth-Oarr, _ . Next in order was the Stage Coach and Pony Express, followed by The Pioneer Days. with the attack on the emigrant train and the rescue by the cowboys. Other episodes showed cowboy frolics and a United States Cavalry drill, after which came the most sen- sational feature of the show. ... An Auto Polo Contest, In which a life- risking Bport Is given a realistic try-out. There are two performers, not counting the drivers of the machines, and the reckless manner In which the two machines were driven headlong from opposite directions at the ball, turning at a hand's breath to escape disaster, with the mufflers -wide open and the eparks shooting because of the quick plung- ing and reversing, served to bring the audi- ence to Its very toes, cheering the players on. The show is brought to a close with a grand review, consisting of the entire equip ment, showing a perfect maze of horsemen and equestriennes in Intricate evolutions^ jirodilclng a perfect finale. A fine feature of the show is the Cowboy Band, under tho leadership of Professor 'William Sweeney. ' Major John- it. Burke Is still a fixture with tbo show, and had a welcome hand for all of She newspaper men. The show will remain until April 10, and then on to tho metropolis for a three weeks' stay. W. 3.

Everything Is In -readiness (or the season of 1018 with the Yankee Robinson Three King Circus and Texas Mill's Wild West The Messrs. Buchanan aro not in the habit of saying much, but would rather let othera talk about what they have done. The writer (Harvey Hale) joined the Yan- kee Uoblnson Shows in the season of 1011, and signed a life contract with them, coming from the Barnum A Bailey Shows, where he held a fifteen year contract with the late James A. Bailey, and will state if the Yankee Robinson Shows. Improve. In , the next five years like they have In the past three sea- sons, they will play second fiddle to no circus on earth. • : This show played thirty-six stands la the State of Texas, season of 1012, and paid the State of Texas 2400 per day license, a total of $14,400 for tho thirty-six standB. and gave the people'a three ring circus, did not cut out any acta to beat the license, and they made good. Fred Buchanan must be given credit for taking a show into Texas ana the Southern States by the name of Yankee. The war Is over, but there is still a feeling against the Yankee Just the same. i The Buchanans have spared no expense this Winter la fitting up their shows for 1918. I Mid a visit to the Winter quarters March 80. All the cross-road cages have been discarded and large, beautiful dens put In ttieir place. The No. 1 band wagon is a gem, Jacob Posey, who haa driven a forty horse band wagon in his day, is super- intendent of stock, and told me when Prof. Theo Stout and his twenty-eight picked solo musicians climb Into toe No. 1 band wagon they will ride behind twenty-four beautiful black dorses. The writer has taken part In circus pa- rades since 1888 up to the present day, and claims when the parade comes down the street season 1013 the natives will ait up and take notice. To give any one person credit for the fine painting and decorating would not be fair. Buck Smith and Rosa Ashcrof t, general superintendent, with twenty first class assistant?, did the work. Fred Bu- chanan has surrounded himself with first class showmen, and the heada of each - de- partment are men that know their burliness. Charles Kelley, superintendent of canvas, and forty assistants have everything ready for the road to-day. Joe Kelley and ten as- sistants will have charge of the eight sleep- ing cars. Orval Spears, superintendent of lights; Renaldo Carrol, superintendent of properties; Earl Senate, superintendent of commissary department, and John Qulggley, trainmaster, have everything ready for the season of 1013. From the list of acts en- gaged for 1013 the circus performance, under the direction of Charles Sweney, and the Wild West, under the direction of Joe Po- land, Texas Bill will be up-to-date in every respect.
