The shows were located on Lake Street from Blaisdell Avenue and Fourth Avenue, taking In sis city blocks. Perfect weather ushered tn the week a fee- , tlvals, and the formal opening on Monday night was one of the most remarkable demon- stations ever witnessed Id the Northwest. Minneapolis has long been considered as one of the be.it show stands In the country, hut sccordlng to old-timers the welcome sc- corded the Con T. Kennedy carnival organlia- Uon broke arl previous records. Tnt writer arrived here Wednesday morn- ing May 28, and was Immediately Impressed by the general Interest evinced In tho carni- val. It being the topic -tor conversation kn the foyers of the downtown hotels and through- out the business district Arriving at Lake Street It waa apparent that no pains or ex- pense bad been spared, by Manager Kennedy and bis associates, and the West Side Com- mercial Club, In making ready for this car- nival week In MInncnnoHs, which will go down In the annals of local show history as a record-breaker. While of course It la conceded that the Con T. Kennedy Shows have a nonderful drawing power, It msut be said la Justice to the West SUe Comerclal Club that perhaps no carnival organization ever found more real active co-operation than that which waa extended to the Kennedy management In Minneapolis. The advance publicity work In the news- of rare merit, created and operated by Harry Glllman, la one of the attractions on t..e Kennedy Midway. Hindoo wonder workc ,t present a repertoire of Bast Indian Illu- sions, featuring the levltatlon of Prtai't'sa Carnac and the transformation of lion, laity and boy. For the latter number a Nubian Hon Is utilised,' and the perforrnnnce Is a mystifying nnd startling one.

Nick Chefsloi, the original Dlavolo. with the death trap loop Is the big free attraction with the Coa T. Kennedy Bhowa Hla per- formance Is one of the most sensational ever attempted. Tuesday night, Chelate waa severely injured as the result of the trap refusing to work, and he was put out of commission for the rest of the week. He expects to be able to resume at Winnipeg, where the ahows open Monday, June 2.

Ai a matter of record, the Con T. Kennedy Shows were more thoroughly advertised on the billboards than any similar attraction which has ever played Minneapolis, accord- ing to nniy Breslauer, the city billposter, and the showing in the reading 'olumni of the Minneapolis newspapers has been really remarkable. Con T. Kennedy Is generally recognised aa one of the most aatute purveyors of car- nival entertainment He has had many years of practical experience in thla branch of the amusement business. His line-up of attractions this season is an admirable one. To cover all of the Kennedy Bbows in detail would require columns ot space. The Anglo-Saxon Trained Wild Beast Exhibition, presented under the personal management of John T. Bachman. la a splen- did attraction. It embraces almost every known specie of the jungle bred animal, aa well aa educated domestic beasts. The fea- ture number on the lengthy program la a urwler the direction of A. U.'BaMck.
