The Billboard 1902-06-28: Vol 14 Iss 26 (1902-06-28)

THE BILLBOARD any. Who have been receiving very tat rue helices In the Western papers, are \ enjoying a heeded rest al Spokane, Wasi. alter Which they will returo bast. foe colupany carries its oWn special paper nd seelus lo please everywhere. «. WK. Czarliusky, protmocer und manager f the carnival at Parsons, Mhan., writes hat mm spate of the great opposition en unutered, the carnival Was a@ success, 4,ooo people patronizing the attractions. He further states that south McAlester proved the banner carnival of the circuit, nd everybody made money. Linton, ind., with a poulation of over 7.00, does not allow colored people lo stop in the town, But when the indiana Carnval Company played there last week they had with them b. G, Pratt's Georgia Min strels. There was some little grumbiimg ‘mong the hot heads, but that soon passed, nd When the show opened its doors they were given a turnaway house. ‘They pieased every one, and piayed to capacity houses the entire week. the following people have been engaged for the Long branch Business Men’s dcireet bair: Lhe Belmont Sisters, balloonists and oscar Kuneidier and His Ladies’ Military and. Lhe business men have subscribed yyver 1.000 for the same. Running and trot ting races Fourth of July week. New ork Carnival Company will furnish the free at tractions and some of the platform and canvas shows. The following are the com mittee: J. S. Hotfman, Chas. Rosencrans, Wim. Morris, Jr., Arthur Benson, Wm. Parker, Chas. Green, Jr., H. Heimedinger and Phil Cohen. the Kiks Ledge No. 448, of Cambridge, O.. held their first street fair June 14, proved a financial success to the lodge and the Cincinnati Carnival Company, Who furnished all the attractions. All speak in high praise of the Elks. The city was beautifully and profusely decor ated with the Elks’ colors of purple and white, crowded with visitors, and the fair was a pronounced success. ‘The Midway Was a scene of gaiety each day and night, aud all exhibitions and shows of the Car nival Company were clean and moral. Street fuirs can be made protitable and popular by conducting them like the B. P. ©. E. of Cambridge have done. An innovation in American amusements that has instantaneously placed itself as a record breaker in the field, is the Incorpor ated DeKreko Bros.’ Roman Carnival and Exposition Company. Never in the history of the Elks’ entertainments in the West has there been such crowds turn out or such enthusiastic praise. Shakespeare's expres sion on aphorism, ““There is nothing new under the sun,’ finds contradiction in the representations in the fifteen different shows on the new Roman forum. The way that patrons, speaking professionally, eat these shows up, tells the tale that” the money spenders must think they have, in mining parlance, struck a bonanza. Phe Western newspapers, very critical usually, write unstinted corroboration of the com pany’s popularity, and the report comes di rect from the Elks’ lodges of their entire satisfaction. The Victor Times, The Pueblo Chieftain and the Star Journal, of the same city, have star headings that read effectively of the surprise created in the vicinity by the advent of this now famous organization. Street comments are prevalent, and they tell of the phalanx of mighty shows in a way that leaves no doubt about te poularity of the numerous aggregations and the people’s feelings in regard to them. Elks are enthused so much by receiving more than they expected, that each lodge individually is working like a Trogan, with the result in sight of a large profit. Every one who has investigated the Roman Carnival and Exposition Company's methods of making people merry, has nothing but pro phetie words to utter that A. K. De Kreko’s new carnival idea can be absolutely nothing else but lucrative. LIST OF FAIRS. ALABAMA. BIRMINGHAM, ALA.—State Fair. Oct. —, 1902. Hon . M. Drennen, vice pres.; ENSLEY, ALA.—Fair.
