At Covington, last week, the results of the Dempsey-Firpe fight were annotinced from every bally platform and in every show within less than fifteen minutes after Keferee Gallagher had counted the fatal *““ten’’ over the ‘‘Wild Bull of the Pampas”. Chi-dren’s Day was the “big day” at Covington and ‘Clifton Forge Day’’ (Thursday), ordinarily the “big day"’, was a disappointment.

The Sun is a splendid newspaper, overing all of Western Tennessee. and visiting show people will find Mr. Stone always ready to beost anything in the way of clean amusements, During the Jackson engagement ‘‘Baldy’’ Potter and his crew commenced work on the construction of probably the largest water show ever carried by a carnival company. The famous Diving Ringens, now managing this attraction, are using their mammoth steel tank, is twenty-five feet in diameter, around Mr. Potter has bui It a seating capacity nearly a thousand people.

Rutherford, cigaret fiend, lectured before the high school in Jackson, Tenn., and received a column story in The Sun, giving his talk verbatim. Bessemer is a ‘‘fill-in’ date and the opening on Monday drew several thousand to the show grounds, where the show is appearing for the American Legion. Tuesday's business showed an increase, with the colored population freely patronizing the shows and rides. M plentiful in this locality.
