They are a whole abow in them
selves. A ppeariog in their native
costumes, they give an extraordi
nary exhibition of a new and very
high order. Something never be
fore witnessed in America. They
will appear in a series ol reckless,
daring performances and marvel
ous achievements, requiring rare
strength and skill—form human
pyramids, presenting athletic exer
cises, wonderful vaulting and leap
ing, manoeuvers on high ladders
classic con>srtions, astounding
wrestling, and accomplishing deeds
which require rare strength and
life-long practice. The New Mon
ster Show will exhibit in Americus
on Monday, October 27.
Visitors will have much to please
and astonish them on that day.
The street parade, which takes
place at 10 a. m., is a gorgeous
spectacle, and the beautiful gilded
wagons, gaily caparisoned horses
and riders, reflecting in the sun
the bright and dazzling costumes
with which they are adorned, make
up such a scene of grandeur and
splendor as to captivate every one.
We advise our readers to keep well
posted on the date, for there will
be a grand holiday sight on that
day.
The Mill Pond,
Wednesday night the Mayor and
City Council met to try the Mitch
ell mill pond case, which the Board
of Health hnd adjudged a nuisance
and recommended abated. Thirty-
eight witnesses had been summon
ed, all answering but about half
dozen. E. G. Simmons, for the
defendant, plead for a continuance
on account of absence of impor
tant witnesses, but as it was im
possible to get through with the
witnesses present, the court rultd
that the trial be proceeded with as
far as possible. About half
dozen witnesses were examined for
the city, and then the case wa,
continued until last night. The
fight promises to be a strong one
on both sides, and if better pro
gress was not made last night than
the night before, the case will not
come to an end before Saturday
night.

Patti Roia.
Patti Rosa produced her play of
Mizpah at the opera house at mat
inee yesterday and again at night.
With her pretty face, frolicsome
ilgurq, her mirth, music, dancing,
and “cute” little ways, ahe haa won
her way to the hearts of her audi
ences. It is her first appearance
in Atlanta, and it is but due the
deserving and delightful aoubrettc
to say that in her character of
“Mizpah” she won the sympathies
of her audience to a remarkable
degree. Her dancing is entitled
to much praise, while her vocal
powers met the hearty approval ol
her andicuces. Her support i, ex
cellent. In fact it is a carefully
selected and strong company.
Miss Rosa came to Atlanta and
few were aware of her merits, but
when ahe comes again she will find
a hearty welcome secured by her
leserving entertainment.—Atlanta
