The Circus.
A fair audience greeted King A
Franklin's circus yesterday and last
night at its presentation on “the lawn.”
As a general thing there Is little variety
in a performance of this kind, all being
nearly alike. Tet in this entertainment
there are several new and novel fea
tures not always to be seen. Notable
among these is a presentation of living
statunry. This in itself is well arranged
and well rendered, and alone Is worth
the very low prloe of admission.
The educated horse is another draw
ing card for the show, a* seldom Is there
to be seen an animal combining at once
such boauty and Intelligence. The
march to music by bis equine majesty,
In which he kept perfect time to the
measure was peculiarly good. ,
The trapeze and anroballo business
was above the average, and the hippo
drome racing very exoiting.
Of course the usual funny clown was
en evidence, and divided the modicum
of laughter with the concert.
I have just received a fresh lot
Black Buckwheat Flour, New crop
Maple Syrup, Apples, Malaga
Grapes, Cocoanuts, Evaporated
Peaches, Evaporated Apricots,
Cheese, Macaroni, Olives, Pickles
of all kinds.
Cabbage, Onions, Rutabaga Turnips,

Fish.
A new lot of California Honey just In.
Pigs Feet, Mackerel, Breakfast Bacon,
Hams, Shoulden, etc.
Can Goods, world without end, cheap
er than ever.
