There will ho lots of animals, trained and otherwise, and about 900 people, rang ing from the roustabouts to performers and high-salaried animal trainers. Jf you want to see the circus unload it will ho “early to rise” for you. The circus special will arrive early in the morning show day, and the street pa rade will begin at 10 o’clock and tra verse the usual route. 'The world-fa mous Armour $25,000 dapple-gray horses are a great feature with the Sells-Floto Show this year. The theatrical manager of a decade ago used to believe when a play had been established in public favor that any kind of cast could be employed to exploit it before the public, and for that reason—no other—can a great many of them ascribe their ultimate failure. Not so with Mr. W. E. Natike- ville, manager of “Human Hearts,” which comes to us next Tuesday night, (12th inst). Mr. Nankeville has al ways maintained that the best is none too good for the public, and if by any possible chance he can batter his com panies, he never fails to do so. It is to this policy that he attributes tile won derful success of “Human Hearts” with the theatre-going public. The Great Sells-Floto Shows Consol idated, which comes to Newnan ori Oct. 29, will bring special importations in the way of all kinds of new circus acts which have been secured, in con junction with a long string of the pick of American performers. Every de partment has been increased extensive ly, and it is claimed the exhibition of blooded horses is the best ever offered, among which are the wonderful Armour Grays, the “Big Six,” who have cap tured all of the prizes at: the prominent horse shows. They are valued at $26,000. 'The parade, said to be the “finest turnout any circus has ever made in any country,” will traverse the principal streets on the morning of show day. Miss Jennie Cates, who went to Clearwater, Fla., a few weeks ago to accept a position as teacher in the pub lic schools of chat city, was required by the school laws of that State to pass an examination before entering upon her duties. She not only passed the examination easily, hut was highly complimented by the County Superin tendent of Education, who said she made the highest average of any appli cant in the same class with herself who had ever been before his board. This is splendid praise, yet is accepted as a matter of course by Miss Cates’ friends and admirers in Newnan, where she is thoroughly appreciated, not only for her ability as a teacher, but for her fine womanly qualities.
