A gontloniiin, who was in the storm
about Waverly Hall. reportH t<i us
that about 11 o’clock yesterday mor
ning, the most terriUe storm he over
witnessed, passed in the neighbor
hood of Waverly Hall and Ellerslie,
in Harris county, blowing from the
Southwest, doing great damage to
property and killing several jieople,
blowing down houses, trees, fences,
ivnd everything before It.
Mount Airy church, near Ellerslie,
was blown down, and many,houses
in that neighborhood were also blown
down. The house of Mr. Canon, near
that place, was blown down, killing
Mrs, Canon and four of her children.
Mr. Canon and his two remaining
children, little boys, wore unhurt.
These reports our informant had
from persons in the neighborhood.
Ho rei>orts that very targe hall stones
fell: ">
It was reported to our informant
that the storm did great damage to
life and property in Hamilton; that
Air. Pitts had three and probably
four children killed and himself and
wife seriously hurt
We Mi have to wait for fuller jr
ticulars and a confirmation of the
above account, as our imformnnt got
his information from parties along
the road, and it may' be exaggerated.
We hope it was not as had us repre
sented to him.
LATER.
By passengers by the '2 o’clock
Southwestern train this morning, we
learn that the tornado was even more
devastating and destructive of life
than our rejiort above indicates; that
ii extended through a portion of Tal
bot county, and literally made aelean
sweep of everything before it hou
ses, trees and everything -nothing
could withstand its fury, and we fear
to hear of its further progress.
A gentleman came in on the Houtli
western train this morning for
six COFFINS

Canon- his wife, three daughters and
two son*. Capt. Canon and two sons

MOW TO Hl’ft A SHOW.
THK CftßX OF AMVtUNO THK FL’BU*
ROME KTARTLINd FfOfIRBH.
Through the kindness of Mr. John
Robinson, Jr., wo are enabled to give
our readers some Interesting items in
regard to tho internal economy of u
traveling circus company. We take
a iKirlod of ten years last past, and
present tho various expenditures
while “on tho move,” for that time.
Wo shall afterward s|K'iik of the ex
penses of wintering. Upon looking
over the books of the oomixtny wo
Hml that “hotel and livery amounted
to #71X1,000 ; “Advertising," $490,000;
"Incidentals,” *135,550; "Smithing,’ 1
*95,460; “Lots’’ $95,000; “Lights,”
#24,427 ; “Woodwork," $90,994: "Har
ness," $15,957; "Licenses,” corpora
tion, county, State and Government,
$151,448, And during tho six years
fast passed the oost of transportation
by railroads amounted to *92O,(XX).
The grand total reaches the enormous
sum of $1,824,105. These figures wore
taken by our reporter from the Itin
eracy, a journal in which every Hein
of income and expenditure is entered
day By day, as well as general notes
upon the route traveled: We gather
from this book that within eighteen
years this company lias passed over
111,853 miles, a distance of about four
times around the world.
i’ifty-ouc years ago old John Rob
inson, as he is called in the profes
sion, began the elreus business, and
retired only a short time ago to enjoy
the ease aud wealth ho liau earned by
prudence and industry. But the
troupe that gained an enviable repu
tation through bis exertions has nev
er lieun disbanded, and is now nour
ishing under t lie management of his
sons. This show starts out from Cin
cinnati every spring, returning in
time to fit out for tho succeeding
campaign. It is from the books of
this company that we have made the
extracts given above, ami wo now
propose to present soldo account of
its composition, and to mention the
amounts expended in this city during
the nnmtal refitting.
in visiting tho stables on Race
street we found more than sixt y hor
ses, all in prime condition, though
just returned from a ten mouths’
journey. Many of these are valuable
on account of the training required
to lit thorn for the ring, among them
two manege horses from the hands of
Franeoni, and a trick horse taught
by Mr. Sam Stickney. Fifty or more
snaggy shelties are tied to a long
rope extending the length of the sta
bles. These ismics wen) inqioited
by Mr. Robinson, and' wore selected
for their diminutive size. They are
used as teams in tho “Liliputian
Chiarots.” About forty cages of ani
mals will travel with tho show tills
spring. Here are not the wolves,
bears and foxes of the menageries of
olden times, but. rare and curious
beasts—tho giraffe, tho rhinoceros
and tho great seals at the head.
The expense of feeding those ani
mals during their stay here is, of
course, great but a smalt sum in
comparison with the carriage-ma
ker’s bill; for, at the end of the sea
son, every cage requires painting,
and many of them extensive repairs.
The three shops of Ohlseu & Have
i kotte are ft lied with Roblnsoti’s Cages
in various stages of renovation, af
fording work to a largo number of
mechanics. And here wo saw the
splendid band-wagons, glittering
with gold and glass. One of these
is adorned with remarkably fine
wood carvings, and cost, when new,
five thousand dollars. Then, too the
eanvass-workers find employment in
mending the tents, and the hands of
three or four shops are busied in
I malting harness, or in repairing the
old sets; and when we think of the
I many other things that must he done
!to prepare tho show for the road, wo
must say that the Robinsons get off
cheaply at sst)/xxi or SBt),IXXI.
Here, certainly, uro expenditures
enough to make one wonder how the
business can be made remunerative,
und yet we have said nothing iu
regard to the salaries paid to the per
formers, and the wages demanded by
the army of grooms and tent men.
What, these amount to we do not
know. We had some hesitation in
asking what each of the well-known
artists of this troupe received, we were
told in a general way trial the salaries
of circus performers varied from
twenty-five to five hundred dollars
a week, Mr. James ltoblrtson und
Madame Doekrell having each re
ceived the last-named sum for short
engagements.
It will !>e seen that it costs a great
deal of money, to run a show," arid
that the proprietors do not pocket
all that has been taken In atthe door.
