RINGLING SHOW A GOOD ONE.

Immense Crowds Attended Afternoon
and Night Performances.

It's a good circus that Ringling Bros. brought to Kansas City this year. In fact, it is no violation of confidence to state that the Ringling circus this year is about the biggest, brightest and best in its line. Owning, as they do, the Barnum & Baily, Sells-Fourpaugh and Buffalo Bill Wild West shows it doesn't require the wisdom of a Solomon for discern which name will be heralded premier in the circus world. The Ringlings have always prided themselves on conducting "clean" shows and they certainly live up to their pride.

The crowd that turned up yesterday afternoon filled every seat in the big tent and occupied the ground space five rows in front of the seats for the entire distance around the big tent. It is estimated that more than 30,000 people saw the circus yesterday afternoon and last night.

In the way of circus acts the Ringlings feature a number that possess genuine merit. The entire bill is marked by a high average. As usual the animal section of the show remains its popular interest.
