when the show visited this section eight
year ago. At the afteroon and evening
performances, the circus tent was well
filled. A good many, however, allege
that the biggest part of the show was on

somethingnew and startling, and are not
satisfied with the old feats of ttitublipg,
riding, etc. The feat of" a horse walking

also had a number of fine-looking; appar-
ently gold watehes for sale, and managed
to victimize a couplieof persons, before it
was discovered that the ivatehes were a
sham, being a braise case titithout even

seller, like a proverbial arab, had "folded

THOSE AMUSEMENTS -,--A REJOINDER
To'tlte Editor of the New Era.
Ste, -Every candid reader of my criticism
of Data's letter, saw that there was no ati
tempt to intrude denominationalism. The
only mention at the mime of a church was in
the 'defence of Observer from an attempt to
reproachlim for being -as was reported -a
member of a Certain. church., Whether 'he
was a rnerither of that church, I did not know,
It made no difference what church Observer
was a member of, whether Baptist or Epis3o-
• pallet), Presbyterian or Methodist It was
• the principles that made the issue. My letter
contained what I believe are broad, Christian
Srinciplek-principles advocated by no one
denomination, but advocated by all: Having
