Hohenzollern that his trial is to take place on English soil—not at all because the English will ho more sympath- etic with hirer than another nation might be, but because there 1s a traditional fairness and impartial- ity about .'English justice which no other 'country, not oven our. own, has been able, to surpass. The ob- ject at the ltreneit and Italian courts is to obtain a conviotiotl; the nim of an 1 nf;lislt court is to asminister justice. Our own prat.- tic°is marred by tar too much op- portunity for delay, by,...devlces of technicality that cheat justice of lier dues. But in t5iigland justice is justice,. . Varna.

Circus Day --- The Kids are Planning a 131g holiday At Goderich, Wednesday, Aug, lath Sparks World's Famous Shows will hold forth for a matinee and night exhibition, and the rare, unique and wonderful things that have been promised 011 paper will become a reality. The airy riders who, in diaphanous skirts have been pirouetting on the expansive backs of beautiful and speedy circus horses (on the bill boards) will he seen in all the gor- geousness of tulle ,and seductive steno ; the elephant's will copy their pictured acts of comedy and go them one better; the contortionist will pro- ceed to disentangle, himself from the knots he tied in his responsive body last year : the acrobatic families will turn dizzy somersaults and the clowns will work ori their latest comedy stunts to the great delight of the crowds present—we all like the clowns. There is nothing like the circus. It is the people's show par excellence, It is the one great American amuse, ment that appeals to all the people. The merit in a big circus like the Sparks Shows is in the fact that ev- erything in the show is the very best of its kind. There must inevitably he riding acts, but the riders are the leaders of their profession. There must be acrobats, but the acrobatic artists and aerialists aro gathered from the wide world, and are the best that money ran procure. It is this superiority in the quality of the: performers that makes the the Sparks Shows such a welcome visitor. Kippen.
