Davis lied into his cabin nearby

heavily armed and had a quantity of
ammunition. With his wife, who had

desperate resistance.
Sheriff Douglass, though wounded,

(?real Spectacle of "(Tcojiutru" Begins
Regular Performance.
The Barnum and Bailey Oreatesl
Show on Karth and newly added spec
tacle of "Cleopatra" will exhibit in
Greenville on October Iii,. The spec
tacle in itself is an attraction thai
should till the big tent at each per
form Mice and draw thousands of visit
ors om the surrounding districts. It
is beyond question the greatest pro
duction of its kind ever seen In Ameri
ca.
The world's most skillful scenic ar
tists, COStlimors, property builders,
chorus directors and stage managers
wore engaged to mount the produc
tion. A stage bigger than a hundred
ordinary theatres was built and made
portable so that it can be conveyed
from town to town and erected each
day In the main tent. The circus pro
prietors have thus made it possible
for those who live in contributory
towns, even farmers and their fami
lies, to see the magnificent wordless
play that is an Immense attraction in
the largest cities. It Is enacted with
a cast of 1,250 actors, a grand opera
? horns, an orchestra of 100 soloists,
a ballet of 350 dancing girls, 650
horses, live herds of elephants, cara
vans of camels, and a tralnload of
special devices, costumes, and scenery
and electrical mechanism for produc
ing stielt effects as lightning, thunder,
sand storms on the desert, volcanoes
in action, sunrise. Hoods, and mirages.
The realism of the scenery is per
fect, it is as though the audience was
looking Into the streets of Alexandria
in the day of l'toleinys. The Streets
throb with their strange cosmopolitan
life, in the middle distance Hows the
Nile, the mighty pyramids and the
sphinx looking down from past ages.
Beyond them stretch endless wastes
of sand. The laureats of a dead race
speak from forgotten tombs. The
walls of time fall down, and WO SCO
the court of Cleopatra during its years
of extravagance ami revelry, and hear
the story of the betrayal of Rome and
the undoing of Marc Antony, told in a
vividly realistic way. The incidental
music was arranged by Kalt is Kffeiidi.
