Main Circus will hold forth. There will be elephants lumber-' ing along, curling tneir trunks and flopping their long ears; camels humping behind, gilt cages with growling tigers, tojvstriped zebras long^necked giraffes,' bushy-haired wild men— everything to make the children stare in wonder and wish j to crawl under the tent to see the] big show, as their fathers did, if they do not possess the wherewithal to enter the main gate. Among the many big novelties and spectacular offerings to be found with the Walter L. Main Circus this year will be Madam Julia Rebras, sensation of continental Europe, intrepid French artist who loops the loop in a bicycle at every performance.
