Show . A MIGHTY MAGNET. Tbe Oraodnst, limatrst, llt Amutsmont Kntrrpria. f Sells Urothcrs' btupeudoiu alliance, alli-ance, which ii to exhibit at Salt Lake City on Weiluehilay ami IhurUay, July loth aud 10th, it may be truly said that the surpassing greatness of the show is no vain boast. Multiplying Multiply-ing circuses, and stages, and entertainments entertain-ments may appear at first sight to be a waste of energy and talent, but there is no deuying the impressiveness that it lends to the show as a whole. Tho spectator feels himself bew ilderingly auia.ed by the variety of the ellorts made for his entertainment. Space fails lis to note all the striking features of a programme which is almost as complicated as a railway time table. This oue thing, however, remains distinctly dis-tinctly clear: '1 hat in Sells Brothers' amusement arithmetic cyphers cyph-ers don't count. No aggregation of them will make a unit, neither will any number of commonplace things and unknown un-known (ill ups make a great show. The Messrs. Sells know this, and we have in mind a very pretentious management that would do well to learn it. The former specifically name their really amazing list of rare and varied features and illustrious performers. The latter cover thoir poverty of actual possessions under anouymous generalities and aliases. It is a mathematical deduction that of the two Sells Brothers have the greatest .show on earth, whatever the others' claim may bo beyond that bourn from which no traveler returns. Airain. no matter w hether the place of exhibition be a great city or a hamlet where of necessity a stop has to be made, Sells Brothers go upon tho square principle that one man's money is as good as another's, and never slight or curtail their performances. This is a most commendable exception, and has much to do with their popularity popular-ity among tho rural classes. |
