Circus day is with us again. This is the day the kid reigns supreme. He ascended his throne early this morning when the great Coop and Lente circus pitched its tent on the Fair Grounds, and will abdicate to- night when the last pole has been packed into position, and the caravan is on its way fo the next stop. There is a fascination about a cir cus that is not comparable to any- thing else. Crowds of children watched with unfeigned glee when the tented city that is to have ephem- eral existence sprung into being at the Fair Grounds early this morning. Such a rush of industry seized- the youth of Kingston as is seldom seen on any other day of the year. Every one wanted to help in some way. Offers to look after the elephants, to feed the laughing hyenas, or put the zebra through his paces were fre- quent, The speed with which the army of workmen set the tents up left the youngsters gasping, and was an object lesson in systematizing. The task of setting up the tent! completed, preparations were made for the street parade. Beautiful Shetland ponies and all the funny sights on view in a circus parade were lined up at the head of the pro- cession. The band swung 'into its seat at the top of the big red chariot, and the procession was on its way! through the main streets Followed by hordes of children, the procession moved like a trium- phal march through the city. The clowns, daubed and disguised to rep- resent all the latest movie and comic picture celebrities, went through their funniest antics, grimacing at the crowd, and taking off Charlie Chaplin, Mutt and Jeff, and other mirth provokers. The main streets of the city were visited. The parade was a great \ | 1 | success, The small boy was out to do homage to his idol, and he didn't] spare his enthusiasm, Young children clung to their] The steamer W.

People who witnessed the accident state that it was nothing less than a miracle that the men were not killed |] or serfously hurt. The car was badly damaged. The only thing|l} that saved the young fellows from being hurt, was the fact that they were thrown clear to one side of the road, and were not pinned under the car, ' "I noticed the car going out King street," said a citizen to the Whig, on Tuesday morning.

It was certainly a wonder the men in car were not injured." Two other citizens who witnessed the accident, stated that the men were driving very fast---io00 fast for the city--and that they ghould have been arrested. Had the auto crashed into another car coming in to the city there would have been an awful tragedy. "It is about time that the owners of the cars speeding out and on the breakwater were brought to time," sald one resident of King street west to the Whig." It is a shame the way the autos tear along there, en- dangering "the lives of the people." Another citizen stated that his idea to overcome the nuisance was to have a penalty of say $50 and costs imposed on every driver who violated the speed law. He pointed out that in large cities, where the automobile trafic was very much congested, that heavy fines had been imposed, and that it had been the means of stopping the speeding, The small fines did not check the speed," only. costs for speeding, even the men of money started to make a kick, and was the means of "topping the nuis- ial Extra Specials 6 only, Fancy Colored Dresses, samples, this season's newest, sizes 34 to 36 Wednesday special . ... $1.95 4 only Fancy Dresses, pretty colorings, dainty designs, sizes 34 to 36 only, priced $6.50 each.
