It Is Raid that the immense tent . would hold nine thousand. If this is true. tbeo there was over seven thousand people ' under the canvass. ? The circus was a splendid one in every particular, and the performance was varied, and , continued until everybody was satisfied. Tbe show bad been ex euslvely advertised. ' Tbe weather was an Ideal day?beautiful it. every way. Tbe people began to come In . early in tbe morning, and every road leadln* Into tbe city brought great numbers. I Tiiere was not a drank man in town, and not a single violation of tbe peace. The dispensary had been closed, and thus It was that tbe possibility lor drunkennenH was prevented. The autborlties readily ordered the dispensary closed on tbe request of the Business League. * The merchants and clerks in tbe stores were kept busy all day dealing out goods to anxious buyers. Some ol tbe merchants couid have sold everything tbey had in stock if tbey bad bad enough olerks to wrap up tbe goods. There never was a day in tbe history of Abbeville, when the trade was as satlsf ictory ms It was last Friday. Every store In r IUWII U1U Nil LUC IIUOIUCOS lUOb I.HO IUIW IU > thf-lr employ con Id bandle. All were delighted wtiti their Bales. Tbe cash nales ag" ((regaled several thousand dollars. People may say what they please about a circus taklDic money onto! the country, but there Is no douot that Abbeville reaped a big , advantage from the coming of the clrcns. Instead of charging a big license fee Abbeville could afford to give a big bonus to Induce the ' circus to come again. SUNBEAMS AT TROY. Marriages? Blrlb?-VI<tllor?-8lfknftt 1 ?Happiness. Troy, 8.
