Things Worth While In the Circus Eealm. The Sanger's Greater European Shows have spread a dragnet over the amusement and zoological universe and hauled in the ropes; have made a scientific assortment of the great catch, retained all that was wonderfully striking or sensational and cast the refuse to other shows. If there is anything really wortn while in the circus realm today which has been overlooked, the newspapers in the large cities have missed it, for they have pronounced the Sanger's Greater European Shows as the world's perfect show.
