INJUNCTION FILED ON INDOOR CIRCUS BARD
Cotton Pickin' Water-Melon Eaters May be Barred From Pike
Root's Big Indoor Never-Before-Seen-Circus has filed an injunction in the practice court of the third district of the University of Kansas to prohibit the production of the great minstrel show on the Pike during the Exposition. Orlin Weede, general manager of the production, has appealed to the head of the University to annul this injunction in order to carry on this prizeless production of prodigious producers. The Chancellor is expected to accede to his demands and prohibit the injunction taking effect until May 4th.
The minstrel show had planned to give a performance rarely seen out of New York or any of the larger cities. The Cotton Pickin' Watermelon-Eaters in their latest delimitations direct from a four hour New York Hippodrome will have the latest catchy songs and choice cannula.
Many have been prone to believe that the cost of admission would be stupendous, but it has been arranged as a special feature that during the afternoons of the Exposition the price will be lowered to all children, faculty, and visitors for the two days only.
There is an absolute guarantee that there is not a single blonde in the company, and all money shall be refunded if any suspicion shall be directed toward the veracity of this statement.
The Santa Fe Trail booth will have as its attraction a continuous performance.

With A Fast Field Manager Hamilton Expects Great Work-More Entries
MAY SMASH RECORDS IN INTERSCHOLASTIC
Entries for nine more teams were received for the Kansas State Intreroscholastic track meet yesterday. All signs now indicate at least 50 team entries and 500 athletes here for the meet. "100 athletes are now entered."
Kansas City, Kas., Winchester,
Valley Center, Lawrence, Clear-
water, Concordia, Onaga, Abilene,
and Tonganoxib entered yesterday
with about 50 men representing
them.
"With so many men entered in the meet, and a field in the splendid shape that McCook is in, there is no reason why some of the present managers record accounts should not be smashed," said Manager Hamilton yesterday.
The record for the 100 yard dash is 10.15 seconds, set by Butler of Hutchinson. It is not definitely known whether this sprinter will be back. Butler also has an excellent chance to break a long standing record in the 220 yard dash. He won that event last season. The state record of 23.5, set up Stahl, Lawrence high school, 1907.
Palmer of Lawrence high will not be back to run the 440, 880, and mile, which events he won so easily last year.
Butler of Hutchinson also won the 220 yard hurdles last year, after taking the 100 and 220 yard dash. His time of 28 seconds is just 3-5 of a second behind the record established by Dutch Martin in 1902. The national intercolobistic record for that event is 25 flat.
Taken all in all, the events that want to be watched to see an attempt a a record are the 50, the 100, and the 220 yard dashes, the 220 yard hurdles, the broad jump, and the shot put. At least one of those records should be shattered and probably more.
Brooker of Lawrence high, who took the running broad jump last year, is back. The present record is 21 ft. 2-1 in.
American flags will help cover over these spots.
AND THE EXPOSITION IS ONLY 36 HOURS OFF
(Continued from page 1.)
The Gymnasium is absolutely cleared of all apparatus and is ready for the work of constructing booths.
With perfect weather and the spirit with which every one has undertaken his share in the exhibits, the University will be prepared to extend its hand to all visitors.
Schools Will Get Acquainted In the excitement of erecting boots, banners, and signs to form the University Exposition, the real purpose of the Exposition has been that it connects but to a few closely connected with the work of directing the practical work of the Exposition.
"This exposition is not meant only to reveal a thorough knowledge of the work carried on at the University to visitors," emphasized "Proxy" Weede this morning, "but the underlying reason this Exposition was established was to give to the students and the faculty of the various departments of the University an insight in the affairs and the work carried on by other departments of the University.
Schools Will Get Acquainted
"If the Exposition does nothing more than to accomplish this end, it will carry out its full purpose."
2,000 EXPECTED TO SEE ROOT'S TENTSHOW
Henri And Alice Here-Blackmar Enthusiastic Over Tight-Wire Artist
Reserved seat tickets for the indoor circus went on sale this morning. C. B. Root estimated that by tomborrow all the tickets would be sold
"I expect two thousand people to see that show," he declared this morning. "I have already received many outside orders for seats and by Friday night standing room itself will probably be at a premium."
The big show is attracting much attention, and all the leading papers of the Mississippi Valley will have special correspondents present to cover the performance. The President of Yazoo College will be seen in the Chancellor's box, and will visit the biography of P.T. Barnum before the grand parade, Practically all the performers are here now, and the rings are being put in order by a corps of experienced ring fitters.
Alice, the boarded girl arrived in a special cage late last night. Henri, the slack wire virtuoso, goes through his live practice today.
Henri is conceded to be the only man in the world who can accomplish the stupendous feats on the wire which seem to come so easily for him. Standing on the wire with one foot, he jumps over it by his left hand he holds an easel, and will produce in colors any man whose name is given to him. In speaking of this feat, Dean F. W. Blackmar said:
"I saw Henri perform in Kalamazoo, and I shall never forget. I had never dreamed that a human being could attain such a degree of skill in anything. I want all my friends to see him, and will even buy their tickets if necessary."
The animal train is expected to arrive Thursday night, though no information will be given out on this point, since the management fears that too large a crowd will cause more or less fatalities at the inloading.
Art Exhibit a Winner
The art exhibit of the Extension department which for the past two weeks has been on display in the Wichita forum, had a record of 2-800 paid admissions. Monday the pictures were taken to Ottawa, where they are being shown in the public library.
Prof. R. A. Schwegel will speak at Oketo Friday, May 2, on "The Great Stone Face."
