	Midway stood " Darlmess amd Dawn " another good Midway attraction.
	Just below this was the entrance to the  " Streets of Mexico " As we
	passed by we caught a glimpse of several of the Mexican dancing girls
	and the Bull fighters on the front platform where they were on exhibition,

	that could be said in their favor. Above this was the  " Panoptican "
	and on the other side of the street was the Thompson " AERIO CYCLE "
