FITZCERALD'S CIRCUS.
Mr T. Fitzgerald, of Fitzgerald’s Circus, has for some time past been in Europe, with the object of obtaining talent for an Australasian tour. He has been through England, Scotland, Wales, Germany, France and Italy, and has brought out a large'company of performers, with' which he will open a season in Christchurch on March 18. The new members of the company come from Barnum’s World’s Greatest'Show, from the London Aquarium, .and from circuses in France, Russia and 'Other European countries. Among them are jugglers, clowns, pantomimists, dancers, riders, comedians, acrobats, and other artists who make up a modern circus. Among the animals there is a tffier Which rides a horse, and a lion and anelephant which ride a tricycle. It is announced that the menagerie is full of “weird and performing animals,” many of which have been added since the circus appeared previously in this colony. The performing animals are in charge of Herr Zaff, and the band is still conducted by Herr Von der Mahden.
