BUCK-JUMPING COMBINATION.

Messrs Bibby Bros.' buck-jumping and variety combination will open at Masterton, between the Waipoua bridges, on Tuesday evening next, and will also show at the Showgrounds, on Wednesday. The combination is well-known throughout Australasia as one of the best shows of its kind on tour, and nearly all the towns and villages between Auckland and Masterton have been visiced. There will be a big show of outlaws and trick ponies, and anyone who has a wild horse, and wishes it to be ridden, is invited to bring it to the ring, where Messrs Bibby Bros, will undertake the task. Miss Lily de Liste, the champion lady rider, who accompanies the show, met with an accident at Manakau, and will not be able to appear here, but a substitute will be obtained. Bibby Bros., who are both wond?rful riders, will be seen to advantage in their wonderful blindfold lassoing and half-hitching act. Mr Syd. Luella, acrobat clown, will give an exhibiion of trick pony riding. Another special feature of the exhibition will be the Barnard 8r03., the World's Champion Shootists, who the management have just engaged. The exhibitiun uf the shootists is worth the money alone, especially in the "William Tell" act with the rifle. Apart from this they perform fancy shooting in every imaginable nusition, shoot corks from the clown's head and a variety of other fascinating shots. The show is well spoken of by the Press, and should be well patronised.
