   The Great Wallace Shows opened a two days' engagement at Exposition Park yesterday afternoon, and the program presented was the best seen in Pittsburg for years, and was greeted with salvos of applause. The acrobatic efforts of the Nelson family, the greatest in their line in the world, were simply marvelous; the Augelos are the equals of any flying artists in the business, and the grand ballet, led by the famous Mme. Maccari, was a new departure in a circus performance, and one that was greatly appreciated. There were innumerable acts by first class artists, while a small army of really funny clowns kept the audience convulsed by their absurdities. The show scored a great success. Will exhibit here on Monday, June 19.
