A realistic sham battle or Indian fight staged by the military:
Fireworks of extraordinary brilliancy and beauty.

Happily, the crowd filters away into the darkness
And on the field lies a litter of broken animals,
Steamboats, torn pieces of colored cloth, and rough and ready scenery,
—The scattered debris of a great circus at Interscholastic.
