did much better than they were able to
do the first evening. Quite a number
OF new features were introduced into

cellent bead" yet he made many
miss shots. He Is as handy with his
toes as many people are with their fin

another Of the performers was a marvel
Of clambering agility. A slender oam-
boo pole was suspended by one end to
the ~proscenium, while the lower end
swung loose about eight feet above the
stage. The performer clamoered up
and down this smooth little pole,

human race is not all moonshine, after

Professor Gangero, with his miraculous
balls, boxes, bottle, balancing and

Il whole show all by himself. An ell
tirely new programme Of wonderful
feats Is billed for to-night, introducing
top-spinning. screen balancing, Can
gero's suspension sword, and other
startling novelties. There Is no extra
charge for reserved seats.
