The performances of PSof. Hnrlburt's
troupe of trained horses is without doubt
the finest thing Of the kind ever seen in
this or any other city, and illustrates the
power of man over the noblest of animals.
Among the many wonderful feats is that
of Prince in which he unties handker-
chiefs from his legs and hangs them out
to dry. He then retires from the stage
and. after other feats have been performed
by various horses, returns and finds the
handkerchief and gives il back to the pro-
fessor. The exploit Of the beautiful white
horse 'sSam" in picking a silver half dol
lar out of pail Of water is also worthy
Of mention. Indeed, the entire troupe is so
well educated that it is difficult matter
to select any particular horse or act as

thence and perseverance employed by the
professor to educate these animals to so
high standard is something marvellous,
