very intelligent animals in the troupe. and
the Omaha Bee says of performance:
when excellence in all its details is at
tanned In the training of dumb animals, and
when this seems to have been accomplished
more by kindness than by cruelty, then I'M
stinted praise can be given such an exhibit
ton OF talent. The show given by the dogs
OF Prof. Gentry Is In every way worthy to
be classed In the front rank of excellence,
and therefore worthy of praise. It is good
In every particular, and each handsome dog
seems to do his part, with an accuracy, ease
ioyment of the exhibition. The feats per
formed by some Of the dogs are wonderful,
and never fail to bring forth most enthusiast
tic applause. The jumping of the greyhound
and Bruno Is as exciting as 1t Is marvellous
and was greeted last night with, great cheer
Ing and delight. When the sleek greyhound
Prince makes the great leap, the audience
give gasp of establishment as they see the
1.-the, long. body rise forward and upward
like rocket, covering a truly wonderful
space. Then the hound, as If regarding the
ieat accomplished as very little thing,
messed the exhibition last night, and every
body left highly pleased. The children were
there in great force, and it was sight good
for any one to see the sincere delight they
seemee to take The entertainment Of
Prof. Gentry's dogs is a success from every
price of admission asked. Not a person in
the city should miss the entertainment"
