ponies and dogs at the opera house
Wednesday night drew the largest and
most refined audience that Canyon City
has ever turned out. The troupe of DO
MES executed many difficult tricks and a
military drill by a simple word Of com
mand; The drill was almost perfect and
brought forth general applause. The In
telligence of the pony Romeo is simply
beyond belief, and his work is the finest
probably of any horse in the world. The
little ponies and dogs do most everything
but talk. and their antics are worth most
any price to see. Prof. Gentry cannot be
too highly complimented on the excel
