 HYPERION THEATEH

To describe all that is done by Professor Bristol's educated horses, ponies and mules woplleat be impossible. It is only necessary to say that the exhibition given is most wonderful one. They under stand what is said to them with an in telligence that is almost human. The horses act so intelligently that one would hardly be surprised to hear them speak The donkey, too, shows a wonderful amount of intelligence and is simply 8 phenomenon. Professor Bristol certainly deserves praise for the masterly way in which he has trained his company of horses, who obey military command with out the slightest guidance. The horses will appear this afternoon and evening for the last times. Children's reception on the stage after the matinee.
 The Emma Juch English Opera company Charles E. Locke director, will appear next Tuesday evening, presenting for the first time in this city the romantic opera in three acts, by Richard Wagner, s'Tann- hauser," with the following superb cast: Hermann, Landgrave of Thuringia. ........

The story of Gus j. Heege's new Anglo

Swedish machinist, an emigrant to Amer

The boy to be adopted by family OF Swedes
in Northern Minnesota, and he grows UP 10
manhood among these people. retaining his
natural characteristics and his Anglo
Swedish dialect. The capitalist yields tn
the wishes Of his wife and adopts the girl
himself. The poor Swpde's invention
proves enormously profitable, so much so
that the spirit of avarice masters the old
man. and he reirainS cot only from telling
the girl the truth, but also from discovering
the whereabouts OF the boy, in order to
make AN honorable distribution of the
profits. The old mans partner, an I'M

worthless land. The Englishman discovers
the attempted swindle, and, during an
angry alteration with the old man, the
: latter strikes him down with his cane, and
leaves him lying in the snow, apparently
dead. Half crazed by what he has done, he
returns to his palmer, who discovers the
truth, and uses his knowledge to further
strengthen his mastery over the old man.
Broken down in health and spirits, the old
