THOSE KNOWING AHlnAIs.
Prot. wermwood's Monkeys and Dogs Arr
0IsIas Mott Enjoyable Eatsrialnmsat.

Prof. Wormwood with his trained
monkeys and dogs. and the exhibitions
of the spectroscope has one Of the best
entertainments Of Its kind that ever
came to this part Of the country. 1t is
withal, an entertainment that is Of in
terest to everyone-to the old no less
than the young, from the standpoint of
the student of animals, and one finds
it very instructive as well as. pleasing
to watch the professor as he SO wonder
fully controls his many trained animals.
This word wonderful is not used in
advertently in any sense. for it is a re-
markable sight to watch him handle
them in their various accomplishments
Performances will be given, today, at
2 O'Clock, for the nominal price Of Is
cents for all, and in the evening-re-
served seats, 25 cents, admission. Is.
Meonian hall was well filled with an
audience, last evening, that applauded
when the interest sufficiently subsided
to give them the chance. The frolic-
the monkeys combined makes show
that rivals the best circus in the land.
and one at that, that one gets only an
understanding of the lower animals, so
called, much to our appreciation Of
what they are when only given a
chance for themselves.
1t is quite a sight alone, to see six
monkeys on one tricycle., clinging on by
tooth and nail. and 1t likewise is to see
trick performer on the same. The race,
where dogs become the horses and
monkeys become the men, with all the
details of the start, the race and the
finish are shown by some eight different
teams, is not to be seen every day. The
ease and quickness with which it all
passes off, goes in to make up mighty
satisfactory performance in every way
The views of the spectoscope are mar
velous and full of excitement. The
scenes given are varied each perform
ance, giving something new for each
of the entertainments.
The afternoon performances are es-
pecially interesting for the children.
At the conclusion. Prof. Wormwood
will be pleased to answer questions re-
garding his animals.
It's well worth the seeing, and :,
SHOW that will long be remembered by
all who have seen it. /
