Prof. Gentry, with his trained
dogs, ponies and monkeys, will be
with us next Friday and Saturday,
with matinee Saturday only. Prof.
Gentry is no stranger to our little
ones, having been here before,
and every little one that has seen
his show has told his playmate, so
all the little folks know something
about HIM and his little pets. His
show this season is larger than
ever, having in the grand free
street parade over 100 dogs, po-
nies and monkeys, also Little Pin
to, the smallest trained elephant
ever on exhibition. Since here
last. the professor has visited ev-
cry state in the union and has
made glad more children than old
Santa Claus himself. This year
the professor has established a
rule that every little one attending
his show shall have a free pony
ride after the performance and he
has 30 of the pretty little shetlands
brought out in the ring and placed
at their disposal for that purpose.
Be sure and see the grand parade
Friday at nOon-Over one half
mile long and the prettiest sight
ever on the streets here. For two
days only. 1t

Owing to the prevalence of small

criminal act on the part of the Of

one hundred men are huddled to-

Oct. "a. This famous company
which has delighted aud made
thousands laugh in the past, and
which will do likewise with count
less multitudes in the future, pre-
sents this season the most attract
i've list of novelties that it has ever
offered, with more comedians, more
singers, more dancers and better
musical organization than ever be-
fore. The program is replete with
new ballads, sketches and funny
sayings and doings, and the fun
runs fast and furious as the screams
of delight and volumes of applause
all testify. The entire bill is de-
voted to laughing purposes only,
with enough ballads and sentiment
for relaxation of the muscles af-
ter a prolonged spell of merriment.
Never before has there been such a
stupendous outlay of money made
for minstrel production, both in
securing the best available talent
and in scenery and costuming.
The free street parade at :: 80 p. m.
is emblematic of the mammoth pro-
portions to which the organization
has grown.

THE OPENING BALL.
Given by the AlconquIns Friday Evening
Was a Brilliant Success.

Friday evening marked the open
| ing of the season in our city as re-
CARDS social functions, the Algon-
quin Club giving its initial ball
that night, and it was an occasion
long to be remembered by those SC
fortunate as to be present. The
club rooms, which have recently
beef repaired and put in nice
condition, were brilliantly lighted
and at 80 the grand march began.
1t was ably led by Miss Lou Wash
ington of Mariett and Mr.. keenan,
FL. Skinner of this city, and bet
ter selection would have been an
impossibility, as both of these
young people are elegant dancers,
and the manner in which they ac-
quilted themselves on this occasion
was certainly creditable.
Dancing was continued until II
O'Clock, when during an intermis-
sion all repaired to julius Kahn S
popular establishment, where elab-
crate preparations had been made
and all were served with refresh
ments.
After the intermission dancing
was resumed and it was in the wee
sma' hours of the morning when
the party dispersed, all loud in
their praises of the Algonquins for
most pleasant evening.

40 OLD CANNON
Held by the War Department as Tro-
phies of the Spanish War.

Washington. May 23.-The war de-
partment is in possession of about 40
pieces of artillery captured or surren-
dered as a result of the war with Spain.
Many applications have ben received at
the department for the loan or gift of
these guns and a few of them have
been granted. The act of congress
under which the distribution is made
sanctions such loans or gifts only to G..
A. r. posts, soldiers memorial asso-
Citations and municipalities. The de-
partment is not yet settled in the ac-
ceptance of General Otis decision that
the Splash government is entitled to all
of the cannon in the Philippines out
side of those brought in by the Amer
icon army. The paragraph in the peace
treaty relating to the ownership of this
artillery admits of a double construc-
ton, but the weight of opinion in the
department is that the United States
is at least entitled to the possession of
the guns captured and surrendered be-
fore the signing of the peace protocol.
This would include the batteries at
Cavite, Corregidor island, at the mouth
of Manila bay, and probably those in
