Berlin, Sept. 25.-An outbreak of war
in the Transvasl is regarded here az a
question OF a few days, or at the most,
OF a week.

space to the matter. Neither the attitude
of the people nor Of the press has changed
materially. Without exception they disap.
prove Of such war and blame Great
Britain for badgering the Transvsal be-

The liberal press also blames the Trans

rejecting such attempts and making of
them a casus belli. Thus ague the Vos-

AN EQUINE PARADOX
Slxty.one Horses Acting at One
Time in One Ring.

Among the hundreds of star feat
ures associated with Ringing
Brothers circus this sersop, nothing
has attracted more attention or ex-
cited more admiring, comment than
the marvellous performances of
O'Brien' g school OF high-bred equines.
Embraced in this equine company
are sixty-One of the handsOmest
horses ever seen in a circus ring; q
fact which all who witness the per-
formances of Ringing Brothers cir
Gus when it exhibits in Little Falls,
July %, will be able to attest. Three
features of this great act are par
ticularly notable; the large number
Of horses, the greatest company of
equines ever trained in this way, the
brilliancy and costly magnificence of
the trappings, and the immense
amount of paraphernalia used in the
production. The display Is given in
the middle ring. This arena is espe-
cially constructed for the act, and is
carried by the show. Instead of the
usual circle of earth, there is awood-
en- parapet, the top of which forms a
narrow circular platform enclosing
the arena. In the center of the ring
is succession OF circular stages, .ris-
ing like terraces one above the other,
and ending in lofty pedestal. The
director takes his station in the
handsome thoroughbred, with arch
into the ring. This prond specimen
Of horsehood the matchless charger,
"Silver King" is the avant courier
OF sixty beautiful equines, gorge
ously caparisoned, but unrestrained
by rein or bride, which approach
with the whirl and sweep of a caval-
ry charge, and then, suddenly halt
ing in their mad flight, line up in
solid column, awaiting with proud
impatience the first orders OF their
implicitly -obeyed trainer. The per-
Torrance that follows staggers even
the evidences of the senses. The
equine actors, without the slightest
hesitation or prompting, execute the
most difficult evolutions, dance, pir-
ouette. form colossal tableaux, and
go through the movements of q dif-
fcult military march. Then q score
or more of the horses take their
places on the parapet of the ring:
others group themselves upon the
circular entral stages. At the apex
is the shapely 'Silver King" Vault
ing upon the back of this beautiful
equine and raising the superb ami
NAL until he seems to be poised in
the air, the trainer mods his head.
Instantly, the great company of
horses is in motion. Some run to
the right, other to the left, but with
out leaving the narrow platforms.
With their sleek coats cleaning,
with their. radiantly-beautiful trap:
pings glittering in the light, and the
waving of their vari-colored plumes,
they form picture Of Understandable
beauty, lovely in it's coloring, and
thrilling in it's dramatic effect. This
finale never fails to create a sensa-
ton. O'Brien's famous sixty-one
horse act is only one Of scores of
features with this great show which
presents the finest geological display,
the most complete circus perform
ance, the most historic hippodrome,
and the finest free street parade ever
seen on earth.
