Lycoming Opera House.

The best pleased audience of the sea-
son left the Lycoming opera house last
night after the wonderful performance
given by Sipe's Educated Animals and
Professor Wormwood's dog and mon
key comedians. 1t was certainly the
most astonishing, ard at the same time
amusing exhibition in the line of train
ed animals that Williamsport has ever
had, and the big crowd of people fairly
went wild with delight at the wonderful
sights they saw. They marveled at
the astounding feats performed by ami
mails that display almost human intel
ligence and how these beasts can be
trained in such a thorough manner is
beyond conception.
There are ponies that waltz, twelve of
them do military drill that would be
hard to duplicate by a company of SOL
dIers, "Pedlar." beautiful pony dis.
tinguishes colors; dogs that turn back
ward somersaults, roll spheres, waltz,
and do other inconceivable tricks; one
dog. "Topsy" climbs thirty foot globe
on every rung; another can tell one ma
tional flag from another and is great in
arithmetic; monkeys engage in prize
| fight as real as any battle in the ring,
turn backward somersaults, run a police
patrol, work bicycles and an automobile
and perform all sorts of antics that are
wonderful and amusing in the extreme
and the program is varied at each per
formance The show closes with the
great forty pony act.
The matinees are just as fine and elab
crate as the night performances, too
and the entertainment is alike pleasing
| to young and old. Before the engage
ment of four days, with daily matinees
is over here, The Sun predicts that they
will be turning people away. You can
not afford to miss this exhibition and il
must be seen to be fully appreciated as
it battles Observation-Disclosures
