MANY EXHIBITS MADE
Wichita Pet Stock Show
Proves to be a Success.
LARGE CROWDS ATTEND
Premiums for All Glasses Are
Awarded.

The second day Of the Wichita pet stock
show on North Main street was decided
success. The exhibits was lare and the
room was crowded with people during the
day and evening. The show is attracting
more than ordinary attention, for it i.
a novelty and the person who first visits
the room finds many things to see.
The Belgian hares have their admirers,
and the hares are fine ones, too. The
pigeons have the center of the room and
there are many varieties. AT the south
side are the white swans on display by
Charles Payne. the animal man. In cages
are two animals which attract These
are an antelope and deer. They are
verQ fine specimens and have many peo-
pie surrounding their cages to catch a
glimpse Of them, The Ocelots, the most
beautiful specimens Of the feline tribe
proves to be one Of the greatest attrac-
tons of the entire show. These are the
property of Charles Payne and it is safe
to say that very few people in Wichita
ever saw an Ocelot. The stripings are
beautiful. 1t would be hard to conceive
of more magnificent colorings and the
animals are not as small as it would at
first seem.
Last night one Of the interesting things
for the spectators was the ferret and rat
contest. The rats We're kept in an iron
cage so that everyone could see them
and two ferrets were turned loose with
them. 1t did not take long for the fer
ret to do away with the rat and it was
battle between rat and his deadly enemy,
the ferret Many people had seen moth
ing Of the kind and the event was at
tractive. One Of the principle troubles
that the management has is to get
enough rats to conduct as many of these
exhibitions as they desire.
Fanciers from over southern Kansas
are IN attendance at the show with their
exhibits and there are many things to
attract There are canary birds, parrots.
prize cats, mice white rats. and about
everything else in the pet line.
In the front window are two displays
which always attract a crowd In the
north window is a large eagle He sits on
his perch and looks calmly out on the
crowd which assemblies to see the great
American bird On the south side are
numerous California quail. These ex-
hibits are the property OF Mr.. Payne and
there are many people who take delight
in seeing the quail, which are a decided
novelty in this country.
