trained animals, which comprises several
Arabian horses, twenty-five dogs, goats,
mules and monkeys, all marvellously
trained and exhibiting exploits and tricks
out of the ordinary line. Then there are
many big @rialistic acts. clever lady gym
nasts, .to-date clowns, jugglers, wire
walkers and sensational specialists of
every kind. Seats are provided for 5000
persons, uniformed ushers are in attend
ance to look after the wants and comfort
of patrons
