SPORTSMEN'S SHOW.
ATTENDANCE AT GARDEN SAID TO HAVE
BEEN NINETY THOUSAND-THE
SINGING BEAR.

The sportsmen's Show at Madison Square Garden
will be brought 10 close tonight Captain
Dressel the secretary OF the association said last
might that conservative estimate of the at
tendance at the show during the two weeks had
been about ninety thousand. This will mean, Of
! course. a neat profit for the organization which
has conducted the exhibit. L. o. Armstrong. Of
Canada. who has been largely responsible for the
Indian representation OF 'Hawatha," says that he
had considerable trouble in getting the red men TO
act but that he expects TO improve the perform
ance next year.
The attendance last night large ever,
and as this will be the closing day of the show the
management Will arrange for three performances
af ''FIiawatha," in the morning at IL O'Clock,
ore in she afternoon ct and one at S.
The temper of some OF the wild animals at the
show has not improved in the last few days, even
the little California quail being more pugilstic than
usual. They chase the big pheasants about their
cage al intervals the intense amusement of the
while the Mexican tiger eat chafes and tugs his
rope. Only the black bears appear to be contented
with civilization They have become confirmed
slaves of the sugar habit and OF the fat rascals
will almost cry in vexation if a lump of sugar is
held for length OF time just out OF his reach.
He Whnes for the sugar in way that with an
imaginative mind might construe into singing for
the dainty morsel l. P. Ittel. Of Allegheny City.
continues TO make fine record in the rife contests.
