TRAINED ANIMAL SHOW.
Gentry Bros. Give Fine Parade and
Very Clever Performance.

The Gentry Bros trained animal
show is in the city and gave fine
parade shortly before noon today and
a decidedly clever performance before
large and interested audience this az
ternoon with another booked for to-
night, with number Of others to fol-
low.
The enthusiasm manifest at the APP
pearance Of the procession on the street
was reminiscent Of a big circus day
rather than that of the coming to town
of an exhibition like the Gentrys. which
has made its well earned reputation on
the marvellous intelligence displayed by
their equine and canine pets now aug
mented by numerous other animals.
The parade was large one and COM
prlsed far more Shetands than ever
heen in any previous similar column In
this city. Then the baby elephants and
camels are something new and added
to the features of the show, while the
ever nimble monkeys attracted the
usual attention.
The business that the Gentry show
does Is little less than marvellous. Its
patrons are among all classes OF the
community who always find something
to interest them and yet never see any,
thing that is shocking or immoral. The
show Is here for three days and viii
give performances each afternoon and
evening, the former beginning at 2:i5
and the latter at Sis The show
grounds are on Fourth South and State
