The Otto Floto shows, with it's galaxy OF
animal stars, begins a three-day exhibition
in Omaha Thursday, May is, at Eighteenth
and Douglas. This will be the first white
canvas to spread here this season in the
circus line. Nearly all the amusement In
the Floto show is furnished by animal ac-
tors, although there are six midget clowns,
two ''rube' bands and two military bands.
Among the entertainers are elephants that
ride bicycles, roll ten pins, play musical
instruments and do some wonderful ball
ancing feats; beautiful little Shetland
ponies in drills, marches and tricks; monkey
comedians, fremen, bareback riders and
acrobats; clown dogs, trick dogs and leap
Ing greyhounds, educated cats and eques-
TRAN goats. Performing cats are very rare
and those with the Floto show are said to
be unusually clever. Cats are the hardest
Of all animals to train, not because they
lack intelligence, but because they are too
smart, and knowing what is wanted of them
are too wise to be "jollied" into doing 1t.
Another interesting performer with the
Floto circus is "Scotty," the champion high
diving dog Of the world. Unaided, Scotty
mounts a ladder to the middle Of the "big
top fifty feet from the ground, and then
plunges headlong into a net below. Most
dogs will make a dive Of eight or ten feet,
but few can be induced to drop over twenty
feet. There will be two performances each
day the show is in tow and a street parade
each morning.

comedy on the order Of The strollers,''
The Burgomaster," etc, will be the at
traction at Boyd's Thursday and Friday
nights. II will be the last attraction OF
the current regular season at Boyd's. The
comedy Is said to be a surprisingly clever
thing and to have made a big success in
New York. where II was originally pro-
duced. Good reports OF it come from all d.
rectlons. The scenes Of the piece are laid
in New York and deal with the troubles
OF a wealthy countryman, Rueben Norman,
while on a visit to his nephew. The piece
does not in any way smack OF the rural
as its title may suggest. A company of
fifty is required to present the piece. Some
Of the principals stand high in the profess
sion. Edward Nicander, Douglas Flint and
Margaret Soyre are three OF the best
known. Herman Perley, brother Of Frank
Perley, Alice Nelson's ex-manager, wrote
not only the book, but the music Of the
comedy. One of the big features of the
piece is the specially Of the Pajama girls.
Tho act is to this piece what the sextet
was to "Florodora." Some Of the very
catchy airs to be sung are: "Pajama Polly
Under the Circumstances" Its Just Like
