GENTRY'S SCHOOL or RIDING.
A Peculiar and Charming Feature With
This Trained Animal Show.

One OF the most charming features o.
the Gentry Brothers'5 Famous Shows
United, which are to exhibit in Astoria
Tuesday, Oct, s, is the children's schoo1
of riding which is held every day be.
tween the matinee and evening per-
formances in the main animal tent.
As nearly everyone knows who has in
any way followed the fortunes of the
Gentry aggregation, the hundreds OF po-
nies, dogs, elephants, camels and other
animals with the fayorite of all trained
Ianimal shows are kept on exhibition in
the first tent entered after passing the
main entrance, and to many, the oppor.
tunity to get on friendly relations with
the Gentry happy family is regarded by
many as the most pleasant part of a
visit to the Gentry shows.
Immediately after the matinee per-
formance all children in the audience
ara made the guests of the Gentry
shows management and the ponies and
dogs, as well as the bigger animals,
hold sort of reception to the younger
generation which constitute the most
important part of the Gentry clientele.
Then follows scene which certainly
cannot be duplicated anywhere else in
the tented world. In charge of exper-
ienad attendants, all the boys and girls
who care to-and nearly all the boys
and girls do-are put astride the ponies
or mounted high on the elephants and
camels and thus enlisted in the ranks
of merry-makers. are ridden up and
down and around the tents to their
hearts content.
If any of the riders get tired of the
ponies they can ride the elephants, or
If the don't care for the elephants, they
can ego to sea- on the camels. At any
rate they make happy throng in the
Gentry animal tent and there is only
one scene to be compared with it. This
is, on bright afternoon when school is
out and the children are free. For then
they fill the main tent of the Gentrys
from the ground to the topmost seat
and buzz and hum and laugh a the
monkies and applaud the ponies and
cheer the dogs and have such a
enjoyable, innocent time as
to give ample explanation of the appela-
tion to which the Gentry shows are
"The Santa Claus of
,ircuses."

The Place To Dine.

Where shall we dine? There should
be no question about that. II you have
no appetite, but feel that you should
dine, drop into the Palace and, If you
meet Arthur Smith, ask him to pre-.
scribe for you. He'll do it, by laying
something tempting before you, and
while he does not wish to interfere with
physicians, prescribing for dyspepsia, he
is in the business to cater to mems
stomachs. Try him once and then you
will always dine at the Palace.

OBITUARY.

Two deaths have occurred here within
two days.
James Reed, an elderly citizen, who
had been living on Clark's point for the
past four years, died quite suddenly April
26. Mr.. Reed had been out Of health for
some time, but kept at work to within q
short time OF the final close of life.
When the death angel calls bright
young soul to the life beyond the veil it
seems to those bereft that the summons is
untimely. Thus it was when the word
went out that dear young girl, Maud
Walls, was dangerously ill W it'll wasting
disease, and the hope Of change for the
better was voiced on every side. Yet the
love of friends and skill of physicians
could not restore the patient sufferer to
health. After three months illness,
the dear girl entered into rest on Sunday
morning, April %.
Maud was the fifteen-year-old daugh-
ter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob Walls, and q
general favorite with all who knew her
sweet nature. She will be sadly missed
by her schoolmates. The blow falls with
crushing force upon the family circle
father, mother, one sister and three
brothers-and the whole community sor-
rows in sympathy with the bereaved ones.
"God giveth quietness at last;
The common way that all must pass
She went, with mortal yearnings fond,
To fuller life and love beyond"
