greater startling performances and
 more novel exhibitions than any oth- CT. There is good horseback riding
 in all circuses but in this perform
 ance there is the added touch of one
 step further in almost any thing.
 Notable indeed was the combining of acrobatics and riding where daring
 troupes in the different rings stand three high on each others shoulders on galloping horses and turn somer- saults. alighting on other gallOping horses. There were similar touches of novelty in the trapeze work of which there was a great deal Much that has been seen before with a crowning touch to each act, a little more fearless than ever. The work of the equilibrists and tight rope teams was the limit of the difficult and yet the graceful.
 One of the most pleasing novelties that seemed to take the place of the now common exhibition of trained seals, was a troupe of trained dogs attired in sleighbells of varying tones Accompanying the band the right dogs jumped over a barrier at the right time, to produce a quite sat isfactory rendition of The Last Rose of Summer" Dogs played a large part in the performance and accom- panied many acts, two clever canines performing in the elephant class and with them.
 The clowns were a joy as they all ways are but they were so numerous and so differently attired it seemed
 
 sort of a clown. Their stunts were mostly new and timely and Messrs. Taft and Bryan were both utilized as vehicles of fun. The clowns seem to be quite expert as animal trainers and presented many novelties. One of them has four geese trained to pull him around the arena in a cart. It was a big task for such small motive power but it was faithfully performed. The novelty of dressing dogs up to represent diminutive anil mals of almost every kind was well carried out and the fake baby ele- phant was about as good as the gen uine. The statuary and tableaux were a delight to those whose senti- ments tend to art, and so it was all the way through. The hippodrome performance was about as that of all circuses but as good as any and then came the wonderful and daring act, of the autos that pass in the air. It was performed exactly as pictured on the paper though the secret of one making the turn is that the two ma chimes run on separate tracks, one curving up at the end.
