The show is one that is built with

the grown-ups were as pleased with
the antics of the animals as were tie

Probably the most startling feat

a boy and girl on tight wire, the Ed

duced a number Of new stunts and
some Of them were sure thrillers.
Their ground work performed by a
team Of five people was all Of high
order.
The ponies were trained TO perfec-
ton and went through their turns
without hitch. The dogs were we'll

entertainment.
Probably the part that extracted
the most laughter was that enacted by
the big, good natured darkv and the

HONOR MANILA BAY
HERO

Annapolis, Md, Oct. 20.-The
presence of many distinguished naval
officers added much to the brilliance
of the ceremonies held in Bancroft
hall of the United States naval acad-
envy today at the dedication of a
memorial tablet to Capt. Charles
Vernon Gridley, U. S. N. Capt. Grid
ley was in command of Admiral Dew
ey's flagship Olympia at the battle
of Manila bay, and it was to him that
the admiral said at the beginning Of
the battle, "You may fire when you
are ready, Gridley." The erection of
the tablet in memory of Capt. Grid
ley was made possible by contribu-
tons from friends in the navy and
in civil life. Most of the money was
contributed through the personal
efforts of Mrs Allyn X. 'Capron, a
Washington woman who lost her hus-
band and son in the war with
Spain.
