IMPORTED sTALL1oNs. Prof Herzog to Fill Return Engage ment at the Danbury Fair.

Can you imagine six beautiful stal- liors trained to drill and do various
 maneuvres with clock-work precision and scarcely a word from their trainer? Such indeed are Manuel Herzog's horses. to be seen at the Danbury fair in new acts more pleasing if anything than those of last year, when they were one of the great features of a great fair. AS animals they are tke finest equine speci- mems imaginable; high spirited and in telligent. and they are trained to the feats. such as walking on their hind highest degree. They perform with all most human intelligence number Of feats, such as walking OF their hind legs, going through various maneuvers of a semi military drill. and othre feats better seen than described, as pen pict~ ures could not do full justice. When you watch the various stunts which they, are called upon to do, you wonder at the skill and patience possessed by Prof Herzog and exercised by him in teaching these dumb brutes to go through a routine of tricks that seem to require a human mind in their carry ing out. If you are fond of the beauti- full in horseflesh, don't fall to see Her zog's beautiful stallions i'll their grace ful performances. There is another horse in this troupe that is also a mar vel. for it kicks a football, skips rope, and does several other tricks usually assigned to dogs and other small ami mals. This act, with the remarkable drill work Of the six stallions, ard the unique work of the rope jumping equine, is feature which wins universal favor. The dates of the Danbury Fair this year are October 5, 6, ', 8 and g. Excursion trains will run on all roads from towns within 70 mne radius of Danbury.
