GENTRY BROTHERS SHOW
Trained Animals Do Many Clever
Stunts, and There Are Special
Features of Merit

That old saying about trained ami
mails that they can do every thing
but talk" comes forcibly TO mind
when witnessing the performances OF
the ponies. dogs. monkeys and ele-
plants OF the Gentry Brothers show.
which Is To be In Detroit all week.
Tricks that are really marvellous In
the number OF animals participating
and the ease with which they are COM
pleted follow one another In amazing
succession.
1t Is pre-eminently a show for the
young folks, but the older ones will
find that they can have Just as much
fun.
A military drill by a herd OF IL
ponies in which variety OF forma
tons are gone through at the word OF
command Is only the starter for the
big animal show. The dogs do things
Just as interesting and as difficult and
then come the ponderous and solemn
elephants, who have their own roper
toire of feats. Last OF all are the
monkeys. and their almost human
stunts are irresistibly humorous.
Beside the trained animals. there
are a number OF special acts. A hand
some young woman ascends to the
top OF the tent, clinging to leather
strap by her teeth, and there does a
variety of evolutions. Five nimble
Japanese tumble. juggle and perform
feats of strength and skill. A very
clever and also funny act on the hor-
izontal bars by the Steiner brothers
is An excellent feature.
The most notable man IN the show
is Trainer Mooney, who handles all
kinds OF animals with equal skill, pa
tience and good humor. Last OF all
the attractions, but not to be forgot
ten, are the trick mule and the colored
man who tries to ride her.
Afternoon and evening perform
ances will be given each day this week
in the tents at Willis-ave. and Brush

REYES FOLLOWERS

MONTEREY Mexico, Aug. G.-That
little IS needed TO start rioting among
the followers OF General Reyes is the
belief hfHe following the circulation Of
conflicting rumOrs from Galeana. where
Reyes is said 10 have been held virtu-
ally a prisoner .or several weeks.
These run orr have had a disquieting
effect on Reyss' followers. Today's re-
ports, though generally indefinite, agree
that there is a sudden renewal OF ac-
tivity Of the 1oops surrounding Gal
cana
Whether Reyes has escaped and the
soldiers are seeking him, or whether
the troops following The reported break
between Reyes and President Diaz are
making Il certain that Reyes cannot
appear in Monterey on September 1s as
he had promised. cannot be learned
The activity Of the troops, whatever the
cause. is generally construed by the
Reyes faction here as an unfriendIy ac-
tion on the part Of the administration.
The Reyes followers are armed, and
an outbreak is feared.
Government officers friendly to Reyes
are being quietly removed. This also
has an inaammatory effect on the
Reyes action.

Cuno H. Rudolph Sees Pc

Success.
rs NOT CONFINED
TO ANY ONE LINE
There Is Good Demand for Money,
and Rates Are
Fair.

With labor az a premium, factories
filed with orders. and a remarkable ab-
sence Of speculation. the entire country,
in the opinion Of Cuno H. Rudolph,
president Of the hardware firm OF Ru-
dolph & West Company, has already
entered upon a period OF prosperity the
extent Of which has never been equaled
in the cclmtry's history. Mr. Rudolph
is of the opinion that the prosperity is
not confined TO one line Of trade.
The prevailing conditions in the hard
ware and metal business, said Mr..
Rudolph, todsy, ARE generally conced-
ed TO offer the safest basis for arriving
az an estimate Of the status Of al other
lines Of business. You may therefore
say that present conditions are most
gratifying, and prospects for the future
were never brighter"
That the coming prosperity is a real
ify and that every line or industry con-
udenuy expects TO share in II is indi-
Gated by the preparations beiag made
Ia Washington for increased business.
Dealers Are Alive.

indication that the hand-tO-mouth or

clining 3 large volume of business el.-
tered for the first quarter Of 1910.
Mr.. Rudolph believes that upward re-
vision OF the tariff in many instances
VIII result in increased prices TO the
consumer. This, however, should be
overcone in Mr. Rudoiph's opinion. BY
the fact that labor VIII get more money
and steadier employment and therefore
will be well equipped TO pay the in
creases demanded.
Felt IN Real Estate.
That the prosperity is making Itself
felt in the real estate market is indi-
Gated By Mr.. Rudolph.
The building industry Il our city. q"
he said, ''is particularly active at this
time, and IT is fair TO predict that in
number OF buildings and general eX-
cellence OF construction this year wiz
exceed any previous one. AS for this
activity IN other cities, an interesting
report recently published by ''The AIneri-
