Great Performing Lions to Re Seen
Here Soon.

There are some wonderful lions
with the John II. Sparks Shows that
will exhibit here Tuesday, Nov. II,
at the show grounds. They are
not only of amazing size and beauty
but they have been trained to do
some of the most thrilling acts ever
presented to an audience. Herr
Fritz Bru unneL the worlds
greatest lion tanner, was born and
raised in the iungles Of equatorial
Africs, and from childhood was ac-
customed to hear the rosrs Of the
maL-caiing kings Of the forest that
prowled about bis cabin at night
His father once captured some lion
cubs which he trained to aid him in
his hunting expeditions. Thus
reared the boy naturally became a
lion tanner and hunter. Selecting
some cubs OF the largest species
known, he reared them and educated
them to perform feats that would IL
lustrate the amazing strength and
agility of these beasts.
During the performance OF the
Sparks Shows a group Of these mon
ster animals will be turned loose IL
great steel enclosure in full view
Of the Audience. Herr Drummer viii
enter this enclosure, unarmed
and put these lions through SOM
astonishing performances. 1t is th'
most thrilling act of the kind eye
seen and will never be forgotten by
the beholder.
Like every other act and feature
presented with the Sparks Show
/. is far away from and superior t
! nything of tho kind ever seen be
, fore. There are numerous othe
, trained animal acts in which tigers
leopsrds, hyenas, tremendous ele
plants, etc. will obey the command

days and Tuesdays great event
This means that those Pensacola
business men who are to get the bene-
fit of the Mardi Gras crowds must 20
down in their pockets at once and put
up the money to meet the deficiency.
The celebration this year will be on
a bigger plan than ever, but after 1t is
over. the association will be $4,000. 90 in
debt If the deficit is not made good
now. The Journal will double its sub
scription. How many others win do
