The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1912-09-26

Viva Ethelia, soprano of the Chicago
Grand Opera company, delighted and
.astonished all by her beautiful voice.
She graciously responded to an en-
core last night and her welcome was
a most hearty one. Her singing Will
looked forward to as much as any
number o the program
The Hippodromc.
The Hippodrome is a decided sue
cess inasmuch as it presents the best
of feature acts from the circus and
vaudeville world. 1t is opened by the
rare performance OF ten polar bears
under the direction OF the European
master OF all animal trainers. Herr
Albers. An immense age covers thes
entire stage and in this the act is
staged. The bears are not so gentle
as they might be and the trainer
must needs be constantly on the
lookout to control them. He stages
many hair raising stunts, and in one
instance picks a large beast weigh
ing $50 pounds up or his shoulders
and carries him around the arena.
Then he wrestles with the huge
brute. At first the bear downs the
man and a battle royal ensues. Fin.
ally the man is able to rise and land
the bear on his back, downing both
shoulders.
A special juggling act is introduced
which is a special feature provided
by Mr.. Barnes, the promoter. in add
tion to the regular program. The
~iugglers are good and obtain their
share of the applause. They are fol-
lowed by Baptiste 4 Franconl the
strong men. Their act is an amazing
one as some of the feats of strength
they present appear absolutely I'M
possible to perform, and when the!
are finished one doubts the testimony
of his own senses.
