Carl Emmy's Pets are making a big
hit at the Garrick Theatre this week.
They comprise an interesting collec-
tion of little dogs, which appear to
understand everything that is said to
them, and TO appreciate the applause
bestowed upon them just as much as
human beings They go through d
lot Of novel and difficult stunts, the
act concluding with spectacular
electric display, in which the dogs
arc the chief factors. They strike
the fancy not only of the little folks,
who naturally like pet dogs, but also
grown persons. who cannot help be-
