Circus Close By

Without doubt the most intelli-
gent and versatile pachyderms ever
seen in America are the score of
elephants with the Wheeler Bros.
Shows, which will exhibit here Fri
day, September 4. Their field of
usefulness is not confined to pag-
eantry and performances, though
they are especially prominent in
these dual roles. No elephant bear
ing i'll state Indian princes or pot
entates was ever more gorgeously
robed and bedecked than these cir
Gus elephants in the Wheeler Bros.
street parade. Cloths of gold-fn-
ger velvet embroidered with silver
thread and covered with brilliant
ornaments, reach to the ground on
either side, leaving only the heads
of the ponderous beasts exposed.
On their backs are immense how
dahs, designed after the most orna-
mental of those used by East In
dian dignitaries in the great dur
bar. The style Of architecture is
extremely oriental mere is extrav-
agant use Of gold leaf and jewels
and the furnishings are of the cos
test silks and satins. In the how
dahs the elephant trainers are seat
ed garbed in regal splendor, repre-
senting oriental potentates.
At the performance in the arenic
displays the elephants are divided
in companies filling the three rings,
giving a forceful illustration of
man s mastery over the biggest
brutes Of the animal kingdom.
These modern mastadons interpret
intricate drills, the latest terpsi-
chorean triumphs, including the
famous Tango dance, form noun
famous pyramids and elephantine
tableaux, play provoking pranks
and in many other ways show as
tonishing agility and surprising
sagacity.
1t is a noteworthy fact, however,
that as working elephants this
Wheeler Bros. group Of pachyderms
excel. Trained and broken as beasts
OF burden on the public works of
Ceylon, they have not been permit
ted to forget their earlier teachings.
Driven by their trainers, they carry
IN their trunks the heaviest tent
poles without apparent effort. The
primitive method of pushing wag-
ons with their heads rs sometimes
resorted to by them, or with ropes
in their mouths they easily pull the
largest trucks and dens, moving
them with ease, though they may
be hub deep in the mud. At feeding
time the elephants are sometimes
led to the hay pile outside the tent.
Each animal with his trunk picks
up hundred pound bale and car
ries it into the menagerie tent. With
stamp of the foot they break the
binding wire and proceed to MUNICH
the meal they have thus prepared.
AS extra pay for their efforts they
are given handfuls of peanuts and
choice dainties that would delight
the average child. They relish these
with a gusto highly epicurean and
show their gratitude by loud trum-
petings. Such interesting sights as
these are to be seen daily on the
show grounds Of the Wheeler Bros.
Shows.
Among this famous herd may be
seen Tango" earth s largest liv-
ing animal.
