REAL CIRCUS SEEN IN RIVER
STREET GROUNDS.
The Haverhill. Mass. Herald.

Bright and clean and overlooking
with genuine acts of worthwhile quail
ity, La Tena's Big Wild Animal Circus
played to capacity crowds her, yester-
day, pleasing young and old alike, with
its excellent program of novel numbers,
more than one of which would have
done credit to a much more preten-
tious show. Everything about the
show was clean and well regulated, the
costuming and staging of the various
acts was beyond reproach and the en-
tire outfit proved one of even quality
and considerable merit
1t was Haverhll's second taste of
circus entertainment this season and
the show offered by the La Tena out
fit was so far in advance of that given
here by Wheeler Bros. last week that
no comparison is possible. Both in the
quality of the program and in the show,
La Tena's circus proved a genuine
credit to the show business as "a whole.
From the opening parade to the
final number there was not dull mo-
ment for somewhere, either in the ring
on the stage or within the big steel
animal arena, an act worthy of notice
was in progress. A feature that
proved well worth the price of admis-
sion alone was provided by Wesley 5
seals, an aggregation of trained ami
mails that would be hard to equal any
where. They play ball, play in a band
and one old fellow actually succeeds in
walking a tight rope unaided. In
vaudeville, Wesley's seals would be
termed a big time act, as a circus at
traction the number has few equals.
Other animal acts worthy of more
than passing notice were Walter Aller
and his performing elephants, Buck
mans Bears and last, but by no means
least, Marguerite's lions. A fancy
riding act, featuring a tango on horse
back, savored of the Barnum anC
Bailey show and was done with grace
and ability by two clever equestrian
performers The program also in
cluded a very clever troupe of wire
walkers who did many novel tricks anC
gifted family of contortionists be
sides number Of aerial performers o
merit. Trained dogs, a small army o
clowns and a host of other attraction
added the necessary variety and all il
all it was very fine entertainment.

Gerber. the delightful little leading
lady Of the White Star Feature Co.
Miss Gerber gives a most convincing
impersonation of the title role. Her
nortrayal of the capricious, self-cen-
tered woman upon whose misdeeds
the story hinges, is at all times con-
sistent and satisfying. while in her
big scenes she displays emotional
powers never surpassed in the history
of the silent drama.
The plot Of this wonderful picture
is: A selfish and 'axtravagant woman,
q husband upright and honorable, and
q pair of youthful lovers. These are
the characters about whom a COM

the lives of these human elements
come nigh unto wreck and ruin is told
in one of tb., most fascinating film
plays ever produced.
In addition to this wonderful three
reel feature. two screaming comedies
featuring Ford Sterling. the king or
