BARNES WILD ANIMAL
 CIRCUS COMING SOON

The big, sensational, thrilling number on the program presented by the Barnes Wild Animal Circus, is a lion act, in which twenty-four full grown, jungle bred African lions are assembled.
 'The twenty-four man eaters are turned loose at one time in the big steel barred arena in the center of the tent, one lone trainer in their midst. Herr Louie Roth is the mana trainer of lions of inter- national fame. and the control he exercises over the ferocious beasts is certainly remarkable.
 Crowding his way among them, armed only with small whip, he proceeds to put the animals thru a number of different poses and pyr- amids: mounts one of the animals on high pedestal and then strad- dles the snarling animals back; feeds another raw meat from his naked lips; places his head in a lions mouth; arranges the entire lot in great pile on the floor and lies on the top-most one.
 Should anyone attending the show not desire to witness the many thrilling wild animal acts, they can turn their attention to the features in which large troupes of dogs,
