well filled tent on the Conant street
grounds Yesterday afternoon and eve
ming and the big crowds were thorough
" satisfied that they had gotten their
moneys worth.
There were "a big acts, all of which
found favor. There were pony drills,
performing hons, trained seals, ele-
plants, acrobats, performing bears,
bareback riders and wire walkers, and
they all deserved the applause that was
accorded them.
The elephants, as is usually the case
were objects of interest and the tricks
that they performed with Walter Allen
and two assistants showed remarkable
intelligence. Capt. Wesley's seals were
a novelty.
Another act which furnished thrills
was by Capt. Hagen, who put five
lions through numerous stunts, not
without danger. One of the beasts had
a spring that carried HIM to the top of
the cage. At Oakland May End, 1916.
