ELEPHANT MAN
TALKS PEANUTS

It's 4 good thing they had q $l2,-
600, 900 peanut crop in Texas this year,
said the boss bull man of Howe's
burg's Trained Wild Animals, coming
to Ell Centre, Monday, April 4, for
these durn elephants will east just
abount that amount of goobers before
the long haul back to winter quar-
ters. Every time that ninth bull
over here hears whistle he thinks
it's a peanut stand. When the o'clock
goes | have to plead with him to keep
from walkin' away with the menagerie
top. And that after he's eaten all the
peanuts that several thousand people
have fed him before and after the
matinee"
Doesn't it slow up their perform
ance, eating all these peanuts ?" the
bull man was asked. "Eatin' never
slowed any of these three herds, es-
peeially eatin' COOLERS. The young
ones and the old ones are alike when
it comes to the peanuts. Sack after
sack as the crowds pour by and never
bull that has enough. There was
once an elephant that lived in captivity
to the fairly ripe old age of 130. They
say the sick room was stacked with
gunny sacks of peanuts during the last
illness and that the poor old pachy-
derm wrapped his trunk around three
sacks as he died.
you take those cats-the lions,
tigers, leopards, panthers, jaguars,
the gorillas, the balloons, the hippo
those freak beasts in that line of cages
across the tenth and even the camels,
the bison, the gnu and all of 'em--
WELL eatin' makes 'em loggy, but the
bulls can eat their weights in goob-
ers and dance like Pavlowa. Watch
Mona Thompson and the other women
trainers give 'em the word to do the
Death of the Swan dance in the rings
today. They'll be ehockfull O. those
peanuts, but they will float to the
music---simply float"

REALISTIC SCENES
IN CLASSIC PLAY

Special attention has been given in
j. w. Brownlees production of Stet-
sons Uncle Toms Cabin" which will
play here at the Palace Theater on
Tuesday evening, to make the big
scenes of the old stage classic realistic
In these days of the motion picture
the old-time handling of these scenes
would fall short of what they were in
an earlier period of our stage, and
therefore only the best stage mechan-
les could produce the desired results
nowadays. The company coming here
carries special scenery for these pur-
poses. Eliza is shown crossing the
ice, with the bloodhound-real Cuban
man-trailers-in pursuit. All the
other big scenes are faithfully repro
duced. The company is said to be an
entirely competent one, and the var
ious touches that go to make "Uncle
Toms Cabin what it is-the planta-
ton singers and dancers and musi-
cians-are all there. There will be a
street parade with band, chariots,
floats, ponies, dogs and novelties
Seats no won sale at Dunaway's drug

Lionel Barrymore is the star of "The
Devils Garden" which will be the
screen attraction at the Topic Theater
today. Playing opposite the famous
actor in the leading feminine role is
Doris Rankin, who in private life is
Mrs. Lionel Barrymore, and who, like
her illustrious husband and other mem
bers of the Barrymore family, won an
enviable reputation on the stage before
going TO the screen. Other members
of the cast are such well known artists
as H. Cooper Cliffe and Mae McAvoy.
The picture is an adaptation of w. b.
MaXwell's widely read novel of the
same name. 1t was produced by Whit
