PKOF. GENTRY'S WONDERFUL
TRAINED ANIMALS.
Prof. Gentrv's famous Pony and Dog
Show, that bus visited every city and town of
importance in the United St?tes and Canada
ia recent years and has altars surprised and
delighted the largest aud^encps with !he mar?
velous featj performed hy ihe trained ponies,
dogs and monkeys, pave * perfornrr;*;re
in the city Friday, Ncverarer 21. Tb"? street
parade which w*s given at lo 30 in th* morn?
ing W95 bot a foretaste of the reilly wonder?
ful performance at 2 30 o'clock. It is con
.idered remarkable when men or vrorren
execute difficult fea'8 in an ordinary cireijs,
but whetj the animals trair.ed by Prof Gen
try are ssen, the unanimous verdict is that
the pcrforciar.ee is little short of marvelous.
Those who did not attend the performance
today should by a!i means see the exhibition
that begins at S o'eiock thi3 evening. There
There are no more intelligent or better train?
ed animils in tba world, and those who cues
see them never doubt that some animals, at
least, are endowed with almost human intel?
ligence.
The perforcjHrce is orened by a drill of
twelve of the mos: beautiful little pomps
ever seen in a group and they are so tr el 1
trained that ont little coaching from their
ring master is needed.
Tbe dogs, too numerous to describo in
detail, are carried through a series of per
j formances that will interest apy child and
the larger part cf adults.
In every circus there ls one or more hare
bsck riders, who attract their share of at?
tention, and to say that all cf the bareback
riders traveling is close!v rivaled by one of
Gentry's does would at first be put dowe, as
folly,this though is an absolute fact, A blsck
pony is brought into the ring with a pad
on its back and on thi9 a ?mail colly mounts,
unassisted and rides around the ring at the
ponj's best pace.
Then the dog leaps from the back cf the
small horse and tbe pad being removed tfce
two rice around the neg side by side at a
dead run, when suddenly the dog wno a
graceful spring nounts the pony's bareoack
again, maintains its position and completes
its ride, seeming to enjsy it to the full extent
of which a dumb animal is capable.
The two trained baby elephants, Pinto and
Satan, are veritable wonders in their per?
forming.
