Cuba, on Wednesday, Nov, 7, to tbe largest crowd of any previous season. 7'fti* JIuvantt Daily Telegraph speaks of,the opening as follows; "Publllone's Circus opened st the National lost night to one of tbe largest audiences ever seen la the thea- tre. There was not a single vacant seat, and hundreds were standing. Quite a good crowd ■ of Americans were n-retjent la the stalls and botes. THght on the minute of 8.30 o'clock ihe band played the overture, and, as cus- tomary . with Publllone's well managed shown, there ' was no waiting between the acts to cause any discomfort. The perform- ance opened with, a double trapeze act by the Maglaleys, assisted by a dog, whose duties pleased the audience, as did the pair on the trapeze. The next act was the St. Leons, acrobatic pcrformera. This family Is welt known In Cuba and met with a gen erous reception. Tbe next on the pro gramme was n revolving ladder, manlpu Isted by tae Brothers Lanoles In such a wav as to ma'-te the nudlencu ask for more. The three dogs of Colonel Hcbultz did some new "stunts for Cuba- The Burtlnos fin- ished the first part and it wns an exceed- ingly pretty act, deserving the generous ap- plause accorded them and the curtain recalls. This act Is entirely new to Cuba and was thoroughly enjoyed. It Is one of the best imported by Publllcncs. The second part opened with the Brothers Lanoles in a very comic bar act, displaying eglllty of the finest kind. The next on the programme was a riding set by Elsie Ban Leon, tbe prettiest bareback rider ever seen in Cuba. Then fol- lowed the clowns, Plto aud Chocolate, with- out whom a Publllon^ clrcns could not exist, both of them being favorites with the vast audience. The Griff Brothers were the next on tbe bill nnd showed to the audience some novel "strong features." The last on the pro- gramme,' and one ot the finest acts In the world, was the trained elephanta of Capt. and Mrs. Peter Harlow. What these huge beasts know would take a large book to tell. Pubillones has brought a fine show to town, nnd certainly deserves both credit and a good ratronuge.*' In addition to the above. Mr. *iiblllonea has the following acts la reserve at Havana, which wilt onen from time to time: Mile.
