Cir- ctis and the results are that th.e 100th an- nual tour is leaving a great name for itself. The program is very well arranged and consists of a combination of animal and ctr- cos acts, that are put on with plenty of pep and speed and from the time that Di- rector Hauser blows his whistle for the start to the last act, everything works like clock work. The show opens with a spectacle "Peter Pan in Animal Land" in which the entire company and most all the animals and horses take part. Miss Francois Julian Rodgers b the prima donna and mounted on one of the largest elephants and gowned in a gorgeous custtmie she makes a very beautiful picture and her voice is excellent and can be heard at either end of the big top. The trained wild animal program is hraded by Peter Womble Taylor, one of the country's greatest trainers, presenting a mixed gronp of lions, tigers, etc. in a veiy thrilling act, every one of the animals being a fighter. There arc also very well trained groups of polar bears, leopards, and pumas, twsidcs the riding lions and tigers. The Moralb Family of artists do several dlfficnlt and most interesting feats which include besides their upside down, trapeze acts, wirev etc Dainty little Tetu is a very graceful wire walker and always receives a good luad. The Rudy Rudypoff prindpal comedy riding act never bib to score big, there are four people and four beautiful horses in the act and the riding and comedy are wen blended. In the big dancing horse Miss Ola Dar- ragh presents in masterful horsemanship, Texas Tommy and. the champion high jumper Black Ace. Miss LeVeme Hauser seated in the old time side saddle does some of the most daring feats with perfect grace and ease. The Cheerful Gardeners presented the John Robinson trained herds of both large and baby elephants in difficult and interest- ing tricks, the little fellows doing their stunts just like the big ones. There are several good clown numbers including the clown band and walk-a- ronnd, Abe Goldstein the clown cop works the Hippodrome track before the show starts and gets plenty of laughs escorting the ladies ooth old and yoimg to their seats and also clowns for the feature acts. The foot ball horses always score very big kicking the large ball to the top of die reserve seats repeatedly, and of course the monkeys on the trapeze ^et their share of applause, besides the trained pigs, goats, dogs, etc. The big dandmK horse number with sev- eral very good dancers always goes over very big and is followed by the hunting number.
