ELEPHANT BALL GAME Of the many stunt# performed by the Sparks Circus herd of elephants the one that probably gets the most appreciation is the game of baseball played by these mighty and unwieldy pachyderms. Every play is gone through with in the most ludicrous manner, and the laughs furnished by this -number will remain as a pleasant remembrance of the circus.

! Illi tot - /* >lß,lllll—l ■■■■■■aauammuuuwawtouuuu■■■»• n All the accessories—pitcher, batter, catcher, umpire, fielders and their gloves, masks, bats and uniforms—are present, and Big Mary m the roll of batter seldom misses a home-run swat, and has thus « s^bll^® d ® .400 mark batting record for herself. Running the 'bases ana the slide to home plate never fail-to bring forth rounds of applause and laughter from the audience. Another funny situation is when the pitcher has two strikes on “Big Mary,” he and the catcher get into an animated argument over the next ball to be served by the pitcher and trumpet into each others ears. This little piece of by-play always meets with the instant approval of the audience and adds greatly to the already funny number. This act was presented tb New York City’s delighted millions last winter and came in for -more favorable newspaper comments than any animal act-seen there in recent years. This feature is positively on the program of the Sparks World Fwnvniis Shows, which are billed so exhibit here next Saturday, Aug. 17th.
