Higanback Wallace Shows Rpplete
With Great Equestrian Features
The new and wonderful European
arenio features that have been ad-
ded to the I lagenbeck-Wallace
shows, appearing at Purcell are
many and varied, but none stands
out so prominent in brilliant galaxy
of star feature acts as the Tive Tied-
inis imported from Europe by Mr.
Wallace, now seen for the first lime
in America. Those clever people
are acknowledged , the champion
riding experts of Europe, and ap-
pear in what is classed as the only
original epuestrian acts known to
the circus for the past half century.
Their simplest feats are not within
the range of accomplishment of the
j average equestrians, and their most
heroic efforts are the bane of envi-
ous rivals. The Bedinis are noted
for their dexterious individial and
conjunctive performances, which
embraces a series of riding and ath-
letic stunts entirely new to the
American arena, concluding with
simultaneous leaps from the ground
to the backs of horses. The intro-
duction of a comedy element by a
dog—a big Dane—adds zest and
novelty to their performance, and a
certainty of execution with which
all their feats are accomplished
gives a finished touch that is so
frequently lacking inordinary riders.
Tire Bedini quintette are not alone,
however in the Hagenbeck-Wallace
equestrian contingent. There are
many other riders of both stixes
whose names are synoymous with
the beat and greatest in eqtA*strian
achievement and the majority of
whom -are. progeny of illustrious
riding families, thus combining ac-
quired skill with hereditary genius.
They represent every school and
style of riding—bounding, jockey,
somersaulting, hurdle, menage and
race riders and heroic horsemanship
of the frontier.
In the list are Milo. Jeanette,
Winnie Sweeney, Dolly-.JuIian, Olga
Reed, Maud Hayward, Mary Tur-
gineiY, Flora Bedini, Louise Stiek-
ney, Anita Conner, Sadie I.ichtel,
Robert Stickney, Jr., Fred Ledgett,
Joe Lichtel and Everett Hart, all of
whom are artists in their respective
lines and complete the marvelous
equestrian features of the Hagen-
beck-Wallace Shows, which alone
excel in this respect.
