Uany features, said to be new and
excellent, will be pre^nted this year
by the Carl Hagenbeck-Wallace Cir
cus, which vill! exhibit in Burlington,
Siiturday, Novemljer 6th. According
tp the advance information the act of
Mme. Bedini with her tangoing horses
is one of tile most enjoyable of the
entire bill, tiecause it shows the pos
sibilities in the education of a horse,
which appears to have ilmost human
5eii.se. This woman has taught her
horses many new steps in their danc
ing act. Nearly four hundred per-
fijrmei's are on tVie bill and they per
form their acts on the ground, on a L45r.tion, 0^:t. 2«.—Serbiai: troops
