The act which features Mt:- Bird
Mi 11m an. the queen of the wire, is
easily one of the most n.ttrn ctive on
the bill and Miss Millman easily dem
onstrates that she is in reality the
"queen of the wire." Next in order
comes the two acts of Mine. Ella
Bradna, the world famous equestrien
ne, who is one of the leading etars of
the Barnum and Bailey and Ringling
Bros, communed shows. In the first
h alf of th e pr ogr a m Mme. Bradna
entertains with a 'decided novelty
with a comedy circus. After her own
portion of the act with her educated
horse, she has a standing offer of $50
to anyone who can ride her bucking
donkey or the revolving table. The
latter is easily mastered by a pony
and a dog who keep their feet despite
the revolutions.
Hillary Long, the king of headbal
ancera, closes the show with a "slide
for life" in which he slides on a rope
from the. roof to the floor of the b:g
hall standing on his head. He also
does some clever work on a swinging
trapeze in an invented position. The
Casinos, famous clowns furnish much
of.'tfce amusement and .the other fea
tures .ar-e all of a. similar type to the
balance of the big program. It can
be safely said that Bridgeport has
never before ser-n a simi lar aggrega
tion of hea dliners and stars of the
circus world under one roof and it is
more than probable that the oppor
tunity will never again be give
them.
