alone since the creation of the universe.

The biggest outdoor animated amusement
exhibit extant or known, either ancient

noblest mechanism, too natural and colossal

the primitive horsemen of the world, and

men of all nationalities and races in pages
of passing history, genuine participants,
forming an ethnological study, an equestrian
revelation. The Biblical Oriental,

Arab, the European, from the Magyar
of Hungary to the Nomad of Russia's
steppes, including selected cavalry; representatives
of the grand armies of England,
France, Germany, Italy, Russia, and the
United States, armed, mounted, and
equipped.

The South American Gaucho, Mexican
Ruralie, the Caballero of the Rio Grande,
the red Indian Centaur of the American
plains, the Sioux, Comanche, Pawnee,
Blackfeet, Frontier Girls and Squaws, and
the excelsior combination of the perfect equation,
the Rough Rider of the Prairie, the
now world-renowned American Cowboy,
all in friendly Concours of methods and
skill, forming an eclipse of equestrian exhibitions,
a veritable school, the first time
since Adam of the primitive styles and
general equipment.

All in conjunction with the usual vivid
scenes, battle tableaux, marksmanship and
thrilling episodes in the Indian and pioneer
history of the settlement and civilization
of the American continent since the advent
of Christopher Columbus. An affair
of magnitude second to none in novel enjoyment,
instruction, interest and educative
merit. Note the location. Distribute
