FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1925 WILD ANIMALS TONOLD STAGE HERE MAY 14TH Coming of Lee Brothers Show to be Major Tent Event Lee Bros. Wild Animal exhibition surpasses anything of the kind ever attempted. From their immens herds of elephants they present two large groups in separate ring per- formances, the features of which must be seen to he appreciated. The huge beasts move with incredible speed and thoroughly enjoy the un- natural things they are called upon to do. They vlay at mimic war, dance dreamy waltzes, lively two steps and stately minuets, humor* ously enact farcial skits, stand on their heads and balance their pon- derous bodies with all the skill of human performers. They also play musical instruments with a mar- velous result of tuneful tone, Their trainer claims the elephant the most Intelligent, faithful and useful of all wild animals, and avers with impressive solemnity that the monster beasts have a language, as well as degree of human understand- ings which he is. able to translate, and thereby get into closer sympathy with bis charges. The wonderful things they do at his suggestion give a color of probability to his claim. It is the sight of a lifetime to see these great. herds of elephants in oné big company. The elephants are merely one of the big animal features. The most exciting {s that of the trained lions, who do some wonderful feats, edu- cated tigers in wonderful stunts, leopards who seem to act like cats, pumas, always fighting, but doing some wonderful feats, . trained cameis, a new and almost impossible feat, all kinds of domestic animals and a delightful spectacle with beau- tiful costumes, singing, dancing, and a most surprising array ~ of trained animals of all descriptions. It will be unfortunate to miss this wonderful performance. “Lee Bros. Wild Animal show will exhibit in Casper, Thursday, May 14th, giving two performances at 2 nd 8 p. m., rain or shine. DODGE ESTATE TAX IS FACING COURT BATTLE DETROIT, Mich., Associated Press).—The Detroit Board of Assessors has fixed a taxable valuation of $45,000,00- on the money that accrued to the John F. Dodge estate as its share in the sale of Dodge Brothers Inc, The tax, against which representatives of the trustees were to make formal protest late today, would amount to approximately $900,000. The assessors based their action on the ground that the trustees of the estate are residents of Detroit and that their personal property is subject to city taxes, ‘The Horace BE. Dodge estate was not assessed inasmuch as its trus- tees are not residents of this city. Heretofore, the city of Detroit has received no taxes. on Dodge Brothers, Inc., because the factorles are located in. Hamtramck, a sub: urb. The assessors, however, have taken the view that the John F. Dodge estate's share of the, sale price now has come under their jurisdiction.

Padlocks are rapidly mopping up Hquor that seeped ashore before the blockade. One development expected to be helpful in dry law enforcement was the announcement that: persons who informed the government of viola a meeting in Victoria, B. C., speak- ers against rum row was violating the Washington copference agreement for Imitation of naval armament. More than 60 boats, large and small, are now patrolling rum row. The fleet is directed by wireless from Washington and Is aided by a detail of 13 airplanes, Reserve boats are ready to steam out to sea at a moment's notice tn case of emergencies.
