reversing his position. Maynard prov ed himself very popular by ridin): buekjumpers in both American
and Australian saddles. Thorpe M'Conville, junT., showed Mb versatility by ap pearing in a trick and
fancy rope spinniug act with Kid M'Lcod. Tex Bailey's posing dogs and pony receiv ed well-merited
