Eph Thompson’s Elephants

Type:
The quartet of mammoths make up one of the most striking and swiftly moving animal acts in vaudeville. Feature tricks follow each other in a rapidly moving and well varied succession.
The big beasts are better behaved and more tractable than a troupe of terriers. This may not sound particularly remarkable to one familiar with the habits of animals in training, but the effect of the elephants' quick obedience to the spoken command, has a distinct effect upon spectators.
