Here is another trained bull-terrier act which looks as though it was one of the entries of the Nadel stable, which has already delivered about three or four other acts of a like nature. "Jap" is a corking looking white terrier, and he is worked by a man in cowboy costume. The dog runs through a routine of tricks that keeps the audience guessing, and for a time does its work while blindfolded. This bit made a vivid impression on the minds of the audience. Later a number of slight comedy touches in the work of the dog brought laughs. The act is as good a one of its particular type as has yet been shown.
