That is all he needs for his perfor
mers are flciia not the common ev

salaried artists.
Fleas at this time of the year a.v
somewhat out of season. The sum
mer is when they are nt their best
peek-a-boo waists and open work
stockings ofering but slight resis
tance. To a reporter who interviewed hiu
Inst night, Mr. Alonzo Sloan, the
showman was somewhat reticent. II
preferred Mo talk "Medford" which
lie said"impre..scd him as bein
"some town."
"Although I ha.ve some (wo hun
dred fleas" he said at last, "they an?
of course, not nil stars, some of their
being only understudies taking then
first lessons in the dramatic art. IV
perfect a flea performer takes a ver
long time as first he must ho brokei
of jumping, a habit which they all
unfortunately, inherit.
This is accomplished by placing r
loop of the finest gold wire about
their necks, the idea being to him
'. him so weighted down at the front
end that, when he tries to spring
he merely turns a hand-flip. T
break a flea of jumping takes about
fifteen months. The flens I use, aiv
the German, or human, flens. Tlieii
average life is about 20 years anf
they are so strictly "human" that
no amount of persuasion will induce
one to eat dog. They multiply verj
rapidly, but I never can gather up
the courage to kill them, so, when
they look like they are .going to be
come excess baggage, 1 just turn a
t'ow thousand loose wherever 1 hap
pen to be.
"In my show the star attraction"
is the hailet. This consists of twentv
five specially selected animals who
dance Oriental dances in perfect
unison and accord. It .takes about
an hour and a half to dress the fleas
for this act in the morning so we
leave them dressed all day. They are
dressed by means of a microscope
and a pair of tweezers."
