The animal was born In the circus' win ter quarters on January 31 last. No less an authority than Colonel Theo dore Roosuvelt predicted that she would not thrive, citing the cases of giraffes born In zoological garden abroad and which survived only a few days. The undaunted circus Infant, how- j ever, has been one of the lustiest In mates of the travelling zoo since the day she opened her eyes and toddled 1 about the cage. Advance agents prom ise that she will be the cynosure of wondering crowds here. The Wo men's Political union of New York City formally christened her "Miss Suffrage" during the circus engage ment In that city. s' . There ana several adult giraffes in the Barnum & Bailey menagerie. Aside from the circus beasts, the mu nicipal zoos In New York and Cincin nati, O., contain the only giraffes in thu Vnlted States, and under a re cent ruling of the government none may now enter the country. The Bar num & Bnlley management has refus ed a formal offer of $40,000 from the London Geographical society for the snle of Its herd. The giraffe corrals are a popular rendezvous fur tlitj supstitious cirrut folk. They want the boasts to lick their hands. Good luck, they think, is sure to follow. Last evening the Clerks defeated the Railroaders by a score of five to one In a well played game, consider ing the absence of sunlight. Chllders pitched a good game, . although wild at times. Bohnoiikamp was hit' oft? hut the Clerks backed him up with first class fielding, allowing but few hits. ' ' -A-'if Darkness will soon be tlie cause o! stopping, these evening games" un less- some arrangement can be made whereby they can start a half hour earlier. -2SZ23 The third Inning Is often played in the semi-darkness that usu ally precedes the blackness of night with tbe result that it Is always bard to tell just what has happened.
