fed. A large glass tank of clear water
occupies one end of the room, and into
this precisely at noon an attendant
throws a handful of tiny fish, a few of
them still living. Then the side of an
adjoining cage is removed, and down
plunge the penguins to seize their prey,
It must be confessed that their table
manners are not fine. They literally
gobble fish after fish, and then hnrl
themselves about in the water, evidently
delighted with their bath.
Another : bird a slender, graceful
creature, familiarly called a "darter''
is admitted alone to the tank, and his
motions in eating his fish dinner are
wonderful to see. He sweeps through
the water like an arrow, and impaling
each fish npon his bill lifts his head,
and in some mysterious and lightning-
like manner catches the victim and
swallows it.
THE BIDS ON THJB ELEPHANTS.
Later in the afternoon the pelicans are
fed in the little yard where they strut
solemnly all day long. A small pond
occupies its center, and into this bits of
fish are thrown, in search' of which the
birds rush pell mell, covering the water
with a confusion of gigantic waving
wings. As tne attendant approacnes to
carry out this pleasing ceremony, the
birds awaken from their drowsy calm,
and it is a sight not soon to be forgotten
if one can watch a stately old pelican
lift Ilia wings and begin an awkward
curveting in token of his joy.
In the bear pit, a deep and well lighted
inclosure, dwell two bears, who are un
wieldy with the fatness produced by
many buns. They have been so per
sistently fed by visitors that when one
looks over the railing his bearship calm
lv rises, holds out two entreating fore
paws and sits in pleased anticipation ol
a feast.
He catches bits of bun in bis mouth
with the unerring skill given by long
practice, and will even climb the pole in
the center of the pit, u one will but noia
a bun over it suspended from a stick.
"But how will he know I want him to
climb?" said a little girl, who had just
been provided with this plummy bribe,
Just hold it near tho pole where he
can get it," said an attendant, "and hell
do the rest. He knows as much as we
do."
So, heavily and with much panting.
the awkward creature mounts his pole,
seizes the bun, and descends to munch it
in content.
The crowning joy of all perhaps for
little visitors is that of riding the ele
phants, which, provided with great sad
dles, large enongh for a dozen people,
take their load of shrieking, laughing
children and go lumbering off down the
walks, waving their trunks this side and
that in tho hope of receiving a stray tit
bit from the neighboring crowd.
FEEDING THE LIONS.
Later in the day comes one great
event, to which even the most serious
grown person must be interested. At
half past 4 the lions are fed! Long
before the time visitors begin to pour
into the building where, in large cages
against the wall, lions, tigers and leop
ards are pacing restlessly np and down.
The creatures themselves need no
watches to tell them dinner time is near.
At the appointed moment a man en
ters, pushing a barrow of bleeding meat.
and wheels it past the cages to the very
end of the room. At the smell and
sight pandemonium breaks loose. - One
terrible roar, made by many voices in
awful concord, fills the place. At the
last cage the barrow stops, a bar is
thrown back, and two large pieces of
meat are thrown in. The lion seizes them
in his paws and lies contentedly down,
to gnaw and lick them with the delib
eration of a well fed animal
So the programme goes on, until one
voice after another is silenced and the
barrow is empty. One very interesting
fact is always to be observed. The
a-nimaia do not, on receiving their first
piece of meat, retire to devonr it; they
wait for the second and then turn away
with both held securely m their paws.
They have evidently learned how much
to expect and can count up to that
number.
Indeed the delights of the Zoo are
almost inexaustible to animal loving
children. There is the monkey house,
where those grave, wrinkled, half hu
man creatures sit picking fleas from
each other with an air of funny absorp
tion. There is the chimpanzee "Sally,
who will count five for her keeper by
passing him the renuiaito number of
straws, and who, at request, will eat
with her fingers, as she "used to do,'
and then with a fork, an she does now
that she is civilized. "Queer old Sally,
as one little boy wud, and happy children
who can see ber! outh a Companion.

Tho Pekin Gazette contains a curious ;
memorial from the viceroy of Canton re-
specting 103 7f-centimeter guns manu
factured by Krupp on the order of Chang
Chihtung, the late viceroy of the prov
ince. The viceroy says the guns are
excellent in every respect, but they do
not suit the fortifications for which they
were intended. The damp climate of
the province and the white ants, "which
eat anything and everything," would
destroy them; the district is so hilly that
they could not be moved, the coast is
composed of wet Band, in which the
wheels would get fixed immediately; the
guns are too long for the embankment
on which they were to be placed and
could not be turned around; there are no
horses in the province to drag them, and
if there were there is no forage for them;
finally, the horses in the adjacent prov
inces are so small that if they were im
ported they could not drag such heavy
guns. The obstacles being so numerous
and insurmountable, the memorialist
asks that he may be allowed to transfer
the guns to his brother, Li Hung Chang,
for use in the north, payment to be made
for them when he can. Should be re
ceive any money from his brother on
this account, the memorialist promises
to report the fact. The emperor author
ires this course to be followed.

This was the dire predicament in

was placed, and it was only due to her
cool judgment and calm presence or
mind that she was saved' from death.

trestle which extends from Cedar street
to beyond Line, she was run down by an
express train, the engineer of which,
Dickson, was trying to enter tne Union

I would respectfully inform the pub
lic that I have been able to procure a
pretty fair outfit for raising or moving
houses, and am' willing to do that kind
of work at reasonable figures. But I do
wish it distinctly understood that, after
looking at a job, I am to be the sole
judge of the price to be set upon the
work that I am to undertake, or may do.
If there is any person who may think
that there is big money to be made at
house moving in The Dalles, by doing
work for less than I can do it, I would
advise v him to prepare himself, by buy
ing tools, and reap some of the rich har
vest. In conclusion I will say that if I
am called upon to do any workin my
line, I shall endeavor, in the future, as
in the past, to give entire satisfaction in
all reepecta to my employer. r
