The Sells-Floto peo ple have several, but one they are most proud of Is "Bon," the baby lilppopotamus. How he happened to e christened "Bon" Is not of any grave consequence. "Bon," you know, Is the French for good perhaps that's the why of it. We don't know whether "Bon" ap preciates hla name, but he answers to k and fills the requirements. "Know his name!" sniffed Alispaw, the animal trainer, the oother day when some guileless stranger in tne crowd wanted to know whether "Bon" was cognizant of the fact, when he was personally addressed. "Know his name? Well, I should say he did. Don't you. 'Bon'?" "Ben" winked one sleepy eye at his keeper, ruffled his porus cuticle and opened his cavernous moutn. "That's the way he has of express ing himself." said his keeper. Almost every time I speak to him he opens his mouth. It's his way of telling you he understands what you're talkii.g about. Oh, he's wise, 'Bon' "Hurt anybody? Oh, I don't know. That depends. Maybe It wouldn't be & good thin for a stranger to go lr.to his cae. He'd probably resent that as an Intrusion on his privacy. But. say. I could go to sleep in Eon's' den and he'd never make a j fu?. We're good friends, you see, ' an : t,i;,.f a.-e mighty sociable with keepers f,'-r. rh-y know thern.

"Tou might naturally suppose that P.ir would klik aealnst anyone feline with Ms J;iws, but he seemed to know Instinctively that the doctor wn there to help him, so when the donor cleaned out a cavity In one of his teeth as well as he could and sprayed a little antiseptic solution into it and plugged up the hole with a f Lt full of amalgum, he never whimpered and kept hla mouth wide open without the slightest urging. it is often said that a person in a state of great excitement or Impati ence "sweats blood," but it isn't gen erally known that there Id one ani mal at least which actually goes through that process under certain conditions. According to the Sells-Floto trainer. the hippopotamus literally "sweats blood" when the temperature is low er than he is used to. Curiously nruirh this fact was first brought to the trainer's attention while pre paring to take the hippo's picture. It was a cold day. and the beast was loath to leave the warm water of his tank. He was prodded and pushed, however, to such an extent that he was finally obliged to face the camera. In a very few moments the keeper discovered that his subject was cov ered with bloody froth, which oozed out of his pores. Fearful that the animal would catch cold, he was al lowed to return to the water without being "snapped", and the pool was Immediately discolored as a result of the bloody excretion. Further Investigation revealed tnat the red fluid was Indeed blood-serum, which was brought to the surface of the animal's thick skin by the cold temperature. Though the hippopotamus Is a very timid animal despite Its huge size and great power. It "sweats blood," not through fear or anger, but from the cold, to which It is not by nature ac customed. The Sells-Floto shows come to Pen dleton on Friday, June 2. It must not be forgotten that this year the I price of admission has been cut in half, a fact which will undoubtedly . tend to make this ever popular at traction x ti 11 more so. NEW LAW BECOME EFFECTIVE TOMORROW Limitations will be placed on the ministers who are licensed to per form marriage ceremonies by a new law passed by the last legislature and which became effective Saturday. The law requires that no minister will be legally permitted to perform a niar rl.itre rpremonv unless he has first registered with the county clerk the necessary evidence that he is a min uter within the meaning of the law. As yet no local ministers have reg istered their credentials, and they cannot legally solemnize a marriage until they have made the necessary record with the county. Another feature of the statute re quires that the person who makes an affidavit as to the legal standing of the persons about to get a marriage license must leave his home address with the clerk who Issues the license. The purpose of this Is tQ allow the county ?lerk to trace a license that has not been returned to him In due time, as required by law, and deter mine if the marriage had become le gally contracted. Another new law which went Into effect Saturday Is that which pro vides that the owner of every farm may have a legal name recorded for his farm and that but one farm of the same name can be recorded In a county. As yet no application has been tnade under this law. After the name of a farm has been recorded, It Is to be known legally thereafter by the name given it ana tho owner can then place the name at his entrance as a mark to distin guish It from any other farm in the county. and Saturday Milton and Walla Wal la cross bats.
