CIRCUS HAS FIVE BABIES liesides the now famous new-born baby elephant, the only one ever bred and born in captivity, the Sells- Flo to Circus has what you might call a whole flock of babies with it this year. Of course, every self-respecting show must have a baby, but it is not often that the visito rto the menagerie finds as many as five little tigers, six baby lions, three small bears, a juvenile camel, and last but not least a babv zebu, the first probably ever seen in a menagerie in this country. Added to these is a baby hi'ppotatmis, also three baby elephants, the oldest of which is but 17 months old. Of this won derful collection the baby zebu will, no doubt, attract the greater portion of attention by reason of its rareity. The zebus attain their gicatest de velopment in India, but the breed is found eastward to Japan and west ward to the Nigre. All the sculptors of Elephanta, which am of th highest antiquity, represent these cattle. They are used in many parts of India as beasts of burden, and occasionally for riding, being venerated by the Hin doos, who consider it a si :i to .slaugh ter them, although they do not ob The white zebu bulls, one of which ject to working them, by the way is owned by the Sells Floto Circus, are held particularly sacred by the Hindoos. They are branded by the image of Siva, relieved from all labor and allowed to wander at their will, levying contributions on the stalls and bazaars without let or hindrance. The Sells-Floto Circus will arrive here on Tuesday, May 28. The Oregon Pioneer Asociation will meet in Portland June 20. The annual address will be given by Rob ert G. Smith of Grants Pass, demo cratic nominee for congressman of this district. At the annual camp fire, kloshe tum-tum, hi-yu wa-wa. hy-as, ahn-kut-ti il-li-hee, Cyrus II.
