STARVATION IN PARIs-EA1,No MENA-
GERlE.-No more Startling rlcsagc Of the
f mine which threatens Paris could he fur
nshcd than the London telegram of the 18th,
which announced that the rnrisans began
on the 7th instant to slaughter and eat the
flesh of the different animals in the Jardin
dcs Plantcs 1t was added that "thc meat
rates high in the market. Yak sold at thirty
francs per pound. The monkeys were to &c
killed and eaten during the next ensuing
week" Long before the war scientific men
in Paris had partially succeeded in populariz-
ing horse meat as an article of food Bnt
none of them had dreamed of the approaching
necessity of recommending yak, or anything
else to be found at Paris only in the mcnngc-
riof the Jardin dcs Pantes. This menagerie
is indeed ubundanty supplied with animals.
II is one of the most extensive in the world
Established in 1904, it hns become an impor
tant addition to the attractions of tile Garden,
which itself dates from tho reign of Louis
XIII. The various departments of the men
agcrie nro enclosed by iron raiiugs Nonh's
ark could not have been more crowded with
animal and reptile life. Here are all kinds
Of poultry, geese and swans; crocodirs, ALT
gators, lizards, boa constructors, buiraiocs. H..
ons, bears, elephants, camels, cumclupurd,,
hycnns, panthcrs, Bengal tigers and nnuucr-
able monkeys. In the good old days of peace
the visitor was directed to urply to NJ. 10 Di.
rcctcur du Jurdin dcs P!untcs for ticket to
witness the feeding of the animals but now
that dire war has reduced the parisiaus to feed
upon them, differently worded ticket will
be required. No doubt Partisan cookery will
be equal to the emergencies, but the partisan
restaurants will need und strange bills
of fare. IN. Y. UeraM tg
