tunately, however, for their faith In

tunity at long intervals OF proving that
there arc professional and business men
Who can readily mako good their pro-
tensions and prove that they would scorn
to utter O boast which they were un-
able TO substantiate. Montgomery
Queen, the great circus and menagerie
proprietor, furnishes m interesting case
In point. Sceptics. who are dogmatic

thcy knew better they would sneer less,
aud be entitled 10 more respect. The
rank and intellect Of every place which
Montgomery Queen has visited have
borne testimony to the gsnuineness OF
his claims to having the best trained
horses, the most accomplished riders,
ami finest collection Of wild beasts ever
brought under one management. With
an enterprise that Is almost incredible,
the vast animal world has been ex.
plored for tho m~cnagorio. Special
agents have been sent TO the jungles OF
India, the wilds Of Africa, and the I'M
approachable parts Of Asia for the rare
est living specimens OF tho geological
kingdom, and the result Ia that Mr..
Queen has a collection OF animals which
are the wonder and admiration Of every
ono who sees them. His elephant is a
giant, and not o pigmy a. most show
elephants are; his lions realize all the
poetry Of tradition regarding the mon
arch Of tho forest; his h~ogapotamus can
only DO regarded a. an ambitious freak
Of nature which has. perhaps, never
been repeated on account OF its super
lative ugliness. All the animals, In
fact, are living wonders. and furnish
some highly instructive lessons In
natural history.
