The Maurtius Acclimatization Society
recently handed over six tortoises to this
Government on condition that they should
be placed on Flat Island and taken care or.
The Government accepted the charge, and
they were accordingly placed there about
two months ago. The StorekeeperGenera
(Mr. Schmidt), who is much interested in
them, states that they are completely at
liberty, that they feed themselves. and are
apparently doing well. Only five of
them are Aldabra tortoises; the sixth is
from Madagascar They are all young and
OF comparatively small size. But | may
perhaps mention here that there are seve-
raj specimens OF the Aldabra tortoise be-
sides these. both here and in Seychelles.
There is the well-knOwn large one in the
garden of the ROYAL Artillery mess in Port
Louis. He was here before the English
occupation OF Mauritius in 1910. The
largest circumference Of his shell measures
feet inches. lie stands feet G inches
high. In the Botanical Gardens at Pample-
mousses there are two belonging to Mr..
Cockburn Stewart. who brought them from
Seychelles. They are about ten years old.
The largest circumference OF their shell is
seven feet two inches, and they stand one
foot eight inches high. Mr.. Schmidt tells
me OF very large one belonging to Mr..
Castel, at Riviere Seche, and of very large
pair on the estate "Mon TresOr," near
Mahebourg, belonging to Mr.. Daruty; but
their measurements, which have been pro-
missed me, have not yet received. \ con-
siderable number are kept by various peo-
pie OF Seychelles, including pair at Gov
eminent House, Maize, the female OF which
recently laid eggs, and | am told that many
OF the tOrtoises kept on the Seychelles
Islands frequently breed.

sECTED IN JEFFERSON COLLEGE.
philadelphia Prcssl
Kittie, the seven months old orang-
outang OF the Dime Museum. at Ninth and
Arch streets, curled up and died at al. early
hour yesterday morning. She had been
ailing almost since she arrived in the city,
a week ago. Her maternal parent, seeing
that she was sick, tried to cure her by
beating her about the head and swinging
her around the cage to such an extent that
they had to be separated. She and Tommy
were therefore put in compartment by
themselves, but the devoted brother,
with almost human sagacity, discoy-
cred very soon that she was defence
less, and spent his vacation slapping
her face and hitting her with a stick that
he wrenched from board. When he
tired OF this he would stand her on her
head and hold her by the heels--a proceed
ing that did not conduce to her good
health. Finally she was placed in a small
box by herself, where she lay in little
bed looking very miserable. A physician
visited her daily, administering nauSeous
drugs. which she swallowed with angelic
composure. Her diet consisted almost en-
tirely OF beef tea. Orang-outangs in this
country usually die sooner or later Of con-
sumption, and signs of that disease were
looked for, but not found.
When kittie had breathed her last the
remains were taken to the Jefferson Medi-
cal College and handed over to Professor
Henry c. Chapman for poSt-mortem eXami-
nation. lie discovered quite deep alb
scess on the side and under the surface OF
the tongue, which had caused death. The
heart and lungs were perfectly healthy, re-
sembing those Of child. as did the brain,
which was large and we'll developed. Pro-
lessor Thompson will make use of the brain
in his lecture to the students on Friday
next, tracing its resemblance to that Of Q
human being. II is said that Kittie got the
abscess on her tongue through trying to
talk,
