The Queer Creature Recently Exhibited In
Georgia Town.
According to a Thomasville (Gal CORE
spondent there is now on exhibition at the
old Allen House, on Jackson street, man
aztec or sea cow. Captain ". H SQuires,
who exhibits this queer animal, said to a
reporter: This cow is ten feet long and
weighs 1000 pounds. lis tail is twenty
inches across. We caught il in the inlet
TO the st. Lucie river, which drains the
everglades of Florida. We used in the
capture seine three hundred feet long,
made of inch rope. This is a very small cow.
They grow from fifteen to tweuty-four feet
long, and weigh from ten thousand TO fifty
thousand pounds. They IRE very powerful,
and often break the strong rope of seine
ike spool cotton thread. We attempted to
net one fifteen feet long just before we
caught this one, and it tore our seine to
pieces. Their bones are like ivory. and
worth one dollar ponnd. The meat in the
markets OF Havana is considered a delicscy,
and sells at fifteen to twenty five cents per
pound. There is but one live manatee cow
on exhibition In this country besides this
one. It is at Jacksonville, Fla There was
one, known as Old Columbus, at the Zoolog-
icsl Gardens in Cincinnati, but they killed
