The FIVE baby lions at the Zoo, says the
Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, are the
most seductive attraction that has ever
been presented to the public there. One of
the largest crowds that ever patronized the
garden in a single day gathered yesterday
to see the babies. They are very cunning
little youngsters, and their antics are very
comical. The two smallest ones of the
group are very affectionate, and take great
pleasure in sticking their little fat paws
out under the bars to have them patted by
the keepers, If stick is shaken at them
they scamper to the other side of the cage
like frightened kittens. At feeding time
they do very funny things. They scram
BILE all over one another to get at the meat.
If one tries to take more than his share the
others go for him in business like way,
and make him surrender some of it,

Head Keeper Byrne has made friends with
the newcomers from the start, and they
stand up in a row like tenpins to have theil
heads rubbed when he comes along. The

ever been exhibited in Philadelphia, and
the two new bears, one of whom is quite a,
much of baby as the little lions, are also
among the star attractions just now.
