An Attraction Added to the Collection In the
Animal House Yesterday.


Yesterday morning Mr.. W. ii. Blackburn, the
superintendent OF the zoo, returned from
Anderson, W. Va. in charge Of fine specimen
of the felis leo or African lion. The cub. for il
is but little more than eleven months old. is a
male. and Mr.. Blackburn saws il is the largest
and finest one for Its age he has ever seen. The
youngster has quite romantic history. Last
October. while a small travelling circus was ex-
hitting in Anderson. lioness in the show gave
birth to a cub. The show had neither the
means nor the cOnyeniences TO care for il. and
the little fellow was turned over to Mrs. Su-
san E. Beebout 1T that town. Mrs. Beebout
was delighted with her royal charge, and fos-
tered IT a. one would puppy As the tiny
kitten-like cub grew he developed into such an
innocent. playful pet that he was given unlim-
tied freedom He seemed more like an awk-
ward. fun-loving puppy than member Of the
ROYAL family of the brute creation. He was
especially devoted to his mistress, and followed
her about wherever she went But his in
creasing SIZE and strength. and the fear that
some day his wild nature might assert itself
caused Mrs. BeebOut to reluctantly plan for his
removal She communicated with the zoo here,
and Mr.. Blackburn was directed to go after
him at once. The yOuugster arrived at the
Zoo in q large wooden box. and was quickly
transferred to a cOmmodiOus cage In the main
animal house. Ho was the principal attraction
to the thousands at the zoo yesterday after
noon, and his royal babyship Will, as he play
fully rolls about IN his cage rival even gigantic
