TUE scarcity Of CRATES is illustrated

The scarcity Of CRATES is illustrated
by the death at the London Geological
Gardens of its last specimen. During
the last year there have been only two,
and now these have successfully dis
appeared. The Secretary of the 70
oiogical Society says that ''for the first
time since May "a, 1896, there is no
giraffe to be seen in the Socicty's gar
dcns. Owing to the closure of the
Soudan by the Mahdists, none of these
animals have been imported of late
years, and for the only individual now in
the market ian old female) prohibitive
price is asked. During the past fifty
five years We have had-in the gardens
thirty giraffes, of which seventeen
have been bred and reared there. A
male born on April 22nd, 1886, lived
nearly twenty years in our gardens
These facts prove that this animal lone
of the most extraordinary forms among
recent mammals) is quite fitted for cap
tivIty, and is well worthy Of the ex-
pcnsc. and trouble incurred in its keep. ="
