Mother and Her On-prIng.

Since the little hyena up at Central Park has
grown to be agile and sure OF its underpinninG
the mother hyena has developed a play fulness
that no one would expect of that sombre and
unlovely beast. In the morning, before there is
a crowd in the lion house, mother and babe play
together sometimes tor tie better part OF an
hour. The game Ia catch. with intervals of
wrestling and a variety OF episodes not provided
for in tho rules OF catch as catch can.
Fun begins with n sudden assault OF the cub
on the hind legs Of the mother. The latter turns
to punish the babe, and finds the younGster in
the opposite corner OF the cage. Then the
mother rushes with head down at the cub, and
the cub lodges 30 as 10 put the pole in tho mid
die Of the cage between himself aud his mother.
For a time the fun revolyes about the pole, until
perhaps the mother seizes the cub by a leg or an
ear. Then ensueS a scufie, and perhaps the
youngster breaks loose and slips away between
the mothers long fore legs. The mother occa-
sionAliy, however, gets a strong MP on the cubs
