views were had with parties familiar with

indication that they think highly of it for
park and geological garden.
A. Z. Robson, the we'll known dealer in
birds and animals, says that & geological
garden ought to be established by all
means. Mr.. Robson estimates that a very
attractive collection consisting of about
10 animals can be purchased for about
$1,000. In fact, he offers to furnish them
for this figure, and in an interview pub-
llshed in an evening paper he has fur.
nished complete list of them and the
prices of each. Mr.. Robson saws that iu.t t
as soon as 1t Is known that geological
garden Is established here there will be
many donations to it and in little wbile
we will have all the animals we want.
Continuing, he says:
"a wrong impression seems to prevail
with many people in regard 10 the proper
location for geological garden. Anum-
Der OF persons seem 10 think that il oup hi
