NEW HOSPITAL BUILDINGS.

The money for the proposed improve
ments at the New Haven hospital, for
providing a new kitchen and nurses
dining room, is slowly being raised. The
improvements will cost about $4,000,
and about half this sum will be pro-
vided for The present arrangements
We're provided twenty years ago, when
the hospital had only about one-third
of the present number of inmates. In
consequence the accommodations are
FAR behind what they should be.
When built the new kitchen and din
ing room will be permanent and ar
ranged so as to harmonic with the
proposed new administration building.
The present administration building
was the old hospital proper, and when
the new portions were built it was set
apart for its present uses. A new
building would cost about $4,000, and
would prove more convenient and bet
ter adapted for present uses, but the
hospital society has no money for the
building, but the management are hop
ing the funds will be provided at some
future time

STUDIES FROM NATURE.

Earth, Sea and Air Contribute to Ring
ling Brothers Great Menagerie.
Many surprising and novel geological
features are exhibited in connection
with Ringing Brothers Worlds Great
est Show this season. For the hrst
time in the world menagerie, aviary
and aquarium have been combined In
a single exhibition. The great zoolog1-
cal pavilion is arranged as huge palm
garden. In the center is the pachyder-
MUM a spacious area devoted TO the
exhibition of the largest herd OF ele-
phents ever seen in captivity. There
are twenty-five Of these interesting ana
powerful beasts, ranging from the tint
est baby elephant to the largest pair OF
proboscdians in the world. These ele-
plants are all carefully trained, and
present marvellous performance under
the direction of a corps of trainers Oh
worldwide reputation. The aviary
comprises nearly score of mammoth
gold-illuminated cages, in which are
exhibited an unequalled archaeological
display, comprising the brightly plum
aged birds of every CLINE, giving
rainbow effect in coloring and ming
the enclosure with thousand blending
melodies This aviary of living birds
is the exhibitional sensation Of the sea-
son. 1t is an irresistible magnet Tor
the thousands of ladies and children
who visit this great show. The aqua
rum comprises an equally notable at
traction. The aquaria consist OF Sc
ries of huge tanks, in which are exhlp-
tied a remarkably complete collection
of amphibious wild beasts, including
hippopotami, sea lions, seals, polar
bears and other understanding AMI
mails. The amphibia are displayed in
their actual surroundings, while mani
moth storks, towering flamingoes and
other aquatic fowl give bright color
ing and an air of completeness to the
picture.
The children's menagerie, with It's
tiny cages of wild animals especially
dear to the hearts OF the younger ele-
ment, has been augmented by COM
prehensive display of si1nians, from the
tiny ring tailed monkey to the almost
humans anthropoid ape and chimpan-
zee. One mammoth cage has been fit
ted up as a monkey playground, in the
center Of which miniature merry go
round is utilized for the sports and
gambols of the withdrawing monkeys.
They thoroughly enjoy the whirling
journey on the tiny, carved lions, ele-
plants and giraffes, and the sport af-
fords the spectators unlimited amuse-
ment.
An innovation in Ringing Brothers
menagerie, and one which will be APP
preciated by the thousands who visit
the show when it exhibits here Thurs
day, June 16, is grand preliminary
concert by the Ladies' Orchestral Sym
phony club, which Is given during the
hour preceding the performance in the
main amphitheater. The programme
embraces popular and classic selec-
tions, and adds much to- the interest of
the exhibition.
