A VALUABLE WILD BEAST.

The Gorilla is Hard to Capture and
Always in Demand.
Eat the present time there is no wild ami
NAL in such great demand for exhibition
purposes as the gorilla" said dealer in
adj kinds Of wild beasts in New York to
the writer the other day. "a full grown
gorilla stands about four feet six inches
high and is worth from 81 200 to $500.
They sell easily for such prices. owing to
the fact that they are rare and very diff
cult to capture. Chiefs In the interior of
Africa have been offered large sums IL
they would succeed in catching one of
these beasts. Numbers of little gorillas
have been captured at various times. but
they have always pinned away and died in
a short time. The chief difficulty about
the capture of the gorilla is that he lives
in very unhealthy districts where fevers
prevail.
A white man has to fight the climate as
well as the animals. In addition to the
well known ferocity of the gorilla he is
regarded with a superstitious awe by the
natives. who have a legend to the effect
that this terrible beast carries away the
women to the jungles- They also regard
the gorilla as endowed with supernatural
powers. Two men sent out last year by

We have found a very simple way of pro-

only to buy few cocoanuts, cut of the
ends, like taking the top of an egg. which
can easily be done with a sharp chisel and
a mallet. bore holes through the sides,
put string through and knot il, and then
hang the cocoanut from a creeper or bough.
Thus for few cents you can provide food
for these lively little birds for weeks, or
rather months. Last winter our cocoanuts
were seldom let alone for many moments.
Birds swarmed on them, lowering them
selves down by the string. and at last when
confidence was quite esta blished flying
