The chimpanZee's home, which he will
occupy during his stay at the Zoo, was not
quite finished yesterday, so his reception
TO the public was held in the same private
room in which the reception to doctors and
newspaper men took place. The animal
made a distinct hit with all who saw him,
and there Is little room for doubt that when
he begins to absorb a little education he
will be the greatest attraction of the Zoo.
Active preparations are being made looking
to the springing OF the Tiger Lily sur
prise on patrons of the enterprise. The
new feature may be ready TO be given this
afternoon. although Managers Beck and
Potter would not announce this definitely
on account of their Discrimination to dis
appoint the public. Blanks to be used in
the voting contest to select a name for the
chimpanzee nave been received, and one
will be issued to every person purchasing
a ticket TO the Zoo. There is no limit
placed upon the number OF times any per-
son may vote, except the number of tickets
