Neither the idea nor the fact of tanning
zebras is new In the middle of the last
century half-broken Burchelrs zebras were
sometimes seen for sale In Cape Town with
rider mounted to show that they were
rideable. II is said that they were ex-
ported to the Mauritius for draught pur-
poses. II so, il would be interesting to
know from the records of the colony
whether they were q success, and whether
they were bred there. The females are
fairly prolific even in confinement, and the
males cross freely with horse mares as
well. 1t is possible that they may have
been in Mauritius for some time as camels
were in Jamaica in the very early days OF
the plantation. The experiment has been
trier with complete success In England and
In South Africa. Mr.. Walter RothschiId's
team, three ZebraS and a pony, was fairly
well broken. though perhaps the animals
were not all that could be desired In the
stable. At Barnum's show team of four
zebra mares was as quiet as so many
sheep. The writer visited them when wait
Ing for their turn in the performance
where they drew a car. They were In
pairs, ready harnessed in their stalls. All
four were standing quietly with no one
near them, not fdseting in their harness

OF the ponies were. In the Field of March
IL, 1893. appeared u photograph of a team
regularly driven in the Transvaal. Messrs
Zeederberg, the contractors for the line OF
coaches which ran from Pretoria to Peters:
burg, bought eight half-grown Burcherl's
xebras from a Boer hunter named Grobe-
laer. Their object was much the same as
that which suggests Mr.. Stordy's advice
viz, to help in the coaches during the sea

when four months old, and broken TO har-

The Removal Of
The Wedge.

There was report today that L.
Zeckendorff proposed to purchase the
lower block OF the wedge and begin the
removal on his onw account, allowing the
city to follow after him.
The Citizen reporter called on Mr..
Zeckendorf this morning and asked him
in regard to the report.
"Well," said he, "there is no telling
what will be done in order that we may
gain our ends. OF course the wedge
project is before the council at the pres.
ent time, and things of such magnitude
do not move quickly. 1t takes time, but
we hope to widen Congress street and
extend it to the valley"
The two upper blocks OF the wedge
have been condemned, and on Saturday
night there. will be a meeting of the
council to act upon the petition to re,
move the lower block, which contains
the Pierson building.
