BABY LION sTARvES.
Cast Off by Its Mother and Foster.
Mother.

A cub of one of the finest lionesses
at the National Park Zoo has sue
cumbed to death from want of par
entail care, and while being nursed on
bottle says the Washington Times
of July 81.
1t was about a week ago that one
of the African lionesses gave birth to
two cubs, one of which died several
hours afterward from an injury sus-
tanned by it's mother stepping on it.
After killing one of her young, the
lioness took a violent dislike to the
other and refused to mother it. When
DR.. Frank Baker, superintendent of
the Zoo, and Head Keeper Blackburn
saw that the proper affection was
lacking, they made up their minds to
save it if possible.
The same lioness gave birth to a
pair of cubs little more than a year
ago, both of which died for lack of
care and attention. This time Dr.
Cecil French came to the front and
said that he had a great Dane dog
which he thought might foster the
young lion.
This was thought to be a good sug-
gestion. With great difficulty the
young lion was taken from it's mother.
AS soon as the unaffectionate mother
realized that the keepers were going
to take her offspring from her she
raised a great howl and fought every
one who came near the cage door.
The keepers played a game of
strategy and won. They secured the
little one and took it to DR.. French's
dog hospital, which is just north of
the Zoo, on Klingle road.
1t was thought that perhaps the
Dane would not take kindly to the
neglected one.
When the newcomer was placed in
the litter the Great Dane looked at it
rather questioningly, nosed it from
head to foot, laid down and allowed
it to nestle to her as she would one
of her own.
The manner in which the dog took
to the lion pleased the keepers, and
they were very much gratified and in
hopes that the foster mother would
rear the baby to strong and healthy
animal.
For day or so the little fellow and
it's new friends were great chums.
Neither showed a sign of distrust.
Sometimes there would be a little
crowding, but no serious alterations.
Imagine the chagrin of the author
tiles of the Zoo when day or so after
the cub had been placed with her the
Dane refused it nourishment. The
keepers were uncertain as to what to
do. 1t was at last decided that the
cub should be nursed on a bottle.
One was provided and for a meal or
two the cub seemed satisfied. Later
it rebelled and refused to be nour-

$4,000 ANNUALLY FOR DRESS,
Mrs. Clarence Mackay Spends a For
tune on Her Wardrobe Each Year.

~ 'sSf w GdCn ear.
A New York correspondent saws
mat Mrs. Clarence Mackay, the dasn-
Ing leader of New York society. with
a fortune of almost $4,000, 900 at he
command, is credited with being the
most extravagant young matron in
America. She spends annually more
imam $4,000 on her wardrobe, and ibis
does not include her lavish expendi-
lures for jewelry, which is her pet
rad. With an assured Christmas pres.
ent every year of $4,000 for pa
money, and regular allowances on ar
equally liberal basis, she is easily u.
position to lead the younger set OF
women in New York in the matte. of
extravaganza.
Mrs. Mackay leans perceptibly TO-
ward fads, and one of her latest GRE
atoms in this direction is to be founJ
in her magnificent country home on
Long Island, comprising a mansion
and 700 acres of land, which was pre-
scented TO her by her father-in-Iaw
John W. Mackay. In this house Mrs
Mackay has had constructed the mos
wonderful bath that has ever been
seen in America. 1t was brought over
from Italy, and is cut from a solid
block OF marble, which cost somethi,..
like 100000. The pool is sunk in Inc
floor and five broad marble stems lea

the mouths of exquisitely carved mar

bathroom is a great fireplace built in.
to the side wall of the room. Each of
the other twenty-five bathrooms in 80
mouse has luxurious Pompeiian batb
let down in the marble floor in the
same way.
Mrs. Mackay's suite of rooms is in
the western section of the house. Tn,
color scheme is lavender and the wood
work French mahogany. The rooms
are decorated by high priced artists
and an odd feature of the doors is thai
they are sectioned in plate glass pan.
els and have cut glass handles. There
are many and big windows in each
room.
An elaborate portion of this SUNNI
tuous house is reserved exclusively for
little Miss Katherine Duer Mackay.
who is most important member of
the household. Her apartments are
connected with Mrs Mackay's suite.
There are three rooms for Baby Mac
kay, which are furnished in the dain-
test manner, the trimmings and fl.
tings of the French windows all of
silver.
At the western end of the house is
also the salon and library, and these
magnificent rooms look out upon a.
grand conservatory and a series Of
Pompeiian columns, which support the
great piazza.
From the windows at this side OF
the house New York can be seen on a
clear day, while the northern outlook
shows the ripping waters of Hemp
stead bay, and from the south one can
see the ocean beyond a picturesque
landscape.
The ballroom is another feature of
this palace of splendor. When one
first enters the door this room appears
like an immense hallway. 1t runs the
entire length of the house and meas

ures 80 feet in length by 40 in width
and is % feet in height. Wide bal
comics of carved old English oak dec
crate the upper story.
To the left of this great room is
great staircase of English oak, when
leads to the southwest wing. Other
passages to the right terminate in Mr..
Mackay's rooms, the billiard and din
ing rooms.
There is also an oriental roof gar
den.
1t was Mrs. Mackay's own idea that
each of her thirty servants should
have separate room. The rooms are
small, but are sunshiny and comfort
able.
The culinary section of the house
would certainly make housekeepers
gasp with surprise. The kitchen
alone is a modern marvel. The trades
men come and go unseen, for they are
to enter behind great screens of shrub
berry and pass into courtyard clever
ly hidden behind a stone wall.
The broad driveway, which is just
one mile from the picturesque lodge
gate to the mansion itself, is tribute
to the skill of the landscape gardener.
No one can pass through the gates
without card from Mrs. Mackay.
Although spending fabulous sums
every year upon gowns and the graft
fication of little whims regarding fads,
Mrs. Mackay is by no means neglect
full of the more serious problems oil
life. She gives fully as much to char
| ity as she spends for her own pleas
ure, and makes it rule never to buy
herself bit of finery without giving
the equivalent to some deserving per
son or institution. Mrs. Mackay is a
new type of the fashionable woman,
and she has attracted no end of at
| tention in the east-in fact, through
out the United States.
I People stare at her so much when
she drives out in New York that she
wears veil covered with heavy lace
flounces that completely hides her
features like mask. She is a beauty
with dark hair, dark eyes, and an ex-
lquisite figure. Her gowns are the besc
that can be bought. Jewelry is her
pet fad, and she has one of the finest
| collections of jewels in America. One
ring is Hindu curio, which cost
$4,000. It covers three fingers and
is of old yellow Chinese gold set with
rare rubies, diamonds and emeralds.
Among her furs is a single coat of
sealskin and sables which cost 81 .0OG.
Mrs. Mackay is justly reputed to be
the most original woman in New York
society. She furnishes the surprises.
fashions and fads for the young mem
bers of Gotham's smart set. and the
distinction of having inaugurated
baby parties in this country belongs
to her. She is the wife of a man
whose fortune may be estimated at
So5.O0O,O 900, and had a millionaire
father-in-law, who humored her extrav-
agance as he did that of his wife. She
is the mistress of one of the most
beautiful country homes in America.
and yet her friends say she has not
been spoiled by all this lavishness.
She always has time to be pleasant to
everyone, and, although she enter
talns constantly, she never neglecrs
her little daughter for society.
Stationery is one of Mrs. Mackays
many fads. 1t is all in violet, and. be-
cause she thinks red 2-cent stamp is
inharmonious on a violet enveIopo
she uses the Scent stamp instead.

But if you see man biting dog,

details to the Sun office" This is
poor paraphrase of good story.

Where Some of Our Teachers
are Located This Year.


Miss Laura Douglass of Colum-

May Rubey of Macon City, who

her name.
Prof. A. G. Craddock of Upton
has recently become benedict and

this year.

primary teacher in Joplin, Mo.
Prof. w. H. Harrison is doing
good work in the Washington

assistants are Mrs. A. B. Moore
of Columbia and Miss Emma j.

One Of the best primary teachers
in the State of Missouri, is Mrs.

methods are purely original, which
methods have long since proved to
be the best.
Prof. j. B. Coleman, who as
