in the community.

PEOPLE AND EVENTS.

Nathan Ballinger, cf Newcastle, Ind,
so years old, is cutting new set OF
teeth, the third he has had in the course
Of his life.
1t is said that Chartran, the French
artist, has made a striking portrait
of President Roosevelt, one that suits
even the painter, who is his own sever
est critic.
Although Senator Elkins, of West
Virginia, does not often attend the
races nowadays, it was different dur
ing his early manhood. One day he and
chum slipped off together from school
and on the way to the track came across
their professor, who said in surprise:
young gentlemen, what does this
mean? You should be at your lessons"
Elkins said: ''Sir, we wanted to go to
lessons and also to the races, SO we
tossed for it and it came down for the
races 'What did you throw up?"
"We threw lump of coal up. II it
stayed up we went to school; if it came
down we went to the races; and here
we are, sir"

New York Geological gardens and
the Central Park menagerie. The
two institutions are under entirely
separate management. -
The "Zoo," as it is commonly
called, is already one of the largest
menageries in the world. When com
pleted it will be the largest. 1t is
situated in the center of the great
Bonx park, to the north of the city,
and connected with innumerable troll
ley lines and the Third avenue elevat-
ed railroad. The Bronx park is
mighty stretch of wild woodland for
which the northern part of New York
city is noted. It has been beautified
and embellished, always with the
care of retaining its wild luxuriance,
till it is the most magnificent park in
the world that is an adjunct to city.
The establishment Of the 200" in
the heart of it has made it most
attractive amusement spot for hun
dreds of thousands of visitors dur
ing the months of seasonable wealth
er. In the spring, summer and fall
it is next to an impossibility to get
a seat on car going to or coming
from the Bronx park. OF course
Central park is always filed when
the weather is pleasant.
1t costs pretty penny to keep
them UP. But few think of that.
And the public demand is constantly
for more animals. When we sconsid-
er, however, the knowledge that the
people gain and also the pleasure
they derive from seeing and watch
ing these beautiful and interesting
creatures, we will all agree that it il
worth the while. gt tusN,4s@ @s

ture gets down about zero. Hundreds
of the birds and animals that are ma
tives of tropical countries would con-
tract colds and pneumonia and cor
sumption if the temperature in their
houses were not kept perfectly even.
The fires must be watched day and
night and intelligent keepers are
constantly in attendance. Then, toe,
the food must be prepared in GER
tain way and if any animal is the
least indisposed he is~given medicine
and treated as tenderly as if he were
a human being.
At the Bronx now there are about
1000 animals, and in the Central Park
menagerie about 400. Many Of these
animals are very expensive and IN
the event of their death would be
hard to replace. The most expensive
animal is the rhinoceros, which is
valued at $4,000. The one in Central
park is 60 years old, out according to
the best. accounts of naturalists he
has 30 or 40 years to live yet, if he
reaches the full span of his exist
ence. The price of an elephant varies
from $1,5OO to So, ,5O0,e and his longevity
is usually placed at from SO to 60
years. Lipns are worth all the way
from $500 to $500, and live to be
from 20 to 30 years old. The ages of
other animals run from 10 to 25
years. -
Aside from the expense of .acquir-
ing two such menageries as those in
the Bronx and Central park the cost
of maintaining them is enormous.
Many of the animals must have beef,
and they must have it in large guam
titles, which at the present high
price even for inferior cuts (but the
quality must be of the highest), re-
quires the expenditure of thousands
of dollars during the year. Then
there is a large corps of keepers,
many of whom must be skilled in
their line of work, the expense of
heating and numerous incidentals
that make total sufficiently large
to cause the tax dodgers to dodge
all the harder. 1t costs over 100000
year to maintain the animals in the

STABLE BUILT ON ONYX.
Something Extraordinary In the Way
Of Foundations for a Com
mon Structure.

Philadelphia boasts the most curious
stable in existence.
1t puts to blush the pretensions of
the palatial stables of ancient Rome
or the luxurious quarters where the
Croesus of the present day houses the
thoroughbreds that bring fame to his
colors-for its very founda tons are of
Mexican onyx, reports the Press of
that city.
More than that, there are two big
freight carloads of this rich product
of Mexico's mountains and plains
buried underground to support the
modest building that is at once Phila-
delphia' s most unique abode for horses.
And they are just ordinary working
horses, too, that trudge through Phila-
delphia's streets with their burden
from morning until eventide and are
then stalled in plain but comfortable
quarters until the next days call for
work brings them to realization of
the fact that, though they live in
house whose very foundations are OF
rare value and rarer beauty, they are
still Just beasts Of burden.
The story of how the Mexican onyx
came to be used for the founda tions of
this particular stable is not uninterest-
ing. The stable itself-is a modest 211a-
story brick, of the plainest possible
sort. It is. practical and not orna-
mental. It occupies space near the
center Of the city, and if William Penn
just turned his weather eye little to
the left IS he looked over Philadelphia
from his eminence at the top of the
city hall tower he could look directly
upon the roof of this particular sta Bile.
The company upon whose property
the stable sets and for whose purpose
it is employed is one of the largest inn
porters of American onyx in Amen lea.
Nearly five years ago their attention
was called to an importation of onyx
that came from Vera Cruz-the main
Mexican port for the importation of
the stone-and which lay on steam
er's dock in New York harbor.
The entire consignment was takento
lot belonging to them in the outskirts
and lay for nearly five years.
The stone was 20 hard it turned the

In a word, Mr.. Dohong is the most
genteel monkey in the New York
Geological gardens out in the big
Bronx park, to say nothing of the
other animals, many of whom belong
to the Smart Set. If you could have
gone there the other day with ME
and afterwards made visit to the
winter quarters of the animals in
Central park you would have been
proud Of some of the specimens that
Mr.. Darwin insisted came down di-
rectly from our ancestors. The in
mates of the 800 are feeling par
ticularly fine.t It may be that, like
their more highly-educated brother
animal, man. they are animated with
the exhlarating thoughts OF spring
moving, Tor several new houses have
been prepared for them and doubt
less they are anxious to get into their
commodious homes &FS
There is the new lion house, for in
stance. It is the finest one in the
world. The IL lions which have been
installed there are very happy in it,
and look complacently at the Wis
itors for whom seats have been pro-
vided. Or if the lions tire of the pub
lie gaze they may retire to their pri-
vate apartments that have been. ar
ranged at the rear of their cages.
All the modern Improvements have
been placed in these new houses
running water, steam heat, etc.
Numerous other new quarters have
been CONSTRUCTED for the other in
habitants of the 200" and the mem
bers of the various families are
rather on the qui vive in anticipation
of moving time. why, if you could
have seen old Mrs. Bear the other
day gathering her cubs about her
and walking up and down the spa
cious yard allotted to her and hers,
YOU could almost have imagined that
she had her boxes anu bandboxes
about her packed and ready for the
moving.
And gracious goodness! Over in
the elephant house there is the same
kind of excitement. Not that the

spring. My, no! They have their
own house, you know-an elegant old
nnansion-but still there are indica-
tions that the rejuvenating effects of
spring are upon them. Of course, it
Is the time of the year when the new
styles in spring and summer coats
are in vogue. There IS not an animal
in. the Bronx or Central park that
will not have a new coat this spring.
That is why they are all feeling SO
frisky in the elephant house. One
might, if one were real intimate with
the family and if one were there all
the time, see Mrs. Elephant trying
on a new love of hat and asking
her maid, Miss Monkey, if it were
on straight. Or if one would go over
to the hippopotamus'' apartments one
might possibly see Papa Hippo being
measured for a new spring suit. But,
anyway, all the animals are begin

pairing to lay off their winter cloth

edge of every cutting tool they had in
their equipment, and they realized that
as beautiful as the material was it was
not practical for any commercial pur-.
pose.
When new stable was planned ono
of the officials said: ''Why not use the
onyx for its foundations?"
No sooner suggested than done. The
blocks were of just the right size and
there was no questioning their solidity.
Now--supporting structure OF com
mon, ordinary PhilaGelphia red brick
the Mexican onyx blocks are fulfilling
a useful but humble mission.

cry made" The ten virgins heard that
cry, but there is no evidence that 9th
ers heard the cry or knew the bride
groom had come except as the five
wise virgins who went in to the mar
riage supper were missed from their
accustomed places. The waiting, ex-
pectant church will hear the shout Of
its Lord, and the voice of the arch
angel and the trump of God, but there
is nothing in the Scriptures to lead one
to believe that the world will be con-
scious of the music and the voices in
the upper air. 1t will only know that
those it had known are missing.

Christian heart which is tuned to the
expectant- hope OF a returning LORD
need not fear that the thrill of the
midnight cry will not be felt. The
shout of the coming Christ will set the
chords of the true believers hearts to

wings of faith to join their voices with
the voice of the archangel while the
trump of God fills, the Heavens. with its
triumphant music. All, at midnight,
