THE MULES SUCCESSOR
Cross Between Horse and Zebra To
 Be New Beast of Burden.

In Germany. according to MT. Rich ard Guenther. United States consul general at Frankfort, it is confidently predicted that during the twentieth century the mule will be replaced by the ''zebrula," which is a cross between a horse and zebra. pr. E. Heck, di- rector of the Berlin Geological museum. is of the same opinion as the consul general, and as he has devoted years of study to the subject his views there on are worthy of note.
 Little was thought of the zebra, he points out, until Menelik. emperor of Abyssinia, happened to send an un- usually fine specimen to President Grevy. of France So beautiful was the animal that 1t attracted much atten- tion, and Milne Edwards. who was then in charge of the geological garden in Paris, named the species after the pres ident.
 Dr. Heck saw this animal soon after it arrived, and he thinks that bio Cas- sius had similar animal in mind when he wrote about the "hippotigris," or tiger horse, several of which were seen in the circus at Rome during the reign of the Emperor Caracalla. His reason y zebra is found not only in Somalilard and at Schoa, in Southern Abyssinia, but also in other places which were at that time under the Roman dominion.
 The Parisians had hardly become ac- customed to the swift and beautifully striped creature from the tropics before another zebra arrived from Abyssinia and. as it was of a distinct species having 6 white tail instead of a black one, it was named after Faure, who was then president. Very tame and docile it soon became. Dr. Heck says: My colleague, M. Porte. of the Jardir d d'Acclimatation, used to mount and ride it, and every one was astonished at it's wonderful docility. It stayed ir stable just like a pony, and was regu- larly groomed and ridden"
 | Soon afterward the kilmandjarC Commercial and Agricultural societ. was established. its headquarters being on the Nasal steppe, in German Eas Africa, and then for the first time sys | tematic efforts were made to capture zebras and breed them in so that they l could be used for the same purpose: as horses and mules.
 That these efforts have been success full from the start the report of thu manager, Herr F. von Bronsart, clearl. | shows. Even grown up Zebras. he says of the specie known as the Boehm Ze bra, this name having been given l. them in honor of Boehm, the distin | guished African traveller can with lit tie trouble be trained to draw wagon and to carry men on their backs.
 The method adopted by Herr Vol | Bronsart is simple. His assistants cap ture as many zebras as they can an
 drive them into Q large enclosure which is surrounded by a thick an thorny hedge.
 | At first they are naturally unmanage
 able, for they speedily discover tha
 they have lost their liberty. but yer. soon they philosophically make up thei
 minds to accept whatever ma.
 be in store for them, and as a re suit they find themselves in a few day in comfortable box stalls and treate,
Arizona republican., 1903-09-13

in other respects just as though they were ordinary horses.
 That this is surprising achievement is evident from the fact that zebras are not by nature either cowardly or effeminate. They have been known to fight valiantly when attacked by lions. an dthey can make excellent use of their teeth, as many as African hunter knows ohis cost. Yet in a short tim:' after they have been captured these Boehm zebraS become so accustomed to their new life and to human beings that they allow themselves to be sad dled and bridled, and will even permit men to ride them.
 Six of the Boehm Zebras were recent ly imported into Hamburg, and soon after their arrival four were purchased by the manager of a circus, who said
 that he hoped to be able to teach them several tricks. That he will succeed IS very probable, for there is now in a cir GUS in Sweden a trained zebra of extra
 ordinary intelligence.
 Quite as interesting as the expert
 ments in Kilimandjaro company are
 those which are being made by Herr Falz-Feln at Ascania Nova, in South ern Russia. Herr Falz-Fein has large | estate there. and. according to D.. Heck, who recently visited it, ostriches. | zebras and antelopes wander over a
 great part of it, so that it really looks | as though a portion of Africa had been | transported into the heart of Russia. Among other animals there are sev-
 eral wild Mongolian horses. Herr Falz-
 F'ein was the first who ever captured
 any of these animals alive, and glad he
 is that he did so, for he finds that they | an dthe zebras are on very friendly terms with each other, and he fancies
 that good results may be obtained by
 mating them. The zebras also look
 kindly on the wild asses of Asia, "o1 | which there are several on the estate | The offspring of a zebra and a horse
 is called a ''zebrula," and on account of its form and its general physica
 condition, especially the hardness o

culiar to them is undiminished; water is decomposed by their vital force; and it is believed that its oxygen, com bining with the carbon. forms carbonic acid. which is given off. The effect of access of water is, therefore. to rob seeds of their carbon; and the effect of destroying their carbon is to deprive them of the principal means winch they possess of preserving their vitality. Be this as it may, it is incontestible that as soon as seeds begin to germi- nate their vitality is exhausted, and they perish. unless the seed is in a con- dition to continue it's growth by ob- taining sufficient food from surround ing media.
