BENEFIT TODAY AT
BOSTOCK'S SHOW
1t is for the Home of Needy
Confederate Women.
The Rahv Gorilla

The advertisement and notification that
visitors to the Bostock Show would be
the recipients of coupons on which they
could inscribe their name and suggest
some suitable name for the little stranger
from Africa, who Is at present nameless,
has begun to have effect already. and by
every mail numbers of cards are brought
on which many various names have al
ready been inscribed.
While the box that is located at the
entrance of the building is being we'll
attended to at each1and every performance
by the visitors, who may be seen In va
rious portions of the building directly af-
ter the gorilla has been exhibited, con-
ferring with one another and writing
names on their cards that they think may
be most suitable for the baby gorilla,
there seems to be an eager desire amongst
the community to win the lions claw,
and there is no doubt that the large num-
Der Of cards which will be presented to
the committee of gentlemen will adjudi-
cato upon the names submitted, select
ing the most suitable one, when the lucky
owner OF tho card selected will be invited
to call at Bostock's and become the re-
ciplent of the lions claw.
Already a widespread interest Is at
tached to the incident, and there Is no
doubt that the baby gorilla will become
the fashionable fad at the Bostocl1 Show.
To-day Is for the benefit of the Home
Of the Needy Confederate Women. and it
Is to be hoped fine weather Will prevail
and the funds Of the Home thereby ben
Gifted.

must the reality be?

plays, but there Is not a moral theatre
