BISON OF THE OLD WORLD.
First Specimens of the Mighty Au-
rochs Ever Brought &c America
Now in New York.
New York Special.

Two great beasts have just been added
to the collection of animals in the New
York Geological park which are as inter-
esting as they are rare. They are the,
European bison, or aurochs. The latter
name was given originally to another
hoofed animal, but usage has changed its
Specification. Never before has living
specimen of these grand beasts been
brought to America.
Even within the historic period these
so-called aurochs roamed over the whole
of Europe. just as the American bison
formerly peopled our western plains.
When Charlemagne held sway this was
accounted a worthy beast Of the chase in,
all parts of Germany, but mans power

and increase have put an end to all such
conditions. Now but a small remnant
are left alive, guarded by soldiers of the
car of Russia and other potentates.
A good sized aurochs stands over six
feet high at the shoulder, and has much
the same appearing hump and shaggy
name as its American cousin
The two specimens at the Geological
park appear thin and weak after their
long and trying journey, but they will
soon become sleek and full bodied.
One may see three or four shaggy
headed American bison come up on their
side Of the fence and be met by the
mighty aurochs, and there they stand,
shifting at one another's muzzles-his-
toricaily the most picturesque creatures
of two sides of the earth, which in few
years will have vanished forever from
the sight of man. The memory and ira
dition only are left of the vast herds
which fought for supremacy with the
primitive Anglo-Saxons, and the other
thunderous crowds which few startled.
before the onslaught Of the wild red-
skins.

man acquired fame as an authority on
civil law.
In 1887 he found himself arrayed
against Justo Rufino Barrios, up for
reelection as president OF the republic.
and they became engaged In con-
troversy which resulted in the young
lawyer donning monks garb and
sweeping the public plaza at the COM
mand of the president
Instead of Illuminating the young
man and extinguishing mis- opposition,
this action OF Barrjos spuIred him on.
He wore the garb not only for the day
but forever. He spent several years in
preparation, was ordained priest, and
in time was appointed bishop and arch
bishop. To-day he is at the head OF
the Catholic church in the republic
His position gives him power, whicn
IN Latin country exceeds by far that
of men in hts position ID Anglo-Saxon
lands. He mas always been array ed
against the government. and has been
banished several times for his stand.
Recently he came ont in favor of the
reelection of Manual Estrada Cabrera
for president, and his action assured
that official of another term in office.
