Of the physical condition OF the speci-
mems, says that once the specimen arrives
at the Zoo and is assigned to quarters 1t
Is never disturbed for experimental or
other reasons. 1t IL made to feel as much
at home as is possible. and the surround
iEgs are made natural as possible.
1t is hard to draw q distinction as to
the most popular aniamls at the Zoo,
but in all probability big Dunk, the le-
plant, and the baby monkeys, from one
extreme to the other, share the honors.
The elephant house is constantly filed with
sightseers, and it Is hard to get near the
cages where the monkeys are confined.
The herd of buffalo at the Zoo is now
one of the finest in the world and attracts
much attention from visitors to the city,
as does also the large flying cage erected
short time ago for the birds and in which
they live as near natural conditions as is
possible
During the week the feeding hour in the
afternoon attracts large number of wish
tors to the zoo and by the way, 1t Is not
generally known that all the animals, reptiles
and birds are fed according to a certain
fixed schedule as to the rotation of vari-
Gus kinds of food. For instant meat Is
fed to the bears on Mondays and Thurs
days. while on Tuesdays and Fridays they
get fish. The birds are fed in accordance
with their nativity, corn. wheat, sun flower
seed, rape, wheat screenings or cracked
corn. Sometimes these grams are mixed.
Feeding time is probably the most in
teresting at the Zoo because at that hour
all of the inhabitants are at their livelf-
est Most of the animals appear to know
when the hour for feeding is about to ar
rive, this being especially the case with
the seals, who can be seen to be on the
lookout for the man who brings them
their fish and on the alert to catch the
fish when 1t is thrown to them through the
bars of the big cage.
Washingtonians get much delight and
pleasure out of the Zoo and it is always
pointed out with pride to visitors to the
city, especially at this season of the year
when the trees are in full leaf.

Joy reigns in the hearts of the animals

time has come, and they are able through

shine and get away from the artificial heat
with which they have been kept warm and
comfortable during the chilling days OF
winter, when the winds were bowling
through Rock Creek Park and whistling
around the corners of the various animal

The animals are not the only ones that

More Patrons of Late.
AS each year passes by the National Zoo
is better and better patronized. New ami
mails are received with frequency from
Uncle Sans representatives all over the
world. and these specimens lend added in
terest to the already large collection on
view. Not a few of the specimens were
born in the park, and much care has to be
exercised in caring for them when the time
for the spring change comes. SAnimals from
cold countries get along much better in
summer than the animals from the tropical
regions do in the winter season AS stated,
the polar BEARS of course, suffer during the
time their visitors are clad in light gar
ments and straw hats, but their ice baths,
in which they can cool themselves at will,
take much from their discomfort.
The seals, which really prefer a bath
that is crusted over with ice, manage to
keep pretty lively during the warm season
and do not show any bad effects from the
change in temperature. AS a matter of
fact, all the specimens in the Zoo live In
a sanitary and stationary condition-that is
to say, provisions are made for their care
and comfort as required by the seasons as
they roll around. 800

Brazips Charge.
Brazil demands the withdrawal of the
military forces from the disputed territory
before resorting to arbitration, saying:
LAS condition, however, of that discus
sion Brazil asks that Peru withdraw the
military forces, which only recently in the
years of 1902 and 1903, taking advantage of
our troubles with Bolivia she sent to one
point on the afiuent of the Jurua and an
other an aff1uent of the Purus, trying
only then to occupy and exert authority
over population almost exclusively Brazil
ian.
To which Peru replies:
Such assertion is unwarranted, as Peru
Wan population has always existed there
as well as small garrisons to preserve
order.
The Pinckney Rule.
Brazil quotes the rule of uti passidetis,
established by Pinckney and Monroe In the
note of April 20, 1905, and consecrated by
Travers, Twist, Phillimore and Hall.
This rule reads thus:
When any European nation takes pos
session of any extent of sea coast, that pos
session is understood as extending into the
interior country to the source of the rivers
emptying with that coast, to all their
branches and the country they cover.
THAT possession Of coast Brazil has al
ways had, and besides the territory extend
ing to the sources of the rivers Jurua ana
Purus emptying with that coast has been
from long date. peopled and explored by
Brazilians, amounting today to popuia-
ton of 10000. Brazil, therefore, neither
changed nor introduced any novelty IN the
matter"
Peru makes the rejoinder:
1.-THE Pckney rule that supports the
statement of the Brazilian legation does not
apply In the present case. as the crowns OF
Spain and Portugal determined the boun-
dairy lines of their colonial commons IN
1777 by the treaty of st. Ildefonso, wnicn
for this section fixed the bed OF the Ma

Peru's Last Word.
Peru wishes to arbitrate the dispute
without conditions Her statement closes
in the following words. s&x
Peru maintains today, as she did when
Bolivia was a party, and has always oHer-
ed, and succeeded in, establishing In some
cases, that she is DESTROYS Of resortng 10
arbitration, without demanding previous
conditions, unnecessary to governments
really wishing to reach a prompt. just ana
pacific settlement of their differences.

A STRANGE TURN.

Charleston, Feb. 4. Judge Jeptha H. Evans of Bonneville, whose opposition to Gov. Jeff Davis two years ago was one of the sensational episodes of the campaign, delivered an address at Charleston Tuesday in favor of Governor Davis. The cores pondence that passed between Judge Evans and Governor Davis on the occasion of their recent arrangement was about the most bitter mutual arraignment one ever finds in the literature of political philippics. That Judge Evans should now champion one whom he then so bitterly de nounced passes understanding.

GAVE HIM A FRIGHT.
Hut When the Explanation Came Henry Found Out Things Were
 Not So Bad.

He was a constant visitor. He favor ably impressed her sisters and mother by his dignifed behavior and sensible conversation. He would probably have had the same gratifying effect upon her father, but as the latter was completely immersed in business he was at home very little of the time. The young man had a dim recollection of being intro dueed to him once and speaking a word or so, but since that time had not seen him at all. However, this didn't bother him much, and his love affair came to a focus rapidly, says London Tit-Bits.
 When he asked the young lady to be- come his wife she referred him to her father.
 ''I'll see hin tomorrow, dear," he re- piled.
 ''No. don't think you can," she an- swered; Ines going out of town on a long business trip tomorrow evening. and so will not be here when you come. 2
 By love, then, responded the young man, 'Ill drop in on him at the office. "
 The next day he turned up at the place of business of his idols father. He knew he was head of the concern. He made his way into the office and there confronted a very busy gentleman in- deed. Asking for a moment of the lat ter's time, he said:
 T have come to ask you for your daughters hand"
 The man addressed stopped, turned round and looked at him moment, and then sad:
 I'm sorry to tell you, young man, but my daughter is to be married to-mor- row"
 Without waiting for an explanation the horror-stricken suitor rushed from the building He hailed cab and drove madly to the young lady's home
 "What-what does fr all mean?" he gasped. as soon as he saw her. Speak! What does it mean? have just seen your father at his office, and he says that you are to be married tomorrow"
 'FWhy, Henry" she calculated, in a tone of astonishment, "my father? Why, he left for the north last night
 A little further conversation revealed the fact that Henry had been speaking to her fathers partner.

THE MINISTER'S SON. ;"

''The Ministers Son" is an exceptionally clever and remark able play. Its four acts are filled with comedy, realism and sentiment, mixed by a master hand. There is no Tagging of heart interest throughout, and it tempts the ear to fall upon the lip of laughter. As a vehicle for the display of the peculiar talent of w. B. Patton it could not be excelled. Quaint and original in his methods, realistic and exceedingly magnetic as Simon Ray the minister's son, a character full of comedy and pathos he holds the interest of the audience from start to finish.
