ARRIVALS AT THE ZOO.
Ho1nbill Recently Added to the Col
lection


Recent additions to the collection Of ami
mails and birds at the Zoo include a horn
bill This bird is said by the officials to
be rara avis and the only one in America.
The hornbill is native Of India and its
food consists principally of fruit. Two
crowned cranes from Africa occupy a cage
adjoining that of the hornbill
The Zoo also has q pair of kinkajous, an
animal related to the raccoon, native Of the
Amazon valley in Brazil. In appearance
and actions they resemble somewhat the
monkeys Of the country in which they are
found, using their prehensile tails with the
same facility and purpose as Is character
istic of the South American sImans Ow
ing, however. to the fact that they sleep
during the day, they attract little attention
Other new arrivals at the Zoo are
superb black leopard, a Barasngha or
swamp deer, and a small deer, probably of
the Munt5ac order, from the Philippines,
given by Admiral Evans. The islands OF
the East Indian archipelago and India are
the home of a great number OF deer, the
Axis and Sambur being well known and
frequently seen in this country. 1t is rare,
however, that such deer as the Barasingha
and the one labeled philippine deer are
seen in this country, and their addition Is
therefore one of considerable value.
A young mandrill baboon from West At
RIGA is still another addition.
There was an unusually large Sunday
crowd at the Zoo yesterday, and the latest
additions came In for large share of at
tention.

Him to be the great Saviour OF the world.
What does the cross mean to you? You

The Beauty OF Dying was the subject
OF sermon preached yesterday morning by

In the course of his remarks he said:
The fact that death levels all worldly
dintinctions. which n false social system

times. II Is a truth well and universally
realized. King and peasant, the learned and
the ignorant. all classes and all conditions
are alike subject to the last call. VIII It
be a call to the glorious fruits OF victory
or the bitter ones OF defeat? This Is the
paramount question that confronts each
and every one OF US.
Il think 1t Strengthening exercise 10
our souls to reflect frequently upon our
last end In order that We may bring moro
clearly before our minds the vanity and
evanescence of worldly things. By famll-
iarizing ourselves with death. in AZ far as
we are able to conceive 1t, we will And that
1t will lose much OF its terrors''
