1t lies 275 feet above the river, three
miles from the city hall, and is reached
by five car lines. We have more than
1000 animals, and the collection is one
of the best in American, if not the
best. Yet this fine collection was
started few years ago with one tiger

"This plan has been followed in
many places, notably by Buffalo, and
has proven a decided success. There is
no reason why Minneapolis cannot have
as fine a ZOO as any in the country and
there is nothing that will attract visl-
tors any more than fine collection of
wild animals. This has been the ex-
perience all over the country. In Gin
cinnati the first animals were presented
by the leading citizens, one man giving
a tiger, another a buffalo, another a
flock Of pheasants, and so on. Once es-
tablished, the gardens would take care
of themselves if well managed and
would increase without any additional
outlay.
Minneapolis has some fine elk and
deer and some fine bears. The bear pit
and the deer paddock at Minnehaha are
very satisfactory, but the remainder of
the menagerie is of little account with
the exception of the swans and the
silver gray fox. Minneapolis should dc

UTAH ARTISTS TRIUMPH.
Prof Mcclellan Given Big ovation at
Denver symphony Concert.

Prof. ]. !. Mcclellan returned last
night from Denver in excellent spirits,
after having achieved a distinct mu-
steal triumph which leaves behind him
IN the queen City" a reputation Of
which he may well he proud The oc-
castor was the Salt Lake artists ap-
pearance az the piano soloist with tho
Denver Symphony orchestra, IN the
Broadway Theater last Friday after
noon. Prof McClellan's part in the
program was the performance OF the
great Grieg piano sonata, in three
movements, a composition of the no.
blest chara cter. in which the pro-
nounced individualism Of the noted
composer appears In a refined. strik-
ing and truly majestic light, The COM
position fairly bristles with technical
difficulties. and combinations OF har-
monies and modulations that seem 10
mark the highest limit to which the
mind OF mortal musicians can expect
70 attain in purity and musical excel
lence. There is refinement In the
elaboration OF the theme that lifts the
mind into the highest plane OF con-
temptation with scarcely noticeable ef-
fort
Prof Mcclellan was quite equal to
the task, and when he finished the
great audience rose to give him an
ovation. In fact he received five re-
calls, and while he was specially anx-
ious to hear that fine orchestra play
Tschaikowskrs symphony Pathetiaue,
he was unable TO do so because Of the
lnslstence with which local attending
musicians crowded around behind the
scenes to congratulate him The local
press spoke Of the Salt Lake artist In
very kindly terms. The Republican
