Some Zoo Psychology.

A little girl in a red hat approached
the tigers cage. and the old tiger,
with a horrid yell, made a spring at
her. Her yell in return was al
most more fearful than the beasts
Dash it ALL" said Keeper John
Lover, I'VE ought to have a rule pro
hibiting red in the carnivora house
Red excites these animals some
thing fierce. It's actually bad for
their health"
Why does red excite them?"
Because it looks like flesh. II
looks like blood. A lion or a tiger
sees a girl in a red hat or a rec
blouse, and he gets the idea in his
noddle that a chunk Of raw mea
is being brought to him. He mistakes
the red fabric for a horse steak. and
slavering and roaring, he makes i
dash for it. And that is the psychol
ogy of a c~arnivorous animals so

taste he will destroy it, though it

gathered at the fair grounds in the
afternoon. For a full hour and a

with exhibition drills, athletic con-

the race track was perhaps the most
exciting feature of the maneuvers.
When the two troops galloped at
break-neck speed past the grand
stand yelling and holding sabers
high and horizontally In the air, the
effect was so thrilling that the spec
tators enmasse jumped to their feet
in excitement. The fair visitors may
