zoo GROUP Is GROWING
RECENT ADDITIONS TO SEVERAL
OF THE FAMILIES THERE.

The children who visit the National Zoo
these wintry days are said to be having lots
of fun watching the mother monkey and
her baby monk in the big cage, where sew
eral varieties of that frolicsome and strenu-
Gus family are allowed to dsport them
selves and do all manner of gymnastic
stunts. The baby monkey is the latest
addition to the infant class at the ZOO
The mother is a native of South America
and is Of the ring-tailed variety. The other
monkeys in the cage appear as if they
would like to seize the infant and have
some real fun with it. but one of the Of
f1cials. of the informed a Star re-
porter that the mother is the boss of the
cage by reason Of her fighting ability, and
prevents the others from interfering with
her offspring.
An importan recent addition to the collec-
ton at the zoo was greatly admired today
by those who braved the Indictment weather
to while away an hour or so in the tropical
temperature of the animal house. 1t is a
long-horned American antelope. which has
just been received from western Kansas.
These animals are said to be nearly ex-
tnct in that part Of the country, but the
government Is preserving large number of
them in the Yellowstone Park. Officials
of the zoo say they are hard to keep in
captivity In this part of the United States
away from the prairies. An interesting
feature of the American antelope of this
variety is that 1t Is the only animal with
hollow horns that sheds the horns. The
horns are like those of the cow having a
bony core in the interior. These horns
drop off once each year.
Scientists Were Wrong.
1t is said years ago when the western
hunters and trappers informed several
naturalists who visited that section to
get specimens that the antelope shed these
appendages the men of science were in
credulous, and declared that they did not
believe the statement. as it was a we'll
known fact in natural history that animals
with hollow horns never shed them. A
specimen of this family was captured and
placed in the London geological gardens,
and while there dropped its horns. estab-
fishing the truth of the hunters assertion
and marking the American long horned
antelope as an anomaly in the animal
world.
In the Yellowstone Park the antelopes
descend to the fiat ground and feed upon
the alfalfa clover which abounds there.
They are said to be quite tame and are
increasing rapidly in the park.
A SERIAL cat from the wilds of Africa Is
another late addition to the varied and in
teresting collection at the Zoo This wild
cat Is a member of the ocelot family. 1t
has a longer tail than the American wild
cat and longer hair. 1t is a pretty animal,
having brown spots on yellow ground.
Other additions are a fox and fine macaw
from Capt. Tlumbacher, veteran Ameri-
can consul at Maricaho. Venezuela. He is
one of the oldest consuls in the diplomatic
service, 1t is said, and takes great interest
in the National Zoo. sending many rare
specimens here. These are transported free
of cost to the government by the steamship
company from Maricabo to Washington.

To Determine Earthquake Changes

In order to ascertain scientifically what
changes were made in the country by the
earthquake at San Francisco last April the
United States coast and geodetic survey
service has parties in the field gathering
data on the subject. Mr.. Baird, with a
party, is engaged in precise leveling in and
d. about San Francisco to determine what,
II any, changes in level were produced by
the earthquake, and Messrs. Sinclare,
Pratt, Fairfield and Smith of the coast
survey are engaged in triangulation in Cali
fornia to determine the extent of the dis
turbance caused by the earthquake shock.
1t will. 1t is stated, require several months
to complete the work the parties are en-
gagged upon, and after its completion the
data gathered will be brought to this city
to be worked out, and the report will then
be made public. From a scientific point OF
view the work being done in California Is
of much interest. and the report of the re-
suits obtained will be in demand when pub
lshed.

eminent are quite closely guarded, not only
as to the incidental minerals that may be
dug out in excavating the canal, but as to
the materials in the zone that may be of
use to the contractor in the actual work OF

less this authority Is specifically exercised
the cement and stone will be furnished by

curiosity on the part of the public to know
what the analyses of the sand and gravel
actually show when they are received in

BALTIMORE, Md, February "a man

unsuccessful attempts to commit suicide

RECORDS OF OLD PLACER MINES

Steps are being taken by the Panama
canal commission to see whether the canal
will not pay for it's own digging. This looks
like a pretty wild speculation on the face Of
it; yet 1t is within the range of possibility.
It also opens the question Of how much. If
any. the contractor, supposing the canal is
dug by contract, may be allowed to benefit
by the facts discovered. This is matter
that is entirely in the hands of the commits
sion, and 1t is said that the interests of the
government will be amply protected.
There is a wide range of possibilities as to
the value of the materials that may be
found in the canal zone. There have been
three biologists sent to the zone by the
commission, one of them, Mr.. Howe of the
geological survey, being due to arrive this
week. These experts will be expected to go
over all Of the ground and report on the
presence of sand, gravel, rock suitable for
cement making, coal and oil, IL there are
any, and, finally, and this will be one OF
the most interesting phases of the investi-
cation to the general public. whether or not
the material actually excavated in digging
the canal cannot be worked to advantage
for gold and other metals. Arrangements
the dirt, sand and gravel from various sec
tons of the zone sent to Washington for
analysis. That there is some gold in the
canal zone Is a matter of historical record,
and with the modern appliances for work.
ing it that have been developed in the past
few years, even a very low grade of gold
land can be worked at profit such that If
the deposit is extensive it may go largely
toward paying the expense Of the canal

To make tarragon vinegar put a
handful of tarragon leaves into a fruit
jar and cover with white wine vinegar
or cider vinegar. Screw the cover on
tightly and allow it to stand in the
sun for two weeks. At the end Of tat
time strain the vinegar through a cloth
and press the liquid from the leaves.
Then filter through filter paper and
bottle for use.
Nasturtium vinegar also is delicious
for salads. To make it fill a fruit jar
with nasturtium blossoms and add to
it a shallot, one-third of Glove or gar
lie and a red pepper, all chopped fine,
and cover with cider vinegar. At the
end of two months strain and filter.
