SAN FRANCISCO TO
HAVE A new 700
Chutes Management Secures
Menagerie of City of VIC
tOria for Exhibition

San Francisco is once more to have
zoo.
Since the time when the management
of the old Chutes disbanded its me-
nagerie, selling its inhabitants to the
various circuses throughout the coun-
try, the city has been without such an
institution. But now comes the an
nouncement that the animals are again
to march into town, two by two" and
young San Francisco be given daily
opportunity to feed peanuts to the ele-
plants or watch, with wide eyed atten-
ton the ceaseless maneuvers of the
lion, the tiger and the leopard.
The geological gardens will be To-
Gated at the New Chutes. The man
ayers of the Fillmore street park have
purchased the entire zoo of the city
of Victoria, British Columbia. A tele-
gram consummating the purchase was
received yesterday. Frank Hall, the
English animal trainer and Steve
Lawrence, keeper of the old Chutes
menagerie, left for the north last night
to bring the animals to this city. A
schooner will be chartered out of Vic
toria and the entire lot of more than
so animals will be brought to San
Francisco by water. The vessel will
arrive here about December s.
The new zoo is to be located on the
property now occupied by stores facing
on the corner of Eddy and Fillmore
streets. The Chutes mana cement has,
during the last fortnight purchased
the leases which have heretofore pre-
vented the extension of the park to a
point flush with the streets. This OBJ
stacle removed, the buildings will be
torn down and room made for the
proposed menagerie. The zoo will oc-
cupy a space measuring $50 by 200
feet, and when completed will, it is
promised, be one of the finest equipped
gardens in the United States. Forty
dens and cages will circle the interior.
A feature of the arrangement will be
a steel arena to be built in the center
of the zoo. In this Frank Hall will
give daily exhibitions in animal train
ing. AS was the rule at the old Chutes
the zoo will be free to all patrons.
Among the animals to be placed on
exhibition will be a hippopotamus, ele-
plants, lions, leopards, tigers, camels,
zebra, bears. gazelles, hyena, ibex,
kangaroo, antelope and panther.
Work on the garden will begin as
soon as the work of wrecking the old
buildings is completed. 1t is expected
that the new zoo will be thrown open
to the public Christmas day.

ALL INVITED TO
MEET JAPANESE
General Invitation Issued for
Banquet to Party of Com
mercial Commissioners

The widespread attention attracted
by the visit of the Japanese CONNER
cial commission has induced the cham
ber of commerce to make the gala
banquet al the st. Francis hotel, No
magnitude. Most of the entertainment
provided for the visitors will bring
them in contact with the commercial
community, so it was decided that the
banquet be made of more general scope.
The visitors include the leading busi-
nessmen and financiers of the empire
and several leaders in japanese state
affairs.
At no time has single party of
foreigners come to San Francisco on an
errand of such far reaching Importance
A program expressive of the generous
hospitality of San Francisco has been
prepared. 1t will include automobile
rides, garden parties and receptions.
The banquet has been arranged as the
that has attended the delegation
during their tour throughout the coun-
try. The general invitation to the
banquet was issued last night. 1t fol-
lows
In view of the widespread desire to
see the leading men of Japan and to
cultivate pleasant relations with the
Japanese leaders of commerce and
trade. the chamber of commerce of
San Francisco has determined to afford
all public spirited citizens an oppor-
tunity to attend the banquet at the
st. Francis hotel, whether they are
members of the chamber of commerce
or not. Those who desire to attend
the banquet should communicate i'm
mediately with the chamber of COM
merce, 1889 Merchants Exchange build
ing"
The chamber has also requested per
sons who will donate the use of their
automobiles for three hours on Satur-
day November %, to communicate
with the secretary. On the morning
of that day the visitors are to be taken
on a tour about the city and then as
far as Colma, where they will take the
train for Burlingame.

street. ]. c. Westenberg, the superin-
tendent. has made provision to care for
an army of homeless men at his Bar

that apply.
Although the mission has made plans
for an extensive Thanksgiving charity,
it finds that it is still in need of suan-
titles of provisions and supplies.
The Thanksgiving dinner is one of
the regular annual features of Weston
berg's work on the Barbary coast. The
unemployed 1nd homeless look forward
to it each year. Five hundred men are
now sheltered nightly at the head
quarters. They enjoy the luxury of
free bathing facilities and clean beds.

WILL THE ARTIST
FINISH PORTRAIT?
In Studio of Keith There Stands
a Painting of e. II. Harri-
man Incomplete
Art Circles Curious as to What
Will Be the Ultimate Fate
of the Canvas

What will become of the portrait Of
the late E. H Hartman begun by VIII
liam Keith shortly before the great
fnancier's death and still in an unf1n-
ished condition?
Will it be disinterred from among
Keith's uncompleted canvases?
Will it be taken from the shelf and
worked up from memory?
Or will it be dragged into the light of
day and given a decent burial2
These are few of the questions
which are agitating the local art world,
questions to which Keith himself can
give no definite answer.
When approached on the subject yes
terday he was noncommittal- 4
haven't made up my mind what TO do
with it," he said. 'I suppose I shall
have to do something some day, and I
might just as well finish it, but l can
not say definitely. 1t is here half done
on my hands. What l shall eventually
do about it l don't know"
In the midst of his busy career it
seems that Hartman was able TO de-
vote only two sittings altogether TO the
work on his portrait, which, moreover.
is breach of the profession not usu-
ally included in Keith's list of regular
Worh. hence, with H1HuIdHcS On DOtu
sides the work was slightly handi
capped from the start. Those who have
seen it as it now stands pronounce it
excellent as far as it goes, and pre-
dict that if 1T had been completed it
would have done ample justice to artist
and sitter. 1t was not finished. how
ever, and so the public curiosity has
been aroused as to whether Harri-
mans widow will come forward and
claim it, whether the pride of produce
ing finished portrait will urge Keith
on TO greater efforts. or whether the
matter will be no further pursued.
