Baby Lions in Berlin Zoo Raised

Two female lion cubs. born on New
Years day, have recently been placed
in one of the cages in the house for
the large beasts of prey in the Berlin
geological garden. AT their birth, ac-
cording to the Field. the dam did
not take to them. and consequently
they were sucked by a bitch. which
proved to be an excellent foster mo-
Their. For some weeks they were kept
secluded and grew exceedingly tame
and confiding. As soon as they were put
out they became great favorites, and
their kitteDish gambols, which the fos-
ter mother watched with a grave coun-
tena nee. have proved a source of great
interest 10 visitors. In all probability
they will attain the reward OF popu-
lar favorites, and be COMMUNICATED
on a picture postcard. In the same
house there has just been received a
leopard cub from Kamerun. There are
now in the collection representatives

FAIL TO FIND GOLD,
BUT CREDIT STORY
London Expedition Eager to
Make Another Try

A story has been circulated in South
Africa that Immediately before the Ma
table war Lobengula hid in some safe
spot an enormous treasure OF between
two and three millions sterling in
of ivory and a quantity of diamonds.
Only the king himself and his indu-
mas knew the hiding place, so the tale
goes. One of his subjects. a Cape boy
named Jacobs. recently guided an ex-
petition which set out from Johannes
burg in search of the buried treasure
Jacobs declared that it was at the
head of the Kori river. The party.
however, did not find the treasure. but
according to the Empire Review. are
said to be quite convinced that the
treasure does exist and quite resolved
to make another expedition after it.
