Winter Quarters.

The "fareback' weather that has
marked the latter part of May and the
first days Of June has resulted in de-
laying the spring out-ofdoor opening
at the National Geological Park But
few Of the animals and birds have as
yet been placed in the open. The
touches of winter that have been in
evidence would have been injurious to
the tropical and semi-tropical birds
and beasts had they been transferred
to their summer quarters outside, it is
said.
collection at the Zoo is pair OF
clouded leopards. They are the first
specimens Of the family ever received
at that institution. The clouded leo
pard. the Zoo officials say, is the hand
soonest Of all spotted cats
Tail a Notable Feature.
It is not as large as the ordinary
leopard. but it has a long. big tan. The
ground color of the animal is a soft
gray The spots are rather irregular
and are not as strongly outlined as
the spots on the other species, but
they are much larger. They come from
Tie UcSe OIL INC i1l1QdIayd mountains
India and other countries in that part
of the world.
The Zoo also received a black leopard
recently, and had one birth. baby
harnessed antelope. The interesting
feature Of the little male antelope is
that when it was born and up to the
present time it was co1ored like its
mother a light, rusty red.
Radical Difference in Sexes.
The father is very dark brown,
and they are so different in appear
ance that novice would not think
they were members of the same
species. Both have narrow white lines
down their sides. The male has a
white line along the middle of it's back
The female has a black line along the
middle of its back. The baby antelope
is just changing its coat, and the black
stripe on it's back is merging into a
white one.
The harnessed antelopes come from
the region of the kongo river. They
are rarely gotten by hunters, as they
live exclusively in the heavy marshes
along that stream.
Another addition to the Zoo collection
is male waterbuck. a female was
received some time ago from British
East Africa. The male just received
was purchased from the Hagenbeck
circus. Still another addition is a
wolverine from Siberia.
