Though the former has reached us
by some teutonic route, and the lat

both are believed to go back to the
late latin ''vidula' or 'vitula." Since
the instrument so-called appears to
have received its name as one APP

meant originally to sacrifice a calf

In Fact Everything Is Upside

Zoo, Old Animal Legends
Being Fractured.
BEAR, DESPITE COLD
WILL LEAVE HIS DEN
But the Alligator, Supposed to
Be Always Hungry, Has Not
Touched Food for 6 Weeks
-Spurns a Pig.

Two popular theories. one that
bears hibernate in the winter and dc
not eat during that period; the other
that alligators eat whenever food is
presented to them, have been explod
ed by GLOOMY Gus" the alligator
and 'Teddy" the bear, at the Glen Mil
Ter ZOO.
"Teddy" could be enticed in the
coolest day of the year to leave his
coy bed for a peanut, but as there
are not many who visit the zoo this
time of the year, he only is disturbed
three times day. This is breakfast
luncheon and dinner.
The Gloomy Gus Case.
With "Gloomy Gus" matters are diff.
ferent and he has been d member OF
the meat boycott for the past month
Not only is he d charter member OF
that organization but he evidently, be-
lieves every thing is too high. for not
a morsel of the most tempting foods
has he accepted.
AT first, the attitude on the part OF
the four foot member of the lizard
family, alarmed his care takers and
complete investigation was made
Of geological books to ascertain the
cause. 1t was found that alligatOrs
do not eat during the winter months
"Gloomy Gus is confined in the old
greenhouse, in small enclosure. be-
low the flower bed. Although he has
a nice pool of water for bathing pur-
poses, he is almost as strict an anti
water user in winte" as he Is dieter
All he appears to wish to do is to lay
under big steam pipe and sleep, for
whenever disturbed, the disturber is
always warned by a hiss, which is a
very unpleasant noise.
Took His Last Meal.
1t was about the middle of Deem.
Der that "Gloomy' took his last piece
of meat.
His caretakers endeavored in every
possible way to get the reptile to eat
Thirty cent cuts of meat We're first
placed within tempting reach Of his
nose. No use. They then tormented
the animal until he opened his mouth
and then deXterously showed a stick
on the end of which was placed a
piece Of meat. into his mouth. The
stick was then pulled out but
''Gloomy' was not to be fooled into
becoming strike breaker. He spat
out the meat.
Tempting mOrsels were, however,
daily placed within his reach, but at
night they were always removed and
given to some of the other animals
a different arrangement was attempt
ed soon after these repeated failures,
for his caretakers thought that posi-
bly, he wanted to kill his own game.
Pig Scared to Death.
A small pig, about ten days old,
was secured from one Of the neighbor-
ing farmers. The pig was placed in
the alligators cage and it realized on
the instant that it was in great dang
err 1t ran from one side of the cage
to the other and Gloomy Gus was
awakened. He did manifest little
interest in the small animal and
switched his tail once or twice. The
pig became much more frightened and
ran across one end of the cage once
or twice and dropped dead, but it
never served to break "Gloomy's'
long fast. so the story runs.
