that no gorilla has ever been captured

ing. Even when MORALLY wounded
they show an.agility. strength and fe-
rocity which Is astonishing. A famous
traveller once stated that It would take
$50 men to hold down a gorilla with
any degree Of safety.
On the other hand, all other apes
are said TO be pathetically easy to cap
ture. The usual method IL for trap
per to seat himself where he Is certain
to be observed by these creatures and
pretend to drink from a bottle Of
crude spirits. When he is sure that
he has been observed. he leaves the
bottle and goes away.
The moment his back Ia turned the
monkeys rush TO appease their curios-
ity concerning the contents Of the bot
tie. They like the taste Of the spirits.
and quarrel among themselves for It
till the bottle has been emptied. They
are soon overcome by the intoxicant.
and the trapper returns and gathers
