The remaining members OF the

crates, and then brought TO the park
on motor cars.
ITS going to be rather interest
ing remarked young Mr.. DUPONT
this morning, in commenting on the
proposed transfer Of the Elk herd.
Mr.. dupont probably, is the best
authority on the subject. as he al
most daily visits the elk in their
park az the Brookside Farm and is
on familiar almost speaking
terms with the majority OF the herd,
Just who will do the lassoing and
"bull ring" the two bucks in the

Probably, two keepers Of the hero
at the Brookside Farm, will essay the
task Of roplng the bucks, and 1t alsc
is possible young Mr.. dupont him
self an accomplished horseman, vii
take part in the proceedings.
Earlier this week Park Commis

and possibly others OF the Japanes
