Sofia, Jan. 1s.-King Boris of Bull garia is the modern man with an elephant on his hands," and he wants to sell part of his private menagerie to an American geological garden or circus.
 In particular he would like to dis pose of two elephants and several fine buffaloes which are now in the grounds of the summer palace near Sofia.
 The mehagerie was established by former Emperor Ferdinand and the appetites of the elephants and buff faloes are so great that King Boris is hard pressed to feed them out of his slender income. The elephants alone consume grain and hay which costs more than the outlay for food for the young severeign's own table.
