saw a Cockadillo
from Australia sitting by Grass Par
akeet. The Parakeet had her head
on the Cockadillo's chest and the
Cockadillo looked down at her to see
that she was sleeping quietly and that
she was all right.
Even If the Cockadillo felt stiff from
sitting in one position, he would not
move while the lovely pale green
Grass Parakeet was resting.
Then Nelly saw two other parakeees
sitting close together and they looked
10 happy and 50 contented.
Nelly wore flowers to the zoo, but
somehow or other they were gone BE-
fore she knew 1t and she wondered
afterward which animal had had q
meal Of her flowers.
They saw the camel pair next. And
when the keeper called to them they
came toward her and how nicely they
did behave! They let her stroke their
faces and they let her pull out little
piece Of the wool which still they
were shedding.
She called them by their names,
Babe and Kid, and she spoke OF the
funny splits they had at the tops Of
their mouths, which didn't insult them
In the least.
Kid had been In a parade which
had been held for charity and he had
had many a picture taken OF himself.
His keeper said he had behaved pretty
well for one not used to 1t, for 1t was
hard to know all about marching In .
parade when one was used to zoo life.
Babe had q bit Of wool over her eye,
but she let Nelly take 1t of for her.
But what had delighted Nelly was
when they had come when they had
been called. To see the two big cam
els marching toward her AZ though
| to say:
"Well. here we are; did you want
TO speak to usT'-was really very ex-
citing.
OF course they were very gentle.
though II they got excited or fright
ened they would probably have kicked
with all their four legs at once u
regular camel fashion.
| Next Nelly saw q gentle zebu pail
and a horse was having a meal Of hay
while waiting to carry some provf
sions to another part Of the zoo.
While he was doing this four little
wire-haired fox terriers got out and
began jumping up and down thu
horses hoofs and legs.
The keeper was horribly afraid thai
the horse would step on one OF tn
wee puppies, for their little claw
were sharp and would tickle and
bother the horse, but he seemed t
understand, and was 20 careful ant
30 patient.
Nelly loved seeing the little puppies
and after they were back In their stal
again Nelly played with them ant

Nelly kissed the brown ears.
The puppies were 80 full Of life ant
didn't want to keep still for second
OF course they did stop to have

The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1922-01-15

A loved, respected, familiar figure
has passed forever from our sight.
One whose nature was perennially
pleasant; one whose voice was ever
fraught with kindly greetings and
words of wise counsel; one whose
any time, Captain William Ely Pope,
has passed into the great beyond. He
has answered the call of the lion
hearted Stonewall Jackson, and has
"passed over the river to rest under
the shade of the trees"
Man, whose knowledge is finite,
says he is dead.
God, whose knowledge is infinite,
says he yet lives. "Be thou faithful
unto death, and will give thee "A
crown of life" said One who knows
all things.
Captain Pope had a long, useful,
eventful life. He enjoyed his three
score and ten, then another decade
was added to his span, and then the
major part of another ten. He lack
ed but a few years of being ninety
when the voice from on high whisper
edith his ear: "You are tired, now,
so tired. The length of your years is
many. There's a mansion for you in
Heaven. Come home"
The eyes that had been closed for
days because of WEAKNESS brought on
by the infrmities of age, were sealed
in death. The noble old heart ceased
to beat. The body became rigid in
the icy grip of dissolution and the
spirit winged its flight into the realm
beyond the stars.
William Ely Pope was born in
Florence, Ala, October 26, 1884,
hence, had he lived to the 26th Of
October Of the present year, he would
nave been eighty-eight years Of age
He came to Columbus in his boy
lood, living here the remainder of his
ife, with the exception Of the years
he spent in fighting for the rights of
he Southern States in the Confed-
rate Army.
In April, 1860, Captain Pope was
married to Miss Fannie Patterson. Of
his city She died in July, 1901, and
Ie remained a widower for more than
wenty years. To this union three z
hildren were born, all Of whom are
till living. They are: Mr.. W. p. I

ey, Of New York; Mrs Annie Tut
