 The only way the battle could havs been stopped without grave danger to human life would have been with rifles, and there seemed no use or sense In that. Consequently the keepers stood watching outsids the enclosure, mortified but fas- cinated by the amazing conflict. Some- times the'two great bulls ceased fencing. as If by mutual consent, retired to . dis tance like old knights in armor, and charged each other full tilt, each hopine to stun the other sufficiently to ret in . death blow from the side. And thus 1t was that Punch suddenly gained the mas tery.

Now he was interested. He beheld her as King David beheld Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah, and he desired her more than his own lawful wives.
 Early one morning week later, how ever, without preliminary immediate warning of any sort, there was . tre- mendous crash, and the keepers came running. No human eye had seen what happened, but it could have happened only in one way. Punch had retired to the extreme end of his own enclosure, some hundred yards back, and had catapulted himself in full charge against the fence, not with his head alone, but with the full force of his entire body,

which weighed almost two tons-and he had smashed through.
 Now as the keepers arrived, he stood motionless, as if dazed by the tremendous impact, glowering inside Bills enclosure. For this reason, it was not Punch who made the opening attack in the amazing fight that followed. Bill, regarding the now silent mountainous figure which had so violently projected itself into his own private domain-"broken into his home"- believed with rage, paved the earth and prepared to give battle, while Lady, the cause of the war. stood terrified in s corner.

There was g lion in the New York Zoo which pined away and died of grief because its mate had died. Bill, this second buffalo It the London zoo, was homogeneous animal of that sort. His mate was a young cow-buffalo named Lady, and he took no interest in any other.

TyRs as "Punch," the Bison Who
 Killed His Rival in Fair Fight.
 ..... ... LONDON. HISTORY Is filled with the names 7 of human kings who have wrecked . families, smashed nations, battered down all barriers to win the love of . woman.
 Usually they were kings who already possessed wives, queens, harems of their own.
 Now king of beasts in London has as you choose, of a wild love-drama among animals which parallels the hectic records of human monarchs like King David, Henry VIII and the late Sultan Abdul Hamid. l%'
 This king of beasts Is a magnificent buffalo, . tremendous bison of the Vest ern plains, pride of the great Geological Gardens in London.
 His name is Punch. Though he was born on the Canadian prairie he possessed the soul of an Oriental sultan, and his keepers knew it. Realizing his poly gamous nature, the zoo directors provided him with royal harem consisting of three wives, three beautiful cow-bisons, Isabel, Helen and Europa, and when his wives wearied or bored him, docile dancing girl buffaloes were introduced to the royal enclosure, just as the viziers in ancient Baghdad dragged Circassian darpsels, willing or unwilling, to the palace of Calif Harun-al-Rashid.
 In | nearby enclosure, separated from the royal palace by massive wooden bars, dwelt another huge bull buffalo of quite different morality and temperament. Born on the plains of western Nebraska, he was moral, upright sort of buffalo who believed in monogamy and was faith ful to one wife. This is not an exagger- ation or m intent to be humorous. lndi-
