tigers and Bengal tigers aro in tho zoo.
It requires ovor 100 cages and dens to
houso tho splendid collection of raro
wild animals. Throe great herds of
elophauts aro used for performing
acts, and tho intelligence they display
under tho direction of their trainer
opens a now chapter in tho patient,
scientific-work of animal education.
The ponderous creatures play at mimic
war, dance dreamy waltzes, lively two
steps and stately minuets, onact amus

balance ttioir monster bodies with tho
skill and guiding souse of human per
