A New York letter to the Atiants (Ga.)
0 omstifl ion gays: One day I was walk-
ing down Chathmn sweet, New York,
when hy steps were serested by a queer
sound, proceeding from a store. It was
a sort of chirping tumult, as if all the
birds in the world had met in a debating
gociety. 1 had little difficulty in finding
the door from whetice the chopped
volume of music issued. It was, { be-
lieve, No. 55, a handsome front and a
large store. sauntered to the dom
and looked in, and saw a sight that I do
not think can be duplicated in America
On each side of the store the walls were
lined with bird cages, from top to bot-
tom. The groundwork was of canaries,
and there must have been thousands of
these yellow tufts of fuss and feather,
Underneath the swarming tiers of
canaries were large compartments in
which were pheasants, cranes, and
every rare hird, sacred or profane, that
I ever heard of. On the higher shelves |
were smaller song birds and show birds,
from inane love birds, or
finches, up to the hoariest and hoarsest
of parrots.

I don't know how I came to know so
much of him so soon, exoept that he dis- |

after an hour's chat that I was taking
to Henry Reiche, of the firm of Reiche &
Bro,
This firm is faraous the world over, and
stands withou: competitors, In the
name of this firm there are organized
bands of hunters in all parts of Asia and
Africa engaged in capturing elephants,
lions, tigers, ete., for shipment to the
branch house in Hamburg From th
point the animals are supplied to er
America. All wild animals that fill the
menageries and parks of this continent

with whom | spent that delightful day.
His history is full of interest.
In 884 or 45 Charles ard
Reiche, two young Germans; having
little jess than the practical education
that seems to be natural to young Ger-
ans, were bird peddlers in New York.
They went about from street to street
selling birds from stands. Their trade
was principally in eanaries, which they
nad sent over from Genmuany, where
they only cost ten or twelve cents each.
They did a pretty Inir business up to
1852, when they made a daring stroke |
that made them s fortune and estab-
lished the enormous business they now
control. At that time California was in
the flush of gold finding. Gold was
pientifui there, but luxuries few. There
was no transcontinental road, and
the Isthmus route was tedious and
costly. Young Reiche, knowing that
canaries were unknown there, and be.
Heving they would become the rage
when. once seep, determined to carry
over a Cargo. He, therefore, got 3,000 of |
the yellow fellows together, and, pack-
ing them in :ittle cages, started for the
Isthmus. Arriving at Cartagena, he |
i his birds carried across to Panama
bay, by natives, and canght a ship there
and soon reached San Francisco. He
was late in reaching the ship, and the
captain was about to sail without him,
but, seéings his boats filled with covered
boxes, who ught it was belated mail mat-
ter. When Reiche drew near, the cap- |
Jit hailed him and asked him what he

* Canary birds,” replied Reiche.
“Canary birds!” shouted the captain.
“If I'd known it was birds, I'd ha’ left
you long ago.”
Reiche's first idea of the flush he |
was to ride was caught from a homesick
Englishman, who, hearing the wh
of a bullfnch that had been sc.identally
put in with the canaries, offered to pay
the expenses of the entire cargo for that
finch. Asthis amouuted to $383 R: ich
saw t hat he bad struck a rich lead, and
he put the price of canaries at £25 each. |
They did become the rage. Hotels, sa-
cons, private residences, all must have
A a canary. The little yellow birds made
a craze like the tulip nuanis. The price
soon went up to $50, and the cargo was

t
a rich man.
A bout this time the menagerie became
an American institution. The “moral
ow went abroad through the land, and
the re was & demand for Asiatic-African
animals. For years Hamburg, in Ger.
many, had been a sort of depot at which
such aplmeis were gathered by ineom-
ing ships froth the tropics
ceived gh: idea of establishing a house
there, and supplying it steadily with all
sorts of beasts, to be captured by bands
of hunters, working under his direction
in the deserts and jungles. Up to that |
time the supply at Hamburg had been |
essual, depending on what sailors or |
ship captains might bring over. Mr.
Reiche went into Africa and Asia, and
found that his best method was to de.
pend upon native hunters, acting under |
order of their sheikh and directed by a |
few while men of courage and address.
His system was soon so organized that |
his beast depot at Hamburg became the
jargest in the world. It was supplied
constantly with all sorts of captures,
from aS ante lopes up to elephaats,
running through all the pli {from
leopard to rhinoceros. From Hamburg
he now supp. ies the most of the parks
and gardens of Europe. and ships heavily
to America. He imports every wild
animal sold in this country, and keeps a
“large snd assorted stock on hand.”
Nine-tenths of the animals in Central
park, New York, and a large proportion |
of those in other parks are his property.
When Lie receives a consignment of lions |
or hippopotami, or a few rhinoceri and

purchaser. He keeps in his siore only a
few of the smaller animais—and even
the inary in Central park is stocked
with his birds. He considers twenty
lions a good average stock, with proba-
bly as many tigers, a dozen elephants,
four rhinoceri (or rhinocerosses), and |
oth.r beasts in proportion.
The most extensive animal he dealsin
is the hippopotamus. A good hippo
potamus is worth (to a man who wants
him) from $10,000 to $12,000. They
must be captured when they are young
and raised on goat's wilk. A caravanof |
hunters returning across the desert with
captured animals is a strange sight. |
About one thousand goats are brought
with the caravan to furnish milk for the |
antelopes, hippopotami and other milk
drinkers. As tbe goals cease giving
milk they are killed and fed to the flesh
eaters, The animals are carried in
bamboo cages, rigged with ropes. and |
slung across the backs of camels. From
the coust they are shipped to Hamburg,
where Mr. Charles Reiche receives them
uy
“uy
ing to demand. Elephants are captured |
when young, and usually by driving |
them into immense traps that Converge |
rapidly until the beasts are cribbed into |
reach of ropes, A fine elephant will
bring from $1,000 to $5,000. Of course,
the price of animals varies with the de.
mand. You must get a man that wants
a beast before you can get any price for
him—then the price depends npon how
much he wants him.
**You see,” said Mr. Reiche, smiling,
“vou wouldn't give 810 for that lion
there (for we had now drifted to Cen-
tral park) for your own use, tnd yet he
is worth 82.500.”
A good companionable tiger can be
bought for $1,200, and a nice leo rd
is worth about $400. Monkeys
the bunch by the dozen at es
each, and a rhinoceros brings A
$3,000. A giraffe is very expensive and
very delicate, and a zebra, striped up to
the regulation of ninety,nine and one is
worth about $1,000. Giraffes die of in-
digestion, the rhinoceros, despite his
heavy overcoat, is a frequent victim of
consumption, and the monkey dies of
emotional languor.
The depot for sea lions is San Fran-
cisco, where. a man named Mu:lett su-
perintends. They are taken on the south
California const, and bring about $400
each. ~ Polar bears come from the
Arvctics, and are worth about $2,000.
They are kept ip deep caves that are
damp and sunless, or in dens set in ice
and with Lugze blocks of ice dripping
from the top. The point at which Mr
Reiche buys them is Hamburg, very few
being taken in our Arctios. The snake | |
trade is one of the important dopart- |
ments. The headquarters for snakes is |
Para, in Central America, though, of |
course, the boa comes from the Nile,
and the anaconda from Afrioa. There |
are various depots for rave fish, and Mr
Reiche is an enthusiast on this subject,
being owner of the New York]
aquarium. The bright-colored
come from the tropical waters, and the
dullcolored from Acetic stations.

special order from some cireus ov park
for a certain animal. This order is at

ture it. A pair of hippopotami are now

A lar se business
American animals; this
well as the importing, is controlled by
Mr. Reiche. The grisaly bear is the
typical American beast, and isalways in
demand for Europes an buyers. T
buffalo, moose elk, and caribou are the
| larger animals exported most heavily,
they being American types. The opos-
sum, the gray squirrel, the red fox, the
hedgehog, are the most popular of the
smaller animals, while the puma is in
great demand as a new type. The mock-
ing bird is a great favorite among birds,
and Mr. Reiche has men who search the
Southern forests for them annually.
{ The red-headed woodpecke r is exported
heavily as a show bird, and the robin is
esteemed in E nglish parks as a quiet but
| handsc fellow. Thereis a very large
profit on the exchange. Mr. Reiche
once bought a pair of fine cranes in
Schoh arie. N. Y., to fill an English
order—giving $25 for them and receiv-
ing $400. There is an interesting story
connected with the famous London show
ele phants, s showing some of the points of
the animal trade. A Mr. Ke ly, a
Sanker, who drifted into the show busl-
ness by a mortgage on the Van Amburgh
menagerie, sent out a ship to Ceylon.
He loaded it with a number of Yankee
houses, all ready for putting together.
He had the sashes, doors, locks, and
everything complete. Arriving at Cey-
lon, he sold the houses at an enormous
profit, ball asted his ship with coffee,
and put thirteen elephants and a lot of
animals aboard, He made $30,000 clear
money by the trip, and had his ele.
phants clear. Of this herd five were
trained for the Lo nd lon show, and one of
them, ** Baby,” is the mother of the first
elephant ever born in captivity.
Of course, Mr. Reiche has amasae

tainly growing richer. He has a superl
residence at Bergen, N. J., where he is
surrounded by every luxury that taste

Cariosities of Speculation.
It is curious to note what men will do
to make money. Some months ago
there was quit e a brisk speculation in |
hops, there bx ing as usual two parties—
the bulls
this case of the farmers, who naturally
wished prices to go up, and of the brew-
to decline. The contest raged furiously
in this city and elsewhere for many
weeks, as there was really a large
amount of money involved. A wells
known circular, publishing the quota-
tions of hops here, gave great dissatis-
faction to the bulls, because its prices
were not up to their i ideas; and, as the
| commercial Jepo rters had been in the
habit of publishing circulars, it was re-
i solved, at a mass-meeting of the farmers,
not to subse ribe for any paper that pub-
lished
printed notice to this effect was actually

coffee, tlicre arose a mighty specu ulation
in these articles. One speculator was!
{ credited with holding about 60,000 bags
of coffee; and the speculation Th tea was
equally important. At the time of the
i famine in Bengal, Hindoostan, some !
years since, there was great speculative
activity here in rice, and some heavy
losses as weil as handsome gains were
scored. It was trading on the distress-
edness of othe TS, for the inhabitants of |
Bengal depend almost entirely on rice to
| sustain life, and it was assumed that,
when the crop failed in that region and |
famine ensued, there would be a great
demand for rice;

the poor are often the chief sufferers.

the sand as it went down. It is quite
possible that this notion may have been
strengthened by the occasional observa.

Another remarkable peculiarity, lon

produced when lightning strikes a build-

posed to be sulphurous; nowadays we
know it to be mainly due to ozone, In
fact, all the ready modes of forming
ozone, which are as yet at the disposal
of the chemist, depend upon applica-
