Johanna the Giantess Gorilla, the Big Blue Xosed Mandril, and many Coveted by Euro pean Zoos. r Among the thousand and one living wonders in the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show on Earth that will be seen when it comes here on Saturday, Oot. 3rd., are some very extraordinary animais. One is a giantess gorilla of the species more akin to mankind than my other, and one of those rare apes known to naturalists a. '.he bine-nosed mandrill. The gorilla is fa mous by the name of Johanna and is the widow of the great Chiko. It is the only animal in the world known to possess a convoluted brain and the organs o! speech, and considered in the scientific world to have the faculty for talking, lacking only the inherited power to speak, as well as a human being. It is a marvelous sight to watch Johanna and study lier peculiar ac tions. Sometimes she will ejaculate strange sounds phonetically approximat ing closely to words, will eat and drirk in the same manner as a child. It is high ly interesting, too, to watch the queer antios of the creature, as it is always rest less. This is the only animal of its kind now in captivity anywhere. The blue nosed mandrill is also the only ono of its kind in the country and occupios the ad joining apartment to Johanna. Withi ts sky-blue nose, brilliant red, orange, and other colors on other parts of its body the mandrill presents a most remarkable ap pearance and tonnß one of many interest ing and curious groups of rare and costly animals in the menageries. There are 24 elephants, a grenadier giraffe, an eland, an addis, wart hog.brindle gnu, Mahay tapirs, guib, several species of antelopes and others that are not to be seen in any other zoological collection either here or in Eu rope and this fact is vouched for. A flock ot giant ostrichos, too, is a feature with this year's collection. The circus this year is probadly the most meritorious of all the wonderful exhibitions Barnum & Bailey have ever gotten togather, consisting solely of champions in all lines, in the rings, in the air, or upon the ground, while its general character for superiority is con spicuous in everything. Indeed it is a most amazing and bewildering exhibition, the ne"v free street porade alone worth coming miles to se . J. R. Kearns' Auctions. Mrs. M. McSchein, near Dilks Station Oct. 13th 10 a.

THESE is considerable alarm felt iu Canada over the much dieaded rinderpest, which it is thought may be introduced in to that country through the modium of hides imported from Sooth Africa. Pro tests have been made by the leading ex perts in Canada, but their warning has had on effect on the authorities as yet. Of course a similar danger exists of the plague being brought into the United States. Pleuropneumonia among Cana dian cattlo has been traced to infected hides imported from Eagland. The danger from this disease is of oourse as nothing compared wirh ths ravages wrought by the rinderpest, which is at present decima ting so many or the herd ) in South Africa. Wtien the disease last visited England, over 73,000 head of oattle were attacked by it and 41,000 died. B. ii.
