Dr. Mann is bound for the East to bag giraffe and other species of ani- mals to enhance the ever-growing col- lections at the Washington Zoo. With the many additions being made, quar- ters will have to be doubled soon, offl- clals declare, or no more can be added. Little is known what new friends are being brought to the Zoo by Dr. Keller and others of the expedition to Sumatra, as no list of thelr cap- tures has been received by A. Baker, acting director of the Zoo. Among them, however, are three , one of them of the constrictor . which were shipped ahead by r. Keller, and which arrived at the Zoo this morning. The constrictor, & python, resembles its big brother, the boa, but is only about § fedt long. The other two are green, non-poisonous snakes about § feet long. Hornbill a Rarity. The hornbill being transported under Dr. Keller's personal care probably will provide the liveliest in- terest for Washington's bird lovers. Hornbills have been seen at the local Zoo before, but none are there now. They live but a few vears and raise young hornbills, but seldomly in this country, away from their natural habitat. Mr. Hornbill gets his name from his enormous bill, which is of the texture of ivory. This bill is very useful to him in his meals. It is not known how- ever, whether the Creator gave Mr. Hornbill a great bill so he could eat large chunks of meat, or whether he enjoys such a diet because of his mammoth bill. Mr. Hornbill kas a horse cry which sounds very much like the bark of a dog. He is about the size of a hen. ST RUSSIANS PLAN CONCERT.
