The London Zoo is, perhaps, the
most ppopular seieap fie institution in
Europe. and its expenses are heavy. A
recent report says that the death rate
of its denizens is high, about 379 per
1.000, and about 1,200 animals are added
every year, of which one-sixth are par-
chased. The provision bill comes to
£4,000 ayear, which means that
it costs only a little more than a pen -
ny a day per capita to feed 2,500 ani -
mals,
The flesh -eating animals are not sup-
plied with prima joints of beef at this
rate. Their fare is horseflesh and goat -
flesh. Hay, clover, bran, oats, maize,
sheat, and barley for grass and grain
eaters from a large item, and 244
bushels of canary, hemp, and millet seed
are demanded by the birds. The fish -
eaters consume seventeen tons of fish
annually. There are some odd items in
the commissariat. One can understand
the fifteen tons of biscuits, the four
tors of rice, and the three tons of 0-
intoes, but the 3,400 bunches of water-
cress, the 1,200 quarts of shrimp, the
7,GU0 fowls' heads are amort the paper-

by visitors are car from sic 1 in •the

keg nuts figure •in the annual eonsump-•
tion. Dates, grapes and raisins have a
plane in the menu. Oranges are eaten
to the tuna of 17,000, to say nothing of
to
14,000 bananas. The children's buns
are cloying, but they are supplement-
ed officially by 5,500 quarters loaves
and 5,100 quarts of milk. There is also

THE MISSION OF RELIEF,
Upon learning this discouraging news
demon-
the excitement became morn demon-
strative. It was found that all the
mine foremen, sic erintendents and boss-
es who had gone to supervise the work
were with Those who are imprisoned.
This gave the {work of relief no syste-
mantic head, but the rescuers, provid-
ing themselves with safety lamps bur-
ried into the mine carriage and were
6
lowered 1,000 feet or more on the ince-
cion of relief. They were John Doyle,
Charles McDonald and James Tenyon•
After a half-hour of suspense they re-
Wined with expressions of discourage-
went and the story that the cave-in
had become more extensive and that
the search party faced •inevitable tan-
ger and that no news had been se-
cured of the unfortunate men. With no
however, they again went down
to the foot of the shaft with other men
whatho
baffled and discuuiaged they repeated
their story of defeated effort. For a
re-
third time, at 2 p.m. to -day, with re-
newed vigor and still more men, they
went beneath the surface into the pit
and tried by the counter -gangway to
reach by a circuitous route the unfor-
tunate prisoners. After a journey of
nearly a thousand feet they met ob-
structions innumerable, the force of the
concussion having created disastrous
havoc, brattice work, pillars, air con-
dune, doors, cars and top rock having
been piled promiscuously so as to inter-
fere with all efforts that could be made
by any human being. Then to add to
thetrouble an so accumulation CIS onclanof gas
efforts to reach anywhere near the im-
prisoned miners. Not subdued by these
obstacles they again ineffectively tried
their last resource to relieve and re-
cover the men. General Manager John

days, made his appearance at the shaft
to give instructions. Special messes-
rocs tailed to the shaft all of the com-

A CITY IN THE SKY,

Upside Down -A Beautiful Mirage
Over lake Ontario.
A despatch' from Os{{*ego says: -Just
before the sun sank to rest in the
blue waters of Lake Ontario, on Thurs-
da,y night persons along the eke front
made from the lover bridge witnessed
# 4 most beautiful and rarest
. f the.c•
phenomena witnessed in this climate-
a mirllge. It was first discovered short-
ly aft 7 o'clock. The Duck And Gal-
to Kin s-
soup elands, the entranceg
ton harbor, the masts of vessels, and
what appeared to be buildings like for-
ti.fications hung suspended in the
sky.
It was a remarkable picture and was
{witnessed for more than half an hour
hundreds of people, anti then grade-
by y,
ally faded awn Records of such
kept,
them on Lake Ontario are not
to be had. That of Thursday evening,
however, is said to have been the clear-
est and most distinct seen in many
years from Oswego. A mirage on the
lake is not infrequent in midsummer,
but is rarely (seen at this season of the
year. When first it was seen on Thurs-
day evening, it is said by some who
were on the old pier that the reflection
of the sunlight upon what appeared to
be church spires could he plainly seen.
One large building, evidently a church,
had the spires hanging down almost
to the water.
The mirage is most frequently seen
in hot climates, more especially on the
sandy n plainsof on which a %sults
from the unequal density of the differ -let
eat layers of the air when they are
expanded by contact with heated soil
or water. The hot sun has warmed
the water, and no doubt Thursday af-
ternoon the cool currents of air that
x-
came, into contact with it were ex-
panded,
To see th'e city of Kingston suspend-
ed in the sky over Lake Ontario, and

treetshhead down,abitants iskais sight seen but about
once in a lifetime. However, is was
not quite as vivid as `thiat but it was
all very beautifti.,
AN OLD COIN.
