ZOOVILLE CHATTER A WEEKLY PUBLICATION FOR CHILDREN, OLD AND YOUNG. VOL. I, 1 NO. 3 ZOOVILLE, GRANT PARK, JULY 21, 1906. PRICE—LESS. ZOOVILLE CHATTER. I. M. MONK, Editor. Entered as second-class matter July 7, j**. at ZooTilto Tost Office, Grant Park, under Act of the Junglebladt, March J, try. "It Is Indeed a desirable thins to ba ».-:i decended. bnt the glory belong* to ocr ancestors."—Plotarrh. Feathered Philosophy. ■This world Is filled with such a number of things, rm sure we should be. as happy as kln*a” It s nice, even rather more, say de lightful. to be an Idealist, when the ,nmbre old world Is becoming more and more materialistic. Even In things most prosaic, there la the poetic If only v e care to aee tt or rather allow our selves to feel It—you know that la the real test of poetry—to feel It There la good In all things, you know, “ev erything la pleasing and " well, not even man la always vile—only those that destroy the feathered kingdom and the women that bedeck themselves In the false plumpge »ke the Jackdaw. Some one said, "Oo to the ant, thou sluggard, consider hla ways and”— sell, everyone knows the rest. That was excellent advice. If It were fol lowed throughout life, you would have a nice toilsome time and some day you would, perhaps, be a fine old bird like the baldheaded eagle, Mr. Rock-a-fel- low—that’s If you follow the ways of the ants and be wise. But there la an other road: Look at the happy bird family, soaring through the sunshine, singing the while we work, happy In our homes and abroad. If there Is something we do not like In one place, why the world la filled with such a number of things and Is so very large that we simply go-aomewhere else. Bo don’t you think It better to go to the bird, thou pessimist, consider his ways and be happy? • Natural History. With the possible exception of the mule, the goose Is the most abused of all birds (no one will deny the mule Is a bird.) Humans are often compared to it—the goose. Evidently the goose la considered silly by humans. The best excuse for such Ignorance Is that hu mans are human. But the goose—this Is a wise old bird. From Its quills have down the greatest books ever writ. To think of this bird’s power It Is to shud der. for how true Is that old saw about Sporting Extra! MISCELLANEOUS SP0RTIN6 NEWS ALL FROM ZOOVILLE. ■ Won = By Our 8portin’ Editor. = The biggest bunch of ovents In a sportin’ way yet pushed thro^thla burg, has at last come to. a close after four days’ battle, In which every Inhabitant of Zoovllle that had any of the nimble cocoanuta up-on-the-slde took a turn at umpiring. Each of the hundred or more umpa were successfully put out of business, so the spectators and the dia mond dust gods are all happy. The game was won, hut which aggregation snatched the laurels can’t exactly be said, as the countin' machine used In tallying got a hot box about the end ot the day. However, all seem to be In favor of this way of solving the prob lem—by dividing the number of hits by the number of errors. This, In my opin ion, Is far superior to leaving such an Important thing as who won to the number of runs. The hits and errors show the real stuff In the goods, while a run Is often made by luck, as when Hippo, under the pretense ot having something to say to the pitcher, put His Umps out ot business. The bases, like Hippo, were at the time full, and the runners came home the shortest way. In three of the coses this way waa over the body of Hla Umps. When His Umps finally opened his eyes, of course, he could not tell ex actly via what route the runners wan dered home, although he had a strong feeling that they had passed very near the pitcher's box. Bo It Is certainly best to figure the score out as haa been Mated, but unfortunately the official •core-keeper, after reaching 891 errors in the first Inning, had to be taken from the field and have his arm amputated to give It a rest, as It positively re fused to stop marking, although It had the writers' cramp. The game was finally brought to Its successful close by the bats, the flies and the fowls joining tholr forces with the rest of the blrdf and the beasts In terested and cleaning out all the public the pen and the sword. This Is also a rich old bird, for it Is never seen with out a yellow back bill. This is also a very good old bird; It continually takes baths, and Is, therefore, cleanly, and cleanliness Is next to Godliness. spirited citizens that thought they could umpire. • As the manner discussed failed to set tle on who’s who, the score has been left to the sporting editor of The Zoo- vine Chatter. Let It be known that It stood thuoly: Bird 1 Beasts Won There can be no serious difficulties brought about by this decision, for al though the Birds were t, the Beasts won. and then the Birds did 1, to all should be satisfied. Amusing Incident Really the only amusing Incident or rather the only Incident out of the or dinary, happened after the 1871st run had been made. Joe Lion, who waa umpa pro tem, earned some little ex citement and a great deal of amuse ment by taking a round of the bases, eating the players as he came to them. After thla Incident It waa decided to change the sides. Those that had the Ins put up an awful kick, but Joe didn’t seem to mind. The other side argued that their opponent# had been given In side Information. Nothing could be found to exactly cover the situation in the rule book, so, to restore peace, Joe ate up the bleachers.

Crlmmlns and Gore, In the rousing mualeal comedy entitled “A Warm Match,” are next week's attraction for the Casino. The show Is built on en tirely new lines, the situations being positively ludicrous, causing no end of genuine amusement. It la a load of harmless fun, a hysterical, screaming laugh from start to flnlsh. The enthu siastic applause would be hard to ex cel. It Is what you often hear of, but seldom see, namely, a genuine comedy novelty. It la full of convulsing whim sicalities and will cause a real sensa tion of fun. Crlmmlns and Gore are premiers In their respective characters. Miss Gore's lough girl stands out aa one of the best caricatures ever seen on the stage. Her remarkable change from Drydock Lis to a swell .Boston Belle In forty seconds la unique. Quick changes are numerous on the stage. However, the credit dus to Miss Gore denotes a wonderful diversity of ability and character studlouaneas. The ex tremity must be seen to be fully ap preciated. As for Mr. Crlmmlns, he Is a little of everything—comedian, mimic, acrobat, dancer, and all. They have surrounded themselves with an excel lent cast of artistic ability who have unquestioned talents. The production Is loaded with novel specialties and flftesn musical numbers, embracing the latest New York successes. The com- jany Includes Charlie Hanley, Harry HcAvoy, Mile. Valescs, Thomas Jarvis, W. A. White, Nan Ooldls, Bertha Mon tague and a pretty chorus. A WELL APPOINTED COL- LEOE.
