There were many strange animals at Madison Square Garden, Now York, during the recent animal show, but tlio strangest of them all was a steer with three horns, three eyes nnd threo nostrils. He Is the atrungest animal In the counfry, In fact. His owner calls him a “three time winner." Each of the quocr animal’s throe horns Is perfectly formed. Two of them are where tho horns of a perfect steer should be and the third Is abont midway botween tlio others. Two of his eyes are like those of an ordinary steer. Tho third Is not fully developed, but It Is an eye nevertheless. Each of

,iho trio of nostrils la well proportioned and the animal breathes and smells with all of them. The extra horn, eye and nostril are in a straight line from the top of the head down, each being a little to the left of the middle. The amount of hooking and snorting that can be done by this marvelous beast can easily b« Imagined.
