Anril 18.—A black jaguar from Brazil, one of the rarest of the cat tribe, recently has been added to the collection of the United States national zoological park here. Dr. William M. Mann, director, stated that this is the only specimen now living in the United States, ad the third specimen to be imported into this country, so far as his records show. The new animal, a female, is a splendid specimen, about 18 months old. She has not yet been named. The national zoological park also has been the beneficiary of the gift of four infant wart-hogs, presented by Mr. and Mrs. Wart-Hog, resident on the premises. 'The parent animals were brought back from Africa by the Sinith-sonian-Chrysler expedition a few years ago. and previously have become the parents of two litters.

April 18.—For weeks Irving Park police listened to complaints by Mrs. Belle Chenoweth that her husband was trying to kill her.

Two weeks ago Mrs. Chenoweth left home after accusing her husband of poisoning her tea. Thursday she reappeared, stayed a short time and then left again, going to the office of her attorney, Frank Zaleski. “I’ve. just killed my husband.” she said. “If you don't believe it, go and see. Here are the keys.” Zaleski thought no more about the incident until Thursday night. With a squad of police he went to the Chenoweth home and found the husband dead, shot three times.
