Bamboo the New Chimpanzee at Regent's Park Zoo
Bamboo, the new chimpanzee at Regent's Park Zoological Gardens, was purchased about a year ago by Lieutenant Henry K. Sayers. He arrived frail, showed violent tempers when separated from his keeper, and displayed a peculiar attachment to clothing and certain foods. Despite fits of rage, he treats strangers with kindness and remains distant from other animals, exhibiting notable cunning and cleanliness.

Nonsense and sport scenes from an era of orders and tournaments
The piece rails at costly tournaments and censors play while praising practical profits. It contrasts Earl of Eglinton’s expenses with other amusements, decries political economists as nonsense makers, and tangentially notes perch and fish variants, Prussian military service rules, and a local street incident.
