OLD CARLOS ELEPHANT NURSE.
New York Sun, June 23.l

Betsy, the largest of the elephants in Bar
NUNS Hippodrome, is twenty eight years old.
She was imported from Germany five years
ago, and with her came Carlo, dog that had
long been her inseperable companion. She
refused to leave the ship until Carlo preceded
her, and in her subsequent appearances in the
ring he always trotted ahead of her. Night
and day they have been together. Carlo is six
teen years old, and his death is daily expected
Six months ago he became too i'll to go into the
ring, and Betsy has since been with difficulty
induced to perform without him. He is failing
fast, and Betsy seems to know it. Formerly
she tossed him playfully with her trunk, now
she only pats him softly, and rolls him over
very gently. A yelp or whine calls her at once
to his side, and she gets angry when anybody
nut George Moore, her keeper, touches him.
A few months ago. in anticipation of Carlos
death, new Carlo was put into the pen with
Betsy and the younger elephants. 1t was hoped
that he might gradually get place in the ele-
phantine affections, SO that things might go
on smoothly after old Carlos death. The new
dog, however, is only tolerated, and sick old
Carlo gets all the petting.
Last Sunday afternoon the neighborhood OF
the hippodrome was alarmed by that hideous
kind OF believing in which enraged elephants
have no rivalry. George Moore, the keeper,
ran in from the street, and found the four ele
plants frantic with rage because the new Car
10 was fighting old Carlo. They had torn
down the hangings and ornaments of their pen
in their efforts to reach the dogs, who were III
the passage outside of the pen, Betsy being
the leader of the movement Her believing
was heard two blocks away. Moore seized the
iron hook with which he enforces obedience,
and at length, old Carlo having been rescued
from his more vigorous rival, prodded the ele
plants into subsection. All day yesterday
Betsy was tenderer than ever in her care of
dying old Carlo, and he thanks her by licking
the trunk with which she fondles him.

THE WORLDS COFFEE CORNERED.
From the Boston Transcript,

IT IUI1I tft DUStOI IidIISCTIpV.J
The remarkable rise in the price Of coffee,
in the face of the abolition of the tariff on that
article, now turns out to have been the result
of vast speculative combination, having its
centre in Rotterdam, Antwerp and Hamburg.
From these cities the most elaborate and in
genious calculations We're circulated, alleging
short crops and increased consumption.
Meanwhile the ring kept on buying and hold
ing for high prices. Late reports are to the
effect that 100000 bags are stored at Antwerp,
with more to arrive and that the yield every
where the present year will be enormous.
Hosts Of the spectators are already ruined,
having staked their entire capital ON the risk.
