Elephants as Timber Carriers.

One of the great industries of Bur-
NAH is the timber trade. The teak
wood, which is the chief timber cut and
shipped. is very heavy, and requires
prodigious force to handle it: and as the
Burmese are not far enough advanced
to use machinery for the purpose, they
use elephants, and bravely do the noble
beasts perform their task. In the tim.
Der yards, both at Rangoon and at Maul-
main, all the heavy work OF drawing
ard piling the logs is done by them. l
have never seen animals showing such
intelligence, and trained to such dOcili-
ty and obedience. In the yard We visi-
ted there were seven elephants. five OF
which 1t the moment were at Work.
Their wonderful strength came into
play in moving huge pieces of timber:
l did not measure the logs, but should
think many were at least twenty feet
long, and q foot square. Yet a male 81
ephant would stoop down and run his
tusks under a log, and throw his trunk
over it, and walk off with it as lightly
as q gentleman would balance his bam'
boo cane on the tip Of his finger. Placing
it on the pile, he would measure it with

II q still heavier log needed 70 be
moved on the ground TO some other
part Of the yard, the mahOut, sitting on
the elephants head, would tell him what
TO do, and the great creature seemed TO
have a perfect understanding OF his
masters will. He would put out his
enormous foot ond push it along; or he
would bend his head, and c%rouchiDg
half way TO the ground and doublingup
his trunk in front, throw his whole
weight against it, and thus, like a ram,
would butt" the log into its place; or,
if needed to be taken a greater distance,
he would put a chain around it and drag
t off behind him. The female elephant
especially was employed in drawing, as,
having no tusks, she could not lift like
her big brothers, but could only move
by her power of traction on attraction.
Then using her trunk as deftly as a la
dy would use her fingers, she would I'M
tie the knot or unhitch the chain and
return to her master, perhaps putting
out her trunk to receive q banana as q
reward for her good conduct. 1t was a
very pretty sight, and gave US a new
idea Of the value OF these noble crea-
lures, and of the way in which they can
be trained for the service of a man.

The NIa1ara Suicide.

The Niagara Falls Gazette has CLEAN
ed the following possible solution to the
cause of Miss J. J. Schofield's sad sui
eide by throwing herself into the Nj
agara recently: The deceased lady
was engaged to MI. G. A.. Kelly, Of
Toronto, who shortly before her death
received from her a letter in which that
lady, in an incoherent manner, makes
disposition Of some Of her personal
property, and in which she expresses a
belief that she is rapidly failing in men,
tai and physical health; in short. that
she believed she was succumbing to
brain fever, and that her friends would
never see her again. Miss SchOfield
was engaged to be married to Mr.. Kelly
this fall. Last year two brothers and a
sister died Of consumption. Miss. 5.
has had premOnitOry symptoms of the
same dread disease, and has been in
New York City under eminent medical
treatment therefor. She had improved
in health in the Adirondack region, and
after her trip to New York appeared to
be still further improved in health, un-
til she i%mprudently ventured out and
caught cold, which settled on her lungs,
and necessitated imperative orders
from her physician to return home. 1t
would seem that she got as far as Buff

and Russians who fell in the affair OF
The 18th of September, between the
hostile lines, and whose dead bodies
still lie there injecting the air. The
Red Cross and the Turkish substitute,

run UP, and the allied troops ceased
firing, but the enemy pounded away as
usual at the ROumanian siege works.
and although l believe that some con-
ventiOn was agreed to, it is scarcely
likely that it will be respected in the
future any more than it was on the
last occasion, when two surgeons and
four men with stretchers were killed
while attempting to aid the wounded
who had fallen during the assault on the
enemy's redOubt. As not a day passes
without a skirmish of some kind be-
tween the OutpOsts or the advanced
works, q number of men are wounded,
and if they are not lucky enough to be
able to get out of the zone OF flre
with their comrades as these retire,
their sufferings and fate are too dread
full to think of. Sometimes they die OF
thirst or of their wounds, or now of the
inclemency of the weather. and II they
venture to make a movement are at

lain in a trench three OF four days at q
time, without food or drink, in the sick

never came. Their fellow soldiers
could hear their groans and cries, but it
was certain death to venture into the
open, and there they were forced to re-
main, prodting by each moment ct
darkness to crawl to the next shelter,
to recommence their painful journey on
the succeeding night. The distance
was often incOnsiderable, but n man
with his foot shot of, managed, after
seventy.two hours Of weary wait

had been in the affair, where, from
want of support, Gen. SkObeleff had
been forced back, and was wounded
early in the day. The ambulance peo-
pie had not seer him, and he had been
left behind, so he crept under a pile OF
