English readers may probably be sur.
prised to hear that twice around an
elephants foot is his height. and that
there is probably no eIeI ant in India
which measures as much as 10 feet
at the shoulder. On the other hand
what the elephant lacks in height he
makes up in longevity. The general
opinion of experienced natives is that
in captivity he usually attains so
years. and 100 years 10 exceptional
cases but our author believes that
the elephant attains at least $50
years. The question. "Where do
the elephants die?' is apparently as
far from solution as ever, for Mr..
Sanders on, like Sir Emmerson Tennet,
coufesses that he never came across
the carcass of one that had died
natural death. The Athenaeum.

Lame Sarah.

Lame Sarah" the neigh bors used
to call her, or "the cripple" but the
girl knew nothing that. She only
heard the names of love her moth Ell
and grandmother shuwered upon her.
Though at times she suffered much,
and was not really unhappy. There
was only one real trouble in Sarah 4
Iife-she could hardly remember her
father at all, and if she asked about
him her granjmOther frOwned and
her mother cried. She knew he was
not dead, for sometimes her mother
had letter from him with money in
il; out never since she had been lame
had Sarah seen her father.
Poor child she did not know that
her own father was the cause of all
her suffering-that i'm his drunken fu-
~ he had thrown her headlong down
the stairs, When ne saw what he
had done he was sobered. He thought
she would die, and so he ran away to
escape punishment; and when he
heard that she still lived, but was
crippled, he could not bear to come
back. Whether he still drank no one
knew. Now and then he sent them
money, but the poor wile had to sew
from morning to night to keep the
wolf from the door. Still Sarah had
everything they could get to tempt
her appetite, and they tried to be
bright and cheerful for her sake.
At last one day. when grandma had
gone out, Sarah said: Mother, | do
wish you'd let me write a note to IA
Their. You know / can write quite
nicely now. / want to see him so
much Won't you let me wIite?
The mother did not know what to
say. She knew that her mother would
net hear Of asking Sarah's father to
come hack. Mrs. Price, the grand
mother, was a stern woman. Let
him drink himself to death-only let
him keep away" she would often say.
But his wife fOrgave him, and she
lor ged to tell him so. She felt that
her child's wish might be given her
by God, and dared not refuse.
''Well, dear, you write and I'll post
1t but never say q word to grandma"
So, whenever the two were alone,
Sarah would ask for her letter and
painfully write a few more WORDS
At last it was finished, and her moth
or, without reading it, sent it TO the
father praying that it might touch
his heart. About a week after, as Sa-
rah sat trying TO play with her doll,
but secretly fretting a little, because
che had 10 answer to her letter,
knock came at the door and in walked
a tall man. Sarah guessed in a mo-
meut who it was, but her mothers
cry, Frank! Frank!'zz would have
told her.
"I'm come back. Sarah herself
asked me and, wife, I've never touch
cd u drop sinca."-
"Hush!" whispered the wife. "Sa-
rah knows nothing of that"
God be thanked for that! thought
she knew. I've not made money, |
but I've been steady.
The poor man could hardly bear to |
look at the crippled child, but after
day or two Sarah's favorite resting
place was in her fathers strong arms,
and the two were hardly ever separate.
AS Sarah grew older aud understood
how it was she had become crippled,
she often said that since it opened
her fathers eyes to see the danger of
she was glad it happened.
But, o. il was fearful price TO pay.
May none of YouIisk it by touching
strong liquor!

b. F.B.
One more unfortunate,
Bottled again,
Dead for a third time,
Smothercd with pain.
Speak Of him tenderly,
Run MOTIF tease;
If he'll bat stay dead,
Leave him at ease.
Make no deep scrutiny
Into his mutiny,
For he damaged himself.
The help that he sought,
And the votes that he bought,
Drew from his own pelf.
Wake not that voice Of his,
Language unchoice Of his,
Blackguard-a at best.
Stir not those lies of his,
And from those eyes Of his
Dreadfully staring
With cOckeyed obliquity.
Look there's NO bearing,

Squint Of iniqnity,

Lay him out teuderly,
Touch him with care,
Stir not his cussedness
To get mp any rear;
Knowing his cheekiness,
And energy evil,
And hoping with meekness
He's gone to the devil.

Capt. BOgardus the Champion of the

HIS CLOSE AND EXCITING CONTEST WITH THE
BEST SHOT IN ENGLAND.
A telegram from London, August 9Th, gives
the ioowi3g interesting particulars Of the
ternatiOnal shOOtlng-match between Capt. A.

Mr.; Aubrey Coventry, the best shot in Great
the International Gun and Polo Club, at Pres

people, INCLUDING many Americans, resident

sporting and international senses, excited in
tense interest, and the result adds another to
the many laurels already won abroad by Amer.
leans in the field OF manly sports.
The match was for 5000 a side, each con-
testant to shoot at 100 BIRDS with 80 yards rise,
lated that the result should decide the cham
pionship of the world in bird shooting. The
guns used were double barreled, with charges
fixed by the London Gun Club rules. w.
The betting was very heavy and largely in
favor OF Mr.; Coventry, the failure Of Capt: BO-
On hay
his Skill. The Americans, who knew thor
oughly what he could do, took all the bets Of
fered: and judging from the large odds given
on MIR. Coventry, must have Melted a very
respectable amount in the aggregate. Up to
to-day, and even up to short time before the
opening of the contest, $500 to 1915 and 800
was offered on Mr.. Coventry, but the conf
dence OF the Americans, and other supporters
Of Capt. Bogardus, effected a change in the
odds, and lust before the shooting they were
little in favor of the American.
The weather was fine ard the wind very
light, but the shooting by both men at the first
25 birds was una ccOuntably bad. Bogardus
only succeeded in killing II of his Is, and Gov
entry Jared even worse, getting only Is. From
this point however, the shooting began to i'm
prove, and at the end of the second Is the
score was 81 each. BOgardus had very bad
luck, three of his birds falling dead Just be.
yond the line. At his fifty -ffth shot Bogardus
missed, and Coventry led. BOgardus missed
his fifty-seventh bird, and Coventry his fifty
ninth. At the end of the third Is birds Coyen-
try had killed IS, and BOgardus 81. Coventry
missed his seventy-sixth bird. but Bogardus
lost his eighty second. Coventry then led until
the eighty ninth. when the scores were again
even. BOgardus missed his ninety-irst bird,
and Coventry once more led, but he missed his
ninety. sixth and ninety-seventh birds, while
BOgardus lost no more, ending the fourth Is
birds by score Of q. to COventry's 20. The
excitement was intense during the last Is birds,
for 1t was not until the very last shot which
was fired by BOgardus, that 1t was decided
whether the latter had won or the match was
a tie. Captain Bogardus was the winner Of the
contest by one bird, the score standing:
BOgardus, ~; Coventry, rs.
B0gardus was heartily cheered by the great
thrOng at the end.
