An elephant Is used Ia a spect
tacular play in Philadelphia. He
is kept in a stable several blocks
away. and taken to the theatre
every evening at the proper point
in the piece. One afternoon he
took 1t into his head that the time
had come to perform. Throwing
his keeper aside. he burst into the
street, overturned wagon and
several street stands on his way to
the theatre, smashed door and
took his usual place on the stage
The absence of lights and audience
seemed to convince him that he
had made a mistake, and he suf.
fered himself to be led back TO the

A New Paying Occupation
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,


The handsome Nickel Plated New
Home Lamp, being introduced to the
public this Season, is the most merito-
rious article ever offered Agents to
make money with. 1t is safer. and more
convenient than the Student Lamp,
which has heretofore had the reputa-
ton of being the Safest Lamp made; it
has a clamp to firmly attach it to the
Sewing Machine, Piano, Organ, Desk.
etc. The fear ofthe ordinary lamp be-
ing accidentally upset or thrown from
the table, is entirely relieved by this
simple clamp contrivance. 1t can be
adjusted to throw the light just where
it is wanted to suit the eyes, and can be
converted into q handsome wall lamp.
1t has the best argand burner, a filing
indicator, and convenient match box,
and its price is within the reach of eve
~ one. 1t has been fully tested and
editorily endorsed by the western
Christian Advocate" IAN. Christian
Review" Herald and Presbyter,"
journal and Messenger" and Chris
tian Standard" the leading religions
papears of Cincinnati, and is endorsed
by the Mayor and Post Master of Gin
cinnati, the Agent of the American Elk
press Company and Presidents of In
surance Companies, as being the Safest,
Most Convenient and best Lamp made.
There are three reasons why Agents
should seek such an article to csnv As
for-frst, for its absolute safety and
great convenience it is needed in every
bome-seco1d, its low price makes its
sale INNER se-third at will bea credit
to handle such an article. One south

THE MORIBUND AFFAIR.

Auditor Whitcomb Don't Care to Shoulder
Questionable Honor and 5000 or &c.
900 Debt.
Hon. o. P. Whitcomb, elected president of
the State Agricultural society at the meeting
OF the executive committee held in Rochester
Tuesday evening. is not yet ready for cosgratu-
lations. Asked yesterday by GLOBE reporter
if he should accept the honor, Mr.. Whitcomb
replied that he did not know. To some of his
Rochester friends who were interesting them
selves in securing the State exhibition at that
point, he had said in case they should succeed,
sna it was thought his services could be of
assistance to them, he would accept with pro-
viso. The proviso was that the society
should relieve itself of outstanding obi
cations, SO that the exhibition this year
could be inaugurated and carried through with
out being crippled by any dead weight of the
past. He did not know how the society stoed
financially, but he understood it had consider
able Indebtedness. If so. and such indebted
ness could not be settled before the coming ex-
hibition. he did not want anything to do with
it. In fact so far as he was personally con-
cerned, he would prefer not to have anything
to do with the presidency under any c1rcum-
stances, knowing as he did by experience the
responsibility that it entailed, but he felt he
could not decline the request of his fellow
townsmen of Rochester if the exhibition
should be given there and under the conditions
made by him as to past obligations.

CHARLES NoRDHoFF, the Washington cor
respondent of the New York Herald, tele-
graphs that there is much talk among the
third-termers of dropping Grant and taking
up Edmunds. The telegram concludes with
the statement that "Mr. Don Cameron and
those acting with him oppose the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Blaine in any contingency, and
it is understood here that they are hostile to
Mr.. Washburne, to whom the ex-President
is also believed to be opposed, for some req
son not definitely known here, but which
seems by those who assume to know to be
thought sufficiently strong to make the
third-termers hostile to Mr.. Washburne's
nomination" If the entire story is as trust
worthy as this last sentence, it is not worth
much, for no one at all conversant with the
relations between Grant and Washburne
doubts but the e1-President will do all in his
power to favor his discoverer if he cannot
carry off the prize himself.
