A 0reenback Labor Talk.

Ii was announced that there would be
a meeting OF the Greenback labor Party
at the Hope hose house last
night, and at eight O'Clock scribe from
this Office wandered thither to learn
what might be said and done. But the
building was dark and closed and empty
and he was forced TO the conclusion that
no meeting was TO be held. 81 don't

collected in the doorway. 1T was dis
tictly announced in the Lott,r that
meeting Was to be held and don't see

because the delegates are at Charleston;

me it's the Republicans in this part OF
the State that want to fuse and the
Greenbackers down below"
AT this point in his easy flow of CON-

expected to gain bv fusion. He said
Gain? Why what did they gain in

Elephants High.

The two larger elephants belonging to
the Robinson circus are in the habit OF
frequently maniiesting what pure Gus
sedness an animal can display. lester-
day morning during the parade there
was considerable excitement in the
neighborhood OF Fishers foundry, occa-
stoned by the pranks OF the large ele-
phant. When he reached the
alley by Colonel O'Brien's office, he
suddenly turned into the pavement
There was a scattering OF people and q
screaming OF women as the huge bulk
approached them and the keeper leaped
from his horse To subdue his charge.
He carried an iron prod, but the beast
paid but little attention TO his vigorous
punching. But when he turned the
hook and caught into the flesh near the
ear, the elephant screamed with pain
and suffered himself to be led back to
his place.
At the postofiice this scene was re-
peated. The brute started for the side
walk, and the crowd fled precipitately
TO the building. The other elephant as
sisted in this grstuitous performance
and cut few capers on his own az.
count. The iron hooks were again
called into requisition, aud the donble-
tailed beasts were subdued. The ele.
phant may be "a docile animal, " as the
school books say, but he is an ugly and
a treacherous one, when he takes a no.
ton.
