Saluting an Alderman.

Some time ago new man was put on
the Austin police force. As he was a
gawky sort of customer, one of the
aldermen undertook TO make fun Of
him in the presence OF a number of gen
tlemen.
"Now." said the alderman, would
YOU salute an alderman if YOU were to
meet him on. the street after dark?n
Certainly, certainly would. | would
take off my hat to him.
That's right am glad to see that
YOU are beginning to understand your
duties. Now. suppose crowd of men
were to pass you after dark, and you
did not know who they were, what
would sou do if it was late, and"
III they were drunk and raising q
row, Id let them pass.
Would YOU attempt to arrest the dis
turbers of the public peace?'
20, no! / would salute them very po-
liteiy, for there would be at least one
alderman among them. certain sure.
responded the new policeman, calmly
biting off fresh chow of tobacco.
The listeners, at whom the smart al
derman had been wnking, he expecting
them to laugh. did laugh profusely.
They held their sides, but the smart al
derman's voice did not mingle with the
chorus, as he had somehow or other
captured suspicion that he himself was
the man that they were smiling at

The First Elephant in America.

A correspondent of the Boston Jour

bition in New England and said to have
been the first in the United States was
killed at Alfred, Maine, in the year 1917
about one mile west from the village, in
piece of woods near the Round pond,
so called on the old post road leading
to Denver, n. H. A man by the name
of Davis had an alteration with the
proprietor of the menagerie, the day
previous, while on exhibition at Alfred,
and sought revenge by shooting the
elephant The affair caused great SEN
sation at the time throughout New Eng
land. The locality is known and point
ed out to this day rs the spot where tie
elephant was killed.

the Front Row.

New York, May 1i.-Netwithstanding
the pleasant weather an immense crowa
gathered in Madison Square Garden
tonight to witness the glove con-
test between Sullivan, the champion
Of America, and Mitchell, introduced
as the champion of England. Holders OF
one dollar tickets are admitted at the ave-
nue. entrance, while holders Of two dollar
tickets entered at the Madison avenue
door. There were about 1000 persons
inside OF the building, and boxes were
filled with prominent club men and poll
ticians
Roscoe CenkIing and Charles A. Dana
had front seats in the space reserved pear
the platform for the press. There was
great applause when Sullivan appeared up
on the stage in fighting costume. Mitchell!
was also applauded. Before time was called
Captain Williams cautioned the men TO
work in earnest from the start; sullivan
went viciously at Mitchell, and the latter
in getting out his way fell twice. Waiting
an opportunity he got in quick blows and
suIIiyan Went Down.
Ee got M and closed with Mitchell and
there was some close fighting until time
was called and the men ordered 10 break.
In the third round the excitement was
intense. Mitchell got in some sharp
body blows on Sullivan, but
the latter delivered his blows
with great directness and force, and the
Fnplishman was twice knocked down.
Third time he rose quite groggy. when
Capt. Williams rushed upon the stage and
ordered them to quit. 1t was lucky for
the Enghshman, as he was badly used up
and whipped man.
