A Parrot Perplexes the Players.

According to the Denver Tribune, a
parrot lately distinguished itself vt the
Opera House there, the manager Of
which had borrowed it from restau-
rant keeper. During the first act of the
"Old Shipmates' the bird was quiet
enough; but us it had become accus-
toned to its novel surroundings, COM
menced to display it's accomplishments,
to the amusement OF the audience and
the dismay of the actors. Lamb chops
or Dreaded vcal?' screamed Poll, bring
ing forth loud "s-sh?' to which the
bird responded with, ''Shut up-you
make me tircd!" "Quit kissing the
cook!' and volley of oaths. An act
ress pushed the cage to the wings of
the stage, to be sliced by the manager
and carried to the property-room, the
voice of the indignant parrot dying
away in the distance, until the slam
ming of the door shut it out altogether,
but not before the offender Poll had re-
venged its removal by nipping the cap
tor in the leg. A little later the man
aeer thus addressed his treasurer: ''Mr.
Morse, let it be understood, once for
all, that hereafter no living wild beast
will be introduced on our STAGE

Education Of til, Elephant.

The most striking feature in the edu-
cation of an elephant, says w. I. Horn
aday, in Popular Science Monthly for
August, is the suddenness of his transit
ton from wild and lawless denizen of
the forest to the quiet, plodding, good
tempered and cheerful beast of draught
or burden. There takes place in the
keddah, or pen OF capture, {: mighty
struggle between the giant strength Of
the captive and the ingenuity of man,
ably seconded by q few powerful tame
elephants. When he finds his strength
utterly overcome by mans intelligence
he yields to the inevitable and accepts
the situation philosophically. Sander
son once had Il narrow escape from
death while on the back of Il tame ele-
plant inside q keddah attempting to
secure wild female. She fought his
elephant long and viciously. with the
strength and courage of despair, but she
was finally overcome by superior num-
bers. Although her attack on Sander
son in the keddah was of the most muir
derous description, he states, that her
conduct after her defeat was most ex-
emplary, and she never afterward show
ed any signs of ill-temper.
Mr.. Sanderson and an elephant driver
once mounted a full-grown female ele-
plant on the sixth day after her cap
ture, without even the presence of q
tame animal. Sir Emerson Tcnnent
records an instance wherein an ele-
plant was fed from the hand on the first
night of its capture, and in y very few
days evinced pleasure at being patted
on the head Such instances rs the
above can be multiplied indefinitely. To
what else shall they be attributed than
philosophic reasoning on the part Of the
elephant? 'Hhe orany-ouian", so often
put forward rs his intellectual superior,
when captured alive ut any period Of
life than OF helpless infancy, is vicious.
aggressive, and intractable for weeks
and months, if not during the remain
der of its life. Orangs captured when
fully adult exhibit the most tigcr-like
ferocity and are wholly intraclablc.
If dogs are naturally superior to ele-
plants in general intellect, it should be
as easy to tame and educate newly
caught wild dogs or wolves of mature
age rs newly caught elephants. But,
so far from this being the case, it is safe
to assert that itwould be impossible to
train the most intelligent company of
pointers, settlers, OF collics ever got to-
gether to perform the fcats accomplish
ed with such promptness and accuracy
by all regularly trained circus Gle
plants.
The successful training of all ele-
plants up to the required working point
is so fully conceded in India that the
market value OF an animal depends
wholly upon his age, sex, build. and the
presence or absence OF good tusks. The
animals education is either sufficient
for the buyer, or, if not he knows it can
be made so

The Larder Of Watering Place Hotel.

1t seemed like a vast quartermaster'
supply warehouse on the plains. There
was 1lourpiled up by rods, hams stretch
ed along by rods from beams. The
larder filled with chickens in ice, fish
in ice, steaks and chops sufficient for a
regiment, and the steward sat at his
desk in the basement taking down ev-
erything that anybody wanted. ''For,'
said the proprietor, .'here is where I
make or lose" The wine rooms were
twice as long as liquor stores; the kitch-
en- was big enough to have a sham bat
tie in, and on the payroll thus early
in the season were $50 persons. '.When

tor, ''they eat my head rightup; it is in
the marketing that one must save or

Clubs Other Than Policemen's,

But for my own part have little love
for the ':Stand-by" Club, or any other.
l think that all clubs and all clans are
to be despised by every man who feels
strong and sufficient in himself. Iwant
no victories that l can't win without the
help OF any one. No; clubs, particular
~ those meant for mutual comfort and
protection, are selfish and beget selfish
ness. Let us rather make the whole
world one vast club room, counting each
man member, and so, giving help to
all, receiving help from all, march side
by side, keeping step with the humblest,
helping the weakest, shielding the poor
est, asking no favor, but taking the
brunt of the fight like man and a SOL
der in the front of battle. -JoaQuias NIL

A boy-no matter his name, for he
sits in Parliament nova boy who was
both nervous and credulous. had been
made to believe that decoction of fresh
walnut juice used as ointment would
harden any part of the body to which
it was applied. Having been complain
ed of on a half-holiday and anticipating
that he should have to '.stay at nine' on
the morrow, he procured some green
walnuts, squeezed their juice out into a
basin, and daubed himself freely with
the liquid over night. Next morning
he found to his dismny that he had
stained himself q rich mahogany color,
which would not wash off, 1t was in
vain that he rubbed himself with a soapy
sponge and called upon his neighbors to
assist him in this operation but the stains
would not go; several of his friends,
however, treasured him by saying that
they did not show much, and it was on
the faith of these statements that the
self-painted one went into school. At
O'Clock he appeared in the swishine-
room, and being too shy to give the
head master HUT of what had happen
ed, knelt down without a word. DR.. G..
fairly recoiled. But when the sixth form
pr@postor, who had got an inkling of
the story, laughingly explained how and
for what purpose walnut juice had been
used, the doctors mirth was too great
to allow him to proceed with the casti-
CATION. He threw down the birch and
hurriedly left the room. s:

must have been thinking Of business.
He went out to see II man. He said it

knew it. H"! Hal!

he went out? Yes, just ,!ree times. 1t.
was four act play. now. l remember.
He was awful quiet and tlitn whisper
to me rs much as lie usually does. l
wonder if he really loves me. 1t must
be an awful bore to have so much bus
mess on ones mind that one can't be
brilliant all the time. ! thought once
when we were driving home that Ar
chic was going TO propose. lie acted
so strange And ut one time thought
he was going to sleep. Ha! ha! The
reason t thought he was going to pro-
pose was because lie was SO flushed in
the face, and acted like y cat in a
strange garrett. ;.
O, my, what should | have done if
Archie had actually proposed2 be-
| lieve I'd have struck him in fun. q,
no, wouldn't. | would have kept
him over Until after marriage, and then
struck him in earnest. lla! ha! Let
me see, Archie has told me just five
times in three weeks how becomingly l
was dressed. And once he said | was
as handsome rs Il queen. The very
next day I saw picture OF Queen Vic
toria, and couldn't help wondering if
Archie was making sport OF me. 1t
couldn't be, though; Archie is no sport.
But he said something about queens
last night in the carriage, something
let me sce-somcthing about three
queens and an ace. He Il queer boy.
He was going to say more, too, for he
| whispered, ''OniV got y uoliaf-can
come in,'' and hadn't asked him to
come in, for we hadn't reached home
yet, and did the gump think | would
have charged him u dollar to come in:
These men arc queer fish. The othel
dav I told Archie that heard he was
making considerable money nowadays,
and asked him what he was doing.
He said he made it down to the Ole
Oaken Bucket shop. l wonder wha
Archie meant by that, anyway. Never
mind, if he brings two pounds OF vanil
la caramcls. instead of the ten cents
worth he did the last time, all will be
forgiven and no questions asked.-1eG

A Dreadful Scene.

A horrible affair took place recently
It Rio Grande del Sur, near to the Uru-
guayan frontier, says the Montevideo
Rdzon. A young farmer, was bitten by
q mad dog, and remedies were immedi-
ately applied to the wound. Cauteriza-
ton was resorted to, and there was ev-
cry reason to believe that the virus had
not entered the victim system. When
the accident occurred the young man
was about to marry, but in consequence
of the untoward occurrence the cere-
mony was postponed for three months,
when the medical men who were con-
suited on the case gave as their unani-
nous opinion that there was not the
slightest ground for experimenting any
danger from the bite. The marriage
took place on the farm and was cele-
brated with the customary festivities
After the nuptial supper was over the
bridegroom appeared to be seized with
q fit of melancholy. One OF loves ca
prices, said somebody After supper
came the ball, and when this was at it's
height the newly welded couple with
drew from the festive scene and retired
to their apartment. About an hour af-
terward the house resoundcd with fero-
cious cries, intermingled with shrieks
and groans. AS soon Us the guests had
recovered from their stupefaction, they
started in the direction of the cries.
They proceeded from the nuptial cham
Der. The door was burst open and q
horrible spectacle presented itself. On
the floor lay the young bride in pool
of blood. She still breathed, but her
body was torn and bitten as if she had
been seized by tiger. In the corner
of the room was the bridegroom, cover
ed with blood andfoaming at the mouth,
scratching, biting and tearing away at
the wall and furniture. With q sudden
bound he sprang like tiger upon the
invaders of his lair, and he would have
made one or more victims had not a
brother of the dying bride sent a bull
let crashing through the madman's
brain.

''But, my friend, you mistake me en-

other, looking more treasured. care

anywhere and just job me out of the last

It would be interesting to know what
the clerical gentleman wanted to say to
that proposition. Brooklyn Eagle.
