Elephants are capable of doinga va
riety of useful services. A Singapore
lady has sent a London journal a
sketch eff elephants at work in the
timber yards of Moulmein. Under
the direction of drivers seated on
their necks, these beasts carry huge
planks, sometimes two or three to-
gether, and with great care and pre-
cision place them in stacks one over
another. The old hands are even
said to take sidelong view with one
eye closed to test the perpendicularity
of the stacks.

Native Skilled steel Workers.
I4athn in Nevv Vorlx Tr.ih1Ine


I was talking to a prominent steel manu-
facturer at Pittsburg the other day. He told
me that a few years ago they had to bring
from England nearly the whole Of the skilled
labor used in steel works, and now they en-
ployed none whatever from the other side Of
the ocean, for the best skilled labor from
England was unable to compete with the
native skilled labor, which by superior apt
ness seemed to discern and invent.

Freddie Wants a Cottage.

Newport Ok. II Special.
Poor Freddie Gebhardt is in trouble. He
cannot get a cottage to suit him. 1t is under
stood that money is really no object at all, so
long as just such house as is wanted can be
obtained. He sent Mr. Beswick here to
look for a place. Mr.. Beswick said Freddie
was very anxious the house should be in as
secluded a spot as possible; that the cottage
should he as far from any other residence as
one could be obtained, and that it must
have a water view. Mr. Beswick visited every
real estate agent in town but found trouble
with all the cottages offered. Freddie could
have a sea view and no seclnsion, or seclu-
sion without a 81 lapse OF the surf. Mr.. Bes-
wick has returned to New York to report
progress to Mr. Gebhardt. 1t is not known

occupy the house himself

went thence to Seymour, where he got the
rest of the Lewis, five in number. At Vim
cennes seven more were taken by him,
making total of twenty-three counterfeit

for term of years.

aged to bring twenty-one counterfeiters to-
gether at Upton. Ind. They came from
Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia and Michi-
gan into Upton on the same day, and on
the same night were gathered into one room,
out of which they were called under pre-
text by twos and threes to the floor below
where irons were clapped on their wrists
and they were hurried off to jail The TWEEN
ty-one were taken TO Washington next day,
where on trial, one was discharged for want
of evidence a second was granted a new

and an hour later Mccartney was indicted
and put on trial, pleaded guilty and was SEN

Higher Educatlon Of Colured Girls

PrOVldence lK. II JOURNAL.
Richmond dispatch published yesterday
morning gave premature and imperfect an
nouncement OF the benehcent purpose of
Deacon J. C. Hartshorn. That gentleman
has given $4,000 toward the establishment
of a school at the South for the higher edu-
cation OF coored girls, the gift to be a me-
mortal OF his wife, recently deceased. A
similar sum, it is understood, has been
pledged by other parties, making the total
amount $4,000. Mr. Hartshorn stated yes
terday that it was not absolutely decided
that the proposed school would be situated
in Richmond, but probably that the city
would be the site. Mr.. Hartshorn left this
city yesterday afternoon for Richmond to
consider the question of site and other mat
tiers connected with the benevolent enter
prise.
