village than thoughtlesy child does Of
putting its foot on tiny rut's nest. Sc
when the alarm was given this night,
every man and woman in the village
rushed out, shouting AID screaming,
some running this way and some that.
The men at once caught up blazing
torches from the fire to throw at the
elephants, because they knew that the
great creatures al, afraid of flames.
The women, at first, did not seem to
know what to do, but suddenly one OF
them cried out: 1.-The children! the
children!''
You might have thought, to sheal
them, that they were afraid some harm
might happen to the little onesi but it
was no such matter. There is & belief
in some parts of Africa that elephants
are afraid of the voices of children. So
it usually happens that when herd OF
elephants is known to be coming, the
women all rush to their huts and drag
out the children and whip them well to
make them scream. Itis not very nice
for the children, of course, but it Is
done, nevertheless, and consequently
on this night, at the cry of ''The chill
dren!n all the women rushed to their
huts.
Among others Bobolo's mother ran to
her hut. Not to get dear Bobolo, for
he must never be touched with the
whip. but to get Kami. She was in a
great hurry, and rushed to Kani' 5 bed,
and taking hold of the little sleeper
there. dragged him, half-awake only,
out into the street, and there laid on
the whip so soundly that the little fell
low was moved to do his full share TO-
ward soaring the elephants. How he
did well! .;fAnd the more he yelled and
struggled, the harder she whipped.
The elephants were frightened away
at last, and the children were led back
to the hut and put to bed again.
There probably was never more as.
tonished boy than Bobolo was that
night. He was so greatly overcome
that he could not say a, word, but lay
all the rest of the night sobbing with
pain and wondering what had happened.
The next morning there was an ex-
PLANTATION when his mother saw hel
darling boy all covered with stripes
where she had struck him. 1t seemed
even to that stupid little fellow that
there was something like retribution in
his punishment, for as it turned out he
had been fogged with his own cruel
whip, which his mother had picked up
by accident as she entered the hut.
However, the result happily was that
Bobolo learned two important things.
One was how TO scare an elephant, and
the other was that he would cry if he
was struck with whip. His poor
slaves benefited 9by the last piece OF
knowledge, for he did not use his whip
SO freely after that.-Ioutbs Conapan-

The Dangerous Toy Pistol.

The toy pistol is so safe, many ignor-
ant persons think, because it carries
neither shot nor bullet.
As tried it once, can tell you about
it. First, I twisted one OF the caps
around match, and set the match on
fire. When the flame reached the
paper cap there was a little explosion.
Suddenly felt a singing sensation in
my hand, and. on looking at it, / found
several tiny black splinters sticking in
the skin. [ pulled them out, but | felt
the pain for some. time afterWard. Then
I placed q cap on the hearth and struck
it with hammer This time / was
we'll scared, and kept my hands as far
away as could. When it went off l
felt the same singing sensation in my
left hand, which was more than two feet
away. / had been struck again by
flying splinter. This thing was getting
decidedly dangerous, and when | took
up the pistol to- try it, carefully
wrapped my right hand in my handker-
Chief It went of beautifully, but-ah!
There was the. mischief! The handker-
chief was dotted here and there with
the black splinters from the exploded
cap. 81
The insane desire of the small boy to
carry pistol is one of the wonders OF
the age;iand the worse than folly OF
those who allow him to do so is almost
Incredible OF what use is it, II the
pistol will: not go of, it is, as its owner
would scornfully express it, .'no good
If it does go off, it is a dangerous weapon
that has power to MAIN and kill.
Did you ever think what it means to
kill to take away life? Who shall do

Are you fitsto have q pistol? Are you
wise enough to carry a revolver? No,
sir. It is against the law in some States
to carry pistols. Why, then, should
you wish a. toy-pistol, that will shoot
nothing but the boy who holds it? Ii
you live in the backwoods, and have to
tight the terrible wild crow or the fero-
cious chipmunk, you may learn to use
a good rifle. In cities and towns, where
the most terrific wild beasts to be seen
are the eats, a boy who carries pistol
is q boy without sensea boy whom

Strange Adventures Of a ShipWrecked
Crew.

The London bark Silurian was instru-
mental on her recent passage to Valpa-
raise in rescuing nineteen of the crew
of the American ship Oracle, which
foundered at sea. The story Of the
wreck and the subsequent adventures
of the crew as related by the command
er Captain HI Morrison), is Of the most
interesting kind. From Captain Morri--.
sons statement itseems that the Oracle,
a ship of some 1900 tons, left San
Francisco with a cargoof grain for New
York in the early part of the present
year. On the 9th of March heavy
weather was encountered, and the tre-
mendous seas which came over the
vessel filed the decks, and portions Of
the bulwarks had to be cut away. One
wave demolished the Wheelhouse,
whilst another smashed the cabin sky
light, simultane ously flooding the cabin.
The crew had to cling to the rigging to
save their lives One poor fellow named
Richard Mason, who was unable to re-
tain his hold, was washed overheard.
A life-buoy was cast adrift, but nothing
further could be done for the man, who
persisted before the eyes OF his
helpless comrades. The vessel
herself was at this time in a
most critical condition. Land was
sighted on the following day. but no
soundings could be taken, and the YES

application was made to-dayto Vice
President Thomson, Of the Pennsylvania

for a curious purpose. 1tWas to carry
1000 or 5, 900 shares Of New Jersey Cen

books closed at three o'clock this after
noon, and the short interest there was
so large that stock loaned at : to TO.

three per cent, and is in good supply
When the brokers got word from theil
New York correspondents, Cassatt,
Townsend & Co. and w. 2. Smith, who
had 1900 or 1000 shares in their tin
boxes, rushed to Vice-P President
Thomson and asked the chance
of getting a special. It was then half
past eleven. To make deliveries the
stock would have to be in Wall street
and nthe hands of the persons to whom
it had to go by q .quarter-past two
O'Clock. There was only one hitch, il
one Of the big engines had her steam uI
there would be no trouble. The trip
could be made with q single car at the
rate of mile minute and a half-honl
allowed to get round on Wall street.
Telephones were brought into use after
the brokers had willingly agreed to pay
two hundred dollars for the train. All
was in vain, however. None of the
large engines were in readiness, and
the time necessary for the purpose
would cause delay, so the brokers
were -c'1.d out of neat little profit
