An Old Darky's Striking Argument in q
Question of Natural History.
Down in the woods of the Chicka-
manga battle fields rabbits skurry from
one brush-heap to another, and the
squirrels chatter as they look down from
their perches at men wandering from
point to point in the openings. We
were skirting Snodgrass Hill when we
heard a gun go off, followed by series
of yells and whoops. Pushing into the
woods few rods we came upon an ole
darky seated on log with one pant-lee
rolled up. There were four or five tiny
streams of blood running down, and ii
was plain enough that some scatterin Q
shot had struck him.
AS we reached him colored boy
about sixteen years old came out of the
brush with light shotgun in his hands,
and the old man looked up and said:
"Julius, look heah! You has dun

to show you de difference between q

He had been cutting a green limb as
he talked, and when he finished he took
the boy by the collar and played the
"bud" to him until the young man
jumped two feet high and sung out like
brass band. By and by we gently in
terfered to prevent further punishment

AN ENRAGED BEAST.
Seventeen Men Killed and Much Property
Destroyed by Mad Elephant.

Seventeen Men Killed and Much Property
Destroyed by Mad Elephant.
A terrible elephant story comes from
India. One morning, while an elephant
was being ridden by its keeper in the
district of Sultanpore, in Onde, the ami
NAL resented prodding with a spear by
pulling the man from his back and
throwing him some distance away. For
tunately the man fell in Il hollow. and
remained there undiscovered by the ele-
phant, which went to neighboring vii
lage.
There he chased an old man into the
house, then broke down the walls,
pulled the man out and dashed him to
pieces. The same night the elephant
knocked down several houses in quest of
human beings in the villages of Sadar-
pur, Bargaon and Jasingpur. He killed
six men in Bersoma, three in Sofa, four
in Gangeo, and four in Mardad. He
likewise killed bullock and a pony. and
also completely destroyed new car
riage. The animal used to stand at the
door of house, force his entrance by
demolishing the walls on either side,
and would then kill as many of the in
mates as he could, pursuing others who
tried to run away. He mangled the
corpses terribly.
After securing victim he sometimes
returned to the spot TO see if life was ex-
tinct, and would commence mutilating
the body afresh. He carried several
bodies long distances and threw them
into ravines, etc. The elephant found
his way to Dehra Rajah's place, where
he tried to enter the house of Il garden
er, but some men mounted on three
elephants, assisted by spearmen. drove
him off. He then returned to Bebipur,
in which several persons had taken re-
fuge. The police got into the house
from back window, and were obliged
to send for help to the Dehra Rajah,
who sent three elephants and some
spearmen. The animal received two
gunshots on the head at Bebipur which,
however, only temporarily drove him
off. He was ultimately captured at i'm
minent risk by the Rajah's three ele-
plants and men.-St James Gazette.

GOOD SHOOTING.

Some Remarkable Hunting Adventures
Related by an Old Toledo Settler.
"Game used to be thick near Toledo"

so'' Eyes; there were lots of deer
and ducks and squirrels. Why, Captain
HuntIey shot seventeen squirrels off one
tree on the east side of the river, not far
from where the brickyard now is. Old
hunters did not think it much of trick
to shoot three or four deer or one hum
dred wild ducks in a day. Right down
down there, where Point Place Club
House stands, shot two deer with
rifle at one shot. If fellow had no
meat in the house, all he had to do was
to pick up his rifle and 90 out for an
hour or two and shoot all he wanted
And fish! Why, have seen the spawn
of whitefish roll up along the shore of
the lake until it was at least two inches
deep. You don't see that now. White
fish have been pretty well cleaned out
of the lake.
"Out where Fitch lived I saw man
shoot four rabbits with rifle at one
shot, and down at Presque Isle a man
shot eleven wild ducks at one shot. You
see he got their heads in line and clipped
the whole eleven of them as easy as roll

"Well, he went out hunting near the
