NEW YORK, April 24.-There was some
thing of panic at Barnum's circus tonight
when a drove OF young elephants stam-
peded. The leading elephant caught the
the arena and the big elephants joined in
rush, breaking down the barricade. A
moment after they disappeared the terrible
roar Of tiger was heard. The cry went
up that the animals were loose and the
people rose in a body but the prompt
action of the circus people prevented a
panic. The animals were brought back
and the performance proceeded.

AMERICAS HORSES WANTED

An English army officer is now in Ore
gon on a tour of inspection, with view to
seeing if arrangements can be made to pur-
chase in that state large number of horses
for the English army. The officer stated
that his governmt Mt was ready to take
about four thousand horses annually, and
was willing to pay $3.50 per head for them.
He added, however, that he had thus far
seen very few animals which came up to
the requirements mentioned in his instruc-
tons. The reason for this is clear. North
western breeders. particularly in the terri
tories, do not give that attention to breed
ing good stock which they might easily do,
and which would give them a much wider
market for their horses. The result is that
while numerous horse ranches exist through
out the West, the stock is Of such an Inferior
quality that it sells with difficulty. There
is no reason why the stockmen of the
Northwest should not, with little care
aud attention. be quite able to meet the
English demand. and. in addition, better
supply the home market 1t Is as easy to
raise good as poor stock if the business is
only begun in the right way, While the
far Western ranchmen will have the ad-
vantage, either in cattle or horse raising. of
free grazing lands there is no reason why
the breeders of Minnesota should not enter

WILL THEY HANG3

The nearer the day of execution ap-
proaches, the greater the pressure brought to
bear upon the Illinois state authorities in
favor of extending elemency toward the con-
demned Chicago anarchists. The argu-
ments urged in behalf Of the plea for
mercy are that it was not definitely proven
who threw the bomb. and that under all
ordinary state of public sentiment these
men would not have been found guilty OF
murder. The main argument in behalf of
committing the death sentence to imprisOn-
ment for life is that if these men are
hung their execution will furnish
an anniversary that will long be an occasion
for agitators to celebrate. There is good
deal of force in this argument. Their exc
cution will be held up by their followers as
a species of of martyrdoIn to enlist SYM
pathy for the cause. There will be- an at
tempt to make their blood the seed of the
socialistic church. With what effect this
ear De done may be best judged from the
amount of sympathy that has already been
bestowed upon The condemned anarchists.
The general assembly of the Knights of
Labor, recently In session at Richmond.
passed a resolution appealing for mercy for
them. The American Dairyman and Stock
breeder, one of the leading agricultural
Journals in the country. advocates the same
nolicy. These facts are referred to as in
stances of how far the sympathetic move
ment extends. But on the other hand,
there stands the majesty Of the law asking
for yindication. The blood OF the murdered
policemen cries from the ground asking the
execution Of these murderers. Society
