A FIHE-BLooDfD s7Ear

There were horses from Arabia, from
Europe America and India, and the tying
of each was different from anything have
ever seen. There was strap from their
halters which was fastened TO rings Just
above their heads and each OF their four
feet had a separate rope which was
stretched out towards the four corners IN
front and behind them and tied at dis
lance of perhaps six feet away TO post.
The ropes were loose enough TO permit
them to move their legs up and down, but
they could not kick nor stand on their hind
legs.
next visited the elephant stables and
took a look at the twelve great elephants
which the rajah owns Some of them are
as big as was Jumbo They have great
brass chains about their necks. Their tusks
are cut off about half way up and they are
BOUND WITH HEAVY BRASS RINGS.
One of them has a sort of tattoo work ON
it's great ears and forehead made in the
patterns of cashmere shawl, and they are
altogether bigger than any elephants l saw
in Siam or Burmah. At the invitation of
the rajah's secretary took ride yesterday
afternoon upon one Of them. wanted To
visit the ruins of the old palace and city OF
Amber, which is located in the hills about
four miles from the city An elephant was
sent from the palace to the foot Of the hills
in the morning, and when arrived shortly
after noon l found it waiting for me.
1t was the biggest of the raiah's elephants,
the one which had brass bound tusks
and the cashmere shawl pattern ears and
forehead, and upon its head there sat
Hindoo elephant driver in bright turbsn
and gown. He held prod-lil1e steel hook
in his hand, and his bare, browns legs clasped
the elephants neck just back of the ears.
He made the elephant kneei as our carriage
drove up, and i second servant took step
ladder from its side and leaning this against
the beast,
WE MOUNTED UP THE wALL-LIBE SIDE
OF the kneeling elephant aud took our seats
on the cushioned saddle upon its top.

In the spring Of 1888 a pair of red |
'oxes took up their home on a Dakota
hrm. They dug several holes on
Snoll in wheat-iied. and soon after
lour "kits." or young foxes. arrived.
Every day. while narrowing and SOW
ing wheat in the field. says the farmer,
saw the two old foxes lying on the
little mound in front OF their home.
The kits rolled about In the sun, played
with the bushy tails Of their parents
and enjoyed themselves apparently as
much as a group OF kittens.
One morning u neighbor came to
work In a field adjoining. bringing
with him dog. and the dog. with all
the curiosity Of his kind. soon began
the investigation OF both farms.
lie was still long distance from
the fox-den when | heard u sharp.
warning bark and saw the kits disap-
pear A. looked. the mother fox
lay on the mound. her ears erect. her
nose on the ground. all attention. The
father Of the family. with his big tail
swinging in the wind. trotted toward
the dog.
Can he intend to attack him? won-
dered. ! had never heard OF such a
thing. and the dog. though not large
cne. was still larger than the fox. But
Reynard knew his business better than
/. lie approached the intruder until
the dog saw him. when both stopped
for an instant. and then the dog gave
chase. The fox. with bark OF de-
liance. turned and ran In direction
away from his home.
At first the dog seemed to gain rap
idly upon the fox. but | watched them
for nearly mile before they disap-
peared in the prairie grass aud con-
cluded that the fox was able TO keep
out OF the others way.
In about an hour the dog Fgsturnsd
from u fruitless chase. and for time
he contentedly followed his master.
Then he began proving around again.
All this time the mother fox had re.
mained on the mound. a picture oI
quiet vigilance, but now, as the dog
vep.ured near, she rose and trottcd
toward him, and the dog was soor
chasing her over the prairie Hardly
had they disappeared when the male
I trotted back from some hiding place
and took the position vacated by hi
mate The dog returned after 1
time, unsuccessful as before.
During the day he was again ant

male and then by the female. and
