ELEPHANTS AT WORK.
How tho Owner of t Lumber-Yard Util-
 izeS the Huge Animals.


 izes the Huge Animals.
 A Philadclphian, travelling around the world, found nothing to interest him more than the celebrated trained ele- plants of India, which he saw at Moul- mein, seaport town cn the Bay of Bengal. In writing to friend he thus describes their wonderful intelligence:
 ''Here you see the trained elephants at work, piling up teak timber in the numerous timber-yards that line the river. Their knowledge and intelli- gence are simply wonderful. They are guided by native called a mahout, who is perched on the neck, and who gives all the necessary orders, assisted by his heel and an iron sharp-pointed goad very much like a small pick-axe.
 1.-The elephants thoroughly under stand what is required of them. Think of their piling up square timber to the height of forty feet, every stick of which is in line and ill it's proper place, each piece weighing from two to three tons.
 "They carry the timber on their tusks, holding it in place by their trunk, to tho place of piling. When the pile is too high for them to build upon com fortably, they build a staging for them selves out of the same material, and do not hesitate to mount it with their load
 "Mr. Findlay, owner of one of the largest yards, had his force of elephants put through their various forms of work for our benefit, such as piling up the logs and tumbling them down, as we'll as drawing by chain harness and pushing with their trunks and tusks from three to five of these logs end to end, tandem fashion. When drawing the logs the elephants, at the word of command, un- hitch the chain or hook, but can not be made to couple it.
 "When pulling down the timber he had just put in place thought one of them I9st suspicious eye in our direc- tion, as much as to say: You people are at the bottom of this.'
 "They are at times very troublesome and dangerous, and great care is taken to keep strangers at respectful dis tance. They are immense in size, and cost from 1,s0O to $500 silver rupees each; that is to say, from S9oO to 1,25o each.
 ''When the bell rings for dinner or quitting time they quit at once what they are at, and can not be induced to go on, but bolt immediately to their quarters for their meal,
 s'Woe to the feeder should any of them be cut short in their food. They never forget 1t, and revenge themselves at the first opportunity.
 "They bathe in the river every evening, and know as we'll as man when Sunday comes. On that day they make for the mud pits, and, like pigs, wallow here all day."-N. Y. Examiner.

The Forger and His Pen.

was talking with Treasury official on the subject of forgery. "Did it ever occur to you," said the official, ''that a forger has half his work done when he can get hold of the identical pen with which the owner of the signature habit ually writes? A great many men, bank presidents and the like, use the pen for their names only for year or two with out change. A pen that has been used by a man in writing his name hundreds of times, and never used for any thing else, will almost write the name itself. It gets imbued with the spirit of the sig nature. In the hands of fairly-good forger it will preserve the characteristics of the original. The reason for this is that the point of the pen has been ground down in a peculiar way, from being used always by the same hand and for the same combination of letters. It would splutter if held at a wrong angle or forced on lines against it's will. It almost guides the sensitive hand of the forger when he attempts to write the name. ."-Pall Mall Gazette.

The Grit of the Turtle.

A farmer, while COW hunting near Samson Lake, saw big flock of bug yards, among which, judging from the birds strange behavior, something of in- terest must be going on. The buzzards were gathered around large dead alli- gator, and one of them had got his foot fastened in tho carcass in some way and was unable to free himself. Finally his comrades bit the captive's foot off, which caused its owner to scream pit eously, but released him. Upon exami- nation tho farmer found that the stom- ach of the carcass contained a huge turtle, which had been swallowed wni1e the saurian was alive. A hole just big enough for the turtles head had been made in the gators hide by the birds, by which the turtle had been able to capture it's unsuspeoting victim. All though crushed out of all shape by the 'gator's teeth, the turtle had lost noth- ing of the pugnacity peculiar to its kind Stark (Fla.) Telegraph.

A
 The Heroism of Two Irishmen in tho Up-
 rising of '9S.
 The following is an incident that oc- cured in Burnamuck, in the glen of In- male, Ireland, in the memorable year of '9S. Captain Michael Dwyer and nine men, being fatigued and nearly ex- hausted with incessant watching and the extreme cold, stopped one night at the close of winter to take some rest. They were divided into two parties. six in one house and four in the other. They all retired to rest early in the night, and had not long done so when an informer hastened to Hacketstown and gave information about the party. large number of the Glengary Pencil bles. commanded by Colonel Macdonald, hastened to Burnamuck. They reached the place at.the dawn of day and pro- ceeded to the house of the six men, knocked at the door, and summoned the inmates to surrender, which they did.
 Captain Dwyer and his companions, who were in the other house, knew nothing of the presence of enemies all this time. They were shortly appraised of it by a very loud knocking at the door of their house. He and his men jumped up and found the house surrounded Corporal Dugal Cameron fired into the window and broke Samuel McAllister's arm, who was standing beside Dwyer. John Savage, one of the men in the now burning house, fired and shot Cameron through the heart. They continued to re- Sist until their ammunition was nearly expended and the fire had reached the roof of the room in which they were, and the heat was so excessive that some tu bs of butter melted and ran over the floor. At length McAlliSter, turning to Dwyer, said: Captain, dear, you sec that I am rendered useless and can fight no longer, as my arm is shattered, and 1 would wish to prove to you even in death my sincere affection for you. l think it best to open the door, and on the instant Savage and I will present ourselves at it, when we are sure to receive the volley of the Highlanders and fall, but you might perchance escape by rushing out through the midst of them, and being concealed by the smoke and falling snow, be able to gain the glen in safety"
 AS Dwyer saw no alternative but to be burnt alive or submit to the enemy he agreed to the proposal of McAllister, and having tenderly embraced each other, McAllister and Savage advanced to the door, dashed it open and ran out, and were instantly shot down. In the twinkling of an eye Dwyer bounded out through the midst of the soldiers, leaped small fence that surrounded the farm yard, and ran along by the door of the barn. In passing small frozen stream he slipped and fell on his face. As he did so volley of bullets passed over his head. He was soon up again and, rum | ming like a deer, made good his escape.- Freeman's Journal.

Why Old Daggs Allowed a Green Young
 Sheriff to Escape.

Why Old Daggs Allowed a Green Young
 Sheriff to Escape.
 A gaseous and callow young man from the East was lately elected sheriff of new county out in Montana, and the first warrant given him to serve was on a man named Hiram Daggs.
 Riding out to the neighborhood in which the said Daggs lived. the young neophyte came to slab shanty before the door of which white-haired, ven- erable old man was lying in the summer sunshine. his good old wife, a smile on her placid face, sitting in rocking chair knitting on the vine-clad porch.
 'Hello!' said the arm of the law, tip ping his hat politely, I'm looking for a man named Hiram Daggs, Gan you tell me where he lives?"
 ssWhat you want of old Daggs?" asked the old patriarch, slowly rising to his feet and yawning until his white-bearded jaws cracked.
 'l've got warrant for his arrest, and I tell you he's got to go, if l find him. He'll find I'm not to be trifled with; I'm going to take him back with me dead or alive"
 The saintly old man sauntered down to the gate, rested his arms on post, and smilingly said: ''Lookee here, bub, you ain't been long away from yer maw, hev ye? We'll, if ye ever want ter see her agin ye better light out in less two shakes of dead sheep's tail, an don't ye ever show up in these parts in while old Daggs is above ground. l know what I'm talkin' bout, sonny, fer I'm old Hi Daggs myself and I'd a dropped ye wheS you first rid up, but see ye was green un an I thought I'd give ye a chance to grow out O yer 1 swaddlin' duds; now you put" He had drawn revolver from each boot as he spoke, and the sheriff put with a yell that could have been heard mile, while the old lady of the serene face and snowy hair leaned forward and said, with merry twinkle in her still bright eyes; "Whyn't you pepper i'm, oneet, jist for the fun O the thing, dad? I'm derned if I wouldn't, if Tao been you!"-Drake's Magazine.

TWO BRAVE SAILORS,
Dashing Through Ring of Fire to Saw
 the Lives of Frenchmen.

Dashing Through Ring of Fire to Save
 the Lives of Frenchmen.
 In the year 1872 a French vessel, called Melamie, was lying at anchor at the mouth of the River Adour, waiting for fair weather to cross the bar which separates the Port of Bayonnc from the Bay of BiScay. She was loaded with five hundred barrels of petroleum, which, just as the crew were turning in for the night, suddenly exploded. The ship was soon surrounded by belt of floating fire. The nearest vessel at the time was a British brig, the Anna Belle Clark, from Ardrosson. Her master, Captain Sharpe, knowing there were some French sailors in the midst of the flames, shouted to one of his crew, John McIntosh:
 Come on, my lad! Let us go to their rescue"
 Without a moments hesitation these men launched the dingy, and in a few minutes were alongside the blazing yes sel. In this short interval what re- mained of the standing gear of the Melamie had become one blazing mass of flames. Nothing daunted, the Brit ish sailors, with the certainty of in- curing the greatest physical suffering, if not the loss of their lives, dashed through the floating circle of fire, and laid hold of the rigging of the burning ship. They succeeded in taking off two men in such helpless state from burns and bruises that they could not possibly have been saved had their rescue been delayed much longer. In the perform ance of this heroic act the Englishmen were more terribly burned than the men 1 they rescued. It was first feared that Captain Sharpe would lose the sight of | one eye, and his face was permanently | disf1gured. Mcintosh fared still worse; so severe were his injuries that his dis | charge from the ship was absolutely necessary. He was conveyed to the Bayonne hospital, where he lay for nearly month, at times in the greatest suffering. To show their appreciation of this act of heroism the British com munity raised a sum of 96o for the two heroes. Press.

inferior character, and it was the inten-

agricultural purposes, Notwithstanding
that it was within two and half miles
from the celebrated Beaver mine-the

otherwise. While sinking shaft for a
