RIDING AN ELEPHANT,

At word from his "mahout"-a wild
elephants ears and pricks him with an
iron staff-he goes down on his knees,
and one climbs on to his back as best as
one can, holding on by his tail with both
hands and trying to get footing on his
slippery quarters. AT last one manages
to scramble up, and finds ones self on Il
elephants back. The first time, when
the great beast rises on his fore legs, then
on his hind ones, it is all one can do to
bold on by the ropes which are fastened
to the sides of the pad; but practice
makes perfect, and III short time one
learns to adapt ones self to the curious
motion.
A good small elephant will shuttle a,
long easily at the rate of five miles an
hour, climbing steep ravines and other
distractions. so that the rider often finds
himself hanging on in an almost perpen
dicular position. No animal is SO sure
footed as an elephant. He will climb
steep banks and slide down into river
beds with as much ease as an Irish pony, ,
but he particularly objects to bog, and
let no one attempt to ride him over one,
for if he finds himself sinking in, his first
impulse is to drag the rider off and put
him under his feet, by way of having
something to stand on, proceeding one
would hardly approve of.

STYLES IN Boards.

Fashion Changes Even IN This Respect.
81 learned my trade forty years ago in
Boston," said "a leading barber to me yes

is surprising how long a fashion IN hair
or whiskers will last. Now Il fashion III
clothes doesn't generally last longer than
ten years, but Il fashion in the cutting
md dressing of the hair and whiskers
will last twenty or thirty years. Take
'uoustaches, for instance. They came in
about twenty five years ago. | can re-
member very we'll when a moustache
vas regarded as the badge of IA top, All
idiot or a gambler. 1t was as much as a
mans reputation was worth to let his
nair grow on his upper lip. But how
ministers and everybody else wear them,
and | am afraid | will not live long
enough to see them go out OF fashion.
Anything to beat the BARRIERS, you see.
Then, there is no fashion of wearing
the hair short. About the time that
moustaches came in long hair went ont.
Before that, everybody wore long hair,
and had it curled, too. Yes, sir; | used
to keep my curling iron around all tt
time; for ii was just as common with m, L
then as it is with women now to have
their hair curled. The fashion of having
the hair clipped very short, except on tor
where it is left quite long, is called the
Pompadour, and is only ten or twelve
years old, though the clippers with which
the work is done were invented three
years earlier. The practice of brushing
the hair by machinery run by steam
started about twenty-five years ago, and
was given up about ten years ago on &C
count of the accidents that occurred in
tiictIng injury on the customers.

Nerve at Poker,

A number of gentlemen were gathered
at Chamberlain telling poker stories the
other day, when one of them said: Zone
of the nerviest games of poker ever saw
in this city was played not long ago in a
room at the Arlington Hotel, where sew
eral gentlemen we'll known in national
politics were IN the party. All the hands
had been dealt and about $500 were in
the pot before the draw. Only two stay
ed in. They were General Malone and
Colonel Henry Watterson General Ma
hone held two pair aud drew one card.
Watterson stood pat. Malone bet an
even 500. Watterson saw the 500 and
raised him $500. Malone saw that a
mount and raised it another S100 Wat
terson saw that and raised it $1,000
Malone laid down and asked Waiter
son to let him see the cards, but Henry
said, mo, if you want to see what have
you must pay for it" and he raked in the
pot. Afterward he told his friends Just
what he had. 1t was a cool bluff, and he
hadn't card in his hand higher than
the queen, but it took several thousand
dollars of the Virginia gentleman S money

time''
