These elephants gather up all the scraps of
lumber and lay them in apile, so that the work
men can tie ropes around them, which they in
turn seize and carry off to the other end of
the yard. They do wonders in the way of
lifting logs, and l saw one Of the biggest of
these beasts put his trunk over log two feet
square, run his tusk under it, and with festive
kick of his hind leg send it flying to the top
of the pile as though it had been feather
They are as intelligent about their play as they
are about their work, and when the bell rings
out the hour of noon they will drop whatever
they have and bolt for the feeding shed. They

They have TO be carefully fed and treated and
each must have his bath twice a day. They
become restless If anything creeps under the
blanket on their backs, and they will tremble
like woman at the sight Of a mouse. Their
fear is that the mouse will run up their trunks,
and sight of one frightens them almost to
death. As | left l threw piece of silver to
the man on the top of the biggest elephant.
He rubbed his bare heel on the elephants
head, and this Jumbo of Rangoon threw his
great trunk high up in the air and gave me q
royal salute.
Formerly all the elephants of the country
belonged to the King. The Government still
prohibits the hunting of elephants, and in Siam
the King owns the elephants of the country.
Upper Bnrnah has many of these beasts, and
they are there used largely for travelling. 1t

when he approaches manhood. and the Bur-
mese man would feel as uncomfortable without
his skin tattooed as without clothes The tat
tooing is not so fine as some of the work Of
Japan. The patterns run together, and the
variety of colors is not so great. 1t is usually
a dull. navy blue, and it shines as though it
was creased. I have as yet seen no tattooed
babies but some of the brave boys of Burmah
are tattooed before they begin to wear clothes.
The work once done it is for lifetime,
and the operation is so painful that it some
times results in the death of the patient; some
times opium is given to the boys while these
figures are being pricked into their flesh, and
there is as much art in tattooing as in painting.

Touched or.
Mr.. James Ii. Kennedy, who has the con-
tract for building the canal for Mr.. Post,
did fine piece of work yesterday in the
shape of blasting. The canal is being
built to supply the many mills that will be
erected along its banks with power, and 1t
was at the end of this canal, leading into
the river that the blast was placed. At
this point the rock towers up above the
waters edge some forty feet. and the
blast was placed near the base of the ledge
in such manner that it would throw the
debris into the river, which at this place
is very deep. When everything was in
readiness the word was given. the match
applied, and in less time than 1t takes to
tell it, tons upon tons of rock and dirt
were deposited in the bed OF the river.
This terrible agent of destruction had done

That the good people of Helena, were
highly pleased with the entertainments
given in that city by the Goodyear, Cooke
Dillon's MINISTRIES is evidenced by the fol.
lowing taken from q notice given in the
Helena Herald: "Standing room was in
deed at a premium. And welldid they de.
serve the ovation rendered them, for it
must be admitted by all who witnessed the
performance that it was one par-excellence.
Every feature presented was new, the clog
dancers superb, while the instrumentalists
and vocalists al once stamped themselves
masters of the lyric art. The entertainment
was in every particular as represented
chaste and reined--devoid of the low and
vulgar subterfuges SO often resorted to by
companies OF this character. Special men,
ton could be made OF the performers, each
and all Of whom rank as stars of the PROBES
sion, but lack oil space in the present issue
forbids. In short, it is an A 1 show, E.ghly
pleasing and entertaining, and should be
witnessed by all. ut ia simply immense
was the verdict OF all last night, and doubt
less tonight will witness another packed
house"

D THE

Her hands are cold; her face is white;
No more her pulses come and 60;
Her eyes are shut to life and light;
Fold the light vesture, snow on snow,
And lay her where the violets blow.
But not beneath a craven stone,
To plead for tears with alien eyes;
A slender cross Of wood alone
Shall say that here a maiden lies
In peace beneath the peaceful skies.
And gray old trees OF hugest limb
Shall wheel their circling shadows round
| To make the scorching sunlight dim
That drinks the greenness from the
ground
And drop their dead leaves on the
mound.
| When DER their boughs the squirrels
run,
And through their leaves the robins
call,
| And, ripening in the autumn sun,
The acorns and the chestnut fall,
Doubt not that she will heed them all.
| For her the morning choir shall sing
It's mathis from the branches high,
And every minstrel voice Of spring
That trills beneath the April sky,
Shall greet her with it's earliest cry.
| When, turning round their dial track,
Eastward the lengthening shadows pass,
| Her little mourners, clad in black,
The crickets, sliding through the grass,
Shall pipe for her an evening mass.
| At last the rootlets OF the trees
Shall find the prison where she lies.
And bear the buried dust they seize
In leaves and blossoms to the skies
So may the soul that warm'd it rise!
If any, born OF kindlier blood,
Should ask, What maiden lies be-
low?"
| Say only this: "a ten.ter bud,
That tried to blossom in the SNOW
Lies withered where the violets blow"
-GBy d.. Oliver Wendell Holmes.
