While Messrs. Sangers' men were pre-
pairing to leave Accrington one Monday
morning. one of the elephants got away
from the confines of the circus and burst
open the door of warehouse of a neigh
boring cooperative store, and when an
Accrington policeman entered he found
the truant indulging in biscuits and
jam. A basket of onions stood in the
elephants way, but as these were not to
his taste he hurled them in the road.
The officer did not attempt to seize the
animal, thinking it more prudent to OBJ
tain the assistance of its keeper. The
elephant was on Thursday morning dis
covered in another burglary at Chorley.
While the circus paraphernalia were be-
ing loaded up, he slipped away in the
darkness and forced open locked-up
gNcer's shop in the High street. Here
he demolished whole cheese, two
boxes OF biscuits and other groceries,
and altogether did $40 worth of damage.

SPEED VS.. QUALITY
Never Consider Fast-Doing of More I'm
portance Than WeIl-DoinS.

PoFtance Ihan Neu-DosnG-
Many persons seem to think that
speed in work is higher accomplish
ment than quality Of work. II speed is
Of the first Importance, then it may be
an apology for poor quality If quality
is of the first Importance. then ii may
be an apology for want Of speed. One
says: Il want to learn to write fast
Another says: Il write this very
hurriedly; please excuse erasures-~
Would such writers-or workers rather
be thought quick than accurate? Do
they place the writing above the writ
ten? Even a shorthand writer ough;
nor to write faster than he can write
well. Speed follows quality; quality
never follows speed. IT is u good thing
to do good work fast But it Is 4 bad
thing TO do fast work badly-and that is
the way it generally is done when the
fast-doing is held above the well-doing.
Bad work had better be done SO slowly
that it never gets done at all The only
way to attain to high speed IS to work for
something better than speeds, 5.

to a point somewhere north of Lado,
the Nile is known to the Arabs as the
Rahr-el-Gebel. the river of the noun
tains. This is the most beautiful part
of the river. The country is diversified
with mountains and forests: green hill

of many miles the river is broad and
slow. In other parts are wooded islands
and foaming rapids, About half way
between the Victoria Nyanza and Lado
the Nile flows through the northern end
of the Albert Nyanza. About twenty
five miles above the Albert Lake are
the Murchison Falls. Below the lake,

A REMARKABLE STORY.
To Obtain Money Dashing Woman Mar
ries Pretty Girl.

An extraordinary story. frs published
by Vienna newspaper and then gem

man. calling himself Count Sander Way.
who pretended TO have fallen out with
his family in Hungary. married last
August a teacher at klagenfurt, aged
twenty-seven. daughter OF an Inspector
of Woods and Forests there. The mar
riage took place on lonely farm in
Hungary, a certain Father Imre officia-
ting at the wedding ceremony
The newly-married couple lived to-
gether for some time. and afterward
visited the girls parents in klagenfurt,
where the father-in-law was const .ntly
feeced by the alleged Count. Quarrels
arose, and ultimately it turned out that
the young Counts tales of himself We're
all inventions. The persons he referred
to were imaginary. and the inspector
was convinced he was a swindler- Some
thing still stranger, and indeed unpar-
alleled. soon came to light. Ere long it
was found that the so-called Count was
in reality. a woman OF thirty-Six. the
Countess Sarolta Way, daughter of the
late Colonel of Honveds, Count Lads
laus Way, one of whose daughters, named
Sarolta. had been educated as boy.
"All her life she had worn male attire,
and recently had appeared in the uni
form of the Honveds. She published a
collection of poems under the name
Sander. and associated with young men,
who were not in the secret, in manly
amusemeuts. From Pesth, where eccen-
tricities of that sort are hardly rarity.
She disappeared about year age. after
which she was not again heard of till
her arrest, on the demand of her nom

probable that Father Imre was not q
priest. and that the girl, in going
through the form of marriage, only
executed another eccentricity in order
