managers from one end OF the country to the
other, and year of extremely low rates The
gross earnings for lsSS generally showed gains
upon the year 1857, and therefore the <ains

Of the latter part Of the year having assumed

A COMBAT OF A


An Elephants Mad Rush From the
Terrifying Elements.
Silent and almost m~otionless, quite
hidden in the darkness, stood the huge
form of an old bull elephant, one OF
whose tusks had been damaged in his
youth and had become totally decayed.
His head was bent forward in order to
rest his one monster tusk upon the
ground, his trunk, loosely coiled between
his fore-legs, was also restin e on the
ground. aud his great ragged ears tapped
spasmodically in vain ~endeavors to shake
of the myriads of mosquitoes that y err
sistently lowered around nis head. sud
denly the forest was lit up by a most
vivid flash of lightning. followed an in
slant afterward by a crashing peal of
thunder. The elephant raised his head
with a startled jerk, his huge limbs
shaking with fear.
Almost before tine rumbling echoes OF
the thunder had died away, the rain, that
ia been threatening for so many hours,
fell in torrents. Flashes of lightning
succeeded each other so rapidly hat the
attendant peals of thunder were con
verified into one continuous roar. and the
violence OF the wind soon Increased tbs
veritable tornado-a tropical hurricane.
Trees were blown down and uprooted
on all sides. The terrified elephant re-
NAMED for some time motionless with
fear, but as the tempest continued, the
monster suddenly became panic-stricken,
and charged madiy through the dense
forest, stumbling and falling over the
trunks of uprooted trees in his endeavors
to gain some open patch where there
would be no danger OF being crushed by
the falling timber.
Suddenly. in the midst Of a mad rush,
the elephant sank TO the ground with a
sharp squal of pain. Tue poor brute had
severed the vines that supported one OF
the traps that had been arranged the pre-
vious day, and a heavily weighted spear
was plunged between the shoulders. For
some moments he remained motionless.
then the great body rolled slowly from
side to side in vain endeavor to free him
self from the spear, but the weapon was
barbed and the points had penetrated too
deeply to be shaken of. Here he re-
manned exhausted until daybreak, his
hide covered with patches of mud and
deep red smears OF lood.-Herbert Ward

Literary Men and Women In ond
There is, in truth, a sad want Of or
ganized literary entertainment in Lon
don society. The few efforts that
have been made in that direction have
not been successful, and have ended
in mere evening parties, where there
is much music, and at which half the
guests have no claim to be considered
literary. We have no Nineteenth
Century Club, no Sorosis. The start
ing of an Authors Club strictly con-
fined to literary men and women has
been talked of. but has never been
carried cut. At the annual banquets
of the Royal Literary Fund, or Press
Fund, literary women are not allowed
to dine, but are brought in when the
actual feeding is over, as children
are brought in at dessert. and are then
graciously permitted to hear the
speeches. One of the dramatic socie-
ties was the first, | believe, to ven
ture on the bold innovation Of allow
ing women to dine OF the table. The
Gooiatv of Antitors a re-
cent and important organization,
solicits the membership of women and
admits them to an equality with men
at the annual dinner which of late it
has offered to the representatives OF
foreign literature. But the time
seems yet far off when the literary
woman will sit down with the literary
man side by side at every board in
public, just as she does in private

be particularly offensive to the Press.
