IVORY IN AFRICA.
The Elephant Business Source of Great
Profit.

The Elephant Business Source of Great
Profit.
Among the wild animals indigenous
to Africa which are profitable to COM
mcrce may be cited the elephant first OF
all. From the African elephant, in
deed, the worlds supply of ivory is al
most exclusively drawn. The Ceylon
elephant has no tusks at all, and the
elephant of India and the Malay Archi-
pelago, for what reason can not say,
furnishes but little ivory to the market;
SO little in fact that the Chinese, Japa-
nese and Indians have to import ivory
from Africa for the hundred and one
graceful artistic objects which they
manufacture. Next perhaps to gold and
diamonds ivory is the most valuable
and profitable African product. AS
rule, people are given to talking of it in
disparaging way as vanishing guam
tity, and not source of wealth to be
permanently calculated on. If proper
steps were taken toward judicious
preservation OF the elephant-especially
the females-and it's slaughter were to
certain extent controlled and Or
ganized, there is no reason why this
magnificent beast should become
extinct any more than has the Indian
elephant. The Indian elephant does
not breed in captivity, or, at least, a
case only occurs once in fifty years.
Practically you may say that every ele-
plant you see in the East has been
caught in wild state when young. In
India the elephants are utilized as
beasts of burden. In Africa possibly
the same might be done, but in addition
a certain number of the males might be
killed annually for their ivory. Britain
has secured, fortunately, good share
of the finest elephant country in Africa.
In British South Central Africa, that is
to say, all Nyassaland and the country to
the north of the Upper Zambezi, the ele-
plant is at present extraordinarily
abundant. The same is the case, to
perhaps an even greater extent, in
British East NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
comes the best ivory in the world.
Then again we possess much of the
country south of the Benue and at the
back of the Oil Rivers, and before long
we shall have the Egyptian Soudan. In
all these countries elephants are still
found in vast herds in spite of the reck-
less war waged against them by the ma
tives. To have saved and domesticated
this magnificent beast would be one OF
the proudest glories that could be at
tached to England's name.-H. ii. John
son, in the Fortnightly Review.
-Fontenelle preferred his asparagus
dressed with oil; but his friend, the
Able Terrasson, liked it with butter.
The latter coming to dine with him one
day, Fontenelle unselfishly ordered that
half the asparagus should be dressed his
way and the other half Terrassons.
just before sitting down to table, the
able was struck down by apoplexy,
whereupon Fontenelle rushed out of the
room and shouted 20 his cook "All the

She rushed to a log cabin some twenty
yards away. Uncle Eden was inside; the
poor old fellow had sprained his wrist badly
some days ago, and no was sitting alone
over the smouldering fire with O corn-cob
pipe in his mouth.
A moment later he was following Judith
down to the copse.

The popping of the rifles went on for

house, trying her best to mako out how
things were going.
She was as white as the fold of the little

throat. She stood there for some moments,

A Kentucky paper called The Hustler
has earned its title to the name by a
most novel way of building up circula-
ton. 1t is much better than the ordinary
gift enterprise schemes, and besides does
not break the lottery law, although Civ
a gift to each subscriber. Here is The
Hustler's scheme in its own language:
Take The Hustler, pay for it, read it.,
and by that means you will be exempt
from jury service, especially If it be a
murder case. No man who reads his
county paper aid keeps posted Is ever
permitted to serve on cases Of this kind.
As a general thing the more ignorant a
man is the better juryman he makes in
criminal cases. This last statement is too
true to be funny, not only in Kentucky
but in most of the states, and it suggests
a sorely needed reform in the interest Of
even handed justice to both accused on
trial and to the community.
