Elephant Catching.

The secret of catching the elephant is
very much like that which lures many a
man to his fate. 1t is the female elephant
who is the chief factor When herd of
wild elephants is discovered a tame female
is sent out to put in an appearance in its
neighborhood. 1t seems to make no diff
ference that man is mounted on the
females back. The male elephant, once
he gets sight of this strange female OF his
own kind. will leave the other females of
the herd and follow the stranger wherever
she may lead.
Sometimes she leads him where men
lie in wait to slip moose over his hind
leg as he lifts it from the ground, and
sometimes she leads him into corral. |

The words OF the cipher are, of course,
selected without reference to their mean

times occur. For instance, HObserver

dictate anything in the conduct Of the OBJ
server at Detroit; it only directs him to
hoist certain cautionary signals in his
district.
The words, ssPaul baby nervous doctor
calling fussy mama naggy nurse anar-

S:45 AM. AT THE BUREAU.
at about S:45, morning and evening
the telegraph room in the weather bureau
at Washington becomes more vocal than
at other times with the rattle OF its in
struments.
| Operators take off the startling combi-
nations of words which come pouring in :,
and transfer them directly to typewriter
copies, and a messenger hastens to and
fro between this room and the forecast
room.
In the forecast room are ten men whose
duties are unique.
| There is first the translator, whose du-
ties consist in taking the kilograms in
cipher from the hands Of the messenger
and translating them, on sight and orally,
for the benefit OF the rest. The curious
tumble of words which come into his
hands never put him at fault.
Then there are four map makers who
make each g. separate map from the die
tation of the translator. One map shows
those of temperature, and another the
clouds and winds. The fourth map
which is technically map No. lis the fu-
ture weather map which will be printed ::
the others are simply for the use of the
forecast official.
This accounts for half the men in the
room. The others are two compositors,
one symbol one clerk for special
messages, and the forecast official him
self.
| The two compositors set up (from the
dictatiol of the translator, and the calls
of changes of pressure and temperature
from the clerks in charge of the CORE
spending naps) the table which appears
on the right side of the Washington

| Their work is made easier by what are
called ''logotypes, that is, types with
several letters or figures on each piece.
For instance, the letters 1t, which appear
in next to the last column mean Light

The same is true for the "29'' and ss36 -
which occur SO often in the first column
of figures.

especial kind. He sets in their proper

There remain a few words to be said
about the maps themselves. They show
the ''isobars'' and s'isotherms' as al
ready defined. They also show the areas
of rain in the preceding twelve hours;
these are shown by shading on the Wash
ington maps and generally by colors on
the others. Areas are also Indicated over
which there has been decided rise or
fall of temperature usually twenty de-
grees or more) in the preceding twenty

Such is the making of the map at the
main Office at Washington
With changes in details, much the
same process is gone through at seventy
three other stations in the United States
generally in the great cities. The maps
at these stations are smaller and less COM
plete, but they are often beautiful speci-
mems of workmanship.

Still smaller maps are now printed in

metallic plate coated with chalk is used.

TRAINED FISH.
ScaIy Pets Which 1t Is Not Hard to
Educate.
New York Herald.


Fish have many times been taught to per-
form tricks, and 1t would appear as if they
had much mole intelligence than is aitri-
buted to them. Mr.. j. A. Bailey, of circus
fame, once had two brock trout in a small
aquarium in his private residence that
would jump out Ct the water and take flies
held between the fOretnger and thumb, and
would also ring little bell when they re-
CURED food. They would also leap over
little bars Of wood placed about two inches
above The surface of the water
Il was very simple matter to teach the
fish these tricks. AT first little tower con-
tanning tiny, sweet silver bill was
fastened to the iron work of the aquarium,
with piece of string attached 10 the tongue
Of the bell extending into the water where
the trout were. ON the loose end of the
string an insect or other tempting mOrsel
was placed, which the fish would at once
seize, and pulling the cord the bell in the
tower would naturally tnkle. After this
had been repeated several times, the fish
were left withnut food for some little time
until they made the discovery that they
could obtain it by pulling at the string to
which the delicacies had been attached,
This they never failed TO do ever aFterward
when they were hungry, and as that was
nearly all the time the little bell was con-
stanuy tinkling as the fish were continually
pulling the cord, and it was quite pretty
and novel sight,

them will be sent from here to the Worlds
