How m Elephant Fieht..

Tho elephant, although a very large
animal. is not q good fighter. A lion
can jump upon his back and tear of his
big. loose hide in q way which will
make the elephant roar with agony,
and the tiger and the panther can do
the same to him. Even the kangaroo,
whose front legs are mere paws. has the
advantage of the elephant, for it can
jump underneath him and scratch Wig
orously with its two powerful hind
legs. while its fcrcpaws dig deeply into
his sensitive trunk. So the elephant in
warfare has to resort to strategy. One
Of his tricks is to stand very still until
the lion or the tiger. as the case may
I've, has jumped upon his back. and then.
before there has been time to do much
damage, Mr.. Elephant lies down and
rolls over. crushing his enemy.
There is pretty story told by an AZ
rican explorer Of how an elephant kill
cd n whole family of lions by hacking
with them. one by one, into deep wa
ter. until they were so far in the stream
that they could not swim to the shore.
The elephant. who was cunning fell
low, would dip very low into the water,
and the lions would have to give up
their grip upon his back. Elephants
are very intelligent fellows, and good
hearted, too. il not proyokcd.-Ncw

To Light the Basporus.

A Greek engineer who pursued his
studies in this country has prepared a
plan for the electric lighting of the Bos-
porus from Kanak to San Stefano. on
the sea Of Marmorn. He proposes to
accomplish this by building three ma
chimes or engines at Armout Koei, Kan
dull and ai-Barum, where the cur
rent is unusually strong. The plan has
appeared SO simple and feasible that q
society of capitalists took it up and APP
piled to the Turkish government for per-
mission to carry it out. The ministry
now has the matter under consideration
and it is believed that it will he favora-
bly, answered.-Ncw York Tribune.

Can Animals Blush:

thickly with FUR or i,a;r or feathers

II is the case that the faces Of vul-
lures flush, and several of the monkeys
become purple with rage. which may
I've considered as kind of blushing.

FAMOUS SILVER spuasx



Gsst ~ - Express Csopa.y ssa vaaasa
By the Owness as olBy00o
Thomas J. Bradley and wife, Mary e.
Bradley, want $4,000 Of the American
Express company. Their petition, filed
in court recently, alleges that on Sept
IL they shipped lot Of silverware from
Memphis to st. Louis, but the goods
never came. The value Of these goods
was not less than 1900, but there are
reasons why the plaintiffs think they
ought to recover $4,000.
Nearly all Of the property was the &C
circulation of a lifetime by the plaintiff
grandfather, who was no less q person
age than the late Lieutenant General N.
q. Forrest Of the Confederate States Army
Of America, and the rest Of it was pres
ents from friends. In the list of articles
were four cups and Q pair Of silver spurs,
all Of which were manufactured during
the late civil war from the silver thim-
bles and silvcrware belonging to the la
dies Of the states of Tennessee, MISSISSIPPI
pi and Alabama.
These patriotic women presented the
articles to General Forrest as q token Of
their respect and high esteem, as well as
that in which he was held by the people
OF the south, for the distinguished serv-
ices he had rendered in many battles in
defense Of cause which he and they be-
lieved to be just.
The plaintiffs aver that by reason Of
this fact, in addition to the intrinsic
value OF the property, it had acquired
and had ut the time of delivery to the de-
PENDANT a value of at least &c., 900. The
plaintiffs sue for S15, 900 for the monde
livery Of the goods.-St. Louis Republic.

SUNDAY OBSERVANCE.
Ministers of Deer Lodge Protest Agains
the Dissertation of the Sabbath.

Ministers of Deer Lodge Protest Against
the Dissertation of the Sabbath.
We, the undersigned pastors OF the
churches of Deer Lodge, having observed
the dishonor shown tile Lords day in our
midst, by fishing, hunting and excursion
parties, by the open saloons and some
other places of business, and the frequent
presence of picnics from abroad: and
realizing perhaps more fully than others
the tlemoralizing effect of this unchrist-
ian proclamation OF the day Of the Lord,
desire respectfully and most earnestly to
protest against such dissertations:
lst. We would beg our officials who
have the Pavilion under their control to
no more allow it to be used on Sunday,
aud especially not to invite picnics from
abroad to use it Oh that day.
I'd. We entreat those who keep their
houses of business open on Sunday, to
remember that the moral and spiritual
wants Of man are above the temporal and
secular; and further to ask themselves il
the closing of their places of business
would not give opportunity for the i'm
provement OF their higher nature with
out Iessening in the least their monthly
income:
3d. We would especially urge the
members Of our churches who have
given occasion for reproach in this re-
spect, for the sake OF their influence,
the consistency Of their profession and
that they may avoid reproach against the
church of Christ, to remember the Sab
bath day TO keep it holy"
The proper observance of Sunday is
regarded by the leading christians of all
churches as promotive of prosperity and
q safeguard to our civil liberties, which it
is dangerous to break down.
We are glad to note aud commend tile
improvement that has been made in this
matter within the last few years; still,
for our credit and the welfare of our
community we are fully convinced that it
is time tile evils mentioned above were.
