A SENSIBLE ELrpAANr.
II soon Detected That tho Pump Trough
WINS Not LoNnl.

IL Soon Detected That the Pump Trough
Was Not Level.
In India domesticnted elephants nrs
usually given drink from large wooden
troughs filed with we'll water bv
means OF pump, and II Is commonly
nm elephant that oils this trough.
Every morning he goes regularly to
his task. While visiting friend at
his fine residence In India correspon-
dent of tho Manchester Examiner saw
a large elephant engaged in pumping
such trough full OF water He con-
tinues
I'm passing noticed that one OF the
two tree trunks which supported the
trough nt either end had rolled from
It's place, so the trough, still elevated
Mt one extremity, would begin TO emp
ty itself as soon as the water reached
the level OF the top AT the other end,
which lay on the ground stopped,
TO see II the elephant would discover
anything wrong Soon the water be-
gan to run of ut the cnd which had
lost its support, The animal showed
signs of perpleSity when he snw this,
but as the end nearest him lacked
much Of being full he continued to
pump. Finally, seeing that the water
continued 70 pass OF, he left the pump
handle and began 70 consider the phe.
nomcnon. He seemed TO find It diffi.
cult TO explain. Three times he re-
turned to his pumping and three
times he examined the trough.

The Rich Collection Of Gems Held BY =
Peddier IN Ccylon.
/ was sitting one afternoon ON the
beautiful wide vcTanda Of the Gale
Face hotel, Colombo, Ceylon, says n
writer In Donahue's Magazine. The
roar Of the breakers pounding upon tho
beach made pleasant music, and in
the translucent emerald brine some
laughing natives were splashing mer-
rily. A light hand touched my shonl-
der, and barefooted Cingalese stood
before me.
would you like TO buy some stones7"
he asked, IN his pleasant voice.
These pcddlers OF gclnB are very
numerous Ia Ceylon and threaten TO
become nuisance 10 the traveller.
They are not allowed 10 enter the ho.
tells, and I once saw one of them act
ually beaten out OF the Oriental, in
Colombo. Hence It was that before
addressing me my cingalese friend
glanced furtively up and down the
long yeranda 10 see that he was unob.
served by the minions Of the hotel.
He took from beneath his blouse a
bundle Of white cloth, which he
opened, displaying about a pint of
rubies, carbuncles, moonstones and
cats-eyes. AS | had nothing 10 do |
looked through them, after explaining
TO the sable merchant that ] had no
intention OF buying. The collection
must have been worth many thousand
dollars, Judging by individual speci-
mems, but apart from his merchandise
the barefooted vendor, costume and
all, might have been assessed at about
1--WE shillings.

Assal with the main ocean, may be
found one of the most wonderful rivers
In the world This natural curiosity

The surface OF Lake Assal is nearly
seven hundred feet below the sea level,
and II Is fed altogether by this para
doxical river, the latter being about
twenty-five miles In length u Is SAID

SENATOR sTANFoRp,s HORSES.

In employing men to work ut Palo
Alto tho late senator gave them tho
most strict orders They were told,
says the San Francisco Examiner,
never to strike, kick or whip horse,
and his instructions 20 his men were,
"Alwnys do thing little better than
anybody else and YOU will succeed.
When You handle horse trent him n
little better than anyone else. When
you breed horse breed him to little
better stool, each time
1t was IN this way that Stanford rev.
olutiopi2od the horse breeding of the
country. He never allowed ono OF his
men TO ill-use horse, and they knew
It. There are never noise or blows
around the Palo Alto stables and the
horses are never frightened TO show
his feelings towards HIS horses, the
late Henry Vrooman once told OF an
occurrence when he was dining with
Senator stanford just after the din.
Nor one Of the drivers insisted that he
must see the senator. He was ushored
in, with blood over his face, which was
badly cut. John knocked me down,
explained the man, referring to one Of
the trainers,
"whnt did you do2n asked the sena.

Nothing replied the man.
But you must have done something
