Saved by the Pony,

Elephants are extremely afraid of
borses, writes Maj. John Butler in
"Travels in Assam" To that fact he
owed the deliverance Of his wife and
child from terrible death. With
them he was traversing the jungle al.
ternately. The way had to be cut as
they advanced.
I was in the lead on a large elephant
in my howdah, with good battery Of
guns, when about midday heard be.
hind me general cry of alarm, and
hastily rode to the scene Of danger.
1t seemed that just after had passed
with the coolies who cut down the
jungle, huge Mukna elephant rushed
from the jungle in terrible rage,
and pursued the little baggage elephant.
which was just behind my wife and
child! The little elephant screeched,
and fled for it's life, straight ahead.
Fortunately a pony was led beside
the palkee which contained my wife
and child. The wild elephant was close
upon them, and they closed their eyes
IN horror, expecting to be dragged from
their places and trampled to death.
At that moment the great beast caught
sight of the pony. 1t stopped short,
turned aside. and aed back to the
jungle as if pursued by an evil spirit.
The men were filled with astonisll-
nent. Most of them had fled to the
protection Of sheltering trees, leaving
my wife and child alone.

CHING Into the River.

St. Anne de la Parade, May 1O.-Two
other houses have fallen into the river
this morning. Two hundred men are
at work trying to save the big Canadian
Pacific railroad bridge which it is not
expected will be able to withstand the
water. To say that the inhabitants OF
this village are in great state of ex-
citement is putting it mildly. About 10
o'clock Yesterday morning farmer
named Ullrich Boissevert, whose proper
ty is situated about fifteen acres above
the Canadian Pacific bridge, noticed
that his land was rapidly being carried
away, and, with the help of some Of
his neighbors, began to move his effects.
He just had time to do SO, as shortly af-
terward he saw his house carried away
by the river.
