A False diagnosis.

La Grippe is confounded by many persons
with severe attack of catarrh, which in some
respects resembles the former. These indi
viduals suffer severely with pain about the
forehead, eyes and ears, with soreness in
throat and stoppage of the nasal passages, and
in fact, are incapacitated for work OF any
kind for DAYS at time. These are catarrhal
sufferers. Ely's Cream Balm has been used
with the best results in such cases. The
remedy will give instant relief.

SUING A VANDERBILT.-Mrs. Alva
Vanderbilt, formerly wife of w. K.
Vanderbilt, and mother of the Duchess
of Marlborough, has been made defen-
dant in suit brought against her in
the New York city court by the Baron
ess Blanche de Berzsenyi, of Hungary,
to recover $500, the value of q Tantalus
cup.
The plaintiff alleges that on and
prior to October 1, 1895, she was the
owner of Chinese and japanese and
oriental curios and articles of bric-s-
brac. Among these articles, she says,
was Tantalus cup valued at $500. The
Baroness says that shortly before the
marriage of Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt
to the Duke of Marlborough, Mrs. Van
derbilt requested that the cup and other
articles be sent to her for inspection,
under an agreement to buy them or to
return them. The plaintiff says that
Mrs. Vanderbilt has failed to return the
cup or to pay for it. The Summons in
the action was served on Saturday.

TWO ELEPHANTS FIGHT.

Two elephants of consignment of
seven, which arrived here Saturday
on the Hamburg-American liner Per-
sia, fought at sea on the night of No
vember 81, and but for their keepers
might have killed each other. The
elephants left Hamburg on November
IS, in charge of William Newman,
known in 9he show business as "Ele-
phant Bill" and another keeper.
Pilot, who has tusks, and Albert,
who has no tusks, were the only males
of the lot. They are nearly twelve
years old and about FIVE feet and half
high. They were placed in opposite
corners of box stall. On the fourth
night, during the rolling of the ship,
Pilot and Albert succeeded in breaking
their chains and they went at each 9th
er savagely. Their heads cracked to-
gether with such force that Newman
thought their skulls would surely be
fractured.
The brutes attempted to rise on their
hind legs and paw each other. Then
they lashed each other ferociously with
their trunks. They would back off
and butt each other with such force
that the shock stunned them for
moment. Pilot made several ef-
forts to puncture Albert with his tusks,
but was not successful Meanwhile
the other five elephants were grunting
and trumpeting, so that the noise
could be heard all over the ship.
Newman and his assistant beiabored
the brutes with clubs, but the clubs
didn't seem to have the slightest eff
feet upon the craniums of the ele-
plants; two pitchforks were procured.
About half adozen good "digs" with
the forks took all the fight out of the
two animals, and they allowed them.
selves to be chained in their corners
again.
TIE elephants are all young and
"greep," the show term for unframed.
Their ages range from year and o
half to twelve years. "Baby Ruth"
is the name of q year and half old
elephant. She is less than four feet
high, and was bought in Rangoon,
India. She will he trained for clown.
They were all shipped yesterday by
rail to the winter headquarters of the
Barnum & Bailey show, in Bridgeport,
Conn.
On the same deck as the elephants
on the Persia were twenty-one stall
lions and one mare, imported from
Oldenburg, Germany, and consigned to
J. G. Crouch & Sons Lafayette Stock
Farm, Lafayette, Ind. They are high
stepping coach horses.-N. Y. Herald.
