PRAISE FOR AMERICANS
An English journal Sums Up
Their characteristics.

Their characteristics.
Take them as whole, the Americans
are the kindliest race on the face of the
earth. In spite of their eagerness,
their push, their desire to be jim the
front rank at all times and at all sea-
sons, the true American seldom fails
in kindness. He wants badly to pre-
vent any one getting ahead of him mer-
tally, physically and morally, but if
his competitor fails in the struggle he
will make untold sacrifices to help
him, says the London Spectator.
The rule in American business is
pure cut-throat competition carried to
it's logical conclusion. You are eX-
pected to push and press every point as
far as it can possibly be pushed and
pressed, and no one is expected to con-
slider whether, in making commercial
coup, you will ruin Brown, Jones or
Robinson.
The moment, however, that Brown,
Jones or Robinson actually goes under
he is treated with the utmost generos-
ity and consideration. The hand which
struck him down is instantly stretched
forth to help him, and as much care
and trouble are used to put him on
his feet once again as we're originally
employed to knock him off them In
social intercourse this kindliness and
sunniness is specially attractive.
The American will take infinite pains
to make the merest stranger happy
He is courteous and pleasant-spoken
not like the Frenchman from conven-
ton, but from the sense of pleasure
which his instructive optimism teaches
him to diffuse. His optimism has even
proved strong enough to break down
the shyness which naturally belongs
to the English race.
One sees, no doubt, survivals of it in
the American, but in most cases the
sense that all is for the best in the best
possible of worlds has mastered it
altogether. Even the fundamental
melancholy OF the Teuton has given
way, or, rather, has been transmitted,
and appears not as a diluted melan-
choly, but in the form of dry humor-
all alPsfor-the-best sort of melan-
choly. That is the genesis of Ameri-
can hun7or.

PERILS
When Rogue Elephants Get I'm
der the Strange Spell.


st. Nicholas.
The complete history of rogue eIe-
phants would make al interesting
chapter. They seem to have decided
to aVenge mans wrongs against their
KIND. Some years ago one rogue act
ually took possession of a stretch of
country i'll India 40. miles wide by 100
long, and in a busfness-Iike way pro
ceeded to demolisi everything in or
about it. The animal rushed into the
village, took huts upon his tusks and
tore them apart, or tossed them until
!. they fell in splintars. 1t chased the
people away, or killed them whenever
1t could, or; standing by the wrecked
houses, 1t ate the grains and stores.
IhiS elephant seemed remarkably in
telligent. 1t entertained, in particular,
grudge against the watchtoWers O.
scaffolds. Whenever the rogue saw,
one he would creep slyly, spring at
1t, push it to the ground and Kill it's
occupants.
A famous rogue elephant named
Mandla was owned by a rich man near
Jubbulpore, in Central India Sudden
ly 1t began to develop the characters
tics OF rogue, and attacked human
beings wherever seen. It killed them
so cruelty that it became widely known
as the man-eater." He was finally de-
stroyed by an organized effort of En-
gliSh army officers.
Another famous rogue took possess
sion of a public road and attacked ev.
cry passer-by. Suddenly darting from
jungle, it would rush up To an OK
cart, seize the driver with it's trunk and
disappear. Repeated raids of this kind
SO terrified the people that a large
tract of land was to ell intents and
purposes deserted; but finally an En-
Slish hunter determined to rid the
country of the rogue. By careful in
quiry he found that the elephant al
ways seized the driver, and if there
were two carts in company, it chose the
driver of the last. So he arranged two
oX-carts, putting a dummy driver upon
the second, while upon the first was a
stout bamboo. cage, in which the hunt
er was to sit, rifle in hand. When ali
was ready the two ox-carts started,
one day, followed by the hopes and
best wishes of the community The
fatal district was soon reached, and
about halfway down the road there
came a Grassland the monstrous ele-
plant, dark and ugly, dashed upon the
party. Making directly for the last
cart, with a vicious swing OF it's trunk
it seized on the dummy man and made
off, receiving as it went a shot from
the cage. But the oxen, alarmed by
the uproar, ran away, leaving the road
and taking to the upper country. They
tipped the cart over, nearly killing the
Gagged driver and the English sports
man. What the elephant thought
when it tore the dummy into shreds
must be imagined. Some months later,
however, this rogue was driven away
and caught.
