HE WAS MISTAKEN.
J. c. Gleason Arrested and Lodged In Jsn
For Disturbing the Peace. Claimed
the Right to Make Noise.

j. G. Gleason, the auctioneer for
the Chicago House, on the south side
of Main street, was arrested last
night and lodged in jail by Deputy
McLamore on a charge of disturbing
the peace, his alleged offense consist
ing in an unusual and uncalled for
volume of noise both from n free use
of lung power and ringing of bells.
He was cautioned to desist under
penalty of arrest, but he defied the
officers, saying he had paid a permit
and was thereby entitled to do as he
pleased regardless of the rights Of
others. In this he reckoned without
a proper understanding of the situa-
tion as shown by the result. The
people of ArdmOre should rise up
and bless Mr.. McLamore for he done
just the right thing i'm arresting the
fellow, and there are others who un-
less they profit by the precedent set
for their guidance, should be
accorded a like treatment.
Gleason was given hearing today
before Commissioner Walcott with
the result that he plead guilty and
was fined SIS, which he paid and was
discharged.

hard to digest. If the fruit is found to

OILING AN ELEPHANT.

Billy Snyder. the elephant keeper at
Central park, New York city,, had a
strange duty to perform recently, viz:
oiling two elephants. Many of our young
readers cannot understand, perhaps, why
an elephant should be oiled, but when
they realize that the Gagged elephant can
not from day to day throw great sprays
of water over his thick hide and SO keep
it from cracking, as he would do if in his
native forest, they will readily compree-
bend the necessity of Keeper Snyder's
duty.
Small Tom was the first to be expert
mented on. and obeyed order to turn to
this side or the other more meekly than

were being attended to. A reporter WAS
in the pen, and helped to hold up the legs
of the animal while Billy" Snyder

The Western Union Telegraph company
is having, as an experiment, a special wire
stretched along its poles from New York
to Trenton This special wire is of much
lighter weight than the ordinary wire,
weighing about 10 pounds 20 the mile,
1t has a steel core and a copper covering,
and is being made by the Roebling COM
pany of Trenton. n. j., the firm made
famous through its connection with the
building of the Brooklyn bridge.
The weight of the average wire used by
the Western Union company is $50
pounds to the mile. The life of d wire.
barring cyclones or continuous inclement
weather, is placed by experts at about
twelve years, if running along turnpike;

monetary saving, but that more wires

road and forty wires also. These poles

SOWED BY THE WIND.

How Nature Has Provided for the Distri-
button of Some Seeds.
Prof. E. V. Coville of the agricultural
department lectured yesterday afternoon
before the National Science club on The
Natural Distribution of Seeds" He said
there is a distribution of seed caused by
the wind, and he cited the common silver
maple seed, which falls so thick in this
city late in the spring. The wings at
tached to this seed permit its wide dis
persion by the wind as it falls from the
tree. Another variety of natural distri-
button was shown in the Russian thistle,
which is light and takes the form of Il
tumble weed, passing sometimes at the
rate of q hundred miles a day over the
wind-swept plains, and planting itself
wherever it lodges. The milk weed was
displayed as fine specimen of the vari-
ETY. of seeds spread by the wind. This
seed is SO light the atmosphere will carry
it for many miles from its mother plant.
Water is an important factor in natures
distribution, and he exhibited seed which
are supported on the surface of the water
until they mature sufficiently, when they
are broken from a substance like cork,
which supports them and sink to plant
themselves in the bed of stream many
miles away from the plant which sheds
them.
Mistletoe, the speaker explained, is
spread by the seed sticking to the bill of
birds when they endeavor to eat it, and it
is subsequently deposited by them in their
efforts to free their bill on the limb of
tree, where it natures. One OF the most
remarkable provisions of nature was dis
played by the speaker in the common
witch hazel, which develops in a capsule
that opens as the weather grows warm
and the seed within it pops out, shooting
as far as fifty and seventy-fve feet away
from the parent tree, spreading the plant
in the most remarkable way.-Washing-
ton Post.

on, except for twinging the proboscis
round the nearest leg, in q sort OF CRATE
full kiss, these great beasts seemed thor
oughly to understand that man, who had
made him captive, was trying to do his
best to ameliorate his condition.
Modoc's skin was like a piece of blot
ting paper. AS fast as the Oil touched it
it was absorbed and more had to be al'-
piled until the hide was saturated. Sny-
der knelt down to his work. as if he were
scrubbing floor. Then it was discovered
that the oil was too light, and pound of
black was mixed with it. Mr.. Snyder eN-
planned that the lamp black was used to
make the elephants complexion more pre-
sentable.
1t took three hours to finish one side,
and then Modoc was asked to turn over.
Instead of getting up and lying down
again, she simply swung her legs in the
air and turned over on her back. The
straw was brushed off the upturned side
and Snyder set to work again.
When both sides were finished ten gal
Ions of oil had been used.
A thin strip down the center of the
back had yet to be treated. The keeper
couldn't get at it from either side.
Hey, hep! Come, sit up, old girl
The words were no sooner out of Sny-
der's mouth than Modoc arose and seated
herself on her launches like a dog. She
is the only elephant in the country that
performs this difficult feat.
AS Snyder oiled her back she waved
her trunk about and twisted it around her
legs with dainty grace.
1t was when her legs were touched
that Modoc felt uncomfortable. She
trumpeted her disapprOval in a bosterous
manner, but a word from her keeper sub
dued her.
She's very ticklish about her feet and
legs" said Mr.. Snyder.
Modoc laid down again TO have her feet
attended to.
Before they could be oiled it was found
necessary to manicure them.
A rasp, couple of knives with sharp
blades. some sandpaper and Il small file
completed the manicure set that was
used.
Each toe was taken in turn, and in
the course of an hour all the superfiuous
horn and hard. scaly skin had been re-
moved.
Then Modoc stood resplendent in her
glory. Her former light brown complex
ion had been changed to a lovely brunette
and her skin was as soft as a baby's
palm.
She was rubbed down, and when the
finishing touch had been given she looked
sleek and handsome.
She nibbled couple of hundred pounds
Of hay for lunch after it was over and
blinked her soft brown eyes at her keeper
as he wished her good afternoon.-NeW

The top it hummeth a sweet, sweet song
To my dear little boy at play
Merrily singeth all day long.
AS it spinneth and Spinneth away.
And my dear little boy
He laughed with joy
When he heard the monotone
of that busy thing
That loveth to sing
The song that is all it's own.
Hold fast the string and wind it tight,
That the song be loud and clear;
Now, hurl the top with all your might
Upon the banquette here;
And straight from the string
The joyous thing
Boundeth and spinneth along,
And it whirrS and it chirrS,
And it birrs and it purrs
Ever its pretty song.
Will ever my dear little boy grow old,
As some have grown before?
viii ever his heart feel faint and cold,
When he heareth the songs OF yOre?
Will ever this toy
Of my dear little boy,
When the years have worn away,
Sing sad and low,
Of the long ago,
AS it singeth to me today?
