NOVEL IDEA IN ARTILLERY.


The king Of Dahomey received some
Krupp cannon not long ago and conceived
the idea Of having them mounted on ele-
plants backs for use In the field.
With much difficulty this project was
carried out, and at the next military re-
view the king ordered that one of the guns
be fired Immediately In front of the royal
position, first taking tho precaution to
place a couple Of thousand prisoners whore
it was calculated the ball would strike, so
as to judge Of the effectiveness of the shot.
When all was ready, one Of the biggest
elephants was backed around and sighted.
just as the lanyard was jerked, however,
tho animal turned half round to reach for
peanut or something, and the she'll took
off the prime minister s head and knocked
a hole as big as sewer through the royal
palace
His majesty wouldn't have cared so
much IL the matter had ended there-as
the minister wasn't very prime, and the
palace needed ventilation-but it didn't
On the contrary, the elephant, which
had been stood on its head by the recoil
picked itself up in fury and started in
on the down grade ahead Of it's ticket.
1t upset the grand stand the very first
rush, slung the grand chamberlain and
the past grand carver of missionaries into
the next street. 1t then jumped into the
brass band with all four feet, and If 1t
hadn't got the big drum over its head
SO that it couldn't see it would probably
have cleaned out the entire congregation.
The king was not found until the next
morning, and then, as he slid down out OF
a banana tree, he was heard to remark that
there was only one thing needed to render
his new artillery system an entire success
that was to get the enemy to adopt it,

DEATH BY 6TARvATiON.
How IL Feeis tn 0o. Day After Day, with
out Anything % Eat.

For tho first two dnys through which q
strong and healthy man IL doomed To exist
upon nothing his sufforings arc perhaps
moro acute than In tho remaining stages.
Ho fools an inordinate, unspeakable crav-
Ing at tho stomach night and day. Tho
mind runs upon boef, bread and other
substances, but still, In great measure,
the body retains It's strength.
On tho third and fourth days, but cspe-
cially on tho fourth this incessant crav-
ing gives place to u sinking and weakness
OF tho stomach, accompanied by nausea.
The unfortunate sufferer still desires food,
but with loss OF strength no loses that
eager craving which IL felt In the earlier
stages.
Should he chance to obtain morsel or
two Of food he swallows 1t with a wolfish
avidity. But ilvo minutes afterward his
sufferings arc more Intense than ever He
feels as II he had swallowed living lob
ster, which Is clawing and feeding upon
tho very foundation OF his existence.
On the fifth day his cheeks suddenly ap-
pear hollow and sunken, his body attenu-
ated, his color is ashy pale and his eyes
wild, CLASSY and cannibalistic. The differ
ont parts OF the system now war with each
other The stomach calls upon tho legs to
go with 1t In quest OF food the legs, from
weakness, refuse.
Tho sixth day brings with 1t increased
suffering although the pangs Of hunger
arc lost In All overpowering langour and
sickness. Tho head becomes giddy; tho
ghosts Of well remembered dinners pass In
hideous professions through the mind.
The seventh day comes, bringing in
creased lassitude and further prostration
OF strength. The arms hang lstlessly; the
legs drag heavily. The desire for food Is
still left, to degree, but 1t must bo
brought, not sought. The miserable rem
nant OF life which hangs to tho sufferer Is
d burden almost too grievous to be borne.
Yet his Inherent existence induces desire
still to preserve 1t IL 1t can be saved with
out a tax on bodily exertion.
The mind wandors At ono moment he
thinks his weary limbs cannot sustain
him mile; the next ho Is endowed with
unnatural strength, and, IL there be GER
tainty Of relief before him, dashes bravely
and strongly forward, wondering whence
proceeds his new and sudden impulse

Paris Women Protest.

The managers Of the Theatre Francais
have become frightened at the dimen-
sions of the fashionable hat and have
posted a notice to the effect that no bon
nets Of any description, large OF small,
will be allowed in the stalls, either at
matinee or evening performances. This
has raised storm Of almost fearful pro-
test from Paris women. They are will
ing to leave the picture hat at home,
but they beg for the privilege Of wear
ing the tiny bonnet. Every woman
knows how demoralizing it is to the
coiffure to have to take off hat and veil,
and when this must be accomplished in

hurrying to join impatient escorts it
may be assumed that heads with cheve-
lures decidedly mussy must be the re-
suit. One woman seeks refuge in print,

her beloved bonnet, an objet dart as
she calls it, to the tender mercies of a
theater dressing room caretaker. Alto
gether it is pretty muddle, and one
from which the managers Of the Fran
cais must suffer if they persevere In
their stern dictuln.
