who packed the elephant house the
other afternoon.
He was made to drink from bottle,
to answer questions with a decided nod
or shake of the head, to stand on his
hind legs, and do numerous others of
the tricks with which he has at otheS
times delighted visitors. And he was
made to play on the mouth organ, and
to perform the wonderful feat of creep
ing about the cage on all four knees.
The elephant is the only animal whose
four legs are so jointed as to render this
possible. The time and patience neces-
sary to teach him to get his huge body
down in that way and to move about al
the word of command have been very
great.
twas at the conclusion of all this that
his new accomplishment was shown.
Snyder produced tin fishhorn, and as
he advanced toward the huge beast, car
rying it in his hand, Toms little eyes
glistened with joy. The horn was in
serted in the trunk, and the big beasts
ears wiggled in an ecstasy of eXpecta-
ton. The horn was wrapped about
with cloth, so as to avoid the possibility
of cutting the trunk with the tin, and
also to fill up the space about the mouth
of the horn. Without this padding, or
packing, it would be impossible to con-
centrate the elephants breath in such
little thing as the end of the horn
for the greater part would escape
through the orifice of the trunk.
The horn properly adjusted, the keep
er gave the word of command: "Blow!"
And Tom blew. He has always been
proud of his trumpeting powers, but
the horn adds to them wonderfully.
The blast is such as surely no elephant
ever gave before, and Toms sister ele-
plants, in the other half of the house,
footed and trumpeted their amazerent.
And as Tom blew, and blew again, his
ears waggled happily and his funny lit
tie tail twitched with joy.
"Stop blowing" said Snyder, and the
elephant instantly obeyed. With a
gurgle of regret he handed the horn to
the keeper, and submitted quietly to
being led to his corner, and ignomin-
iously fastened by his leg chain.
And as the crowd dispersed and Others
came in to see what had caused the
noise, which was so unusual for 200,
there was but phlegmatic elephant
standing quietly in his corner. and
every now and then tossing trunldul
of hay over his broad back.

last the eminent commander arose, and
In the most approved style called "a
short talk from our newly-obligated
frater."
Zerubbabel arose very deliberately,
Strengthened himself, cast reproach-
full glance over the assemblage, and,
setting his jaws firmly, began to ad-
dress them. After a few general re-
marks on the beautiful tenets of the
great order of which he had been made
a member he proceeded to tell story,
suggested by his recent experiences.
He said: "When old Daniel refused to
comply with the demands of his
enemies they began to threaten him
with dire punishment. Look here, old
teller, if you don't obey the orders of
the king We'll fire you into the lions
den,' they said, but they couldn't scare
old Daniel. He realized that he had to
choose between going to hell if he
didn't do right and being flung into d
lions den if he did. He was in pretty
bad predicament, can tell you, but he
didn't hesitate long. He told them that
he was going to do just as he had been
doing, and that he didn't care a cent
whether their old king liked it or not.
So they yanked old Daniel up and they
took him to the lions den, and they
pitched him into it heels over head,
and they said: Now, old Teller, we've
settled with you
But Daniel was not dismayed, and
soon made himself at home among the
lions. He gave them to understand
that he was some lion himself. The
lions finished gnawing their bones and
began to stretch themselves out for a
nrp. The old he lion lay down in q
nice clean place and looked at Daniel,
as much as to say: Here, Daniel, you
come lie down here and put your head
ON my shaggy name for a pillow Dan
iel did so, and the lions soon fell asleep.
and all was quiet and peaceable as Dan
iel lay there with his head pillowed on
the lions name"
The audience sat breathless, while
the speakers face assumed quizzical
look, as II he was recalling his recent
experiences.
"As he lay there looking up toward
the mouth of the den old Daniel no
doubt thought of the choice he had
made, and how lucky he had been in fol-

ELEPHANTS NEW TRICK.
Tom Now Toots Horn In Addition to
His Other Accomplishments.

Tom, the wonderful trained elephant
o. the Central park zoo at New York,
has acquired a new accomplishment.
He is delighted with it, and so is Keeper
Snyder, who has charge of him. Tom
has been many years in this country,
and has spent most OF his time with
menageries. While with them he was
given the rudiments of his education,
and showed such natural aptitude that
il was pleasure to teach him. But it
is to Keeper Snyder, who has had charge
of him since he was brought to the zoo,
that most of his skillfulness is due.
An exhibition, ending with the new
trick, was given before a large crowd,

Variations.

AccorIng to the New York Suns Rome
(Ga.) correspondent, few nights ago
Rev. Sam P. Jones was initiated into the
mysteries of knight templar. A
special train was sent to Gainesville
to convey him to Rome, Ga.
OF course, what transpired within the
closed doors was not revealed to the I'M
initiated, but many remarks were made
by the outsiders concerning the hand
ling of the great exhorter by the
knights who had been excoriated so
frequently by the sarcastic tongue Of
the most picturesque pulpit orator that
Georgia has produced. About an hour
and half elapsed and then the knights
trooped into the banquet hall, their
swords jingling and epaulets flashing
in the electric lights, Rev. Sam Jones,
in charge of Eminent Commander John
J. Seay, leading the van. The assem-
bled knights addressed him as "Zerub-
babel" AS plain Sam Jones, he had en-
tered the mystic portals with a defiant
air and a smile of rild sarcasm ON his
lips. He emerged from the ceremonial
chamber with a bedraggled look, his
hair disheveled, a sword dangling at
his heels, and quizzical monkey and
parrot smile playing about his features.
Most Eminent Grand Commander Bill
Fleming, of Augusta, who succeeded
Judge Black as congressman from Tom
Watson's populistic domain, was ON
hand, and the grand generalissimo, Al
Walton, who has received the honorary
brevet of colonel since he left the west
and settled in Georgia, sat on the left
of Zerubbabel Jones, his expansive face
beaming with delight from the last
notch of his double chin around to the
nape of his neck.
The banquet proceeded, and for half
an hour the jingle of the knives and
forks kept time to the desultory CONVEX
sation carried on among the assembled
knights, all of whom cast furtive glances
from time to time in the direction of
Zerubbabel, as if to assure themselves
that he had not made his escape. At
