SUPERB, WAS THE SACRED MUSICAL
 CONCERT. The Program Heard by a Large Audience at the Presbyterian Church Sunday Night.

The sacred musical concert given by the choir complimentary to Mrs. T. l.. Anderson, at the First Presby- terian Church Sunday night, was attended by a large and highly pleased audience.
 participated in by our most noted local musicians.
 The most pleasing feature of the occasion was the singing of Mrs. Anderson, which was truly superb, and it is to be doubted if d sweeter voice has been heard in this city since the noted visit of the celebrated songstress, Ellen Beach Yaw. Mrs. Anderson possesses highly cnlti- vated soprano voice, and her selec- tions were highly enjoyd by all for tunate enough to be present last night.
 Not Ashamed of Jesus" by Mrs. M E. Bloom, was also pleasngly rendered. Mrs. Bloom has d very oNCCt SoplalO NOiCt, dH9 Her Selcc- tion last evening was highly enjoyed.
 Nearer My God to Thee" by Mrs. Maud Stanley, was also a pleas- ing feature. Mrs. Stanley possesses very rich contralto voice.. Mrs. ". H. Langford presided at the organ. and so skinfnily did she manipulate the keys that 1t is diff. cult to say whether the audience was most interested in the singing or the pipe-organ. Mrs. Langford is most accomplished musician and her efforts are always highly enjoyed. Never was the organ more melodious than on this occasion.
 The sermon preached by The Rev. J. l.. CalwelI was in keeping with the occasion. Praise was his theme, and he handled his subject in an able and most interesting manner. 4
 The entire program was highly enjoyable, and those who were pres ent last evening will hope for an early return oi the occasion. The program was as follows:

When, few years ago, some of the

At about nine o'clock in the evening

may use the term, of fire and water
was perhaps never before witnessed.
The flames literally danced on the
waves, blending all their magic beauty
with the splashing restlessness of their
limpid antagonist.
The dark green color of the Caspian
shone by the reflection of the subdued
light riding boldly on the very foam of
the surface. At length the gale in
creased, the naphtha covering became
more and more broken and the glowing
carpet extended over a great distance
of the sea, gradually assuming the as

An Elephants Practical .vok..

In 1870 a near relative of mine was
head of the Indian military police, and
his winter circuit comprised the
Looshai country and hill tracts. Herds
of wild elephants abounded in the dis
trict, which contained two important
kheddahs. The greater part of our
tour was made 10y water; and once we
were detained several days in the bed
of river, through the insuficiency OF
water for the draft of our boats. Some
of them lay high and dry; but the office
boat, which consisted of a single cabin.
with large doors fore and aft, was in
the stream. My friend sat in this cabin,
absorbed in official correspondence,
while we explored the shores. Sudden
ly looking up, he was dismayed to find
herd of about 40 wild elephants, head
ed by vicious-looking leader, gazing
steadily at the boat and it's solitary oc-
cupant. Stout soldier as he was, he
watched, the leader with considerable
trepidation; for on his action depended
thatsto be adopted by the herd. 70 his
immense relief, afterfa: trumpet or two,
the leader turned Sdisdainfully and
crossed ,,o Sc the t stream. ed He breatheda 4 sigh
of relief, and had forgotten his lucky
escape in the absorption of work when
swish! through the cabin came dash
after dash of water. On the opposite
side stood the leader and his hero, with
well-filled trunks. One after the other
administered the shower-bath, and then
retreated, leaving my friend thorough
ly ducked, and very rueful over the
damp condition of his government pa
pers and surroundings; but thankful
for his escape from a worse fate than a
wetting.-Marie A. Millie, in st. Nicho-
