was milking his COW as they passed and
he thought they were the Japanese sec

Taking the milk to the house, he went to

tied the money with the court. Jacobs
got verdict for $3.50. The case was ap-

THIS ELEPHANT A BORN MIMIC
In His Mischievous Moods "Babe''
Stands on His Head

There is baby elephant up at Glen
Island just about as initiative as a mon
key and as mischievous as a basket of
kittens. It's latest fad is standing on its
little head when nobody is looking.
1t is the intention of the mana cement
of Glen Island to have permanent ex-
position of trained animals, and with
this end in view Trainer w. A. Conklin,
who for so many years superintendent
the Central Park ZOO was commissioned
to secure three additional elephants. So
he got BASIL big phlegmatic beast;
Siam, who is being trained to stand on
his head, play cornet and to waltz, and
Babe, a 14months-old infant.
1t is Babes high degree of intelligence
and mischievous inclinations that causes
the trouble. He is born clown and imi-
tates the others in nearly everything
they do.
Siam was taking his usual training
lesson Friday with Babe as an interested
spectator. Walter Bannister and his
corps of assistants had been working for
an hour endeavoring to get the beast to
stand on his head. He seemed willing
to do what was wanted, but was at a
loss to know how to go about it. Babe
took it all in with a look of profound
amazement in his intelligent eyes.
Finally Siam managed get his rear
feet in the air and balanced on his head
for several seconds Babe looked at him
intently an instant then began to imi-
tate him. Three times he made the at
tempt to do what he had seen the other
elephant do before he succeeded. Then
he trumpeted as if fully approaching
that he had accomplished without as
sistance what had taken the other beast
many lessons to achieve.
A few hours later Siam was. given his
cornet lesson. The instrument was
placed on stand before him and he was
made to place his trunk to the mouth
piece and pump. air into it. The result
is not the production of as pretty music
as is heard elsewhere on Glen Island,
but it makes up in volume what is lack
ing in melody. Babe watched the oper-
alton closely and then endeavored to
stretch his trunk to the instrument. He
was beaten back and Slams lesson pro-
ceeded
Babe retaliated by throwing gravel
and tossing hay at the attendants. He

extent that he had to be removed to the
further end of the shed, where he was
tied to a stake out of reach of the hay.
Near the stake was tin pail filled with
water. He tipped the pail over then
putting the end of his trunk inside pro-
duced a noise as near to an imitation of
a cornet note as was possible.
The elephants are put to practical use
at Glen Island, and can frequently be
seen drawing heavy loads Babe was
hitched to a cart one day and saw man
in advance of him pulling up signs. The
management had decided to have them
reprinted.
A few days later when the signs had
been newly painted and replaced in their
respective positions Babe was lumber
ing along the path with load of cinder
behind him. He was unattended and
took longer time than usual. A man
was sent to ascertain the reason and
found the elephant diligently pulling up
every sign he came across. He would
stop before each one and yank it up with

Lost Horse" mine, as the indications,
the character of the ore and the country
formation are said to be Identical with
that Of the great Lost Horse" The ore
IL absolutely free milling. the only free
milling ore so far found in Eagle noun
tain. At the bottom of an eight~foot
shaft the ledge is thirty-eight inches
wide between two fine walls and assays
from $500 to $42687 free gold per ton.
This is the Essie l. mine, and one of the
great advantages is in its near proxim-
ity to water, being within five or six
miles of the Oriole springs, which the
owners of the mine have located. These
springs, 1t is claimed, are the only run
ming water in the entire district, though
BrazePs we'll and Buzzard spring have
never been known to go dry in summer.
These parties are the locators of the
Dude of the Desert and Wizard mines,
some five miles north of Cottonwood
springs This ledge is from Six to ten
feet wide and crops out-the entire dis
lance of two claims. There is over $50 900
worth of So to $40 concentrating ore in
sight.
Across the small valley north of Eagle
mountain and adjoining Virginia Dale
on the south is the Pinto Mountain dis
trfct. Though this property is not a
part of Eagle mountain. yet it is included
in Eagle Mountain district. Here rich
placer ground has been discovered
lately.
Bradenberger Donovan and Curtis
claim to have taken out with dry
washer in two months 1873 ounces of gold
going from 1854 to 1887 per ounce.
Other placer miners are doing fairly
well. The ground is all located. Water
is hauled from Cottonwood springs,
some twenty-six miles away, though
during the rainy season several tanks
afford sufficient water for domestic use.
Above the placers several rich gold
leads have been found and chloriders
have for several years been doing well
The district is a network of veins, all
averaging we'll, and so far as developed
improving In depth. Here the McGrath
boys have lately taken out some eight
or ten tons from the Moose mine and
milled it in their steam arrastra at Cot
tonwood springs. The ore went $45 in
free gold besides $26 in concentrates. The
mine is new prospect but indications
are that 1t will soon be cassed with the
reSurar producers or the desert. In this
locality are many other fine properties
and it lis no exaggeration to say that be-
fore another spring the entire country
will be watching with interest that part
of the desert known as Eagle and Pinto
mountains though at present it is nc
place for the poor man, but for the mar
with small capital looking for invest
ment.
The great need of the 'district is Gus
tom mill at Cottonwood springs, where
small owners can have their ore worked
thereby paying part if not all of the
developing expense of their claims.
Small shipments have from time to time
been made to Selby and other works,
but the expense is too great to be sue
cessfully carried on to any extent by
men of limited CAPITAL f. S L.

Suddenly the widest interest and ex-
element were aroused by a clue A
great shout arose at the center of the
ling line, Disregarding military strict
ness, the men came hurrying in from
both sides, and we were soon gazing on
what proved to be the frozen carcass of
an Indian pony 1t was tied to a tele-
graph pole, and the taut-drawn knot of
the rawhide halter showed that the poor
animals struggle for life had been a
brave one.
With the pole as a center the soldiers
eagerly set out in radial directions to
cover the surrounding ground while a
little knot of officers stood by the dead
pony, our excitement reused to the high
est point of expectation.
Soon a shout from a tall trooper on the
right, not hundred yards away, brought
US to the spot with rush. Then, except
for the voice of a sergeant as he directed
the men in their labor of scraping away
the ice and snow, there was dead silence
Quickly the work progressed, and soon
two frozen forms were brought to view.
The under body, the hands clasped
tightly around the waist of the other and
the face wearing an expression Of abject
fear, was that of Private Eckstein of
Troop H. The other one, hatless and
bootless, his face a study of courage
and stern determination, and his right
hand grasping Eckstein's throat in a
grasp which two men could scarcely
break, was the lifeless body of Private
Barney Hogan of Troop C. Not ten
feet away, valise was picked up which
contained unframed $4,000 in gold and
greenbacks.-Charles Dudley Rhodes, in
