AN ELEPHANTS FOOT.
One of she Most PonderOus Pieces of
Animal Anatomy.

Animal Anatomy.
Anyone who ever glanced at the foot
of an elephant n ST be aware that tits
ponderous piece of anatomy, but its
actual size is best illustrated by an
anecdote.
Two men in the Central park zooveFe
speaking on this subject, and one of
them thought the circumference of the
foot must measure at least four feet.
His friend laughed at this, but the
younger man, after a second time gaug-
ing the size, insisted that his guess was
correct.
"Nonsense-quite impossible!" ex-
claimed his friend.
And then, as the younger man still
claimed that he was right, they laid
wager and referred the matter to the
keeper.
what is the circumference of the
fore foot of that big elephant?" they
asked.
The circumference of an elephants
foot is very nearly half the animals
height" replied the keeper.
''Will you be so good as to measure
it?" asked the amazed visitor.
And the keeper got a long cord and
went in beside the monster, Bazzle, who
stands eight feet five inches in height.
"Of course l measure while the ami
NAL is standing squarely on all fours,"
he said. "If l were to take the foot up
from the floor, it would not be quite so
large; a small part of that size is
caused by the spreading out of the soft
matter of the foot by the pressure of
the animals own weight"
He drew the cord around the monster
foot, held it up, and measured it with
tape line. The figures showed four
feet two inches.
The man who had lost the bet paid it,
with the remark that he did not think
he was paying too dearly for that curl

ANGRY FoR TaIRTY YEARS.
Because HIS Wife Sevxed the Wrong
Button on His Vest

Button on His Vest.
Because Mrs. Marion w Hatton threw
a stool at him and sewed pants button
on his vest nearly 80 years ago, Theo-
core h on wants an absolute divorce,
says the Syracuse (N. " Herald The
action is brought in the state of Illinois,
and evidence is being taken in this city,
both for the plaintiff and the defendant.
The parties are well advanced down the
toboggan of time. the defendant being
upward of so years old and the plaintiff
at least as aged.
There are some interesting things
about the case. Until about 1872 the
Hattons lived near Amboy. supposedly
happy, as all married people are to be
considered until they reach the courts.
One day the plaintiff, after a quarrel
with his wife, which neither claim was
regarded more than a trivial matter, left
his home al went west He was heard
from at various times, but no contribu-
tions to the support of his wife and
child were received.
A short time ago Mrs. Hatton heard
that her husband had brousht suit for
divorce, and that judgment was about
to be entered by default. The matter
looked irregular, as Mrs. Hatton had
never, she says, received a service of the
papers or an intimation of the litiga-
ton until informed by an acquaintance.
An answer was put in denying the
charges made Ard alleging the facts as
Mrs. Hatton and the people about Am
boy remember them. 1t is said that
Hatton, since living in Chicago, his
present residence, has accumulated
some property.

Messrs. North and n. f. Leopold have
an option on the Arcadian as well as the
Edwards and Concord and they have
given Capt. Wilcox free discretion to 90

the property was worked six years ago

The three properties give l 100 feet on

intend to open no all winter and not do
any stopping until next spring ut least.
