Two Fine Beasts That Had Slaves to Wait
on Them.
1t was our good fortune to be present
at an important meeting Of the khed-
dab at Chila, on the banks Of the
Ganges, where the Nepalese government
had sent down their magnificent troop
of tame elephants for the chase of wild
ones. The we're about $50 in number
magnificent, noble creatures, writes
contributor to the Boston journal.
The two finest among them were the
"kings' of the troop and were called
Bill Prasad and Marian Gaj Prasad.
Bill Prasad which means ''lord Of
lightning, was such a grand fellowl
The width Of his brows was so great
that he could not put his head through
our hall door, and he knows to the
smallest point what mighty creature
he is.
He and his companion, Marian Cal
Prasad, which means 1.-THE peerless
lord" are provided with two slave
elephants, and the only duty of the lat
ter is to fetch and provide fodder for
Bill and Marian Gaj. They do their
duty right we'll At early dawn their
mahouts, or drivers, drive them into
their jungles, and they work like real
slaves. They collect the sweet sugar
canes, tearing them up by the roots, the
young, succulent grasses and tender
leaves and heap them up in masses
which weigh about 800 pounds each.
These loads are put on their backs, and
thrice day they gladly carry in their
burdens and lay them at the feet of
their lords.
We went out by moonlight to see the
latter fed, and any child would enjoy
the strange sight. First of all the ma
bout makes great big campfire of twigs
and brushwood, and on it he places
large, fat iron dish, supported on two
bricks. Then he takes wheat flour and
kneads it with water into great round
fiat cakes about an inch thick and twice
the circumference Of soup plate.
These cakes he baxes on the iron dish
We were anxious to taste them, and
we found them very good. We punched
out with our fingers all the nice brown
spots and ate them, piping hot. And to
make up to Bill and Marian for taking
part of their supper, we had prepared
treat, of which they are particularly
fond From the bazaar we had brought
great balls of sugar cane juice boiled
down and made solid, called "goor" in
that country. Each ball was twice the
size of a tennis ball and in each wheat
cake or "capati" we rolled lump of
this molasses. You should have seen
how the big beasts enjoyed their feed
how their great trunks rested down on
our shoulders, always upturned for the
forthcoming delicacyl

July II, 1863 anniversary of Bull

saw, in 1864, also on the anniversary
of Bull Run.
Robert l.. McCook met his death in a
singular and most tragic manner. The
i'll starred general was one Of the most
promising Of all the fighting family.
AT the outbreak Of the war he raised in
Cincinnati the celebrated Prussian regi
