throwing down his express rifle, he
sought safety in flight. Near at hand was
a steep hill, and to this he directed his
steps, for, being but slightly acquainted
with the climbing powers of the elephant.
he thought his pursuer might be 5afi1ed
by the steepness of the ascent. 1t was
terrible disappointment to find that the
elephant could climb hill just as quickly
as the hunter, nimble runner as he was.
The fugitive. indeed, would have soon
been overtaken IL he had not thought OF a
really ingenious ruse. He knew that ele-
phants never run, or even walk, down
steep incline, but always crouch down,
gather their feet together. lean well back
and slide down. Just as the ferocious ami
nal had got within few yards OF MIN.
therefore, the willy hunter suddenly doubled
and ran down the hill again! Quick as
flash the elephant turned. gathered nlm-
self together and trumpeting with oanied
rage, slid down after his victim. The hunt

as the great beast came tobogganing
after him. smashing trees and SHRUBS ana
carving everything before it like an ava

Adjutnnt Generals Order Expected

for the Summer Encampment.

Commander of the Grand Army Hen
bricks was in consultation this morning
with Adjutant General Dapray, arranging
the details OF the Memorial Day parade.
in which both the Grand Army and the
National Guard will participate. The
Guard will doubtless head the march
through the city streets. acting as escort
to the Grand Army veterans. The exact
route of march has not yet been definitely
determined upon, but 1t is probable that
the Guard will march from the Centre
Market Armory to Thirty-fou Street In
Georgetown, after which it will return to
the city.
The Grand Army men will continue to
Arlington to attend the memorial ceremo-
MES to be held there. The order for the
turning out of the Guard has not yet been
sent, but will probably be sent out today
or tomorrow The line will be made up
as far as the Guard is concerned as fol-
lows: First, Second Regiment; second,
First Regiment; third, First Separate Bat
talion; fourth, Naval Battalion; hfth. sig-
nal Corps; sixth. Light Battery; and sew.
enth, Ambulance Corps. The parade will
uniform will be worn and general ana
all staff and regimental officers will be
mounted.
The Adjutant General is now engaged IN
preparing the general order for the sum-
mer encampment which will be held from
June 8 to l6. The order will be issued In
a day or two. The site selected Is known
as Whites farm, on the Leesburg Turn
pike, about one mile from the town OF
Leesburg, in Virginia The camp is to be
called Camp Ordway." The entire brig
ade, with the exception of the Light Bat
terry, will leave the city by train over the
Southern Railway at S:15 o'clock on the
morning of the 8th. The Light Battery
will start at O'Clock in the afternoon OF
the day before and will go overland.
For the government of this encampment,
very rigid rules concerning superfiuous
baggage will be enforced. The men will
carry their extra change of underclothing,
shelter tent and toilet articles in blanket
roll to be worn about the body, thus doing
away with the knapsack. The baggage OF
officers will be restricted to the lowest pos
sible quantity. All camp property includ-
ing tents cooking utensiles and other nee
eEsary articles, will be issued by the quar-
termaster after the brigade has reached
camp. This is contrary to previous prac-
tices. Only the regulation field uniform
will be worn during the encampment, with
the exception of blue flannel shirts. which
will be issued before the brigade leaves the
city.

somewhat as follows: The wife of a

from fulfilling a clandestine meeting with
the wife Of fellow -clubman. In order
to accomplish this end, the actress en-

couple are interjected for no apparent pur-
pose save to increase the lewdness, a little
play is rehearsed to permit the actress to
do a pantomime sketch. but this is merely
incidental TO the stupid and bestial plot.

1T CAN'T BE DONE.
NO One Can Remain Well, No Chronic

This Is plain because every organ In the
body depends on the stomach for Its nour-
ishment. Nerve, bone, sinew, blood are
made from the food which the stomach
converts to our use.

that and the other remedy and neglect the
most important of all. the stomach.
The earliest symptoms Of Indigestion are
sour risings, bad taste in the mouth, gas
in stomach and bowels, palpitation. SILL
gone feeling, faintness, headaches, consti-
patton; later comes loss Of flesh. consump-
tion, liver and heart troubles. kidney dis
ease, nervous prostration, all Of which are
the indirect result of poor nutrition.
Any person suffering from Indigestion
should make It a practice to take after
each meal one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's allowing it to dissolve in the mouth
and thus mingle with the saliva and enter
the stomach in the, most natural way.
These tablets are highly recommended by
DR.. Jennison because they are composed
of the natural digestive acids and fruit
essences which assist the stomach in d.
gesting all wholesome food before 1t has
time to ferment and sour.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
druggists, full sized packages at so cents.

ourw1TT1Na AN ELEPHANT.
The Hunter Saved by His knowledge
of the Beasts Habits.


Only those familiar with the manners
and customs" of the elephant have any
idea what a nimble creature it really is.
Massive and slow-footed as it looks, it is
capable, when reused. of feats that would
be difficult for much fleeter animals. Es-
pecially Is this the case with African ele-
plants, which, though taller, are general
ly lighter than their Asiatic brethren.
Moreover, accustomed for ages to lead a
wild life. and often depending on their
alertness and speed of foot for their very
existence. they have acquired skill In
gymnastics which has occasionally taken
even old elephant-hunters by surprise.
In illustration of this fact We are re-
minded Of story told by one OF the no.
BILE army of British sportsmen in Africa.
He was ''out after elephants" and had just
fired at and wounded a magnificent speci-
men. Unfortunately for him, he had only
succeeded in slightly wounding 1t. when.
infuriated by the attack, it turned and
charged him ears spread out like sails. and
emitting shrill notes Of rage, 1t came thun-
dering over the ground like runaway To-
connective. The hunter fred another shot.
