Prof. Gentry Has an Elephant on His
Hands.
The smallest living elephant in captiv-
ity is pinto" and Prof. Gentry, the
noted animal animal trainer, is the hap
py owner. For many years the PROBES
sor, who is always adding new and novel
features to his admirable exhibition, has
been in search of an elephant so small in
size that it would be a'veritabe curiosity
--one that would be a pleasing feature
with which to delight the large audi
ences, which are in daily attendance at
his most wonderful animal exhibition.
And at last one of his agents cabled from
Bombay, India, that he could secure
Pinto The price paid was something
like five dollars pound-and the little
fellow weighs trihe over 750 pounds
bat elephants are expensive and Pinto"
was deemed worth the large amount, and
so the little fellow was sent to America,
and on Wednesday, September IA, 1898,
the Adams Express Company delivered
to Prof. Gentry, at Aurora, ILL.,, a most
unique package -"Pinto."

Bolt in Convention.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Jan. 9.-The first
session OF the United Mine Workers to-
day was very exciting. Immediately
after the opening Of the session a dis
putc arose between President Ratch-
ford and President Doan over the ap-
poIntmcnt OF the credentials committee.
and the entire session was taken up
with an acrimonious discussion as to
the right Of the chairman to name tho
committee. At 1880 o'clock the con-
ventlon adjourned until tomorrow.
without having taken 4 ballot for tho
new officers.
After adjournment the delegates con-
grcgated in groups, and much excite
n,eHt was evident. Charges OF trick
cry flew thick and fast. and Tomorrow
there may be a bolt from the conven-
tlon.
One OF the principal causes for oppo-
sltion to the administration faction IS
that the president. NJ. D. Ratchford.
now holds government office. and 1t
Is thought he should not exercise the
functions of the presidential office and
take so much interest in the election
OF officers us he Is.
