Suggested ~ the Cause Of the sudden
Frenzy OF EisphAnta.
"I told you the other day about the
Sultan of Zanzibar's clock" said Rob-
ert Crawford. but there was another
thing heard OF while In that country
which is not without interest. The
Sultan used to take me round to show
me the place and of what its trade con-
sisted. 1t is the greatest Glove raising
country in the world. and as such con-
veys comfort and courage to out be-
tween the acts theater goers the world
over. Other spices and cocoanut rope
are also important features of their ex-
port trade. But in addition to the
sale of that which they raise within
their own borders their revenues are
largely increased by the trade in ivory.
Zanzibar is the greatest market 70:
South African ivory. which is brought
there in large quantities from the in
terror. This ivory is placed in large
warehouses. from which it is either
sold at once or else held therein for Il
better market The man in charge
of these warehouses was very in
ivory. He told me many curious things
about 1t. and among others propounded
the following theory as an explanation
of why elephants go mad and occa-
sionally run amuck: In the warehouse
were n pair of magnificent tusks, meas
uring IA feet from tip to tip, which in
life must have been carried by a YER
liable Goliath among elephants. The
expert in showing me these tusks
pointed out the fact that while one of
the tusks was complete and hawless.
the other was broken off at the point
and showed deep scratches and abra-
sions throughout its length. Now,
said he. if you will look near the base
you will find 4 hole made by decay
that had struck into the nerves and
given that elephant toothache. and
think what a tcotEachc of toothaches
fourteen-foct tooth must have held
In his efforts to relieve this pain the
elephant rubbed his tusk against rocks
and trees and drove 1t into the earth,
which mutilatcd it in the manner you
see here. | have frequently come across
places where an elephant has ripped
up great spaces in forest and torn
down trees, and l am positive that
toothache was the cause of this frenzy
An elephant in circus going suddenly
mad and killing his keeper is not an
uncommon thing. but I'll wager that
in nine cases out of ten If they would
properly investigate the matter they
would find that the brute's sudden
frenzy sprung from so ordinary a
cause as common. everyday tooth

Frightening tho Lions.


NJ. Foa the French explorer. says
African wolves. which hunt in packs,
and do not scruple to attack even the
lion. There are terrible battles IN
which the lion succumbs to numbers,
and dies fighting. In connection with
the lions fear of wolves, M. Foa tells
Il story from his own experience. 1t
was very dark night, so black that
trees could not be distinguished until
the travellers We're close upon them.
Lions prowled about the party. one OF
them roaring from point so close
as to have an alarming effect on the
nerves. The animals could not be
seen. but they could be heard on ali
sides. Reaching tree. the men found
one of their comrades with rifle cooked
peering into the darkness, trying to
discover the whereabouts of the ami
mails. that could be plainly heard walk
ing among the leaves. A second man
was trying to relight half-eXtin-
guished torch. Still the lions could
be heard coming and going in the
darkness At this point the ma
tive servant whispered the advice
to initiate the cry of wolves in
the distance. The party at once be-
gan barking and shouting. "Hu! hu!
hui" In an undertone, as If the pack
were still at distance. while the man
at the camp made the same well-im-
tated cry. The effect was instantane-
ous. There was the sound of rapid
stampede across the dry leaves. The
lions decamped in n. panic. driven on
by the supposed approach of pack
of wolves. For the rest of the night
the party was undisturbed.
