KINGS AMONG ELEPHANTS.
Two Fine Beasts That Had Slaves to Wait
ON Them.


Two Fine Beasts That Had Slaves to Wait
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. They were about $50 in number
magnificent, noble creatures, writes a
contributor TO the Boston Journal.
The two finest among them were the
kings" of the troop and were called
Siji Prasad and Marian Gaj Prasad.
Bill Prasad, wGch means lord Of
lightning, was such 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 a mighty creature
he is.
He and his companion, Marian Gaj
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 Cal. 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
hout makes a great big campfire of twigs
and brushwood, and on it ne places u
large, fiat 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 a soup plate.
These cakes he bikes 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 Il
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 III each wheat
cake or "capati' we rolled a 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 delicacy!

At Home Again.

81 defy any man to stay away from
his native town so long that on his re-
turn there will be nothing left to re-
mind him of the old days." said a sue
cessful western man, who had just paid
"a visit 10 his birthplace, IA iiGtle village
of northern New Hampshire.
''When saw. Trowbury, after lapse
of 40 years, it seemed to me there was
not a single thing which had remained
unchanged. The town has become u
place of mills and industry; all its old
sleepy charm Is gone. My old schoolfel-
lows are gray headed, sober men, and
the men of 40 years ago are either tot
tering with age or at rest in the grave
yard.
when saw my old chums, 'Bounc-
ing Bob'-so named from his prodigious
weight-and Slab Peters, whose name
was also the result of natures allot-
ment of flesh, my heart sank, for Bounc
ing Bob is lank and bony, while Slab
Peters would require two seats in a
street car.
- Doubling Phipps, who used to mis-
trust all statements, whether as TO the
shape of the globe or the price of pea

away that he seldom came to town.
THE night before L came away L was
telling couple of young men at the
postoffice something about my wheat
farm, in answer to their questions.
81 had just made "a statement in re-
gard to the number of bushels yielded
the year before, when was startled by
a drawing voice behind me, proceeding
from a man who had entered the store
while my back was turned.

tolerant haste to confront the newcomer,
but / wheeled around with a sudden

"I suppose. said Mr.. Staybolt, "that

that next to the love of those we hold
dearest, of parents, wives and children,
the greatest boon to man is labor. Pow

power to labor, and that would mean

PLENTY OF COAL YET.

While |. Is fact generally admitted that the coal supply of England Is about at it's maximum. and that the im- portatioa of cOals to Newcastle is all ready begun. despite the old saying there is no danger that the United States will be colless for many a cycle of years to come. The coal supply of the nation Is not third of what It could be made today If the production were pushed.
 We have fifteen times the coal area of Great Britain so far discovered, and every year adds to the available coun- try found full of it. About l5O.0OO square miles are now mined. and many more could be: in fact, 1t Is de- clared the United States could increase this area ten times over. Thirty-ii five years ago this country only produced 25.000.000 tons; now it takes out 250. 0.000, 900 every year.
 Pennsylvania Is the great coal state: 1t produces now l35. 5.OOO,O0 tons annu- ally. It could probably increase this 70 300, ,000. 900 tons without much of a strain. Illinois now takes out 25,OOO ,0OC tons, but could produce G0,O0o,OO0 tons if 1t were required. For Ohio. 1t may he estimated that 3T,0G0.)00 tons could be obtained; for Alabama 10000, 900: for Colorado and Ohio c0.O0O00O each; Kan sas and Missouri are gooc: for 10000, 900: Indiana and Maryland the same: Ten nessae and Wyoming are also in this class; Kentucky is good for lj.O00.00t Washington, Virginia, Arkansas, Mon- tana and ,.he rest will run under 10000, 900 apiece. but the total, as calculated Is about 7o0CO0,O0 tons as the maxi mum output of the country. Surely at that rate. We shall not be cold very soon.

MT. St. Charles yesterday uttered a suspicion that one of the crimes conf
 mitsed by the territorial A BOLDLY board of equalization EXPRESSED was interference with SUSPICION. county assessments. We
 have all along feared the same thing. but didn't like to speak about it and wouldn't do so now. only that Mir. St. Charles has made his sus- picion public. We will go even farther than Mir. St. Charles. We believe that Ithe framers Of the law creating the board had that fell purpose in mind. We have also believed that axes. though made oste'nsibly to sell. are really made to be used in the devilish occupation of cutting wood. We have also had a suspicion that houses are constructed with the treacherous end in view of sheltering human beings from wintry blasts and the blazing heat of summer, and We further have a sneaking idea that the ulterior motive of those who manufacture food is to get 1t into the stomachs of the un- suspecting.,
 The legislature should act upon MT. St. Charles boldly expressed suspicion. A most diligent inquiry should be set on foot and if 1t shall result in a definite showing that the territorial board of equalization has been at any time en- gagged in interfering With the assess ments made In any county law should be passed prohibiting a repetition of the offense under such a severe pen- alty that the board of equalization wild not run the risk of doing any more euualizing. It should be restricted to it's legitimate business of drawing ls per diem and leaving the county boards of equalization alone.

 ton dangling at his belt He was armed with a great deal of transformation about the opera tions of the board and a remona rance against it signed by many of his con stituents. He presented himself wild eyed at the office of the governor and denounced the abolition of the board forthwith. The subject of the remon- strance was thsja the horses, cattle, goats, sheep and mules of his county were more extravagantly valued by the territorial board of equalization than those of any other county fin the terri stroying angel to the office of the ter ritorial board. where he again unfolded his remonstrance. He was shown that
 
 the board had done absolutely nothing to the live stock of his county; that the lists forwarded by the supervisors sitting as a county board of equaliza- ton had been unchanged. Upon this showing the member from the north stuffed the document into his pocket, saving that he kney nothing about the case. but was acting wholly upon the information given him at home. He is still, however. at war with the board. breathing destruction and slaughter. Would he not better get at the root of his ailment and abolish the board of supervisors of Mohave county. or pre- vent them from sitting as board of equalization"

It is true that the horses of Mohavt county have been assessed higher than those of any other county in tho territory. The supervisors of tha, county in equallGing that assess:nen, acted properly, for the horses of Mo. have as a class ar. more valuable than those of any other county in Ari. zona. They are large American horses used In hauling ore and heavy freight. Ing.
