FLOWING WITH ELEPHANTS
Barnum's Reply to the Farmer Who
Asked Whether 1t Would Fay


Asked Whether 1t Would Pay.
It may be said of P. T. Barnum that
he was the major domo or lord of
laughter and fun. the protean dispenser
of amusement. How we'll he became
known through this function one curl
GUS incident certifes. Some years be-
fore he died an obscure person in some
reraote part of Asia wrote letter,
which he dropped in the postoffice near
him, directed to "Mr. Barnum, Ameri-
Ca" The letter Reached it's destination
without an hours delay. The great
Snowman unaffectedly enjoyed being
known from the very beginning of his
celebrity, and when he found hissceleb-
rfty was q tremendous factor in bis sue
cess he did everything that he could
think of to extend the exploitation Of
his name. This was not to nouFish
vain imaginings or because he felt sx
allied. 1t was to promote business.
Around his successive heanas at
Bridgeport, Conn.,, he was fond of put
ting something that suggested a, show.
Queerly marked cattle, the sacred COW
or an elephant was frequently among
the stock to be noticed in his fields.
On one occasion he had an elephant
engaged in blowing on the sloping hill
where it could be plainly seen by the
passengers on the New Haven and
Hartford railroad, an agricultural limo
walton that he knew would get notice
of some sort in every newspaper in the
country. 1t was even said that he re-
ceived letters from farmers far and
wide asking, how much hay one ele-
plant ate and if it was more profitable
to pillow with an elephant than with
horses or oxen. His replies were fn-
variably frank and were of this pur-
port: If you have large museum in
New York land a great railway sends
trains full of passengers within eye
shot of the performance, it will pay,
and pay well, but If you have no such
institution then horses and oxen. will
prove more economical-JoelB Benton in

daily riding over the hills with mem
bers of his staff. Along the road he
frequently holds conversations witt
miners, all of whom display friendly
feeling toward him personally.
Individual operators are beginning
to display evidence of willingness to
end the strike if a method could be
shown them how they could make con-
cessions to the men without stultifying
themselves. In speaking with mem
bers of the staff at brigade headquar-
tiers some have, within the past few
days, stated that if way could be
suggested whereby they could give in
without placing themselves in a bad
light they would favor settlement.
General Goblin is using his good Of
fees toward a settlement and he al
lows no opportunity to pass when in
conference with operators to make a
conservative plea for men on strike.

New York, Aug. 25.-In an inter
view on the coal strike ]. Pierpont
Morgan said:
IT am not the president of the coal
carrying roads. Why don't you let
these people settle the coal strike in
their own way? What action would /
take? .t.. 49,

suggestion that the miners have ex-
pected I would do something to bring
about the end of the strike or that

Throughout-t interview it was ap-
parent that Mr.. Morgan was not in
clined to take up the burden which
some of the anthracite directors and
the whole of Wall street has placed at
his feet.
The financial world expected M"
Morgan to consider the coal Strike on
his return and announce a policy OF
either compromise or support of the
presidents of the anthracite roads.

TO MAKE VERY FAST TIME.
Electric Cars Built for Trial on an
Illinois Road.

Illinois Road.
New York, Aug. 25.-An electrical
company at Lynn, Mass, is building
a train which is to soon be used in
Illinois, says special dispatch from
Lynn, and which the engineers esti.
mate will make ninety to one hundred
miles an hour. It is added that the
track for the train in Illinois is almost
completed; that the line is about $50
miles long and is remarkable for solid
ity and strength. AS far as possible
grades have been eliminated. Elec.
tricity will be the motive power and
the third rail system will be used.
A train of three cars has been built
for the first trials. The train will be
equipped with twelve motors of 100
horsepower each. Instead of the high
speed increasing the danger it is
claimed that the train will be safer
and run less risk of leaving the rails
than an ordinary street car. The
theory held by electricians is that the
train is practically electrically welded
to the track and cannot leave it while
the power is on. o.

MAN SERIOUSLY STABBED.
Strikers Assault Special Policeman at
HazIeton, Pa.


HazIeton, Pa.
Hazleton, Pa, Aug. 26.-August
Shuech, aged fifty-s1x years, a spe-
cial policeman in the service of the LIE
high Valley Coal company, was as
saulted and stabbed on the outskirts
of the city while attempting to rescue
his son, William Sheuch, nonunion
workman employed at the company's
No. 20 colliery, from a mob of about
5000 strikers who had gathered from
all parts of the Hazleton region on
the roads leading to the mine to frus.
trate the plans of the company for
partial resumption of operations wit,
a nonunion force of $50 hands.
A majority of the nonunion men
were taken to the workings in a spe-
cial train, with which the strikers did
not attempt to interfere. William
Sheuch, who lives in this city, walked
from his home toward the colliery and
thus fell into the hands of the pickets.
Most of the clothing was torn from his
back in the struggle which followed
When Sheuch's father rushed to his
aid the mob set upon the elder Sheucb,
who was finally rescued by a mine
foreman and removed to the miners
hospital.
Sheuch was stabbed in the breast
and on each hip, kicked in the abdo-
men and struck on the head with a
stone. His injuries are not serious.
The knife, which was sunk into his
breast, struck rib and that fact prob
ably saved his life. The effort to pre-
vent work st the mine was successful.
The report OF resumption at the
Cranberry colliery of A. Pardee & Co.
caused about 500 men to gather near
the mine, but no attempt was made to
start work.
