The Lockhart Elephants.

The world famous Lockharts trained
elephants will be seen mt the Dixie next
week. This is the biggest card and the
most expensive act on the vaudeville
stage today, These animals perform feats
which are the wonder and admiration TO
all beholders, 1t is marvellous how such
enormous beasts can bo trained TO do
such different tricks with such perfect
ease,
They walk across the stage on the
necks of bottles, ride bicycle, play ten
pins, play the band and do many other
almost impossible feats.
The four Lockhart elephants love their
master and go through their act with
scarcely a word of command, Tom Tom
the baby ia always a favorite with la
dies and children. This act does not play
excepting in the largest cities and the
finest houses and Scranton is fortunate
to have an opportunity of witnessing it,
Mr. Dixie has gone to much trouble and
expense to secure this attraction for the
editicaton of his patrons,

SNAKE LIKED :.JABEZ.
Rattler's Loyalty to the Man Who
 Had Saved Its Life.
Literally Torn fin Two by Conflicting Emotions-LessOn in Reptilt&n .i Nature That Should Make
 Better Men of Us.

"A New York World correspondent. writing from Bowersox, Coke county, Pa., Under recent date, reports that Ja- beg w. Posthanger, the famous trapper of Silent Woman creek, came to town this morning for his annual supply of stores. He brought with him, among other things, half of a small snake skin concerning which he tells the fol- lowing veracious story:
 ''I was coming home from setting my traps one morning along about the first of April" says Jabez, when ! heard a frightful row in the bushes, like as if wildcat was throwing a fit and then tgying to pick it up again. I opened the brush, and there, in lit tie clearing, was the queerest sight you ever struck.
 ''In the middleiof the clearing was 8 little rattlesnake, not morn three foot long. Around him on the ground Lay the torn and mangled bodies of 12 blacksnakes, not one of lem less than twice as big as he was. And 12 more of the same size was still fighting him. He'd evidently wandered into nest of gigantic blacksnakes and had been at- tackled by the whole shooting match.
 esHe was fighting plenty, unappeased and tempestuous, and he'd killed half his foes, but any fool could see at glance that the others would be too many for him, for he1was breathing hard and his, eye was glazing.
 ''Well, his pluck tickled. me,so much I just rushed in and scattered those assailants of his every which way. Then I started home.
 'But that little snake I'd saved was chock full of gratitude. He followed me home like dog, and slept on the threshold. couldn't drive him away.
 sBimeby got to be fond of him, he wasso devoted, and named him Simon

Cameron after the first man I ever voted for, back in '67.
 ''Well, Simon Cameron soon became as much a part of my household as I was. And he was the usefulest pet I ever saw. Why, when my alarm clock smashed, he hung himself on the head of the bed, and at exactly 6:15 every morning he'd spring his rattles till he woke me up.
 '"That wasn't but one of the many slick tricks he had.
 Well, along about May, when spring set in, Simon Cameron began to grow sad. I could see he longe@to be back in the hills among his own kind, and yet his loyalty to me kept him at the cabin.
 ''One morning he didn't wake me up that afternoon. Then came across a torn half of his body just outside the door. You see it was this way:
 1His wild nature had drawn him back to the hills. His loyalty to me had held him where he was, and I'll be golblasted if them two conflicting attractions, one drawing him each way, hadn't pulled him clean in half.
 And you can bet your hopes of crops, gentlemen finished Jabez, tearfully, "that I'll never, so long as l live, part with the loyal half I've still got. It's a lesson in snake nature that ought to make better men of us all"

Chemicals in nIi1k

Evidence is accruing that the prac- . tice of adding artificial coforing mat ter to milk is increasing. Samples are commonly met with thus colored to give them a rich but false creamy aspect. The natural color of milk bears no relation necessarily to the amount of cream present. It is very desirable that this practice should be stopped. We believe that annotto is the dye com .amonly employed, and it is fortunate that it is harmless, though that fact does not justify the device. Certain coal tar dyes have, however. been de- sected in milk, and among them methyl- orange, or, in chemical nomencla- ture, the sodium salt of dimethyaline- azobenzene-sulphonic acid. = London Lancet.

 the same moment mounted police
 agents appeared on the scene. The manager of the Folies, where the girls Iare engaged, had given the informa- tion. Mana allowed herself to be hustled off into carriage, but the weapon was forced from her hand

According to the Paris correspond ent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat one of King Leopold's ballet girl ifriends, Gabrielle Fisson, known on
 the stage as Mana, fought a regular duel with her rival, Victorine Giot, who lcalls herself La Marquise.4 Both girls were in love with the same man, but this time it wasn't case of revenue, for Leon Bournon, though society man, has only an income of 800 francs lper month. All the girls worship him for his shape and his mustache. The two women met on one of the boule- wards and addressed each other in about the same words: "Thou lowest

In practically all European na- tlons the craze for gambling con- tinues with all the fervor of past cen- turies. It is a craze that pervades all classes, of society from the very richest to the very poorest, and to attempt to stamp it out would meet with so violent a protest that it would be next to impossible to ac- complish the result. Many of the smaller states and principa1ities de- rive no small amount of their income from this mania for gambling by providing the people with the means for satisfying it, and, of course, reaping the profit that always falls to the hands of the party running the schemes.
 The state lottery is a prominent feature in Prussian family life, for almost every Prussian, high or low, is in some way interested in it. The rich man takes a whole ticket with the chance of winning 25,O0O ivres; the middle-class paterfamilias takes a quarter of a ticket, the working man or woman takes a tenth, and still poorer people club together to take a tenth among them. The whole ticket costs eight livres, and as the 100000 tickets are nearly always sold, upwards of 1,5oo,0oO livres are col lected twice a year by the officials of the lottery department.
 A large sum is returned in prizes, which are all paid in cash, but the government still makes very hand some profit. Y.

A boy from an orphanage takes out from the wheel one of the little num- bered rolls, another orphan boy un- folds it and passes it to an official, who reads it aloud. Simultaneously another boy has taken from small CT wheel little roll on which the value of prize is written. This is handed by another boy to an official,

When finished, the whole will form one of the most attractive drives in southern Europe, and will make the means of communication between Athens and the sea much more easy and agreeable.

Chinamen as Debt Dodgers.

New Year time in China is always fruitful of fires. It is the Chinese cus- tom that all debts must be hquidated by the end of the year. Failure to do so means utter ruin of one's credit. It frequently happens that a Chinaman, seeing disgrace staring him in the face. will set fire to his house and thus plead to his creditors: "How could I pay? The gods have destroyed my fhome. Ask the gods for the money" In this way, if not detected, honor is cago Chronicle.
