Elephant Intelligence.
From the Strand Magazine.


When Sanderson Sahib was alive an ele-
plant which broke lines was shot dead.
Escaping servitude in life, he found liberty
with death. Sanderson passed away. and his
chief Hindoo assistant stepped into his
place. Like many, If not most, natives, this
man has a superstitious dread of actually
, taking life. AS result elephants escaped
and communicated their discoveries to the
herds, who now continually break away
at the critical last moment. Perhaps part
of the decline may be due to the absence Of
the genius which Sanderson brought to his
task but that failure to maintain his shoot
ing policy may be justly held accountable
for many fascos is clearly shown by my
story. In a keddah drive some few years
since huge tusker broke cut" and es-
capped. Next year the same tusker was
with the doomed herd, but now he did not
break away. On the contrary, he led his
fellows right toward the entrance of the
stockade; but then the splendid int .iigence
Of his race flashed out. Siuing right round
pass. he faced the herd. Urged on by the
cries and closing in of the heaters, his com,
paniOns came UP one by one. But he never
moved. The gate to which hundreds Of
heaters had driven their prey could be ens
tered by none. All day he butted away his
less sagacdous comrades who desired to
come into the trap, and at night he led the
whole herd In a wild stampede for freedom.
Nothing In all the world, not even a battery
of heavy guns. could stop the stampede OF
a score or more of elephants when the dis,
lance from start to the pale Is only a few
hundred yards. So the labor of months was
wasted and whole herd went free. There.
fore there are now in those jungles three
dozen or more elephants who know the ees
.Iet Of the .eddah path.

Datto of Malabang Killed.

Friday night the datto of Malabang was
murdered by a Moro from Genassi ION the
lake.. 1t is supposed that the murder was
on account of the friendliness Of the datto
for Americans.
The followers of the dead datto pursued
the murderer and by Saturday night his
head decorated a Moro spear in front Of
the residence of the late datto.

MALABANG, Mindanao, F. l., Aug. 20, 1892.
This is not a very important point on the
map In fact, will search a long time
for it. 1t IS just spot away up in the
northeast corner of Illana bay, the great
bay south of Mindanao.
Malabang is Of Importance just now, for
it is the base of operations against the
hostile Moros of Lake LanaO.
From here two trails run to the lake, and.
following the course of one, the army is at
work building a wagon road from the sea to
the lake distance of twenty-one miles.
AS base Malabang IS not perfect. There
are wood, water and q good camp ground,
but no harbor. and all supplies are landed
on an unprotected beach. For days at a
time ne. hing can be landed, on account of
the heavy surf. There a few Moro
houses here. an old stone fort, built by
the Spaniards, and a great number of fine
springs. The springs unite and form
good sized river. The fort is on a great
rock, from the base of which the springs
flow. We have six companies of the 21th
Infantry here, along the road four COM
panies of the 18th Infantry, and at Camp
Vicais lake Lanao) four companies of the
9th Infantry, two troops of the 18th Cav
airy and mountain battery.

Grand Forks, Feb. PA. d. Moe, Of the
South ST. Paul Live Stock Reporter, has
purchased the Grand Forks Daily Plain
dealer of w. E. Mckenzie of Crookston
and p. c. Carruth Of this city. The Plain
dealer is the only democratic daily in the
state. MT. Moe, who takes possession of
the paper and plant some time next
month, has not signdfied what the politics
of the PAPER will be, under the new man
agement, but it is believed he will make
1t republican.
The Plaindealer is one of the Oldest pa
pers in the state. It was founded as a
weekly by George Fl. Walsh. At one time
w. J. Murphy, now of the Minneapolis
Tribune, owned the plant. He turned the
institution into a stock company and sold
1t at big price to Rev. Mr.. Mendenhall
who soon tired Of the business. Later on
George B. Winship of the Herald picked
it no. In 1892 the P1aindealer was made
democratic. Mckenzie and Carruth bought
the plant in SO and turned it into pay
ing property. IF the Plaindealer becomes
republican. North Dakota democrats will
be without an organ OF any Importance.

sailed from st. Thomas on Saturday last

This was the ana ouncenent made by
Secretary Cortelyou at $50 o'clock this
morning regarding the condition of the
son Of President Re csevelt. The night
had been .uneventful. From expressions
made by the school authorities and those
most interested in the case, it is believed
that the boys condition, while not re-
moved from the dangerous stage, has as
sumed a more favorable aspect. For the
first time in week, the weather changed
this morning, ana although the sun was
shining, there were signs of disagreeable
weather .~A

Mr.. Cortleyou said, very favorable, with
slight Improvement, and he added that the

The temperature, pulse and respiration

Mr. Cortelyou said also that the presi-

SAME CROWD?
Parallel Between Wall Street
Operations in St. Paul
and Burlington.

Special to The Journal.
New York, Feb 1.-THE transactions in
St. Paul yesterday continued large, but
within narrow limits. There is reason to
believe that stock is being steadily ac-
cumulatcd and taken out of the street
from time ITO time, though there is also
evidence that efforts are being exerted
to keep the stock in plentiful supply in
the loan crowd and prevent any scarcity
developing.
The comment on this is that it recalls
the tactics employed some time ago when
powerful banking interest was acquir-
ing large block of Burlington stock.
Many features of the trading in ST. Paul
were present in the trading in ;Burling-
ton at that time, and for this reason it
is believed that the same interests are
buying into st. Paul.
Flipped Coin for Stock.
The Evening World publishes story in
which it asserts that the secrets of the
Northern Pacific corner are laid bare. It
says the facts are obtained from affida-
Wits made by J. J. Hill, J. P. Morgan s
brokers and various persons connected
with the transaction. Hill tells how he
gave his mere word to Morgan not to
buy or sell Northern Pacific stock On
$2,0O0,0OO worth of stock s14,OOo,OO0 could
have been made, but the stock was not
sold because we would have sold out our
friends"
Brokers tell how they bought stock
which they knew could not be delivered,
loaned the unfortunate sellers the stock
to be delivered, then bought more of the
undelivered stock and finally called in
their loans and forced settlement. One
broker tells of Tipping coin for $35, 600.

. TAWNEY IN A TANGLE
Made a Little Miscue That Required
Time to Rectify.

Washington, Feb. 12.-The voting ON
amendments to the oleomargarin bill in
the house yesterday Indicated a consider
able change of sentiment since last con-
gress, when the bill had 106 majority, and
that the opposition to the measure has
gained strength.
Mr. Burleson (TeXas) created merri-
ment by. offering a substitute for section
3, in the language of the section, to inn
pose tax of 10 cents a pound on manu-
featured sold in imitation of the natural
ice,@ except when sold in blocks of one and
two pounds and stamped Counterfeit
ice.' Mr.. Burleson declared that his sub
stitute showed the absurdity and injustice
Of the selfish designing and ambitious
statesmen from Minnesota
When the committee rose Mr.. TawneY
(rep., MIMI demanded separate vote
on the amendment relating to reno
waited butter, but he described tho
amendment by the wrong number and
discovered his error only after that
amendment, with others of a minor
character, had been adopted in gross.
The exposure Of the mistake tick1ed the
enemies of the bill, but Mr. Tawney pro-
ceeded to retrace the parliamentary trail
by moving a reconsideration of the vote
It took some time to straighten out the
tangle, but this was accomplished finally,
and with this amendment pending the
house adjourned.

Lord Dufferin never wholly recovered

The papers, comment upon Lord Duff
