Al Apimal Story Fer
Little Folks
At THE
Barnyard Fowls Picnic

The Widow Duck accepted the invi-
tation of Mr.. Rooster to 60 with him to
the annual picnic Of the barnyard
fowls, and when the day arrived they
strutted down the road to the picnic
grounds and made a very striking ap-
pearance indeed. The widow had on
her bonnet dyed black, with the
strings tied in a graceful bow at her
throat and the ends dangling down in
front. Mr.. Rooster wore the very latest
style Of clothes and high silk hat and
carried cane. They were much ad-
nlired and felt quite proud Of them
selves.
But while they were all gathered
about the long table covers spread on
the grass and eating the good things
there the widow turned to the Brahma
hen next to her and asked, "Will you
pass me an oyster sandwich"
The Brahma hen was 80 much inter-
ested in talking to the Cochin China

pullet that she did not hear the re-
quest, so the widow decided to help
herself to the sandwich. She leaned
over to get 1t. The ends Of her bon
net strings dipped into the red lemon
ade and Immediately the black dye be-
gan to come off and discolor the drink.
Mr.. Rooster leaned over to see what
was the matter. and his high hat fell
into the butter. He reached for his
head covering and one foot slipped in
to the gooseberry pie and he tumbled
forward over the potato salad.
The widow caught him by the coat
tails to pull him out Of the mess. and
in doing so upset the milk pitcher over
herself and got the red pepper In her
eyes.
When order was finally restored Mr..
Rooster and the widow were the most
horrible looking objects that ever at

key gobblers could not control them

ELEPHANTS IN BURMAH.
The Great Beasts Sometimes Work
Without Immediate Oversight.

nc oTodG poaSIS oomoklnoo "oTH
Without Immediate Oversight.
America presents varied scenes and
contrasting methods in its numbering
industries, and while modern invention
makes use of endless cables and i'm
proved log tramways, there can be
found in Identical camps with these
the most primitive power Of skids and
steers. Even more than most persons
realize, the use Of these slow animals Is
still adhered to, and the yoke Of oxen
is in requisition from the Maine woods
to the redwood forests of California.
The sole use of the OK in a lumber
animal.
In Burmah the animal generally used
in numbering operations Is the ele-
phant. While my lord the elephant"
solves in a unique way the transporta-
ton problem-always a vexatious one
in numbering operations-he does more
than that. The stolid and slow NOV
ing OK can haul n load from one place
to another but the load has to be made
ready for him in the first place, and
after 1t has arrived at its destination
II has to be unloaded. The elephant
takes care Of all these operations. Not
only is he a draught animal, but in
some instances at word from his
driver, he picks up a timber, carries 1t
to the designated point, and then not
only deposits it where it belongs, but
does so with precision and comparative
ease, accomplishing result almost
impossible by hand labor, and with
less expenditure Of time than would be
required by steam crane.
In most cases an elephant driver, or
mahout, Is required for each elephant,
but human labor Is so cheap as not to
be factor in the expense. The ele-
phant furnishes the labor which is paid
for, and the driver Is looked upon as
a necessary, though not altogether de-
sirable, concomitant, as the native
helper Is not so much to be relied upon
as his big charge. Opium and the
strong brews Of native roots work on
human frailty, but the elephant has
no desire for these. In many big lum-
bering operations the elephants are
seemingly told" what they are to do
in the morning, and in some degree
left to carry on the work during the
day according to their own devices.
Very remarkable are the stories told of
their sagacity. One Of these stories,
vouched for as true, concerns lumber
ing, and tells Of an elephant that was
about to pick up a log just as the
great gong which signalled the close
Of the days work was sounded. To
the surprise Of the mahout, the log,
only little larger than others which
had been carried, proved too heavy
for the elephant to lift from the
ground. Another elephant was requi-
sitioned, but the two together failed to
make any headway with the heavy
timber, and the attempt was given up.
In the morning the first elephant went
Immediately to the timber, lifted 1t
with apparent ease, and carried it to
the required resting place.-Forestry

THE LOSSES OF HORSES IN WAR;
Deaths due to wounds received in bat
tie constitute but an insignificant part
Of the losses Of cavalry horses In war.
1t was only after a war experience Of
two years that cavalry bureau was
established in 1863. This resulted in
economy and increased efficiency, for
an enormous number of horses, tempo
rarily disabled through excessive
marching and lack Of forage, were
turned in at the general depots and
recuperated sufficiently to be again
issued. The number turned In was but
a fraction Of the whole number issued,
owing to the difficulty Of returning
worn-out horses from distant and iso-
lated points.
Some idea of the dimensions Of the
remount business may be had from
the statement that 1878 horses were
purchased during the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1864. During the first
eight months Of that year the cavalry
Of the Army Of the Potomac was sup
piled with two complete remounts,
which required 100000 horses. The to-
tai number of mules and horses re-
quired to keep up the supply for all
the armies was 500 each day, and the
data collected showed that for every
two men Of the whole force employed
one animal was required in the ranks
or trains. The recent experience Of
the British army in South Africa in
dicates that the loss of animals in the
civil war was not exceptional and that
whenever campaigns are undertaken In
a sparsely settled country history will

Wa. sIiahtIy Absent. Minded.


The following story is told OF
downtown merchant who died recent
ly, relative putting it in these words:
"Mr. - was slightly absent-nind-
ed. One day, on arriving home, he dis
covered that his pocket had been
picked, his gold watch and chain hav-
ing disappeared. An advertisement or
fering a reward for the return of the
articles and no questions asked was
inserted in the daily papers, and few
days after addressed stranger rang
the bell at Mr.. - house. On being
ushered in he produced the missing
watch and chain and received the re-
ward for their return. Becoming
somewhat interested, Mr.. - asked
the stranger how he had been so sue
cessful in abstracting the timepiece
without his being aware Of 1t.
why, that's easy enough said the
well dressed man. Just put 1t on as
you had 1t that night, and TIL show
you."
Without waiting to be coaxed, Mr..
- adjusted the watch and chain to
his vest. The slick stranger immedi-
ately proceeded to re-enact the pocket
picking act, and In less than 1t takes
to tell it, had the jewelry again In his
possession.
That's certainly remarkable ejac-
ulated Mr.. -, I'll be careful In the
future
without further parley the stranger
was ushered to the door, and took his
departure, no attempt being made to
restrain him. The merchant, who
seemed overjoyed to have the watch,
which was an heirloom, once again IN
his possession, called the members Of
his family together to tell them Of his
luck
"Well,' remarked one. where is the
watch?"
"'Why, here replied Mr.. -, un-
buttoning his coat. To his amazement
he suddenly remembered that the slick
looking stranger had failed to return
the watch and chain, and he, In his
eagerness to see how the trick had
been done, had allowed the rascal to
depart with both the reward and the
heirloom York Evening Post.
