ELEPHANTS IN BURMA.
The Great Beasts Sometimes Work
without Immediate Oversight.


without Immediate Oversight.
In Burma the animal generally used
in numbering operations is the ele-
plant. While my lord the elephant"
solves in n unique way the tr2nsporta-
ton problem-always vexatious one
in numbering operations-he does more
than that. The stolid and slow moving
OK can haul load from one place to
another. but the load has to be made
ready for him in the first place, and
after it has arrived at its destination II
has to be unloaded. The elephant
takes care of all these operations. NOT
only he is draft animal, but in
some instances, at word from his
driver, he picks up 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 I'M
possible by hand labor, and with less
expenditure of time than would be re-
quired by steam crane.
In most cases an elephant driver, or
mahout, is required for each elephant,
but human labor is so cheap as not 10
be a factor in the expense. The ele-
plant furnishes the labor which is paid
for, and the driver is looked upon as
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 lumber
ing operations the elephants are SEEM
ingly told" what they are to do in the
morning, and in some degree left to
carry on the work during the day ac-
cording to their own devices. Very re-
markable are the stories told Of their
sagacity. One Of these stories, vouched
for as true, concerns numbering, and
tells of an elephant that was about TO
pick up a log just as the great gong
which signaled 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 requisitioned, but the two together
failed to make any Roadway with the
heavy timber, and the attempt was
given up. In the morning the first ele-
plant went Immediately to the timber,
lifted it with apparent ease, and car
ried it to the required resting place

Influences All Mankind.

The Christ influences all men. He is
not a character Of one country, as Mo-

is coextensive with humanity and CO.

Not Meant For an Ornament.
Truth is powerless unless it gets into
the heart. Every surrender Of a prin-
ciple or virtue lessons the love and de-
sire for that principle or virtue. Truth
was never meant for an ornament. 1t
was given to be lived. If you will not
do the truth you hear on Sunday, it
will say goodby to you before the COM

The Real Need Of Mankind.
The want, the real want Of man is
not riches, but righteousness; not

is met and answered only in the life
the life eternal, the life abundant
found in the source to which the Mas

INLAND WATER ROUTE.
Proposed Extension From Nprfolk to
Beaufort inlet

Lieutenant Colonel Allen and Lieutenant
Colonel Quinn of the Engineer Corps of the
army, have made their report concerning
the proposition for an inland water route
between Norfolk, Va, and Beaufort inlet
N. c. The report is made in pursuance Of
an act of Congress asking for estimates Of
the cost of the proposed route.
While the report has not been made pub
lie, 1t is said that the officers say that to
secure a 16-foot channel from Norfolk to
Beaufort inlet will involve an expenditure
of at least SIS. 600. To complete the pro-
ject to Savannah as projected will probably
cost as much more.
By the construction of the 18-foot channel
along the line many coastwise vessels
would be able to take advantage of the way
and avoid weather Instructions now Of
fered in open sea along the coast, which
makes trips dangerous
The War and Navy Dauartments favor
the proposition as being advantageous to
the government in that in times OF war the
proposed route would enable gunboats and
torpedo craft OF light displacement to avoid
the exposed waters Of the coast.
