ELEPHANT HUNTERS.
Ivory Diggers Assist Them in Finding
 Tusks.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 What a vast number of objects are made of ivory. Knife handles sometimes. and paper citters and all sorts of useful and ornamental objects, carved wood Of all kinds, stamp boxes, pen holders. rare little carved statuettes. Even thrones have been made of ivory. If the elephant had teeth and tusks enough. 1t would be hard to say what people would not man ufaeture out of this beautiful material. In Russia floors of the state apartments in the palaces are inlaid with ivory and one African sultan has surrounded his straw matched palace with a fence of elephants tusks, a barricade far more valuable and curious than beautiful.
 That the elephants annually slain in Africa and India could furnish half the livery used in one year, those who are ac- auainted with elephant hunting as well as with the quantity of ivory used annually in Europe. America and Asia knew very well to be impossible. The ivory dggers therefore, have to assist the elephant hum ters.
 With the same zeal with which the pe- troleum borers in America seek to dis cover a new oil well do the ivory diggers on the Arctic coasts search for mann moths tusks. Every spring, when the ice begins to thaw, the marshy land of east ern Siberia reveals new mines of fossil ivory The traders are very jealous, and allow no one else to work these mines on the coasts and islands under their con- trol. They make every effort to send at least 10000 pounds of fossil ivory a year

A Portable Telephone.

From the New York Commercial
 The latest Swedish invention that ia being discussed is a portable telephone The specimens that have been sent abroad have elicited unstinted praise from Austrian, Russian, Greek and Tur. kish experts, who have tested them and while large demands and inquiries fos the new phones have come from France Germany, Italy, Spain. Portugal and the United States. those from Great Britain have been even more noticeable.
 Within the cylinder of the telephone is small, dry cell. the whole apparatus including both receiver and mouthpiece) being small enough to go in the pocket. With each instrument is a coil of thin copper wire. and it is reckoned that soldier could easily carry 13,0O0 feet of this wire with him.
 The uses suggested for the portable tell ephone are innumerable military con- alterations being kept specially to the front. Outposts, it Is declared, could by it's aid keep in constant communication with the main force, and it is pointed out that 1t would furnish valuable means of keeping in touch with headquarters for police and fire brigads. For use be- tween railway coaches on a moving train, for engineer at work underground or on great public works, for steamers, for cyclists and in many other fields 1t would be most desirable.

westward along the great caravan road.

westward along the great caravan road
 It Is a strange sight to see an ivory oarivan as it silently hurries onward through the desolate plains in the ex- treme north. The closely muffied up fig ures. their faces hidden balanced on lofty saddles. journey on and on by the strange light of the Aurora Borealis through the long nights. sometimes across steppes so swampy in summer that they are scarcely passable. Nothing seems to arouse these quaint figures from their stold apathy The snowstorm does not affect them, nor does the biting cold terrify them Yet the danger to the caravan from these two causes is very great.
 When next you see a piece of ivory, think how many days of toll and nights of bitter hardship the ivory caravan en- dures in order to transport the smooth, white material to civilization.
