THE ELEPHANTS FRIEND.

Prof. John III. Andrews, the zoologist
with the Great Foto shows, gives a most
interesting lecture on the habits and
characteristics of the many rare speci-
mems which are carried with the show
Two lion cubs a few months old and
couple of one-year-oid Bengal tigers are
features of the menagerie exhibit. He
tie Is many interesting stories of circus
life:
'One day the circus and menagerie had
come to town in the early morning and
the men set up the tent in big vacant
lot and were at work getting things
ready for the afternoon performance.
good many men and boys, and some little
girls, too, were in the lot nearly all fore
noon. watching what was going on, but
they were particularly interested in an
elephant and a bear that were chained
each to a stake outside the tent and not
very far apart. While they stood about
looking at the beast girl or years of
age came out of the tent and. approach
ing the elephant, began to play with him.
She took a whisp of straw out to him,
and when he thrust his trunk toward 1t
she would jerk it away and jump back
out OF his reach.
Then she would run all around him
and he would touch her with his trunk in
a gentle way, as If he enjoyed the sport
as much as she did. People expected to
see the little girl killed. but they found
out she was the daughter of one of the
managers. who allowed her to play with
the elephants whenever she pleased.
Meanwhile. the big back bear was
watching them. and soon began to show
signs of not liking the play. He wac evil
dently in a bad humor, but the girl was
so full of her fun with her friend. the
elephant. that she paid no attention to
the bear.
Presently, in jumping back to get out
OF the way OF the elephants trunk, she
got within reach of the bear. and he
seized her with his paw and would no
doubt have killed her, but the elephant
saw him and struck him blow with his
trunk that laid him on the ground Sc
verely injured.
'Then there was great excitement; men
yelled and boys and girls screamed. and
a dozen circus men came running to see
what was the matter. They found the
little girl only slightly hurt, while the old
elephant rocked himself to and fro In un-
mistakable delight over what he had
DONE"

Let Us Have Peace

We had expected a lively campaign
this year. but we We're utterly unpre.
Spared for the spirit Of bitterness that has
developed In all parts of the State. Per-
fsonal friends have fallen out with one
another. and in some cases there have
been personal difficulties between men
on different sides of the contest All
sorts of absurd stories have been nut into
circulation, in some cases affecting the
honor OF honorable men and honorable
newspapers. Motives have been i'm
4 peached. and insinuations of bribery have
been made. One would suppose TINT the
fate of Virginia depended upon the Is
sues of this contest.
In point of fact, 1t is a simple contest
within the Democratic party, between
candidates for Democratic honors. There
Is no occasion for this intense bitter
ness, and its manifestation is greatly
TO be dcplored. The regular election is
to be held later on. and Democrats are
playing into the hands OF tho Republi-
cans. Let us keep this fact well in
mind. We are all going into the prl-
mary and we arr going to abide by the
decision OF the majority. After the nomi-
nations have been made loyal Demo-
Gratis must get together and work to-
se,her and vote together for the success
Of the Democratic ticket. and We should
not in the meantime make campaign
material for the Republicans,
Why all this excitement, why all this
fccling2 We don't blame the candidates
for being agitated, for they have great
Interests At stake. But there is no occ.a-
sion for the people to go into Mysteries
and throw fits. Let us have peace; and
let brothcrly love continue.

Government Salaries.

s The resignation Of Engineer Wallace, OF
the Panama Canal force, draws attention
to the fact that many. OF the most useful
Of the governments employees arc being
enticed out Of the service by the cor
porat lions. 1t is said that corporations
are without soul, but they arc not with
out Intellect and keen perception they
know a valuable man when they see him.
and they are always ready to pay what
his services are WORTH no matter VIVA
the price may be. There are no hard and
fast rules: there are no fixed salaries. The
salary does not attach to the place, tbut
TO the man.
1t is not so with the government. The
government pays Cabinet officer SS,ooO
a year, an amount that does not pay the
R expenses Of the incumbent, and 1t Is said
that Mr.. Roots income from his law pruc-
tice was 100000 per annum; yet Mr.. Root
wos called upon to accept the 5000 place.
He accepted, but, clearly. not because Of
the pecuniary inducement 1t may be ar
quad that 1t is better to have men work
for the government from patriotic mo-
lives; but that Is not always a sufficient
inducemcnt to men who are dependent
on their exertlons for livelihood. Again
II happens In the great majority Of cases
that the relationship between the govern
ment and It's employees Is purely re-
latIonship Of business, and nothing but
business considerations weigh. In fine. tho
government must pay tho market price
for labor, and If 1t expects ITO retain
tho services Of the best men It must pay
ms good wages as the corporations pay.
In time Of war, the government may
count upon the volunteer services Of its
best men. without regard to price. and
emergencies arise in, time of peace when
patriotic men arc willing to make any
reasonable sacrifice to save their coun-
try. But In the transactions of business
the government must adopt and practice
business rules. But 1t Is very hard under
our red tape system for the government
to do this, and that is why 1t is so hard
for the government to carry on business
enterprises successfully.

High School Building in Sight.

The Finance Committee has adopted
without a dissenting vote the report of
the High School Committee of the Coun-
Gil and the committee Of the Board OF
School Trustees which latter committees
llnve long had under consideration the
question Of selecting a lot for the High
School building and the adoption of IA
plan. All tho members Of all tho COM
mittccs have given this subject a thor
ough investigation and have unanimously
agreed upon a site and upon Il plan, The
question will now soon 10 before the
Council and the Board Of Aldermen, and
The Timcs-D Dispatch homes and earnestly
recommends that prompt action be taken.
We have had no preference Of sites or
of plans. We have simply asked that
the best site and the best plans be select
cd, and VIC are satisfied that the Joint
committees have done the very best that
could be done under the circumstances,
and have reached judiclous conclusions,
If the Council and Board of Aldermen
Will adopt the report and make the neccs-
sary appropriation the work will begin at

cluslon.

In rushing such measures through. We
ars going to erect Il building to serve the
purpose OF the public school system for
many years to come, and The Times-Dls-

ject should have the most thorough in
vestigation and elaboration; but we now
