The Jews have an old tradition that when

And God from His work was resting, He
called to Him. one by OneS
The shining troops of the angels, and
showing the wonder wrought
The Master asked of His servants what
they of the vision thought.
Then one white angel, dreaming DER the
marvel before him spread,
Bent low in humble obeisance, lifted his
voice, and said:
Zone, thing only is lacking-praise from
the newborn tongue,
The sound Of a hallelujah by the great
creation sung"
So God created music-the voices of land
and sea.
And the song of the stars revolving in
one vast harmony.
Out of the deep uprising, out from the
ether sent.
The song of the destined ages thrilled
through the armament.
So the rivers among the valleys. the
murmur of wind-swept hill.
The seas and the bird-thrilled Woodlan ds
utter their voices still:
Songs Of stars and of waters, echoes OF
vale and shore
The voice of primeval nature praisins
Him evermore.
And the Instruments men have fashioned
since time and the world were

With the human voice translating the

TIRED OF ELEPHANT
HOTEL MAN FOUND HE HAD
MADE BAD BARGAIN.
Didn't Take Him Long to Realize the
Literal Truth Of an Old sayinq-His
Ftna! Note Short and Very Much
to the Point.

The trite old saying, "You have an
elephant on your hands," found verifi-
cation in Washington, says the Wash
ington Star, several years ago, ac-
cord!ng to a retired man about town,
who has been acquainted with the
doings here since Washington was a
town OF many building lots but few
buildings, away back in the misty
past. The principal in the episode was
"a man who conducted a second-rate
hotel in this city.
1t appears that a circus company
became stranded here and was forced
to disband because of a financial COL
lapse. The butchers, bakers and 9TH
ers to whom the circus managers
owed money sued out writs and had
the constables seize whatever of the
circus property they could get their
hands on to liquidate in part their
debts.
A meat dealer got lot of costumes
one hotel man seized some pet ami
mails and birds, and so on. The prin-
cipal of this story, however, being
good-natured and somewhat optimis-
tic, did not act as quickly as the 9TH
ers, and when he finally sued out his
writ of attachment he found that the
only piece of property he could seize
was a big elephant, which had been
advertised as "the great white sacred
elephant Of SIAM" BY a liberal use
Of paint the animals hide had been
made dusty white
After the constable had seized the
sacred brute to liquidate board bill
of about $50 at the plaintiffs hotel, he
was instructed by the hotel man to
find a boarding place for the colossal
creature until he could arrange to
sell it. That was before the days of
the Washington Zoo. The law officer
placed the elephant as a boarder at a
livery stable on Sixth street and the
hotel man opened up correspondence
to bring about it's sale.
Ten days rolled around and no sale
had been made. On the eleventh day
the livery stable keeper sent an indig-
nant note to the hotel man. 1t ran
something like this:
you must take that Internal India
rubber brute away from my stables
at once. He has already devoured all
my bales of hay that l had stored
away for my winter supply, and he
sides occupying one-quarter of my es-
Enlistment, he has broken down par
titions and walls and done other dam
age. Your bill to me is already over
$3.50, and you have got a white ele-
plant on your hands, sure enough.
Take him away from my place and do
it quick"
The hotel man found he could not
sell the animal at any price, and he,
too, realized that he, indeed, had an
elephant on his hands in more ways
than one. He finally wired the former
manager of the circus to come to
Washington and get "the sacred
thing" and he would call the board
bill square. Then he wrote this to
the livery stable man:
II have notified the owner Of the
brute to come and get him forthwith
Give him three days grace and make
him pay for the animals board and
lodgings. II he does not do so, take
the blanked mountain of flesh out on
some lot and knock him in the head"
