OF course, he wouldn't cut Duke into

he won't turn Duke over TO any one who
can't keep him In comfort.
Besides, it's no easy thing even 10 give
an elephant away. He has 10 be moved
from his temporary clearinghouse in

viii be necessary for two men 10 come
with him. and the men viii have 10 eat.
All this being considered. It can he
readily seen that it requires manage
ment to give the animal away.
one woman living in Lancaster wrote
yesterday that she would take Duke and
keep him for life.
Il viii not take advantage of her Of
fer" said Hope. An elephant lives from
two TO three hundred years. and the
good woman's descendants might object
IL would be unfair 10 burden them with
such a legacy unless they keep a feed

Eleanor F. Vernon. of Camden. sent
the following appeal for the elephant;
Il have two Angor,. cats and a collie.
and would like 10 have an elephant to
complete the list. I live near a feed
store. and it would be easy 20 procure
food. I could keep him IN the barn at

cause.
The weather has been ideal for the
fish market While the weather is
warm, the fish are plentiful, but as
soon as the water freezes the end Of
the fish season is marked. Until yes
terday the sale of the shipped fish
was chronicled in local markets as a
record-bTeaker. and the slump yester-
day was surprise 10 everybody.
Fifty Per Cent Higher
The over-stocked benches in the mar
kets are mute testimony TO the havoc
wrought by the sudden ascent Of prices.
The demand for other fish was light
in both the retail and the wholesale
stands Every customer who approach
ed the fish stands was loaded for shad.
and when they found that there was
little doing In the coveted delicacy, they
turned away
Little else was even asked for AT the
stands except shad. 1t was there in
abundance. but out of their reach.
It IS thought that the low prices in
New York created such demand for
the fish there that there was little left
u be shipped 10 the local markets.
hence the high prices demanded for
what there was.
Washingtonians will not nave to wait
long for shad. for March 10 marks the
invasion Of the adjacent waters by the
hosts of shad and herring from the
South.
