ELEPHANTS TOOTH DRAWN.
Mules Are Hooked On and Brazil Goes
 Back to Her Car.

Lexington dKy) Correspondence to the
 New York Press.
 Two mules did some effective dentis- try in the mouth of Brazil, an elephant, on the railroad line to Columbus, four miles from this city. this morning. The mules were called in after a regular qualified dentist, assisted by veter- marian and two circus hands had sig nally failed to relieve the elephant of a severe attack of toothache.
 Brazil stands 12 feet high, and is the prize pachyderm of circus. The show was on the way from this city to Columbus, when Brazil began to thrash around her car. One side of the car was shattered before the fury of the elephant was discovered and the train brought to standstill.
 A diagnosis was quickly and easily made When the keeper approached Brazil threw up her trunk and opened her mouth, and the man, slipping his head into the opening saw big cav ity in a tooth. Brazil was roped and

COUNT BoNl DE cAsrELLANE.
He Reappears In Society, the cayest
 of the Gay.

Paris Cable to the New York World.
 Count Boni de Castellane made an almost spectacular re-entree into so- ciety at the Autro- Hungarian Ambas- sadors garden party this week. Dressed in the height of fashion, the count moved superbly through tho crowd that roamed the magnificent gardens. a costly orchid for his but | tonniere.
 Others dandies, envious, reported that his black silk cravat was tied under the personal supervision of his friend and sartorial mentor, Lebargy, the exquisite.
 Count Boni, the gayest of the gay. consistently approached every one of his former friends. They manifested a disposition not to see him. but he seemed to win back every one by the charm of his smile and his engaging manners.
 Hope of being reelected to the Chamber of Deputies at the second polling in the Basses Apes district inspires Boni. Well informed politi- clans believe that much of the opposi- tion de Castellane incurred at the last election will vanish under the influ- chCsS WHICH lHe ihoue9 poWSi VII bring to help him.
 He has promised 10 be good as gold" to his political enemies until after the election. If he is chosen he will remain silent. If he is defeated:
 q will bring into daylight certain begging Aetters written when money stood in my name; letters none too delicate, and not from political non entities. I assure you Count Boni has threatened to his friends.
 Meantime, the counts counsel, Mai Ire Bonnet, shows a disposition to pro- tract the divorce proceedings. Maitre Cruppi, the American countess adyo- cate. appeared in court this week and asked that Bonnet be required to show cause why there should be any further delay
 Matre Bonnet must answer to court next Wednesday,

Dancing Girls for Birthday celebra- Tlons-Few Theatres-Kite Flying.

From the Hindusian Review.
 Amusement in the capital of oudh is not particularly strenuous. For an east ern crowd the bazaar Is the inevitable center of attraction. "a free lounging place or club where you may meet your fellows and exchange any ideas you may have and any compliments you may think fit to bestow." Bazaar gossip takes the place of newspapers and if there are no billiard saloons at Lucknow, 'at any shop you are allowed to play skittles with your neghbor's character"
 There are two or three theatres in Luck now which attempt to give performances in accord with western traditions. The dresses. however, are distinctly ineongru- ous, as they are always the same for similar characters For example the king wears the same robes and the same crown, whether he takes the part of King Lear sr of King Harishchandra, or that of the

Some fine specimens Of Chinese
sounding stones have been de-
scribed by a late visitor at Ch'ufu,
the birthplace and burial place Of
Confucius. An incense dish of
stone rang with the bell-like tone
Of bronze on being struck with q
stick, two pillars gave out a music
al note on being struck at any
point, and a large tablet-three
by five feet in area and six inches
thick-emitted a note varying
with the point struck. These
"stone gongs" are found through
out the country, having been
known for centuries. The material
is a grayish oolitic limestone, and
It is said to come only from occa-
sional veins at quarry a few

WAS A LIVELY YOUNG TOWN
Rapid Growth Of Antler Not Exactly
Echoed by Freight Car Depot
Big Wheat Yield.

The town has grown faster
than the railroad can keep pace
with 1t, and the station is not yet
built, says Ralph d. Paine, in the
Outing Magazine. On a siding
stands boxcar, with a flight Of
wooden steps leading up to its
side door and a stovepipe poked
through the roof. An alert and
capable young woman reigns
within as station and express
agent and telegraph operator.
She has even fenced off one cor
ner Of the car, near the stove, as
a waiting room" 1t is such an in
significant looking makeshift of
a station and the town is so in
credibly new that the information
she bestows in reply to your ques-
tion is staggering.
"In the first two weeks the sta.
tion was opened the freight re.
ceipts at Antler were $4,000.
This is big, If you happen to know
that $500 worth of business
month justified the company in
building a station and putting in
salaried agent. The country
looks kind of empty to a stranger.
don't it? There doesn't look to
be much Of anything besides Ant.
Ter on this part of the map. And
Antier isn't what you would call
a metropolis back east in Mich.
igan, where ! was raised. But this
Ettle brand-new town will ship
out 100000 bushels Of wheat
next fall. That means nearly
100000 in cash coming in to these
farmers around here, and most
Of it spent right here In Antler.
The railroad viii get about $780,.
600 In freight receipts from the
wheat that is hauled from thenew
elevators at Antler. And that
pays for a good many miles OF
track over this fat country. Oh,
we are doing pretty well, thanh
you."

SEES JOY IN EXPLORATION
Scientist Who WoaId Fathom Mys-
teries Of Nature Takes Pleasure
IN Possible Discoveries.

The real exploration of the
world has 10 be done. and endless
y done over, by men who 90 to its
fields Of land and sea for very def
mite purposes ~ 10 satisfy the
needs Of the learning of their time,
SAYS n. 5. shaler, in Allan
tic. Only the mere fringes Of this
eadeav0r will be devoted to climb
ing peaks or winning a few miles
nearer 10 a mere geographical
definition such as the north or
south pole. The cause Of true ex-
pIOratiOn will be vastly advanced
when some real observer with the
spirit Of the naturalist finds him
self within, say, 50 miles Of the
poles with a sea beneath him that
BY sOundings proves that there il
no land polewards, who then delib-
erately gives up the satisfaction
Of putting his feet a little nearer
to that field in which the wobbly
axis Of the earth ends, in order
that he may save time and force
for better uses. That man will
stand for the new type of explorer
who represents tho motive Of our
time as the captains Of the Span
lsh f0rays in the new world repre-.
sented the creed and brutal form
Of the impulse 400 years ago. We
are to glance at those fields that /
await the modern explorer, and /
are to give him the same inspira.
tion that the men Of old won when |
they knew they "were the first that |
ever burst into the silent sea-"
There is, it is true, a certain mere |
physical delight in being thus won
In mere seeming, for it is rarely /
We are sure that we are the first /
In the seeming unknown But this /
delight is somewhat childish; it is
like that Of the big game hunter
who has the satisfaction that in |
killing an elephant he has done /
what no one else has done, or will I
do, for that particular beast. Most
newly-discoyered seas have been l
plowed by unknown keels and
there are few square miles Of land I
that have not been trOdden by

ments Of the exploring motive
