melted down like that" said another.
Then another member of the club. well
up in the ancient history of the club
house, recalled the fact that a burglar
had broken into the buffet a year or more
ago and had tapped the till, stealing a
small amount of money.
Thieves might break open the doors
and steal the elk. We will have TO do
something about it,
A consultation of war was held. in
which Tom Homer. Tom" Pitt, Bert"
Raybould. George Silks, c. NJ Freed and
a dozen others participated.
Lets put him in the safe" suggested
Homer
The big doors of the safe were opened.
but the elk refused to enter. The strong
box was not large enough TO accommo-
date his lordship.
Mr.. Homer then made a discovery.
While examining the elk he found that
the antiers could be detached. by UNI
screwing them from the head, Mr.. Ho-
mer at once deputiZed himself as butcher
extraordinary" and detached the antlers
and other members of the eik's body, in
a scientific manner Still the animal re-
fused TO enter the dark and musty con-
fines of the safe.
Then Mr.. Homer in desperation put the
fragments of elk together again. like
Humpty-Dumpty tried. but failed to do
completed. marched to Main and First
South streets, to his office with a body
guard of a dozen OF the Old squad, and
locked the elk up in the record vault.
1t is thought that il will be necessary to
have safe built especially for the silver
elk in order that it may be kept from
burglars.

SILVER ELK WON At DENVER PROVES
WHITE ELEPHANT TO THE WINNERS
When is an elk an elephant?

When is an elk an elephant9
When it is silver elk and therefore
q white elephant on the hands of the
owners
The officers of the local lodge Of Elks
have a white elephant on their hands
in the handsome silver elk won by the
lodge at the recent grand lodge meeting
held at Denver. The elk was given as
prize to the local lodge for having the
greatest number of women from the city
in attendance at the convention.
The prize is valued at $1,000 and If the
bullion were melted down, IL would be
worth in the lump not a penny less than
$3.50. When the elk was taken from the
window of local jeweler last Wednesday
night and placed in the station of honor
at the clubhouse, the members were jubi-
liant over their prize. Every one admired
the wonderful workmanship of the stat
uette, and every one congratulated every
one else on the victory the lodge had
earned.
Then the time arrived to close the club
house. The question as to what should
be done with the silver elk was raised.
Leave it here" said one; lit will be all
right. No one would swipe it"
An cutlery was raised
What? Leave the silver elk in this
