ACCEPTS CHALLENGE.
Elephant Charges Trolley Car-Con.
ductOr Retreats.

A panic was caused not long ago at
Neuilly by the escape of three ele-
plants from place of amusement at
the entrance of Paris.
In the Avenue de Neuilly one of the
beasts prepared to meet in battle an
advancing electric tramway car, the
conductor footing off the drivers horn
being evidently taken as challenge.
The conductor, however, wisely de-
termined to retire, and run his car
backward to the river.
The elephants then uprooted a cou-
pie Of trees and playfully threw them
across the roadway. Then discovering
large assortment of melons in front
of a grocer's shop, which was quickly
deserted by the owner and his assist
ant, they proceeded to devour 20 or
30 of the melons with the greatest
gusto.
Finally the beasts were captured in
the passageway of house in the Rue
Montrosier, and were led quietly back
to their stables by their keeper.

Boyer celebrated the day when, Is
years ago, he ran the first electric
railroad in the world. 1t was in the
year 1881 that Herr Werner Won Sic

first electric road from the Anhalt
railway station to Lichterfelde. Herr
Boyer was the first man in charge of
the new conveyance. uniting in his
person the function of motorman and
conductor. He afterwards rose grad
ually to the post of chief inspector Of
the now enormously increased cleo
trio railway system of that part of

For Lean or For Fat.

Will you take this woman for lean
or for fat?" is an insert that threatens
to be placed in the marriage ritual If
the present peculiar divorce grind con
tinues, says an eastern paper. Obesity
as cause for divorce has taken its
place in the courts in New York. Just
because Mrs. Link was too fat her
husband applied for a divorce. Mrs.
Link declined to contest the suit and
the couple unlinked The husband mar
ried the woman when she tipped the
beam at 100 pounds. She now weighs
225 In her stocking feet. Link claims
that when he asked the sylph like
creature to step into his tepee he didn't
for a minute think she would crowd
him out. He said he got more Aan he
had bargained for and it took all his
beer money to buy her anti-fat but
without result.

Wife Of Sheriff Lee Of Ward County
Has An Experience"

Bowbells Tribune: Sheriff ]. ].
Lee arrived here from Minot last Sun
day afternoon. Mrs. Lee having ac-
companied him as far as CarpiO,
where she left the train and drove
out ten miles east OF that place to
visit a sister. Shortly before leav-
ing Minot, the sheriff called at one
of the drug stores in the city and
ordered a prescription compounded
for Mrs. Lee, and little later again
called at the store and was given a
small vial supposed to have been put
up in accord with the formula he left
there. When the sheriff arrived here
imagine his surprise on finding mes
sage awaiting him from the Minot
druggist in which 1t was stated that
the wrong bottle had been given him
for Mrs. Lee. and cautioning him
against having her use it. Immediate
ly the conclusion was jumped at that
the drug given him by mistake might
be deadly poison, and as a natural con-
sequence the sheriff was almost be-
side himself for way to get back to
Carpio and out to where his wife had
gone before she should have taken
dose Of the dreaded stuff. The Burger
& Ingram auto was brought in requisi-
ton. however. Mr.. Burger being call

last stretch toward the stopping
place of Mrs. Lee was covered at a
forty-mile-an-hour gait. the sheriff
arriving at his destination shortly after
midnight, only to find that his wife
had taken a dose of the dreaded drug
some five hours previous to his ar
rival. but the medicine proved to be
harmless. the lady having exper-
fenced no bad results. 1t turned out
that the Minot druggist had compound
ed several prescriptions and the bottles
containing the drugs were placed on a
shelf behind the counter until called
for. Sheriff Lee was the first to call
and the druggist in his hurry simply
handed him the wrong bottle. The
stuff, as stated proved quite harmless.
Mrs. Lee was found to be very much
alive but the popular sheriff is not
likely to soon forget the anxiety of
those terrible hours between the re-
ception of the message from Minot and
arrival at the home of his sister-in-
law

The All.OYer Peek.a.Boo.

The smartly gowned woman at At
lantic seems to be able to look at once
cooler, fresher and more chic, besides
being fashionably gownei, than her
contemporaries at any other shore
place. Short skirts have much to do
with the enviable result. The Atlantic
City girl has discovered the limit of
possibilities in the skirt of ankle
length. AS rule she seems to have
ankles and foot to go with such alb
breviatfOns which help some. The love-
Hest gowns seen at present at the
shore seem to be built of French null
f1ouncings set together with sheer in
sertions. medallions and hand work.
The skirt of walking length frequently
consists of three or four such f1ounces
finished at the bottom with narrow
valenciennes applied by hand to the
lower flounce and kicking out at ankle
length in a most distracting fashion.
The lines of these gowns are most SIM
pie, their chief charm being an effect
of elaborate comfort and almost in
conceivable sheerness. 1t is an allow
er peek-a-boo effect just artistically
suggestive.

The Jeweled Cross.

She was gowned in velvet and sables,
And decked with jewels and lace;
And the naughty look of money
Was written in her face.

That lay upon her breast.
A cross all set with jewels,
Hung on Il jeweled chain

Could ease that look of pain!

What Can't Women DOT

In some of the downtown Offices of
referees in bankruptcy in New York
young women act as managing clerks.
Most of them are we'll equipped for
their positions. A well-known referee
whose Offices are in the Broad Ex-
change building has a bankruptcy
clerk who combines the qualities of an
expert stenographer, fast typist and
who has the grasp of the procedure
of the Office which lawyers regard as
somewhat remarkable. This clerk is
a modest, slender girl of 20 summers
She knows more about the bankruptcy
statutes than many lawyers, and when
the referee is absent she is an advo-
cate. Her undoubted talent and at
tractive personality are often discussed
by lawyers and clients. She, like a
number of other women who occupy
similar positions, would have little
trouble in passing her examination for
admission to the bar.-Pittsburg Dis
