How Elephants Cross River That
Has Steep Banks.

1t IS a great sight to see a line Of
elephants crossing river with steep
banks. They go down slowly, striking
the ground with their trunks before
each step and never making slip or
miss, although you feel every min
ute as If they were going to take
header into the water. Then they
wade or swim, as the case may be,
and they swim beautifully, not hesitate

CHRISTMAS A MOCKERY
TO LONDON DESTITUTE

London.-Although the West End
had it's usual joyous Christmas with
all the accompaniments of the holiday
season. it cannot betruthfully said
that the recent holiday brought any
great pleasure to the great and rap
idly increasing army of London's
poor New York's proud boast that
none go hungry on Christmas day
finds but a scant echo in the British
metropolis. While the charitable or
CARNATIONS feed a great army, their
dinners and distributions are not cer-
ried out on nearly as broad scale as
in American cities. In consequence
there were thousands of hungry peo-
pie in London Last Saturday night,
to whom peace on earth and good
will to men" were but words of bitter
mockery
Matters in the neighborhood of the
| london Docks have assumed a gloomy
aspect. The Rev. L. S. Wainwright.
vicar of St Peters, and chairman ct
the Stepney distress committee, speak
ing at the Grosvenor Hall, BuckinG-
| ham Palace road said the distress
| this year was greater than last year
| Since the time of the great dock
strike many years ago the conditions
| in the East End had been going from
bad to worse, and of late years un'
employment figures had been going
up by leaps and bounds.
Nobody could really forsee. he saii
how It all would end, or how much
longer the people would last ou
without breaking into open rebellion

annual ball given by the alumni of
the Lambda Sigma fraternity. The
boys as hosts have proven their abil-
tiles in the past and their affair Mon
day night only served as another tes-
timonial. Elaborate preparations in
the way of decorations had been made
and the Eagles Woodmen hall was
transformed into a bower of beauty
and coziness. Long strings of vari-
gated pennants, lent their gay colors
to the scene of merriment streamers
and festoons of blue and white bunt-
ing were draped from the center to
the walls; profusion of evergreen
boughs made natural background to
the setting; while Indian robes every
where added their rich warmth and
color to the other adornments. And
then there were cozy corners and Sc
questered hooks. wherein the flushed
dancers could retreat from the bril-
liant whirl. A description of the af-
fair would be incomplete without
some mention of that which gave an
imation to the whole scene. 1t is bu
a deserved tribute to say that the as.
semblage of that evening would serve
as conclusive evidence to the mos
