DRIVING AN ELEPHANT.
The Mahout's Hook and Spike and His
Knee and Tos.

HUSS AVO uoS.
"The dog is mans companion;
the elephant is his slave" writes
Sir Samuel w. Baker in "Wild
Beasts and Their Ways" The dog
shares with his master the delight of
hunting and defends him from an
enemy's attack, but an enemy might
kill an elephants mahout and the
beast would not interfere to save
him. He never volunteers his serv-
ices, although he can be trained to
do certain acts, for he has a wonder
full capacity for learning. But he
will not do them unless he is or
dered to by his mahout, to whose
guidance he submits because he
knows that disobedience will bring
punishment.
The mahout, sitting on the ele-
plants neck, governs the animal by
an iron hook and spike, which re-
sembles a boat hook and weighs
from four to six pounds. The ma
hout drives the elephant forward by
digging the point of the spike into
its head and pulls him back by in
serting the hook in the tender base
of the ears. Without the hook the
elephant is like the donkey without
the stick. He obeys not from affec-
ton, but because he knows he will
be punished If he disObevs.
An elephant whose mahout rules
him responds to the secret signs OF
his driver. The gentle pressure of
the mahout's toe, the compression
of his knee, the delicate touch Of his
heel or the slightest swaying of his
body to one side guides the mighty
beast as a ship is guided by an al
most imperceptible movement Of
the rudder. But the mahout must
himself be cool and free from all
nervousness if he expects the ele-
plant to obey him.
Illustrating the fact that a poor
driver makes a disobedient elephant,
Sir Samuel SAYS a man may sit a
horse gracefully. but if he has not
the gift of a good hand" there will
be little comfort for the animal and
no ease for the rider. A rider with
a "bad hand" makes the fact known
to the horse almost as soon as he
seats himself in the saddle. The re-
suit is that the horse becomes nerv-
Gus and does not perceive what his
master wishes him to do.
The elephant is not bitted and
therefore is not disturbed by a "bad
hand.' But if the mahout is nerv-
Gus or h~esitates or vacillates he
will be sure to have a "bad knee
or a 'bad toe" His mood will in
fuence his muscles, and the ele-
plant feels that the mahout does
not exactly know what he is about.
Instead Of obeying instantly the
pressure of knee or toe, the animal
vacillates, swings his head, be-
comes unsteady and if engaged in
bunting or seeming a tiger turns
round and runs away-made a COW
ard by his masters nervousness.

The trial Of Crippen in England

lished in the press dispatches IS

have prevailed in an American
court. There was absolutely no
proof that Crippen:s wife was
dead, nor was there any proof
that the parts Of an anima! found
in tic c5 liar Of the Crippen home
was a human being. The man
was convicted entirely on susplc.
ion and circumstantial evidence.
He is to be executed on Novem.

ism" Fire Alarm Foraker in a

ing up going on all over the
country, and the old timers IN
both Of the old parties are scared
nigh unto death. Roosevelt's new
political theories has got them

them to determine whether to
join in the acclaim for the new

opposition to squelch it. Il they
follow Teddy he may lead them
into the dense Businesses Of
political oblivion, but II they do
not follow him the people may
give them the pink slip. Roose-
