TANGOING ELE GIANTS.

To be up to date is the sole ambition
of all persons connected with a circus.
A good ILLUSTRATION of this is the case of
Mr.. Emory Styles, Superintendent Of
Gollmar Bros. big menagerie, and trainer
of their herd of performing elephants.
A few years ago Mr.. Styles had his
huge actors dancing the Merry Widow
waltz. That craze did not last long.
Then he taught them to Turkey Trot. y
The Turkey Trot has become passe. The
latest terpsichorean diversion and the
newest dance is the Tango" AS soon
as it was introduced Mr.. Styles at once
went to see all the best Tango dancers
in the country; and after satisfying him
self that he knew the dance thoroughly,
returned to the winter quarters of the
show and began teaching the elephants
the Tango. When the first performance
was given this spring, at the large Audi
forum Building in Milwaukee, Mr..
Styles introduced the Tango dancing
elephants.
To see the monster creatures locked
in fond embrace, their ungainly bodies
swaying in perfect time to the seductive
syncopated strains of the band is posi-.
lively convulsing.

Altho they played the best article of
baseball exhibited on the local diamond
this season, the New Ulm Baseball club
went down to defeat at the hands OF the
fast Mankato team last Sunday Shourds
the former Mankato Business College
star who shut the boys out on their
disastrous trip to Springfeld'a week ago,
was on the mound again and achieved
shutout. Up to the eighth the game
was splendid exhibition of the national
pastime and with the score a blank at
that time it looked as if extra innings
would be in order. But five we'll placed
hits and an error accounted for four
runs for the visitors and that was more
than plenty to win the game.

Berlin, Aug. 10, via Copenhagen and
London.-A series of statements on
the Iiege enigma is published from
the headquarters Of General Stein, &C.
cording to which French officers and
perhaps also French soldiers, were
sent to Liege before the war to in
struct the Belgian troops in the de-
tense of the Notifications.
1T was impossible to protest against
this" General Stein. says, "but after
the war began this conduct had to be
regarded as an infraction of Belgian
neutrality by France. We had to act
with all speed and modified. Regi-
ments were sent to the frontier and
marched on Liege. Six weak brigades
on peace footing, with some cavalry
and artillery, took Liege.
"The brigades were modified at
Liege and there received as first re-
enforcement their own reserves. Two
other regiments came later. Our mo.
bilization has just finished. Our enc
mics thought that 100000 Germans
were at Liege and, owing to difficult
ties with the commissariat, were un-
able to advance. This, however. was
a mistake. There was another reason
for the pause.
"Now the forward march can begin
and our enemies will have an oppor-
tunity to convince themselves that the
German force is well supplied with
food and arms. The emperor has CIV
en- the word not to sacrifice another
drop of blood to capture the Liege
forts.
1.-The enemy did not know our meth
DDS of attack and believed themselves
secure in the forts, but already the
fire of our weakest big guns had
forced the forts which they shelled
to surrender, or quickly demolished
them, burying the garrisons in the
ruins. The Liege Notifications no
longer will serve our enemies, but will
be support to the German army.

COMES FROM TWO SOURCES

Rumor Of Naval Engagement in tho
North Sea.
London, Aug. ia dispatch to the
Central News from Harwich says that
a naval engagement occurred early
Tuesday morning in the North sea
about 100 miles off Harwich.
The statement of the correspondent
is not confirmed by the official bu-
reau.
The Amsterdam correspondent of
the Post says telegram has been re-
ceived there from Texel island re-
porting heavy gun firing in a western
direction.
Texel island is in the North sea
and is the southwesternmost of the
Tristan islands, forming part of the
province of North Holland.
