INDIAN MAHOUT

What lie Said

LONDON, August ia big fc-
male Indian elephant that went on
strike at the zoo last spring and re
fused to do what all big elephants at
the ZOO are required to do-earn
money by carrying children around
on her bacls-has been cured of the
sull;s and Iaziness by the seeming
magic treatment Of an Indian ma
hout.
She was presented to the zoo By
Maharajah Of Cooch Behar two years
ago. She had been a wel!-beh2ved eie-
plant and obeyed orders properly.
She developed no vices beyond that
of picking pockets for edible dainties,
But every elephant that has any
sense at ali learns to do that in the
zoo.
Then she took it into her big head
that she would not submit to being
bossed any longer She declined to

that had been fixed up for the con.
venience of juvenile elephant riders

clined to leave thes elephant yard at

As the elephant is.a fine animal,
and quite good tempered, it was de-
cidpd to obtain a mahout from India.
He Nyas cabl.d for, and arrived in
due course. He was taken to the
elephant house He at once entered
the enclosure and formally saluted
the animal, standing first at her head
and then at her tail. Next he took
off his shoes, and knotted rope
loosely round the elephants neck,
which he afterwards used as a kind OF
stirrup.
With little difficulty he persuaded
her to kneel and mounted her neck
In less than two minutes, soothing,
batting, and talking volubly to her in
Hindustani, he had got on good terms
with the animal. Then he took her
round to the elephant ride, and APP

Situation In Holy
Land Is Explained
Hioh Commissioner Sir Herbert
Samuel Issues Statement
Regarding Affairs There

Jerusalem, July 1S.-tCorrespon-
dence, For The Associated Press1-
Sir Herbert Samuel, High Commits
sioner for Palestine, in statement
submitted at the meeting~o the ad-
visory Council has made the fol-
lowing declaration explaining the
situation of Palestine:
II have returned to Palestine to
find that the confirmation of the
Palestine Mandate by the League
of Nations is giving rise to a re-
markable series of false rumors
which have been spread among the
people. 1t has once more been as
serted that the Moslem possession
of the Mosque l-Aqsa and the
Haram Esh- Sharif is threatened,
and representatives nave been sent
to Mecca to defend Moslem rights.
1t is not necessary to go to so much
trouble to repel an attack which no
one has made or will make. The
Moslem, possession of the Haram
Esn- Sharif is absolutely guaran-
teed, not only by the declarations
of the British government, but by
Article Is of the Mandate itself.
at is rumored also that on the
passage of the Mandate, Tie British
flags over the governorates will be
replaced by Zionist flags; the gov
eminent of the country will be
transferred to the Zionist organize
ton. and 10000 Jews will immed
lately enter the country to occupy
it, l am not so much surprised that
mischief makers should spread
fantastic stories of this character as
All that any sane human being
should believe them. Yet, | am as
sured that so -credulous are sections
of the population of this country
that there are many individuals
who really believe that events such
as these will happen.
The approval or the Mandate
will make no difference whatever
in the present administration of the
country, or in the laws relating to
immigration. 1t will. hoYlHyer, be
followed by the enactment " a con-
stitution which will provide for the
establishment of legislative as
sembly containing a majority Of
members elected by the people. The
drawing of the list of voters will
begin as soon as the constitution is
promulgated. and when that is CON-
pleted-it must necessarily take
some time-the election will take
place"

HERRIN MINE WAR QUIZ
Grand jury investigation Expected
To Yield More Evidence
[ Associated Press DiEpatch.I

Marion, Ill, August 81. - The
fourth day of the grand jury inves
tigation OF the Herrin mine war
was expected today to yield more
evidence on the strength OF which
it is now certain many more in
dictments will be issued, in adj
ton TO the first already made
known yesterday.
General Brundage is confident
that the testimony furnished by
no residents of Williamson county
is more than sufficient TO bring
about numerous indictments.
Mr.. Brundage has taken the view
that tear of discriminating them
nesses of Williamson county 10
selves has prompted resident wit
withhold information but at the
same time has expressed belief
that some witnesses would readily
turn states evidence after indict-
ments had been voted.
The complaint of the Mexican
government that citizens Of that
country were victims of the massa-
ere is known to have been drawn
into the investigation, but It has
ben revealed that the testimony OF
the witness has failed to substan
tate the complaint.
