q suspicion that they GET great deal of pleasure
from outguessing their keepers. One of their
jokes, executed ct the expense Of p T. Barnnm,
created moved entertainment for a number Of
citizens Of Wheeling, w. Va, in the Summer
Of 1852.
The weather was hot and sultry and the
trainer decided to give the herd a chance to
disport themselves IN the cool waters Of the
Ohio River, which surrounded the island on
which the pavilions were pitched. After the
return Of the parade, their tawdry trappings
were removed and with each grabbing the tail
of the one In 'front.' they were led down the
steep slope into the stream. They Immediately
proceeded to roll round In the rapid current,
giving vent to their pleasure by loud trumpet
ings and splashings, much to the entertainment
OF large crowd Of spectators standing on the
banks Of the stream.
AS the time approached for the afternoon
performance. the trainers started to round the
elephants up. But at each attempt the animals
majeStcally moved a little farther out toward
deeper water. Finally, led by old Queen, they
reached the middle of the river, beyond the
depth Of the horses ridden by the caretakers.
The men were at their Wits eno. Every e4-
pedient was abortive in its effect. One O'Clock,
the time set for the opening Of the doors for
the afternoon performance. arrived and the
elephants showed not the slightest indication
of coming out of the river. Worst Of an, the
prospective patrons remained on the bank, de-
Gliding that the outside show was preferable
to that inside-end also cheaper. "P. T." was
apprised of the state Of affairs. He fastened
down the river with sundry suggestions, each
of which accomplished nothing.
Suddenly old Queen discovered the verdant
foliage growing on the Ohio side With loud
trumpeting she headed for the opposite bank,
followed by the entire herd. Fearing they
would take to the tall timber, the trainers rode
rapidly across the back river bridge, hoping to
cut them on before they reached the shore.
The men gained the opposite bank just rs
Queen reached shallow water. Seeing she was
cut on, she TRANQUILITY turned back into deep
water again, followed by her constituency. All
except Queen then placidly proceeded to the
West Virginia side, whence they were rushed
TO the lot
But the problem was still unSolved, as NO
elephant act could be given without the aid Of
Queen who was the "understander" in the pyra-
mid formations. She was still in the middle Of

she must be getting pretty hungry. A Dor
rowed boat was filed with hay and rowed up
the river to point about 100 yards above her
position. The men then began to throw wisps
of hay into the river in such manner that they
would pass between her and the shallow water.
She allowed half dozen punches to float by
unnoticed. and the men begin to lose hope.
But eventually, a small eddy carried one Of

One factor that IL missing as yet, or that is

FOREIGN TRADE
ON THE DECLINE
AskOv Bank Cashier Tells OF tnt
Effect on Foreign Trade Caused
by the New Tariff Law.

7. Ryron Olsen, cashier of the local
hank gave a very interesting talk be-
fore the Young Peoples society at thelr
meeting Sunday evening when ne as
cussed the effects on American foreign
trade as a result of the new tarlll
law. and the attitude that other coun-
tries are taking toward America.
Mr.. Olsen said that the American
foreign trade with only one country,
Canada, had dropped S111,ooo,ooo
during the first five months OF 1857
below that of the corresponding PERIOD
of 1929. The speaker told of how the
Liberals were defeated by the Con-
servatists in the recent election IN
Canada because the people felt that
the Liberals had not shown strong
enough retaIiatory measures toward
America on the tariff proposition. He
also related how England, france
Germany, Austria, and other coun-
tries feel toward America on account
of the recently passed HaWley-Smool
tariff bill.

American products. Hamilton FISH
a member of congressional inVestl'
cation committee had willfully ano
unnecessarily embarrassed Russian
business representative, Mr.. Bogdanov
of New York City, in most tact

speaker said would not cause better
feeling between America and Russia
The speaker also related about th'
cutting down of the immigration quota
from Japan. ALI these matters hav'
bearing on world trade and are no
working to the benefit of American
commerce and trade, said the speaker
and declared that the recently passe
tariff law had caused the creates
friction.
