ABOUT ELEPHANTS. BELIEF THAT THEY ARE ENDOWED WITH SUPERIOR INTELLIGENCE. They Have Mental QuUUM Not Foaieaaad by Other Animal hUiwUnc Stories About Thorn Tho Tint On Brought to Thla Coentiy. "Elephants never go to sleep without leaving one of the herd awake to keep watch and give warning In case or in trusion. Go into the big menagerie tent of the show any sight after the ele phants hare gone to sleep, or go into one of the elephant ears on a night run, and yon will And that, no matter how Suietly and stealthily yon have entered, tie eye of one member of the herd is open you. Conklin believes, as do most all ele phant keepers, that the animal can un derstand what is said to it. Indeed, trainers assert that it has more intelli gence than any other animal, afld that it is the only one that can be taught to mind by word of mouth, without other cues. That it is endowed to a limited extent with reasoning powers is certain. One German philosopher thinks he has discovered that this mental development is due to the fact that in the trunk the elephant possesses a prehensile organ similar to the hand of man. The hand, he asserts, has played a more important part in the development of the human intellect than any other agency, since it brings its possessor into more Intimate relations with the external world than any other organ. Some menagerie man, with more practical observation than the German professor and a smaller bump of theorizing, has pointed out that the only flaw in this reasoning is that if it is correct the gorillas and chimpan zees ought to have a higher mental de velopment than man, because they have four good hands instead of two, and any one of the four is stranger than the eight hands of four men. Well authenticated stories of the sagacity of elephants are so numerous that it is never necessary to resort to ex aggeration to say something interesting about them. In their wild state the leader of a herd has been seen when ap proaching swampy ground to extend one foot to try its solidity before trusting ' his weight to it When satisfied of its firmness, he would go confidently on. and the whole herd would follow in single file, cautiously stepping in the footprints of the leader, so that when the entire herd had thus passed the ground would look as if a single animal had gone that way. The same trait of caution is preserved in the domesticated animal. -The action is not the result of training, but a brute instinct always dis played and bearing a striking resem blance to reason. 1 When Jumbo tried to butt a fast freight off from the Grand Trunk tracks in an effort to save the baby of the Bar num herd, Tom Thumb, and lost his life in the attempt, itjwaa said that his action gave unmistakable evidence of reason, though it was poor testimony to his Judgment that he so greatly under estimated the force of the locomotive. - In the matter of the food value of dif ferent materials the reasoning power of the elephant is very faulty, however. Us will eat almost anything that comes his way. If a oanvasman loaves a coat or vest hanging on a quarter pole with in reach ox an elephant, the big brute will edge over toward It and watch an opportunity when unobserved to toooh it with his trunk. Then he will begin to haul it toward him, putting in rolls of hay and chewing them between times. As soon as the garment is at his feet the elephant will put one of his ponderous five hoofed pedals on it afld begin to tear it up, rolling the pieces in his trunk and stuffing them into his mouth. The sole of a shoe is just as good for him to chew on as a wisp of hay, and bis natural instinct of mischief inclines him to prefer that which he knows is forbidden him. The first elephant brought to America for exhibition purposes was Old Bet, and it has often been remarked that the American circus was built on her shoul ders. Different accounts fail to agree in regard to the date of her importation, U .,1 1 11 .1 M . IV I A to 1833 by different writers of old time reminiscences. Old Bet was brought over in the ship America, of which Cap tain Crowningshield was master, and she landed, according to the harbor rec ords, in Philadelphia in April, 1798. . She was but S f eet high, and the sum of $10,000 was paid for her, the largest price that had been paid up to that time for any animal, either here or in Eu rope. She was first exhibited in Phila delphia and astonished the public daily by drawing the oorkti from 80 bottles of beer and drinking the contents. On the 30th of June, 1709, she passed through New York on the way to Bos ton. Old Bet had been bought on the com munity plan by a number of farmers of Putnam county, N. Y., at the instance of one Ludwig Bistadler, each mortgag ing bis farm and putting $500 into the venture. They exhibited her under wag- rn ahfiAa At Vinfda Kv Ttnff.i-nr, a nioM side canvas up in front of the shed. The admission was 25 cents for adults and 12) cents, or a York shilling, for chil dren. This gigantio zoological institute, as the caravan was called, traveled east as far as Pawtucket, R. L where the elephant, in spite of its docile disposi tion, was shot and killed. As the "in stitute" contained no other attractions the show closed. The same proprietors then imported a second elephant, which they also called Old Bet, and they en ' larged their exhibition by adding to the collection a lion and a two horse cage and one monkey in a box strapped on to the hind end of the lion's cage. The second Old Bet landed in 1833. Follow - ing her to these shores the next pachy derm to arrive seems to have been Mo gul, a very big fellow with long tusks, who was burned on the steamer Royal Tar between.

When a diamond k found weighing more than 100 carats, the news is usu ally heralded with much ado. It is not to be wondered at therefore If the find ing of the "Excelsior" created consid-. erablo excitement It wo'ghed in the rough 971 carats, and was found near Jagersfontoin, in the Orange Free State. When examined, it was found to be a white stone of the first water, but had a small flaw in the center. The in spector of the mine, a 8wede named Jorgenson, was the lucky finder. The proprietors of the mine, Breitmayer & Bernheimer, had the stone tested and valued by experts, who agreed that the value was $5,000,000. Two offers of $3,000,000 and $4,250,000 respectively have been refused by the proprietors. Udod its transfer to the coast great pre cautions were taken for its protection. A squadron of cavalry escorted it to the railway station. In Cape Town it was placed aboard the British gunboat Ante lobe, whioh carried the' precious gem, to London, where it now rests in the fire and burglar proof vaults of the Bank of England. The next largest diamond in the world is the one owned by the rajah of Matan on the island of Borneo. This one weighs 867 carats. The handsomest of all the large diamonds known is, however, the one in the French collection of crown jewels known as the "Regent," which weighs 138 carats. Louis XV paid 8,000,000 franca for it, but now it is valued at 10,000,000 francs or $2,000,- ooo. ; : How much the "Excelsior" will lose in cutting can only be decided by most eminent experts. As a rule, the larger diamonds lose fully one-half of 'their weight in thiB operation. Naturally the cutting, which is done with a view to having as few large pieces as possible outside of the main gem, must be carried on with the greatest care. This business is carried on mainly in Amsterdam and Antwerp. In Amsterdam there are at present five large concerns of diamond cutters, with 872 diamond mills or cut ting wheels and 8,000 hands, besides a large number of less important concerns. Philadelphia Record. Jipu'i Oraad Old Mas. Yuklchi Fnkuzawa is the Grand Old Man of Japan, although he is about 20 years younger than the members of that more famous triumvirate Gladstone, Bismarck and Li Hung Chang. ' More than any other man, says a eorretpond ent, he has brought Japan to that post tion which she now holds among the civilized nations of the world. Thirty- five years ago he visited this country. and on his return home introduced the Webster Dictionary to his countrymen, a book that is considered the foundation of Japan's intellectual power. He also introduced English into all the schools. In days when Japan was divided into two parties one for and the other against foreigners he advocated the opening of his country to the new world. and bis book in behalf of western civili zation, which he wrote from his studies and travels in America, had a consid. erable effect in restoring to the throne the dynasty of which the present em peror is a member. The Ji ji Shimpo (The Times newspa per) is his organ, and although he does not actively manage it his sons are the editors, and its influence is widespread. doubtless because it is independent in every sense. Perhaps his greatest bene faction was the founding of a school known as the Eewgijiukn university. which is second only to the Imperial university of Tokyo in point of numbers and tank of scholarship. Mr. Fnkuzawa comes from the common people and is known as the "great commoner." and what shows above all the character of the man is that he has never allowed himself to be carried away by his suc cess and has modestly refused to accept decorations, honors or even the peerage from the mikado. Detroit Free Press. - Tho Wroek of tho Jaooa ea Capo Cod. A half mile away the prow of the wreck Jason, with its white figurehead, rose clean out of the water, standing where she struck the night of the 5th of December, nearly two years ago. The iron schooner broke clean in two that night with the first shock, and the waves rushed over her stern, which sank like lead into the sand. Twenty-seven men went down with it, and next zoprnlng 26 dead bodies lay upon the shore in among the scattered bales of jute that had formed the cargo. But the twenty seventh, reaching the shore alive, man aged to clutch hold of one of the bales of the floating cargo and kept his foot ing. He was a young fellow, a prentice lad out of an English rectory, and he was very nearly exhausted with the struggle, but he staggered on along the sand through the storm until he met the squad of the life saving crew coming to give neip wnere mere was only one man left to need it, and catching at the first man he cried out to know that he was safe. When they told him that he was, he fell down in a faint, and was carried to the station like a log. The letter his father wrote in gratitude for their care of him is kept ararmg the rec ords of the station, and it is one of the few pleasant things to remember about the most terrible wreck that had ever lain on the dangerous Truro coast Letter in Boston Transcript A Remarkable Dwarf: There lives at Marion, Ind., a dwarf, Janie Loder . by name,' who is 54 years old, 47 inches high and weighs about 64 pounds.

HOW MARJNESOFTHEUNITED STATES - ARE CARED FOR. Thoy Aro Bettor Clothed u4 rod ThM Mur Maehanlca oo tMm One of Toll m Reporter All A boot Their rooorilnya ul Tn A marino was asked by a reporter to give an account of what he received in the service of Uncle Sam and now he and his fellows enjoyed themselves on board ship. The following was bis story: The government engages marine for a period of five years. At the end of that time the marine may quit the service or he may re-enlist There is no doubt of his being able to continue in the servloe if he does his work honestly. There Is no worry about getting out of a job with Uncle Sam. During the first and second years of the marine's servloe he gets in money, paid monthly, f IS. The third year he gets $14, the fourth $15 and the sixth $16. If at the expiration of his first five years servloe he re-enlists, he gets $18 a month, and if he enlists tar a third period of five years he gets $19 a month in money. That is the cash part of it, but that is not half of what a man in the service sets. The government clothes its men besides, and in very good style. It gives a marine a black helmet and a white one. These two are supposed to last for the period of enlistment, which Is five ye ara. x There is no troublo about wear ing them that length of time, as they are not of ten used. The marine also gets one undress cap a year, which is all be needs. He also gets a storm cap each year. That makes 13 articles of bead gear which the government supplies him with in the course of five years, and ex perience shows that thst is quite suf ficient' It is nearly three hats a year. and there are not many workingmen who buy as msny as thst "The marine also gets one full dress coat which, as it is not frequently used. lasts five years very nicely. He receives a fatigue jacket each year and an over coat He sets eight pairs of blue trou sers and eight pairs of linen ones in five years, and experience shows that if a man Is careful be does cot need that many. He ia also supplied with 80 pairs of gloves for the five years. He gets two flannel overshirts each year. He also has two undershirts and two pairs of drawers each year. He also receives lour pairs of woolen socks and four pairs of cotton socks each year. He is supplied with three pairs of shoes each year and one pair of arctic shoes each season. He receives two pairs of blan kets during the term of service. He is also given 40 linen collars and three pairs of suspenders during the same time. That is the outfit In the way of clothing which the government gives each marine who ' joins the service. These articles are all of first class mate rial, too, and very serviceable. There ia no stint at all There are a few articles, like neckties and handkerchiefs, which the marine must buy for himself. "If a man is careful and economical with his clothing, he can save fully one-half of too. allowance which he gets, and If be saves any part of it be Is al lowed so- much money for . the clothing he does not take. There, are men in the service today who are taking only about one-half of what the government al lows, and at the end of their five years service they will be paid in money for the clothes they did not take. The full value of the clothing allowed to each man for five years is $196. "The sleeping accommodations of the men are very good. While on shore du ty they live in houses and have beds, but while on shipboard they sleep In hammocks which the government fur nishes. The sleeping Quarters, both on land and at sea, are clean and well ven tilated. The food ia all that a man needs. &metimes the commissary is not well administered, and the men complain. but they can soon eet a chance if thee take their complaints to the proper offi cer. The food is very good and of suffi cient variety for any one. "The men on shipboard also eet all they need free, and medical attendance costs them nothing. how this is the pay a man gets as a marine in the navy. He is well clothed and well fed. He sleeps in a good bed or a hammock, has proper attention if he is sick and draws handsome vim in cash every month. "His work is not at all burdensome. He has enough drill to keep him in the best physical condition and give his atv petite a keen edge. He has lets of time for amusement On shore he can play billiards and pool free at the post, and he may en lev all kinds of exercls. in the gymnasium. The men nlav baaebalL handball, football They put the ham mer and shot and enjoy themselves just as much as the college boys do. The government also has at each post and on shipboard a library and a reading room, where the men may entertain themselves with books and papers. "Out of their wages the men must pay their barber and laundry bills, which together amount to about $3 a month. "Besides this the marine is taken care of in his old age. If his life, has been honorable, at the end of 20 years' service he may retire to the Mariners home, where he will have a room to himself, a good table, three suits of clothes a year, tobacco free and $3 a month. If he does not retire until after he has served 30 years, he then gets three-quarters pay and three-quarters of all al lowances of clothing, besides a good home and good board, for the rest of his life. "It will be seen that Uncle Sam is not niggardly in dealing with his men. If they do their duty, they receive good treatment and are well fed and clothed, and draw, all things considered, very fair pay. "New York Telegram.

TW Mooorrpo Crooo la Trim X -oov More, An effective departure in art is the new monotype that is beginning to find its way to America from Paris, where it has enjoyed for some months a vio lent popularity. Theproceas was discov ered by Hubert Herkimer. The artistic folk of Paris were quick to see its pos sibilities, and the fame thereof new like wildfire through the Inflammable painters quarters. Monotype partise have been one of the latest fads cf these appreciative people. Artists Infected with the erase and their curious friends gather in some accessible studio in ar dent croupe to turn oct these picture. The excitement lies In the fact that no one can foresee quite how they will turn out ; the pleasure, not in the novelty, though that of course, contributes to it, but mostly in the potent truth that In so other way can the same effects of light and shade be obtained. ' To prodrice the monotype the artlrt paints bis study upon a zinc plate, which is put through a press. As the .name implies, only one Impression ia produced. Those that are done la one color are tho most successful as yet though some of the two color attempts are very charming. Tbe subtlety of cer tain delicate effects, as, for instance, sunlight on water, is rendered by this new phase of art in a truly marvelous a . a a .a m . - M manner. Altnougn tne coroiaury oz Paris may not be expected, perhaps in America for the monotype, there can be no doubt that they will be warmly re ceived bere when they are once at home in our ait exhibits, and when, too, the public has learned to understand them sufficiently to appreciate the fact that a favorite study, produced in this way, will not be found duplicated in a neigh bor's drawing room. .This is now the fear of the careless art patron who seems to have some haxy idea -if etchings in his mind. Tbe practical wife of. an artist who has lately returned from Paris with the monotype fever raging In bis blood com plains ruefully, "Why, my husband took the clotbeswrlnger away from the maids for a press to produce those pic tures !" She smiled with a woman's su periority as she added: "He said they could have it back again! It would take at least three hours to remove that oily paint with turpentine every time they used it" With a sigh. "I have bought a new wringer." So there is a sordid side even to such gems cf art as this wife displays with a pride thst must soften if it doesn't efface the domestic inconvenience. Tbe awtbetio side is Venetian scenes in brown, an old stone bridge in gray, mountain peaks and a ansae ape in blue and a cluster of picturesque willows in green. Who could mind the loss cfone wringer after feasting the eyes on such exquisite shading, particularly if it isn't her wringer? New York Times. Tho It laortoo of Dote Hothle. Idleness plays many parts. There are the constitutionally indolent those who, like Dr. Johnson, are never phys ically ready to get up in the morning. but who, like him, are possessed of a conscience which compels them now and again to f aos the reflection of what they have, compared with what they might have, done, and to stand aghast at the comparison. There are those whom circumstances have made idle riches, absence of mo tives for exertion; ill health, real or fancied; indulgent friends, and much more often by self indulgence. That idleness is one of tbe seven deadly "ins gives them no sort of ooncern ; it is of the essence of their complaint to have so feeling of their own infirmity. They are asleep. They cannot tell their dreams, for they do not even know that they are dreaming. Giving up, nerveless relaxation, has become a habit and to them as to the immortal Mr. Toot:, though from a dif ferent motive nothing is of any conse- iueocjL out wnereas it v as nil own convenience, his own feelings, his own comfort that never were of consequence to the unselfish Toots, it is precisely your convenience, your feelings, your comfort, that ara to the idle man of no consequence. Flos ring idly about on "the great Pacific ocean of indolence,' he makes first one compromise, then an other, with self respect until be ends by sacrificing the esteem of his fellow men on the private altar of his own sloth. His affairs get first muddled, then embarrassed, then decaying, then desperate, and he feebly flatters him self with an idea of repose, now that all is gone. Chambers Journal A GlfmaOo Map.

Although it Is yet amsll la ccmpariscsj with the enormous amount of money paid for newspaper advertising, it Is, for various reasons, a peculiarly inter esting development cf modern tcxineas methods. It is an outgrowth cf impor tant social betterments, a new field for the display cf ertlstia and literary tal ent and a not Inconsiderable element of ntertainment as well as practical In formation for the quick witted Ameri can public. , It is also a field curiously liable to be cornered.

Alrcdy half a dozen firms are spending from $75,000 to $100,000 a year each ia this way. at least 20 concerns each expend from $45, 000 to $75,000, and from 25 to SO may be counted who put out from $35,000 to $40,000 each. These sums.

Tbe growth cf street car advertising has been to a very marked decree de pendent cpna and rynchronous with marked improvements in street car serr ice. It was a very Insignificant interest in the eld days cf the horse cars prior to 1673. The low ceiled, dingy, ill lighted vehicles then in use carried a few plain. unattractive cards, half oborcmi by dust and covered by glass, the refrac tions from wkich made them difficult ti decipher. Only local adTrnUrrs com pied spaces and did so rather to help i struggling enterprise or get rid cf a per sistent solicitor than through any hope of profit from the investment Then, in San Francisco primarily, cable traction began to take the place cf horses, ena bling the employment cf roomier, loft ier cars, handsomer in every detail cf materials, form and color than the old ones, and some genius 'evolved the hap py idea of confining the advertising cards by moldings in ooncave spaces and without glasa. Atone the cards made to conform to their improved sur roundings. They were more handsome ly designed, printed in bright axtract- irs colors and sometimes Illustrated. It was not until 18 S3, when alectrio propulsion had . been dearly demon strated to b commercially practicable ana trauey lines were put in operation au over the country, that street car ad verosmg negan to assume Its present character.- As before the Improvement in it was in keeping with the better ment cf the vehicles, which were now no longer simply comfortable, but be came luxurious.
