This is. the ELEPHANTS IN INDIA HOW THESE HUGE ANIMALS ARE TRAINED , FOR SERVICE., Used Extensively by Government -0 Trapping Tuskers In Their Native Forests -Tame ElephantsUsed as Decoys -Many Die on March Back -They Beacom. Docile and Display Great Sagacity. • One-fifth of the entire population of the globe is found in the Indian pen- insula, chiefly in agricultural village communities, divided .in many eases by great forest tracts abounding in big game. Foremost among this game came the wild elephants, which have played so important a part in the economy of Hindustan ever Since the days of the Mogul empire. Elephants indeed are employed in all branches of the civil and military services; and their duties range from hauling artillery over the Himalayan passes to stacking teak logs in the bigsaw- mills of Rangoon and Moulmein in Burma. All the wild elephants of India are :Government property, except in the native territories,where they belong to the feudal princes. These poten- tates have very different uses for the birtuskers. In a state like Mysore newly -tamed elephants are used in tiger hunts, and also for the great tam- ashas-those gorgeous festivals which have been such a potable feature of India for thousands of years,. Fights between elephants and also elephants and tigers • are common features at such entertainments. • A Curious Industry. ' But to see the wild elephant traffic at its best, one must visit the centre of this 'curious industry, which is Dacoa in Bengal. To such a point newly -trapped elephants are marched by a small army of men, then lodged in vast stables, and drawn upon as required for Government and private service, All the railroads, particular- ly in South India, maintain specially - constructed elephant trains; .'and up and down the coast ply entire .fleets of *steamers, likewise specially built. for the elephant traffic; Altogether there are at least 17,000 men employed in the Elephant Service of the Indian Government; and these have both na- tive and white officers. Every mili- tary poet has its• battery of working elephants, each capable of Marching forty: miles a, day with a load of half - a ton-idealfreight animals for so wild a country.; where in many parts roads are wholly unknown. Dacca is the headquarters of the Bengal Ele- phant -Catching Establishment of the Indian Government. It lies on a branch of the Ganges, and its en- virons _supply- enormous_quantities of water grasses as fodder. The city is also within 190 miles of the great for- ests of Chittagong, Sylhet, and Ca:ch- er, where the wild tuskers are trapped in great kedclhas or Staked fnclosureti. This work is easily the most remark- able of Government undertakings, and quite a small army is deputed for the purpose; headed by officers whose knowledge of woodcraft and elephant wiles is nothing short Of miraculous. . Elephant Hospital. Outside Dacca, is an enormouspeel-.. khana, or elephant depot; over one square .mile in extent. This great square is Bitched on every side; .and in the centre huge Herds of tuskers are picketed in long rows awaiting the periodical auctions, and afterward transported by sea and land to all parts of India. Each elephant stands on a square • of, concrete,. with iron posts at head and feet. To these the great creatures are roped. In the middle of the huge quadran- gle is -a...shed-roofed-with wet --.grass.; here .the delicate animals •ars kept during .the heat of the day. There is even a hospital; and adjoining are warehouses for hoWdahs, gear, and stores, as well as the offices of physi- cians and surgeons, who treat both attendants and animals. All these buildings are close to the river, so that the elephants may have easy access to water. This also in- sures,the 'carriage by boat of enormous' quantities of green fodder. .

Needless to say, this queerest of Government work is full of excite - merit For in one herd there may be BO or 90 enormous creatures, many of them uncertain in temper and full ot fury at being trapped. Atter the ele- phants leave been tamed, they are roughly classified. Some are pre-. empted for the native princes; others let aside for the commissariat, trans- port and artillery services. Some may die on the march back to Dacca; and the least valuable are Put up to public auction, when they fall to the lot of private merchants and companies. The service is now officed entirely by white men, for the native mah- outs were found to be both cruel and tricky. Some native officers seemed to think the elephant's health and strength could be maintained on a semi -starvation - diet. As a matter of fact the elephant is a delicate crea- ture, liable to sunstroke and other ailments. In his eighteen working hours the elephant will eat over 700 pounds of lush fodder. He throw aside a good deal; if you give a work- ing elephant 800 pounds of long -stalk. ed.dhall grass, he will probably waste 100 pounds of it. Sonaetitries, how- ever, a change of diet will be reeone mended by the Government "vets," and 750 pounds of dry sugar cane will be substituted for the grass. •. Training the Elephants. In Dacca specially trained British offixers take charge of the vast ale- phant clearing house, -and are in con• stant touch, With all parts of the Ent pire, from the Hinialayas to the ex- treme south. They regulate the trans. port and forwarding of the elephants by the special trains and fleets 'el steamers built for the purpose. Some. timers an order for 60 tuskers will be received from an important military. centre like Lahore. Such animals aro selected by experts; And each is te. quire(' to possess high intelligence, good temper, and much capacity foi wok.

A HARD JOB IN BAD WEATHER Each Man, With His Feet and Lege . Bare, Scrubs His Own Clothe* and Gets Them Reedy ' For Inspection. "Jimmy Lege" and the "Lucky Bag." Have you ever noticed hew clean and well dressed a sailor lad looks when on ahOre leave, how white. his clothes, look when you board the ship on vie- iting days? But did you ever realize that he was his ONVP washerman? With a shrill blalit of his efiver whis- tle the chief boatswain's mate will pipe, "Sernb and wash clothes!" and every man hurries to his bucket, gets his soiled clothes, silt water seep. draws bucket of briny or fresh wa- ter, as the case may be, and begins big washing, He is generally barefooted at this time, so that he will not wet his shims and stockings, He wears his trousers very bell shaped at the bottom in order that be may roil them up over the knee After scrubbing and rubbing his clothes until clean be turns them In- side out and with "stops" proeeedeto get *hens ready for hanging up.

They are then hung on a line:which, says the. Youthi Companion, is 'run from the bow to the topmast Or upper top. of a fighting mast.

DO, Maxim (Sir Hiram)" after the clOtie of the great civil war in Artierice, was visiting one of the southern battlefields. He picked up a Springfield rIfie and began firing at a target He soon discovered, to his amazement, that his shoulder was all black and blue with the rec011. This set Ulm thinking, and he soon con- ceived the idea of utilizing this force In a gun which would the automatie- ally. He went to London full of his idea, but no one would listen to him, In 13irminghans the chief roan in 4 fac- tory refused to mase a bolt gun. In despair' Mr. Mufti) pacloed up hie trunks and went to Paris. In two weeks the work Was done. This gun Mr. Maxim exhibited in London in 1885. Ile spoke of it then as the gun of the future. It is iwiv the gun of the present. • it is 11/4 wonderful gun and a deadly one. By adjusting the indica- tor it will fire bullets at any rate from one per minute to 000. This terrible weapon is started by the fliing of the first shot.. After that 11 workS itself and vvill keep going as long as cartridges can be fed into the machine. When one belt of 333 is ex- hausted, all. that •is necessary is to hook on another. When the British .government gave an Order for. the gun they, stipulated that It 'should not weigh More than a hundred pounds and shouldie capable of firing a thousand roun four minutes, Mr. Maxim produced a gun which wele,heil thirty -live pounds and ' fired 2,000 rounds in three minutes. • AN IRREGULAR VERB': One.

Clearly, this require mueli patience and -ingenuity; for many a- tisk& coaxed even a little way into the surf, will bolt back, screeching with terror and fury. At last each of the great creatures is fairly planted on he teams of the raft and his legs- securely lashed.. Then comes the journey out, and this is possibly only , in good weather. Meanwhile great slings of canvas, rope and chain gear have been pre- pared on board; and after a' few Mo- ments' wait the .slings are lowered, and the elephant strapped in such a • way as not to hurt him. Then, at a given signal; the winch rattles, and the huge creature of five or six tons is swung high into the air, and land- , ed at length an the ship's deck. , Some vessels of the elephant fleet will carry 300 tinkers with theirtraine I ed attendants'.
