ANTELOPE SHOOTING SCRAPE.
William llulre Attempts to Kill Mart
Clancey and It. A. Hansell,
Laat Wednesday nicht about 10 o'clock
Mart Clancey and R. A. Hansell went
into the Eureka saloon in Antelope and
eat down by the Etove. John Little,
who waa in the saloon at the time,
asked Hansell nnd Ciancey to take a
drink. One called for port wine and the
other for a soda, when Little spoke up
and eaid they should take whiskey or
nothing, and they refused to drink.
This caused eome words between the
men, and the two men left the ealoon.
They looked through) the window from
the outside, and Little acted as though
he would throw a flask of whiskey,
which he had in bis band, at them.
At this time William Rolfe, the bar
tender, who was drunk, without any
known reason pulled his pistol and lired
a shot through the window, which bare
ly missed the two men standing in the
window, and knocked the glass in their
faces. Shortly afterwards tho men
started home, when three ehots weie
fired at them. Kolfe afterwards told
Clancey that he thought that Hansell
was standing at the window alone, and
that he would not have fired if he had
known that Clancey was there.
Theso were all the particulars that
could be learned. Rolfe has not yet
been arrested, but there are rumors
afloat that ho made threats against
Hansell's life, and he may be taken into
custody and punished for his rash act.

The blaugrhtcr of Elephants. t
In Berlin a number of African travel
ers, colonial politicians and scientific
men have formed a "committee for tho
purpose of taming- and preserving- the
African elephant." It is computed, ac
cording to statistical data of tho ex
ports of ivory, that no fewer than from
fifty to sixty thousand elephants in
Africa are killed every year. The com
mittee say, that being so, tho time is
not far distant when the last elephant
in Africa will, says the London
Daily News, have disappeared. With
such prospect in view, the committee
have decided to put a stop to this mis
chievous slaughter. By taming and
maintaining tho last representatives of
a fast-dying-out animal world the com
mittee hope to preserve unimpaired the
enormous power the elephant is known
to possess, so that he may be of still
further use to mankind. The German
Colonial company have already devoted
a large sum of money to this purpose,
and now the colonial department of the
foreign office havn augmented this sum
by granting a liberal allowance.
