CAPTURING ELEPHANTS.
Sport That the Maharajah Occasional
Indulges In.
The enterprise is organized for the
amusement of the maharajah, and takes
place only once in about four years,
else the forest would be denuded of big
game. A small array, consisting of
about 5,000 men and perhaps three ele
phants and a few horses, take part in
the hunt, says Chambers' Journal, and
they carry tents and provisions, just
as if a campaign against a powerful en
emy were in prorrress. vhen the pad
marks of the elephant are found he is
steadily tracked down, and as soon as
he is found a trained fighter of his own
species is urged against him.
As a rule, he steadily retreats upon
ight of his pursuers, and their ob
ject is to press him so as to tire him
out. He then stands at bay. and ihe
tug of war commences. The opposing
animals butt at one another with their
heads down, and should one show his
i flanks, he is quickly brought to earth,
j When finally conquered, the wild ele
phant is pressed by his pursuers toward
water, of which he is so much, in need
after his exertions that his hind legs
can be shackled as he drinks. He is then
kept attached by ropes to other ele
phants until he gradually becomes ac
customed to bondage, and. in a few
months he is completely under control.
The sport is a bloodless one, and the el
ephants when captured are most kind'
ly treated.
AN A.v.ww.i-. ni STORY.
It Besulted in Heating the Heads Instead
of Cooling.
Necessity is the mother of invention,
and among those which this hot weath
er has called into existence chapeaux a
glace are perhaps the most ingenious
and extraord ianry. This new article
is'nelther more nor less than a top hat
fitted with, an inner apartment for tie
reception of a fair-sized lump of 4ce,
which freshens the layer of air. about
the 'head, and is' yet so thoroughly

(-hours after tte is thawed without
experiencing the slightest discomfort.
An individual who, wise in his genera
tion, was provided with one of these
head-refreshers took his seat outside a
cafe on one of the boulevards the other
afternoon, shortly after the dinner
hour. The scats on the sidewalk were
almost all taken, and he was about to
retire in dudfeon, when the waiter es
pied a free table and invited him to
ty.ke it. After he hsd freely indulged
in bocks of ?Iunich beer, it occurred to
him thnt r.o.v was the time to renew
the ice in his hat. Xo sooner thought
than (lone. He poured out the water
from the receptacle, and then noticed
that there was no ice about, whereupon
he rcrl.'.crd his hat on the ground and
called out to the v.aitcr, who usually
takes a f-cc.l deal of callitif'at that busy
hour of the c'ay. Meanwhile another
individual, whr.se curiosity was moved
by th'.; strange spectacle of water issu
ing from a silk hat, purreptitiously
took the headnrar in his hand, inspect
ed it, ai.d put it l ack, but not, as it
chanced, in exactly the same plqe.
Now, there were many top hats on the
ground at tho rrorr"?nt, for the heat was
excessive, and the bulk cf the visitors
had indulged in abtm-lant dining, and
were eager to te rcfi esni'd. v nen at
last the ice crroe, the gentleman for
whom it was intended was busy con
versing with a friend who had just
arrived, so he took the ice in his hand,
ard, without lool.ii?g under the table,
tc-mporiirily j 'laced it, as he thought, in
the watertight receptacle of his patent
topper, mtrnd'ng to arrange it proper
ly iati-r on.

interesting, and might not have ended
us abruptly as it did but for an unfore
seen accident. A neighbor of the pos
sessor of the patent hat, having paid the
waiter, leisurely donned his own silk
headgear, rope up, Ftretehed himself,
J and then cxclanted hurriedly to a
1 friend: "Tiens! it is killing hot this
evening. The perspiration is coming
, oil my head in torrents.'" "Ah, yes;
j it's enough to make a man melt where
1 he stands and leave nought but a stag
j car.t pool to mark the place he oecu-
I pied," replied the friend. "Do vou
I know what it is, mon ami?" said the
1 other, in a Ei-pulchral tone, as he slow
ly resumed his seat. "I am seriously ill
That accursed fever that I contracted
in C'reeea is on me affain, and I feel
as if-- Good heavens, look at that?"
he exclaimed, as little streamlets of
! icy cold water f owed rapidly over bis
eyes, nose and chin on to his white
pique waistcoat. His companion looked
in sheer amazement at the liorror
stricl.en face of his friend, which was
as T.le r.s a rhcot. Then he said: "We
had better drive home at once. What
ever have you been eating for dinner?
Xot mushrooms, I hope? But first take
oft your hat and unbutton your vest."
The moment the hat was removed a
!:jge chunk of bluish ice dropped into
.he wineelass on the table, knocking it
ou to the ground, where it smashed
with a loud ensh that aroused the at-
tention of the public. "Millie ton
' uerrcs!" cried the white vested indi
vidual; 'what mauvais drole has been
trying to play his practical jokes on
me? What the is thrs?" he contin
ued, looking at the patent headcover
ing; and then.ina lit of passion, he caved
in the unoffending crown against his
humid knee. "Xom d'une pipe," shout
ed the owner of the chapcau a glace,
"how dare you treat my property in
that unceremonious fashion? I will
leach you manners;" and with that he
seized upon a hat that lay near the of.
fender, and reduced it to a shapeless
pulp. "Ma's, men Deu! that's my
f roperty." exclaimed a thhd individual,
r-uttic his face provolringlj' up beside
'.hat of the other. "What right have
you, monsieur ?" "I'e is a madman,
Uo carries ices and soups in his hat
mid pockets,' exela'med another.
"Then he should be sent to Charenton,"
remarked a bystander. "No, Francois;
'io fighting," whimpered one man to his
friend, the hero of tbe hat. It was with
extreme difficulty that a free fight was
avoided, but the gentlemen duly ex
changed cards, and, having nearly lost
their heads, went bc c hatless and
.oled to bed. London Telegraph.
