[j CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1905 THE LARGEST TUSKS. FOUND ON A BULL ELEPHANT IN CENTRAL AFRICA. ; One of Them Made a Load for Four Men—Both Were Brought to America—One Was Re- j turned to London. New York.—This is a picture of one ! of the two largest tusks that ever came into the ivory trade. Both came from j the same animal. The specimen here supported by four I Ivory carriers weighs 247 pounds. Think of carrying around to a very ven erable age a weight of nearly 500 pounds in tusks alone! No wonder that an ele ! phant's neck is so thick and muscular. One day about eight years ago a. party of black elephant hunters on a slope of Mount Kilimanjaro saw the animal that : was carrying these wonderful tusks around and killed it. The villagers down below were much astonished : when they saw four men carrying the ; i ivory down the mountain. They had j never seen a tusk before that was more j than a one-man load. The tusks were taken to Zanzibar, ; where they were the talk of the town. | j The bidding for them was spirited, and 1 ! naturally enough, they were purchased { for the American trade. Both of them i came to New York, but one crossed the | ocean again and is now in the British ' museum. The agent of a Berlin museum arrived 1 in Zanzibar a few days after the tusks : had been shipped, and was greatly cha j grined because one of them had not j j been purchased for him. He had left ] a sum of money there with instruc- i tions that if anything unique in the ' j museum line came along it was to be | purchased for his institution. On his return to Europe he tele- ! | graphed to America to learn what one j j of the tusks might be purchased for. I ! The answer was $5,000, and that settled | it. Berlin never expects to own one of the biggest tusks in the world. It is rare that a tusk weighs more ! I than from 100 to 120 pounds. The size ; of the tusk does not depend upon the ; age or size of the animal. Some of the | r i 11 "iji j| ij A LOAD FOR POUR MEN. | (The Largest Elephant Tusks of Which There Is Any Record.) | largest tusks have been obtained from I small elephants. These two tusks were more than nine feet in length, but the aged bull ele | phant that wore them was of only me ! dium size. The next largest tusks on | record in the African trade weighed re j spectively 22GV& and 175 pounds. No one ever hears of such ravages among the Indian elephants as has been made by hunters among the Afri can herds. This is due to the inferior ity of size of their tusks, and therefore in the value of the ivory they yield. An Asiatic cow elephant has very small tusks or none at pjl, and very few of the males have large development of ivory. They are like some men who cannot grow whiskers even with the j stimulus of hair lotions. But this in feriority has been their salvation, lor t r.-!••• i-.re no signs that they will meet the doom of extermination that threat , ens uieir African brethren. The heaviest Asiatic tusks that are j known to have come into the market J | weighed 100, 106 and 100 pouncs. The ' | largest tusk of a mammoth yet dug out j | of the soil weighed 173 pounds. So the old animal which was caught j on the side of Kilimanjaro takes th<? j palm, as iar as the records go, in ancient j ! or moi:ern times. Southampton's Success. Tidal oddities are the secret of the 1 j prosperity oi Southampton, which is j j used as a port of entry in spite of the I ! fact that under ordinary conditions j j costly dredging would be required to 1 ! make the town available as a port, j I Southampton has four tides daily in place of the ordinary two, an I scarce ly has one tide begun to ebb when a second checks its progress and gives high water again. Owing to the position of the Isle of Wight, the tides enter both from the Eng lish channel and the Solent, and j there is but an hour of ebb to each I tide. This enables the largest steam j ers to dock at any time, and has j drawn largely from Liverpool, with ita costly improvements. Costly Crown for a Statue. Seventeen hours of religious serv ices preceded the crowning of the statue of"The Virgin of the Pillar." in the Cathedral of Saragossa. Twen ty-two altars were in use serv ices being continuous at all of them, and at last the archbishop advanced with due solemnity and placed the crown upon the head of the statue, while a military band stationed outside played the royal march and a salute was fired from the fort. The ceren.ony was followed by a jollification ;.nd the perform ance of national dances in the market place. The crown wa>- presen 'd by the 1 queen mother and the ladies of the j aristocracy of Madrid, and is ilued at 51 no OHO. being costly tl n some I of the crowns worn by kings. NSmo of Cape Horn. Cape Horn was so named by Sponten, | a Dutch sailor, who first "doubled it," j from the name of his birthplace, II jorne, j a village on 'he Zuyder Zee POPULAR SCENIC ROUTE.
