Our camp was op a partially Isolated
hill, a good deal above the surrounding
oountry. We had been some days in
camp, hut had not been visited as usual
by our friends, the elephants, when one
pfteVnoon the sudden bellow ot one, evi
dently in pain, roused overyono In the
camp. A hillman presently came up to
say that two large tinkers were hard at
It olote by, Everyone turned out onto
ihs lilllsldo, from where it was easy,
ren with the naked aye, to eee -what
.was going on, while with a glass ovon
the moTementa of a startled door could
b made out
About 700 or 800 yards below the
crowd watching tho fight were two
tuslcors. The ono somewhat nearer us,
a burly, stout built beast with short,
powerful tusks, was evidently getting
much tho worst of the combat, and the
white and red furrows in his sides and
rear plainly Indicated seams run by his
antagonist's tusks. Blood could be seen
trickling down his head and shoulders.
On the risa of the hill was tho riral, a
still larger animal, possessing the ad
vantage of longer, gleaming tusks. It
was, a lost fight, and In a few minutes
the victor, with a quick rush at the
other, made a good thrust at tho side,
and though there was a svere struggle,
the tusk went its full length into tho
now beaten brute, and, using all his
weight, the victor pressed him down tho
bill, where they disengaged themselves
and prepared for another bout.
The wounded tusker's cries of pain
and rage were pitiful to hear, and
though he would have escaped it he
oould, the other kept close behind and
administered thrust after thrust, but
not In any vital part.
Presently wheeling round, they raced
and'eatne together with a crash. This
was about the only stand made, and the
smaller beast was quickly overpowered
by the more powerful victor. Tho
" thrusts bow put behind the shoulder and
into the body quickly disabled the poor
brute, and in fact in a few minutes tho
combat was at an end, the conqueror
with ono rush completely rolling his
enemy over, and by repeated thrusts into
tho proatra'e form finishing the fight
amid moanings and trumpeting.
Next morning, on our proceeding to
look for the tuskers, we found a large
herd in an exoited state, almost on tho
epot where the finish had occurred. In
. It wero several small tuskers besides tho
big conqueror of the evening before,
who seemed to instill a great deal of f oar
v Into the youngsters. Ho camo now into
tho open glade with a fine 'young female,
and as ho approached even tho' other
cows there was a general stampede out
ef his way.
Wo came on tho dead beast, which
bad been butted and rolled, after it was
killed, into a clump ot bamboos. It had
been a fine, burly animal, but was
marked from forehead to rear and top
to foot by rips and cuts. Ho measured
nine' feet six inches at the shoulder,
and the tusks, which wero taken by the
blllmen, proved slightly over 100 pounds
the p&r. The victor, which in the fight
appeared to tower over his foe, must
have been at least 10 feet high, and
htd the longest tunks I have ever seen

' A World Foil
When will the earth have all the
people upon it that it can accommodate?
That is a question which some sober
economists and sociologists have lately
thought fit to take into serious consider
ation, bringing to bear upon it the light
ci statistical research.
Before the British Association for tho
Advancement of Science, at Its recent
Meeting, Mr. Ravensteln, n well known
. statistician, estimated that, whereas the
total populatloh of the earth is now a
little less than 1,500,000,000, there is
room on the earth for very nearly 6,000,
(00,000 ot inhabitants.
That is to say, when the space on the
earth available tor the support of human
beings is fully occupied, it will be found
capable of maintaining 4,500,000,000
more ot people than it now contains, or
four times as many people as thero aro
now in the world.
This seems, at first glancd, to be very
encouraging to the human race. But
Mr. Ravensteln says it is not, because
the race in increasing, in these days of
civilization, security, and easy exchange
among tho nations, so very much faster
than it ever increased before, that this
margin will be exhausted and the world
be full In a little over 1B0 years.
By the year 3072, according to Mr.
Ilavensteln's sacculations, the earth will
bave tho 0.099,000,000 ot inhabitants
who are all that tuare is room for, and
mutt, as it were, hang out the sign,
Btendlng room only." Living room
there will be none.
It Is interesting to know that there
were other men of scienoa present at tho
meeting of tne BritlsU Association,
whan these figures were given out, who
did not at all agree with sir. Karen
stain's conclusions. They Insisted that
it is . impossible to calculate, at the
present time, what the ratio of increase
el the world s population will be agener
atloa or two hence, or what are the
earth's real capabilities for sustaining
life, Not only mar tbe ratio of increase
be sensibly altered, but the nourishing
capacity ofthe earth may bo added to

Physiognomists learn something ot
character from the mustache. As tho
form of the upper lip and tho regions
about it havo largely to do with tho reel
ings, prido, self reliance, manliness,
vanity, and other qualities that give sell
control, the mustache is more particu
larly connected with the expression of
those qualities. When the mustache is
ragged and, as it wore, flying liither and
thither, there is a laclc of sell control
When it is straight and orderly the re-
verso is the case, other things of course
taken into account. It there is a tendency
to curl at the outer ends, thero is a tend
ency to ambition, vanity, or display.
When tho curl turns upward there is a
geniality combined with a lovo of appro
bation; when the inclination is down
ward there is a mora sedate turn of mind,
not unaccompanied with gloom. It Is
worthy of remark that good naturod men
will, in playing with the mustache, inva
riably give it an upward inclination,
whereas cross grained or moroso men wui
pull it obliquely downward.

JOSRPH SJUTH'S "BRHIKO STOXH.
A aresitBabMe That the Froplitt Cretl
lleil WTfll rourons rr.ptrty.
Tiro ern ef Mormoalsm originated in
Syracus. Atout tho year 1818 a team
ster iu thf salt Works by tlio nsmo of
Joceph Belcher, found a peculiar stone,
or a Btoue that U19 oTmera claimed con
tained preat powers. Soon after Bolcher
nnd family remorod to Susquehanna
county, J?eu, -where -Joo Smith wn3 en
fjaged m gold hunter, prophet, and treas
uro hunter. Belcher called Ills find a
"Beeins stone." It was croon, with
brown, irregular spots on it, and about
uie gams shape and sleo as a gooso cgR.
In thoso days th country was Tery wild
and the psoitis Tory sunersUUous, and
strange stories wero told of lost animals
and chlldreu that wero found by tlio aid
of this stone. Tho msdua enorantu vtis
to conceal the stone in a dark vlaco ana
Belcher's littie boy could than boo from
its unnatural powers the exact location
of any object he dotirod to And. Joo
Smith heard of tkl mlnlahiro infonna
tlon bureau and soon sought out Bololicr,
secured the stone, and renewed his re
searches. In 1835 Jos had in his oniploT a eot of
men who were called money diggers, and
his occupation was that of seeing or pro
tending to seo by means of this stono,
placed in his hat aad his hat closed ovor
his faoo. In this way he claimed tho
poworta discover minerals and hidden
treasures. It is sold ho was insolent,
poorly educated, and Tory earoless in his
appearance.
About this time Smith procured n box
of plates, which it is supposed ho brought
from Palmyra, IT. T., wkera ho -red for
a short time, which ho kept carefully
locued. 'iney wero alleged to contain a
great quantity of characters and hiero
glyphics which ne one but himself ceuld
interpret. From those platss Smith, with
tho assistance of Martin Harris and Oli
ver Cawdry, produced tke manuscript;
for the "Boek ef Morns en," Tho book
was compiled In a small building on tho
Susquehanna River, aboat two inilo.1
from the Bidehill villuj of IBuiquehanna.
and was printed in lttO, the maautorint
being token to the printing1 efflco each
morning, and, together with the proofs,
etc., taken away each night. Tho first
account we have of Joe and hii followers
trying to start a colony was in tho year
1831, in a remote comsr ef Lurorno
county, where the climata soon get too
warm for them and they Tacated. Their
next colony was near FainesTillo, Ohio.
Tho old house where the manuscript was
produced Is still standlne, and is owned
by one ot tie ex-officials of Susquehanna-
m - t , i
vvui.j. pincuco Jouraat.
Old GMB anfi Sllrer.
Recently a reporter sat during hajf an
hour in a gold refiner's effleo and saw
about a dozen people corns inwifih old
gold and silver to sell. They reprosonted
nearly ovory condition ot life, savo tho
moro prosperous.
The counter was screened Ilka ono in
a bank. Behind it stood a keen oyed
young man, who seemed to possess tho
nbility to determine the quality ef metal
at a glanco. Two young men ef doubtful
appearance entered and offered for sale a
gaudy breastpin. Tho clerk glanced at
it and said :
"Plated; don't want it. "
Tho young men left, and tho clerk,
turning to me, said :
"Wo don't buy stolon property. "
The next to enter was an old man, who
offered an old silver watch for sale! Tho
clerk took out the movement and then
tested and weighed the case.
"Eighty-six cents," eaid ho.
"VhatI" almost shrieked tho old man.
"Only 85 cents? That's a swindle. GIvo
mo back that case, Elghty-slx cents for
a silver watch case, indeed!" And ho
left in high dudgeon.
"Silver watch cases contain ta much
alloy somotimes tliat thora fa very Kttlo
silver in thpm, and wo value jowohy only
for tbe bullion we can get out of it,"
Bald tho clerk, in answer to my Inquiring
look.
A young lady and half grown girl camo
in. They were both richly dressed; and
Ecemed to bo In good circumstances. Tha
young lady looked around modestly, nnd
then hesitatingly draw out of a handbag
an oxidized silver hairnln, a thin bracelet
of tho same material, and still another
littlo silver trinket.
"What are these worth, please?" sho
Eaid, passing them to the clerk.
They wero soon undtrgelng tho tost3
of tho truth telling acids and scales.
"Fifty-four cents, ma'am,4 said ho.
"Oh, myl la that all?" tho woman
asked in a tons showing great disappoint
ment. " Isn't that pin real silver ? "
"Yes, ma'am," said the unsentimental
clerk; "butltfs very light."
"Well, give me the money," sho said,
blushing. "Wo found so many protty
things in tha stores that wo f argot to
6ave enough money for car faro." And
tossing the coin which the clerk gavo her
into her handbag, aha left,
"Now, there is a case, " said the young
man. "If she had been ef tho same sort
as a good many people she woald havo
gone to a pawnshop. She probably
wouldn'-t have get any more, if as much,
1 as I gave her, but she could havo ro
deemed them. We mako only actual
purchases. We pay vory nearly Hio
full bullion value, and evorythlng wo
buy goes into the aruoible, for our cus
tomers are chiefly jewolore. Wo often
get things iu that way from pcoplo who
do not want to disgrace themselves, as
they think, by going to a pawnshop. "
Just then a seedy old man oaino in and
gave the clerk a lace pin. la a husky
voico he Eaid he had Just found it.
"Don't want It," said tho clerk.
"Honestly, I feund it. Won't you
givo me enough to got a drink with?"
appealed the man.
"No; it's brass," replied tho cruel
clerk.
"Just my luck," whined the tramp, as
he shuffled out.
And so they kept ging and coming
with gold and with dross, each seeking
to convert some eld symbol ef pleasant
regard or vanity into that which would
procure necessaries r gratify appetite.
A recant Seeteh strike cost $8,009,009.
Wily ITa Carried a Cant.
"I carry a eane from motives of
eeonemy," eaifl a young lawyer. "I
graduated from college five years ago,
and I haven't carried a stick since my
freshman year. Still, as I am not such
a fool as not to know enough to eet out
of the rain, I havo always carried on
umbrella in bad weather. As n matter
of fact I found I was losing about 13
umbrellas a year, simply because of not
carrying a cane. I never thought of my
umbrella unless it was actually rainlmr
when I got outside and could return
quick enough to get Jt before some ono
grabbed it. Ont, day I lost my own
umbrella and my wife's as welL Tho
two cost $15. Since then I have car
ried a cane on pleasant days and I never
lose an umbrella. ' Itfe a great, eooporay. "
